Estoy obteniendo unConnectException: Connection timed out con cierta frecuencia de mi código. La URL que estoy tratando de golpear está activada. El mismo código funciona para algunos usuarios, pero no para otros. Parece que una vez que un usuario comienza a obtener esta excepción, continúa obteniendo la excepción.

Aquí está el seguimiento de la pila:

Aquí hay un fragmento de mi código:

URLConnection urlConnection = null;
OutputStream outputStream = null;
OutputStreamWriter outputStreamWriter = null;
InputStream inputStream = null;

try {
    URL url = new URL(urlBase);
    urlConnection = url.openConnection();
    urlConnection.setDoOutput(true);

    outputStream = urlConnection.getOutputStream(); // exception occurs on this line
    outputStreamWriter = new OutputStreamWriter(outputStream);
    outputStreamWriter.write(urlString);
    outputStreamWriter.flush();
    inputStream = urlConnection.getInputStream();
    String response = IOUtils.toString(inputStream);
    return processResponse(urlString, urlBase, response);
} catch (IOException e) {
    throw new Exception("Error querying url: " + urlString, e);
} finally {
    IoUtil.close(inputStream);
    IoUtil.close(outputStreamWriter);
    IoUtil.close(outputStream);
}
