"Host not found" Error message with QHttp service

[RajeevSahu]

Hi..

I am doing an application, that fetches data from a website(Url) using QHttp service and stores data in a file in XML format.

I am able to fetch data from the link and as such the .xml file is created in current directory...but only in case of Simulator. However when I tried it on my N97 device, I am getting an error like:

Host not found

Any guesses....

Thanks....

did you remember to add the symbian capability NetworkServices that is required for the API usage in a device.

Thanks.. It's working...

We have to use

QT += core gui network xml
and
symbian {
TARGET.UID3 = 0xe854433c
TARGET.CAPABILITY += NetworkServices
TARGET.EPOCSTACKSIZE = 0x14000
TARGET.EPOCHEAPSIZE = 0x020000 0x4000000
}

in .pro file to avoid this kind of error.

There is a bug in OpenC that may cause this. More info available at:

And you should not be using QHttp as it's deprecated, you should use QNetworkAccessManager.

Thanks divanov..

I think, I should use QNetworkAccessManager, because yesterday my application was working fine with QHttp, but suddenly today it is again giving that Host not found error.

Let me try with QNetworkAccessManager.

By the way, any idea why this has happened, I have the same code with me!!!

Please note that QNetworkAccessManager is affected by mentioned earlier OpenC bug in the same way as QHttp.
