DefaultHttpClient AsyncTask class timeout exceptions

Question

This is my AsyncTask class:

public class JSONParser extends AsyncTask {

    public interface MyCallbackInterface {
        public void onRequestComplete(JSONObject result);
    }

    private MyCallbackInterface mCallback;

    public JSONParser(MyCallbackInterface callback) {
        mCallback = callback;

        Context context = (Context) callback;
    } 

    public JSONObject getJSONFromUrl(String url) {  

        // Making HTTP request
        DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
        HttpGet httpPost = new HttpGet(url);
        HttpResponse getResponse = null;

        final HttpParams httpParameters = httpClient.getParams();
        HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(httpParameters,  10 * 10000);
        HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout        (httpParameters,  10 * 10000);

        try {
            getResponse = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
        } catch (ClientProtocolException e2) {
            e2.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e2) {
            e2.printStackTrace();
        }

        final int statusCode = getResponse.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();

        if (statusCode != HttpStatus.SC_OK) { 
           Log.w(getClass().getSimpleName(), 
              "Error " + statusCode + " for URL " + url); 
           return null;
        }

        HttpEntity getResponseEntity = getResponse.getEntity();

        String json = null;
        try {
            json = EntityUtils.toString(getResponseEntity);
        } catch (ParseException e1) {
            e1.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e1) {
            e1.printStackTrace();
        }

        JSONObject jObj = null;
        // try parse the string to a JSON object
        try {
            jObj = new JSONObject(json);
        } catch (JSONException e) {
            Log.e("JSON Parser", "Error parsing data " + e.toString());
        }

        // return JSON String
        return jObj;
    }

    @Override
    protected JSONObject doInBackground(String... params) {
        String url = params[0];            
        return getJSONFromUrl(url);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPostExecute(JSONObject result) {

        mCallback.onRequestComplete(result);

    }

}

I get the JSON answer in UI (in class RegisterActivity extends Activity implements MyCallbackInterface) with:

public class RegisterActivity extends Activity implements MyCallbackInterface{
...
    @Override
    public void onRequestComplete(JSONObject json) {
//hire parse and display json
...

I call JSONParser from the same UI (class RegisterActivity extends Activity implements MyCallbackInterface)

JSONParser mJSONParser1 = new JSONParser(context111);
mJSONParser1.execute(SERVER_URL+"?method=registration&user="+user+"&pass="+pass+"®Id="+regId);

The exceptions:

PP php server return write answer to the request(php logs) but app cant get it.

Answer 1

The above answer is right but surly you should be using POST instead of GET for security

DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost("SERVER_URL");
httpPost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(params));

And Set Params Out like this

List<NameValuePair> params = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("email", email));

There is good arguement for GET vs POST here

Answer 2

is JSONParser mJSONParser1 = new JSONParser(context111); mJSONParser1.execute(SERVER_URL+"?method=registration&user="+user+"&pass="+pass+"®Id="+regId) a typo or a straight up cut/paste ? You've got some unusual character next to the "Id=" bit.

And you do have the line of code causing the null, so why is it null (as tyczj points out)
