Applet与servlet通信

我的代码如下：
Applet:
import java.io.*;
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.*;public class TestDataStreamApplet extends Applet
{
    String response;
    public  void  init(){     
      try{
         //java.net.URL url = new java.net.URL(getDocumentBase(),"DataServletEch.class");
         java.net.URL url = new java.net.URL("http://localhost:8080/DataServletEch.class");
 System.out.println("URL="+url);
         java.net.URLConnection con = url.openConnection(); 
         con.setUseCaches(true);
         con.setDoOutput(true);
         con.setDoInput(true);
         ByteArrayOutputStream byteout = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
         DataOutputStream out = new DataOutputStream(byteout);
         out.writeUTF("hello world!");
         out.flush();
         byte buf[] =  byteout.toByteArray();         
         con.setRequestProperty("Content-type","application/octest-stream");
         con.setRequestProperty("Content-length",""+buf.length);
         DataOutputStream dataout = new DataOutputStream(con.getOutputStream());
         dataout.write(buf);
         dataout.flush();
     dataout.close();
         DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(con.getInputStream());
         response = in.readUTF();
         System.out.println("read from server :" + response);
         in.close();  
      }
      catch(Exception e){
         e.printStackTrace();
      }
   }   public void paint(Graphics g){
      g.drawString("read from server :" + response,10,20);
   }
}
servlet:
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.io.*;public class DataServletEch extends HttpServlet{
       public void service(HttpServletRequest req,HttpServletResponse resp)
           throws ServletException ,java.io.IOException
       {
           DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(req.getInputStream());
           resp.setContentType("application/octest-stream");
           ByteArrayOutputStream byteout = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
           DataOutputStream out = new DataOutputStream(byteout);
           String response = in.readUTF();
           out.writeUTF(response);
           out.flush();
           byte buf[]= byteout.toByteArray();
           resp.setContentLength(buf.length);
           ServletOutputStream servletout = resp.getOutputStream();
           servletout.write(buf);
           servletout.close();  
       }
}
运行后出现错误：
java.io.EOFException
        at java.io.DataInputStream.readFully(DataInputStream.java:178)
        at java.io.DataInputStream.readUTF(DataInputStream.java:565)
        at java.io.DataInputStream.readUTF(DataInputStream.java:522)
        at TestDataStreamApplet.init(TestDataStreamApplet.java:30)
        at sun.applet.AppletPanel.run(AppletPanel.java:373)

希望高手指点，万分火急
