I am trying to read the response from a page on localhost.
I have the following code:
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://myIpAddress/mySite/myFile.php");
try {
// Add your data
List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("send_xml", "true"));
httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
// Execute HTTP Post Request
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
InputStream is=response.getEntity().getContent();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
try {
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line + "
");
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
is.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Log.e(tag, "response: "+sb.toString());
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(tag, "error: "+e.toString());
}
I am getting the following response in logcat:
09-09 20:56:19.151: ERROR/ca(507): response: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
09-09 20:56:19.151: ERROR/ca(507): <html><head>
09-09 20:56:19.151: ERROR/ca(507): <title>403 Forbidden</title>
09-09 20:56:19.151: ERROR/ca(507): </head><body>

09-09 20:56:19.151: ERROR/ca(507): </body></html>
I have wamp, with PHP 5.3.5, Apache 2.2.17, MySQL 5.5.8.
Why am I not able to access files on localhost?
What is the solution?
I have a file called index.html in the folder mySite.
Thank you.
EDIT: If I use localhost/mySite/myFile.php I am able to access it, but if I use localhost/mySite/myFile.php I am not able to access it.
But I cannot use localhost because I am using an emulator and localhost/127.0.0.1 returns the emulated phone.
Hope this helps.
