FATAL EXCEPTION: AsyncTask #1 and android.view.WindowLeaked

Question

I just started messing around with android studio today, and followed a working tutorial to make a user login page. The first activity shows up, but when i press the login button, the app crashes with the following error codes:

first one

9505-9538/? E/AndroidRuntime﹕ FATAL EXCEPTION: AsyncTask #1 Process: com.example.aks.mobilepos, PID: 9505 java.lang.RuntimeException: An error occured while executing doInBackground() at android.os.AsyncTask$3.done(AsyncTask.java:300) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.finishCompletion(FutureTask.java:355) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.setException(FutureTask.java:222) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:242) at android.os.AsyncTask$SerialExecutor$1.run(AsyncTask.java:231) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1112) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:587) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:841) Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Target host must not be null, or set in parameters. scheme=null, host=null, path=192.168.1.141/login.php at org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultRequestDirector.determineRoute(DefaultRequestDirector.java:591) at org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultRequestDirector.execute(DefaultRequestDirector.java:293) at org.apache.http.impl.client.AbstractHttpClient.execute(AbstractHttpClient.java:555) at org.apache.http.impl.client.AbstractHttpClient.execute(AbstractHttpClient.java:487) at org.apache.http.impl.client.AbstractHttpClient.execute(AbstractHttpClient.java:465) at com.example.aks.mobilepos.JSONParser.makeHttpRequest(JSONParser.java:110) at com.example.aks.mobilepos.LoginActivity$AttemptLogin.doInBackground(LoginActivity.java:80) at com.example.aks.mobilepos.LoginActivity$AttemptLogin.doInBackground(LoginActivity.java:53) at android.os.AsyncTask$2.call(AsyncTask.java:288) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:237)             at android.os.AsyncTask$SerialExecutor$1.run(AsyncTask.java:231)             at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1112)             at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:587)             at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:841)

second one:

I can't seem to figure out what's wrong, the localhost/index.php is accesible via the mobile browser, they are on the same wifi network.

here are the files LoginActivity:

public class LoginActivity extends ActionBarActivity implements View.OnClickListener{

EditText etUsername, etPassword;

// JSON parser class

    }

    try {
        jsonObj = new JSONObject(json);
    } catch (JSONException e) {

    }


    return jsonObj;

}

}

BillActivity is the default blank activity generated by android studio.

I can post the login.php file as well, any help will be appreciated.

Answer 1

Start your URL with http:// or https://. Otherwise it can't figure out a protocol and treats the entire URL as a path instead of a host followed by a path
