Hello, I am trying to do a http post to a php script. the method works if I place it in the onCreate event of the application but gets a ConnectionTimeOut error when it tries to execute it from the service. Here is an example of my method
String url = "http://myurl/" + "?tmpl=javascript" + "&mode=recieved" + "&id=" + id; URI uri = null; try { url = url.replace(" ", "%20"); uri = new URI(url); } catch (URISyntaxException e1) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e1.printStackTrace(); } HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(uri); HttpParams httpParameters = new BasicHttpParams(); // Set the timeout in milliseconds until a connection is established. int timeoutConnection = 10000; HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutConnection); // Set the default socket timeout (SO_TIMEOUT) // in milliseconds which is the timeout for waiting for data. int timeoutSocket = 10000; HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutSocket); DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParameters); try { HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(httpGet); } catch (ClientProtocolException e) { System.out.println(e.getLocalizedMessage()); e.printStackTrace(); } catch (IOException e) { System.out.println(e.getLocalizedMessage()); e.printStackTrace(); } I have no idea why the service would get a time out error but the application activity would not. I am baffled. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
