MalFormed URL exception in RMI

[D. Rose]

Hi,

My rmi client is talkeing to server using the URL like
"rmi://hostname ort/server"
I know that MalformedURL exception is thrown when no handler for protocol is found. Is there any handler for handling rmi?
I did not find one in sun.net.
How can this be resolved?

Rei,

Can yiu give some more detail. Is the "hostname" localhost or some other? Which port are you connecting to? It'd be easier for someone to reply in this case if you could attach the server class and the client class code.

I think the "handler" that you're talking about should be the rmiregistry that is listening on the host ort.
