java.io.EOFException when reading weka trained model file

Question

I'm trying to load my weka trained model file to generate a prediction. But I get a error of java.io.eofexception when trying to do this. I'm sure this is got to do with my model file being not correctly formed. But I have used weka tool to create the model file and don't understand what's wrong.

Code

public Classifier loadModel() throws Exception {
    this.readConfFile();
    Classifier classifier;
    FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(
            prop.getProperty("Output_Model_Dir") + "/best3.model");
    ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(fis);

    Log.write.info("Load Classifier Successfully => "
            + prop.getProperty("Output_Model_Dir") + "/best3.model");
    classifier = (Classifier) weka.core.SerializationHelper.read(ois);
    Log.write.info("1");
    ois.close();
    Log.write.fine("Read Classifier Successfully");
    return classifier;
}

Log

INFO: Load Classifier Successfully => C:/Users/CRY$TAL/workspace/flysafews/system_files/best.model

PS: I have used a different model file to this. when using that file, code works except for the error of arff structure being different.

the problem is that the ObjectInputStream can't even read the stream header which consists of four bytes only. An access problem? What happens if you do `fis.read()` four times? Does it also return -1 meaning EOF reached? — wero, May 29 '16 at 12:26
sorry it's somewhat unclear to me. What seems to be the problem here? — CraZyDroiD, May 29 '16 at 12:31

You pass a ObjectInputStream to weka.core.SerializationHelper.read which expects only a InputStream and which wraps that ObjectInputStream in another ObjectInputStream which then fails.

Therefore simply pass your FileInputStream fis to SerializationHelper.read:

FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(...);            
classifier = (Classifier) weka.core.SerializationHelper.read(fis);

Then I get this error. java.io.StreamCorruptedException: invalid stream header: ED000573 – CraZyDroiD May 29 '16 at 13:17
@CraZyDroiD do you still create your own `ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(fis)`? – wero May 29 '16 at 13:35
