How to read a local server web page
(using B4A Version 4 beta 1) registered version

if I use a port...

URL = "http://192.168.1.104:88/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1"

Java Error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal character in scheme at index 0: 192.168.1.104:88/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1

or
URL = "192.168.1.104:88/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1"

Java Error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal character in scheme at index 0: 192.168.1.104:88/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1

Using no port:

URL = "http://192.168.1.104/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1"
or
URL = "192.168.1.104/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1"

The JobDone gives the following error:

Job.ErrorMessage=
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Target host must not be null, or set in parameters. scheme=null, host=null, path=192.168.1.104/xmloc

If I use an external IP like

URL = "http://200.68.94.242/xoc?F=A&T=ERAR&M=PES"

all is ok

Thanks

It should start with http://. Can you post the code that raises the "target host must not be null" error?

 

[Alberto Michelis]

If you use URL = "http://192.168.1.102/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1" the job error is "not found"

If you use URL = "192.168.1.102/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1" the job error iis
"java.lang.IllegalStateException: Target host must not be null, or set in parameters. scheme=null, host=null, path=192.168.1.102/xmloc"


Sub Globals
Dim ListView1 As ListView
Dim Title, Link, pubDate As String
Dim URL As String
URL = "192.168.1.102/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1"
'URL = "http://200.68.94.242/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1&ES=APBR,ERAR" '<<<<<<<<this is an external server and it works ok
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
If FirstTime Then
parser.Initialize
End If
ListView1.Initialize("ListView1")
Activity.AddView(ListView1, 0, 0, 100%x, 100%y)
ListView1.SingleLineLayout.ItemHeight = 60dip
HttpJob1.Initialize("InsertNew1", Me)
HttpJob1.download(URL)
End Sub

Sub JobDone(Job As HttpJob)
Log("***JObDone")
If Job.Success = True Then
Log("lectura web OK")
Log(Job.GetString)
parser.Parse(Job.GetInputStream, "Parser")
Else
Log("error")
Log(Job.ErrorMessage) '<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<from here comes the error message
End If

End Sub

The problem is with your Local Webserver, the error says that it cannot find the webpage xmloc.

What is the result if you click http://192.168.1.102/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1 from your PC?

 

[Alberto Michelis]

Even from the same PC that hots the server or the smartphone theres no problem at all.
IE and Firefox works ok. If you type http:// leading the IP both explorers delete it and reads from the clean IP.

Another problem is that you cannot read from a port. If I use:

URL = "192.168.1.102:88/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1"
See the :88 port

I get a java exception.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal character in scheme at index 0: 192.168.1.102:88/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1

It is very important the ability to read from a port other than 80.

Thanks

AS Erel stated above, the URL MUST start with http://

If you navigate to http://192.168.1.102:88/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1 from the Mobile device browser does is succeed?

If not, I suspect an issue with the server configuration or Firewall.

I use non standard ports with HttpUtils2 all of the time so I know it is possible.

 

[Alberto Michelis]

Yes, if I navigate to http://192.168.1.102:88/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1 from the Mobile device browser it succeed.

Ok, so if you modify your code to:

Sub Globals
     Dim ListView1 As ListView
     Dim Title, Link, pubDate As String
     Dim URL As String
     URL = "http://192.168.1.102:88/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1"
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
     If FirstTime Then
          parser.Initialize
     End If
     ListView1.Initialize("ListView1")
     Activity.AddView(ListView1, 0, 0, 100%x, 100%y)
     ListView1.SingleLineLayout.ItemHeight = 60dip
     HttpJob1.Initialize("InsertNew1", Me)
     HttpJob1.download(URL)
End Sub

What happens?

 

[Alberto Michelis]

THis is the code I'm using and what happens is what I post in my lasts replys

I get a java exception.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal character in scheme at index 0: 192.168.1.102:88/xmloc?F=Sxml&S=L&M=PES&Z=1

 

[fixit30]

I give up!

For the last time....

The URL must start with http://

 

[Alberto Michelis]

Ok, give up, if you where reading my post may be you react in another way.
I dont want to bother you so... give up.

I AM USING HTTP://
I AM USING HTTP://
I AM USING HTTP://

With or without it I got erros.
Thanks for nothig!

 

[barx]

have you tried starting with just

"http://ipaddress:port" to see if that gets any errors

At least it will narrow down if the querystring is the issue

Xmloc is a folder or a file?
