//Program to read from file and store it into other file.

import java.io.*;

class Main
{
	public static void main(String args[])
	{

		try
		{
			FileReader fr = new FileReader("readme.txt");
			BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(fr);

			FileWriter fw=new FileWriter("out.txt");
			BufferedWriter bw=new BufferedWriter(fw);

			int c=br.read();
			while(c!=-1)
			{
				char ch=(char)c;
				bw.write(ch);
				c=br.read();
			}

			fr.close();
			br.close();
			fw.close();
			bw.close();
		}

		catch(FileNotFoundException fnf)
		{
			System.out.println("File not found");
		}

		catch(IOException ioe)
		{

			System.out.println("io error");

	}

This says, "Ignore the important details about what went wrong. Just print out a vague message and continue on as if everything was fine."

 catch(IOException ioe)  
        {  
  
            System.out.println("io error");  
        }  

Change your catch blocks to look like this to see more details about what went wrong and where:

catch(IOException ioe) {
  ioe.printStackTrace();
}  

That's still not proper exception handling, but at least you'll be able to diagnose your problem.
