How are we supposed to answer that without showing us what you are talking about?

I updated the question ;)

I think Josh meant we need to see your code.
Without it, we're just reduced at guessing; and guessing is not a reliable option in development.

I cant post the code since there are like 14 classes and 4 packages and 3 folders. It's too long

So post just the code relevant to the problem.
The error message already gave you which files/lines.
And please, do not post it as comment, but rather by clicking on the 'Improve question' button.

It looks like you made a call to Thread.sleep with a negative timeout value.
