Your code may accept one connection, read from and write to it, and close 
it, but its not a server because:

(a) it doesn't listen for connections  

(b) it hasn't the right logical structure for accepting more than 
    one connection either serially or in parallel with an existing
    connection

(c) it stops itself without receiving a 'stop' command

If your GO server uses similar logic, frankly I'm not surprised it isn't 
doing anything useful. The logic you've written might function as a 
service under the Unix superserver xinetd, but in that case it would not 
be using a Socket: it would be using System.in and System.out to handle 
messages passed to it via xinetd. 

Anything claims to be a freestanding Java server should be listening for 
connections on a ServerSocket instead of a Socket and, whenever it 
accepts an incoming connection it should do this:

  on connect:
     if connection limit reached
        send a connection rejected message
     else
        spawn a worker thread and pass it the connection
        while connected
           accept input
           validate input
           do work
           send response
 
     close the socket
     terminate the thread
 
The server should keep on listening for and acception connections until 
it is stopped by a command: it should never terminate itself until it 
receives a positive request to do so. 

There are a variety of ways of telling a server to stop, including clock 
watching or monitoring a database, but I normally use a special control 
client that can stop the server, query its status, etc. because this 
reuses the same mechanism as its other clients and so is easy to 
implement.
