Answer 1

You've received the published item:

<book xmlns="pubsub:test:book"><title>book x</title></book>

You've received the 404 error from "computer" (your xmpp server) for this query:

<query xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#info" node="ghost2"></query>

Which hast to do with service discovery. Is it possible that you've removed some messages from the complete conversation?

Edit:

Could you try to replace:

PubSubManager manager = new PubSubManager(connection, "computer");

with this

String pubSubAddress = "pubsub." + connection.getServiceName();
PubSubManager manager = new PubSubManager(connection, pubSubAddress);
