HTTPExample on series 60 handsets

[ramiqadi]

Hi,
Im facing a problem in running the HttpExample on series 60 handsets (Im Using Nokia 6600). The example works perfectly on SDK 2.0 emulator. But when trying to run the example on the device it always produce the error (-5210 [No response from DNS server]).

This error produced each time the application issues Get or Post request on the server. For example if trying to do Get Request using the URL "www.nokia.com" the previous error produced, so i tried to do the same get request using the row ip ddress "147.243.3.37" the error (-33 [TimeOut]) produced.

Note:
My Handset (Nokia 6600) uses a Wap/GPRS as an IAP.

Is There any help regarding this issue ??, it will be highly appreciated .

Thanks in Advance

Rami

This example should work fine in 6600.

Check with IAP settings, there could be some problem in settings.
Let me know what network u are using for gprs, and also send the settings.

Hi jntu_hareesh,
Thank you for your reply

Im Living in Jordan, There are 2 networks here (Fastlink, And Jordan MobileCom). The example didnt work with both of them. Mainly im doing my test on Mobilecom Network with the following Access Point settings:-

Data Bearer : GPRS
Access Point Name :- wap.mobilecom.jo
Prompt Password : No
Authintication : Normal
Home Page :- Http://yalla.jo

Advanced Settings
Phone IP Address : Automatic
Primary Name Server : 0.0.0.0
Secondary Name Server : 0.0.0.0
Proxy Serv. Address : 172.16.1.2
Proxy Port Number : 8080

I finally get it to work,
The problem in the access point proxy server settings, it must be added to the application to make it work.

i set the HTTP::EProxyUsage property to HTTP::EUseProxy, and HTTP::EProxyAddress to the form "<proxyaddr>:<port>", and then everything goes perfect.

But the problem is that i had to hard code these values on the application, is there a way to detect them from the active connection, and then set them accordingly ???

Best regards

Did you get this worked? I mean avoiding the hard-coded proxy values.

Please help me if you have got any break-thru'.

hello ramiqadi,

Can you please tell me where exactly in ur code have u made these settings i.e HTTP::EProxyUsage and HTTP::EProxyAddress??

have you set them in the HTTP header??

Can you please give me ur code snippet since I do not know exactly what values to set and how to set....i just have a rough idea.

I done the proxy setting to run the Symbian_OS_End-To-End_HTTP_API_Example_v1_1 example on the device using CHttpFilterProxyInterface.
comment while compiling for debug and uncomment it when building for release.

void CPiaccessEngine:oPostL()
{
TUriParser8 uri;
User::LeaveIfError(uri.Parse(iUrl));

// Get request method string for HTTP POST
RStringF method = iHttpSession.StringPool().StringF(HTTP::EGET, RHTTPSession::GetTable());

// Open transaction with previous method and parsed uri. This class will
// receive transaction events in MHFRunL and MHFRunError.
iTransaction = iHttpSession.OpenTransactionL(uri, *this, method);

//Enable the following when build for the mobile to use proxy server
//Uncomment the following when compilig for phone
CHttpFilterProxyInterface::InstallFilterL(iHttpSession);

Can you please tell me, which SDK are you using and what device are you testing this example on?

yes the device is 6600 and the sdk is 8.0a S60_2nd_FP2

[jp4symbian]

Are you getting any Memory Leak Error (Application Closed, ALLOC <Memory loc> ) on exiting from the application??

I am using the same SDK , but m getting a memory leak error in the HTTPExampleClient.

[vasant21]

i am using 8.0a for Symbian_OS_End-To-End_HTTP_API_Example_v1_1
and 7.0s for HTTPExampleClient and i dont find any problem of memory leak.

vasant.

[jp4symbian]

Please do try HTTPExampleClient in 8.0a and check.
I think you will get the memory leak error, i m already getting it.


Thanks in advance...

[vasant21]

ok, i will check it and let you know.

[vasant21]

i just checked it, but i was not able to post data or connect because i dont have GPRS activated sim right now, no error otherwise.

so any specific case or sequence in which you get the error, that is while posting etc.

hi vasant,

i was just about to post the my problem, and i think i got the solution, i will try the CHttpFilterProxyInterface.

Thanks for the hint.


i also want to communicate between mobile and pc, i read you post about that and i also downloaded the microsoft sdk and i am using 6600, how exactly can i communicate using bluetooth,please explain in more detail about using that example,

Thanks once again and waiting for your reply
