I want to upload a txt file to a website, I'll admit I haven't looked into it in any great detail but I have looked at a few examples and would like more experienced opinions on whether I'm going in the right direction.
Here is what I have so far:
DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpContext localContext = new BasicHttpContext();
private String ret;
HttpResponse response = null;
HttpPost httpPost = null;
public String postPage(String url, String data, boolean returnAddr) {
ret = null;
httpClient.getParams().setParameter(ClientPNames.COOKIE_POLICY, CookiePolicy.RFC_2109);
httpPost = new HttpPost(url);
response = null;
StringEntity tmp = null;
try {
tmp = new StringEntity(data,"UTF-8");
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
System.out.println("HTTPHelp : UnsupportedEncodingException : "+e);
}
httpPost.setEntity(tmp);
try {
response = httpClient.execute(httpPost,localContext);
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
System.out.println("HTTPHelp : ClientProtocolException : "+e);
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("HTTPHelp : IOException : "+e);
}
ret = response.getStatusLine().toString();
return ret;
}
And I call it as follows:
postPage("http://www.testwebsite.com", "data/data/com.testxmlpost.xml/files/logging.txt", true));
I want to be able to upload a file from the device to a website.
But when trying this way I get the following response back.
HTTP/1.1 405 Method Not Allowed
Am I trying the correct way or should I be doing it another way?
