web service when calling from android usind ksoap2 returning wrong result

Question

My MainActivity.java

package com.test11;
import org.ksoap2.SoapEnvelope;
import org.ksoap2.serialization.SoapObject;
import org.ksoap2.serialization.SoapSerializationEnvelope;
import org.ksoap2.transport.HttpTransportSE;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class MainActivity extends Activity

{


private static String SOAP_ACTION1 = "http://tempuri.org/Service/ValidateUser";
private static String NAMESPACE = "http://tempuri.org/";
private static String METHOD_NAME1 = "ValidateUser";
private static String URL = ".....";

Button button1;
EditText editText1,editText2;


@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    button1 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);


    button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()
    {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v)
        {
        editText1 = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText1);
        editText2 = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText2);
        SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAME1);       

        request.addProperty("parameters",editText2.getText().toString());

        SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);



        envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request);
        envelope.dotNet = true;

        HttpTransportSE androidHttpTransport = new HttpTransportSE(URL);

        androidHttpTransport.debug = true;


        try {



            androidHttpTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION1, envelope);

            SoapObject result = (SoapObject)envelope.bodyIn;




            if(result != null)
            {

                editText1.setText(result.getProperty(0).toString());
            }
            else
            {

                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "No Response",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            }
        } catch (Exception e) 
        {

            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        }


    });    

}




}

I try to make an android app which gives a user name and connect it with a web service so it will return me true or false if the username exists or not. I run this in eclipse using ksoap2 and always returns false...even with existing username.

Maybe your problem isn't in your android code, but in the webservice. Try testing it directly in your webservice

how can i test it directly??? Please enlighten me cause i dont know much about web services – dimcode Jul 15 '13 at 14:42
Do something like http://tempuri.org/Service/ValidateUser?parameters=myusername. Test it in your web browser – Marc-André Therrien Jul 15 '13 at 14:45
also i have test this with visual studio and it runs ok...so webservice is 90% correct. Any other ideas?? – dimcode Jul 15 '13 at 14:47
Can you post what you received in result? – Marc-André Therrien Jul 15 '13 at 14:49
I run it in the emulator of eclipse and it returns me false instead of true which is the return when i run it with the visual studio – dimcode Jul 15 '13 at 14:57
Also whatever i put in the place of "parameters" in the request.addProperty methode (ex.request.addProperty("bullshit",editText2.getText().toString());) it returns me false, if that helps you to help me. – dimcode Jul 15 '13 at 15:01
