I'm am building an Android application that communications with googles Service Auth using HTTP Get and HTTP Post to authenticate my google credentials and return a result.
This program works perfectly on my Desktop PC but when I move the code to an android activity and try to use it there, it fails everytime. Any ideas on why this could be? Is there a reason why a HTTP Post or get won't work in an Android app?
Yes - I have the following permission in my manifest :
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
My code in a nutshell is as follows :
URL obj = new URL(url);
conn = (HttpsURLConnection) obj.openConnection();
// default is GET
conn.setRequestMethod("GET");
conn.setUseCaches(false);
// act like a browser
conn.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", USER_AGENT);
conn.setRequestProperty("Accept",
"text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8");
conn.setRequestProperty("Accept-Language", "en-US,en;q=0.5");
if (cookies != null) {
for (String cookie : this.cookies) {
conn.addRequestProperty("Cookie", cookie.split(";", 1)[0]);
}
}
int responseCode = conn.getResponseCode();
/* System.out.println("\nSending 'GET' request to URL : " + url);
System.out.println("Response Code : " + responseCode); */
BufferedReader in =
new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
response.append(inputLine);
}
in.close();
// Get the response cookies
setCookies(conn.getHeaderFields().get("Set-Cookie"));
return response.toString();
Where the user connection is ""Mozilla/5.0"" and the URL is "https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLoginAuth"
Also, Logcat keeps throwing the following error :
