HttpPost - Sending image and text with Multipart - Error

Question

I am sending image and text to server using Multi part. I am getting error as I need to send empty string in one parameter like:

HashMap<String, String> Map = new HashMap<String, String>();
Map.put("course_id",  "");

In Asynctask,

MultipartEntity reqEntity = null;
StringBody course_id = null;
course_id = new StringBody(map.get("course_id"));
reqEntity = new MultipartEntity(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);
reqEntity.addPart("course_id", course_id );

Here it is throwing exception and response is in HTML. My requirement is to send empty string and whenever I send empty string it throws exception so how would I send empty string?

ERROR :

@SaravInfern it shows html response. I tried to add headers but then also it is not working. — Bansi Doshi, Aug 03 '16 at 05:42
hey it's servers error. may be service side coding has some issue. tell your php developer html is there in response. — Däñish Shärmà, Aug 03 '16 at 06:12
@DäñishShärmà but if I add Map.put("course_id", "abcd"); like this then it is working fine as my requirement is to send Map.put("course_id", ""); like this. — Bansi Doshi, Aug 03 '16 at 06:15
@BansiDoshi the issue is with server, the server is not responsing to your parameters. Please check with your server coding — SaravInfern, Aug 03 '16 at 06:17
can't say anything about this but you should tell thing to your backend developer because if you do anything wrong it should throw the exception not html. — Däñish Shärmà, Aug 03 '16 at 06:18
@DäñishShärmà Yes they are saying that add request headers i added two headers : HttpPost post = new HttpPost(url); post.setEntity(multipart); post.setHeader("Accept", "application/json"); post.setHeader("Content-type", "application/json"); — Bansi Doshi, Aug 03 '16 at 06:19
