Android Question HTTP Job Does Not Complete

[dannyjon]

I have a simple HTTP job to post a file to a PHP script, which, as far as I know IS working ok.

Dim aspjob As HttpJob
aspjob.Initialize("aspjob","me")
aspjob.PostFile("http://xyz.com/upload.php",File.DirRootExternal,"filename")

There are no errors but the app on Android asks if I want to Wait or Stop.

I have checked and rechecked and can not see where I have gone wrong?

Many thanks

How big is the File you want to post?
Have you tried it with a smaller File?

You can also have a look AT the examples in my signature. .. multipartpost. ..

Tks for your reply.
The file is 2kb and I have tried other files as well.
I have tried the multipartpost script but it often (not always) returns the boolean False, even though the file DOES upload, so regretfully this method could not be used.

Maybe you want to Share your php script. Probably i can See anything unexpected

B4A Returns "Invalid File" from the PHP Script.


Sub btnSendTestFilePHP_Click
Dim pfile As HttpJob
pfile.Initialize("pfile",Me)
pfile.PostFile("http://xxx.xxx.co.uk/file_upload_restrict_save_move.php",File.DirRootExternal,"camicon.jpg")
End Sub

When calling the above URL in the browser and choosing the jpg it works file...

Here is the PHP Script:

<?php
$allowedExts = array("gif", "jpeg", "jpg", "png");
$temp = explode(".", $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$extension = end($temp);

if ((($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/gif")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/x-png")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/png"))
&& ($_FILES["file"]["size"] < 20000)
&& in_array($extension, $allowedExts)) {
if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0) {
echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br>";
} else {
echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br>";
echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br>";
echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " kB<br>";
echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br>";
if (file_exists("upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"])) {
echo $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " already exists. ";
} else {
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],
"upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
echo "Stored in: " . "upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"];
}
}
} else {
echo "Invalid file";
}
?>

HttpUtils2 doesn't block the main thread. The error probably happens from something else.
