HttpUtils Problem

[torpedo]

i have a problem with the HttpUtils.

i try to load the code from a internet site. i use HttpUtils as in the example from Eral

but after the code-line:
HttpUtils.Download ("Job1", URLTabelle)
the programm ends. it will never come back to the next code line in my programm.

i try to explane my problem in the german forum, but nobody can help me there. they tested my testprogramm an after that they told me, thats maybe a problem with HttpUtils.

here the link with my testprogramm in the german forum:
http://www.b4x.com/forum/germa...schreiben.html
ore in the attachement

maybe somone have time to watch in the code.

thanks for answer

Check the logs. You will see this line:
Error. Url=www.google.ch Message=java.lang.IllegalStateException: Target host must not be null, or set in parameters. scheme=null, host=null, path=www.google.ch

The Url should start with: "http://"

 

[torpedo]

thanks erel, i will try it as soon as possible

 

[torpedo]

it doesn't mater if i write "http://" or not. sometimes it will run and sometimes don't.

Hi Torpedo,

When you change the url to -http://google.ch-, as Erel already mentioned,
the fix works fine.

When you move the line

edtText.Text = s

to the Sub JobDone, just before End Sub, it does work.

Greets,

Helen.

Again you should check the logs and see why it fails.

Httutils problem

Again you should check the logs and see why it fails.

Guy's how do you resolved this problem?, i have the same problem. IN the log i see everything fine: Service (httputilservice) create - start - destroy, run well,
my file donwloading do it fine from the server, but not code run after the httputils.download method, the sub create die in that line.

Can you upload your project (File - Export as zip)?

Problem with Post

In sub Main I have the following code (where JobName is as string)

HttpUtils.CallbackActivity = "HttpWebService"
HttpUtils.CallbackJobDoneSub = "JobDone"
HttpUtils.CallbackUrlDoneSub = "UrlDone"
HttpUtils.PostString(JobName,URL,Parameters)

The applications stops in HttpUtilsSerive.ProcessnextTask when calling Http_UtilsService -> ProcessNexttask->CallSub2(HttpUtils.CallbackActivity, HttpUtils.CallbackJobDoneSub, HttpUtils.Job)

because CallSub2 doesn´t exist (neither in HttpUtils, nor in Http_UtilsService).
Any idea what´s wrong?

[Erel]

HttpUtils.CallbackActivity should target an activity. Usually it should be:

HttpUtils.CallbackActivity = "Main"

 

[ostau]

Correction

It´s not in Sub Main, it´s in Sub HttpWebService, so HttpWebService is correct.

 

[Erel]

What is the activity name?

 

[ostau]

I moved the code from a CodeModule to an Activity module.
Still the same problem.

[ostau]

Hi Erel, you are so quick with your response, I didn´t see your replay before I answered.
I moved the code into a new Activity Named HttpWebService, changed the CallbackActivity accordingly and now it jumpes into routine JobDone (as expected).
Once again, I really appriciate your Support!

Kind regards, Oskar

I'm having the same problem and finding exactly the same error message.

Here's the relevant code - any ideas?

Sub BtnLoad_Click
   datasrc = "http://caron-promotions.co.uk/"
    ToastMessageShow("Downloading Update - May take a minute or so. . .",True)
   dlfilename= "places.db"

 '   Log("Database = " & datasrc)

    HttpUtils.CallbackActivity = "Main" 'Current activity name.
    HttpUtils.CallbackJobDoneSub = "JobDone"
    HttpUtils.Download("Job2", dlfilename)
    
End Sub

Sub JobDone (Job As String)
    Dim updatestatus As String
    Dim In As InputStream, Out As OutputStream
      Log(dlfilename)
    If HttpUtils.IsSuccess(dlfilename) Then
        Select Job 
            Case "Job1"
                  '......
            Case "Job2"
                ' Handling input stream
                '!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                If HttpUtils.IsSuccess(dlfilename) Then

                    In = HttpUtils.GetInputStream(dlfilename)
                    
                    Out = File.OpenOutput(File.DirDefaultExternal, "update.db", False)
                     File.copy2(In,Out )
                    Out.Flush
                    Out.Close

                    File.copy(File.DirDefaultExternal,"workingfilename",File.DirDefaultExternal,"workingfilename.bak")
                    File.copy(File.DirDefaultExternal,"newfilename",File.DirDefaultExternal,"workingfilename")
                    '
                    ToastMessageShow("New Data downloaded OK!", False)
                Else
                    ToastMessageShow("Problem Downloading Data!", False)
                End If    
        End Select
     Else
        Button_Load.Enabled = False
        ToastMessageShow("Can't Connect to Server: Check Internet Connection or Try Later!",True)        
    End If
End Sub

Thanks!

[Erel]

Which error? What is the error message?

 

[Andras]

Thanks, Erel, and apologies for not making myself clear - it's the same error message, in effect, as Torpedo was having as the beginning of this thread:

Error. Urllaces.db.
Message=javalang.IllegalStateException:Target host must not be null, or set in parameters

John

Edit - sorry for the sticking-out tongue; how do I turn the smileys off?

Additional point - the httputils example doesn't actually do anything on either the emulator or a device here, although I can work out what it ought to do; so I don't feel that just copying it is likely to be helpful! Any suggestions there either?

Thanks!

John

"places.db" is not a valid Url.
