In my project I need to call a URL .
This urls, looks like: http://myip:80/increaseCounter.php
I got a Xampp (MAC) with mysql. The functionallity of increaseCounter.php, is retrive the value from the table, increase it in 1, and update it. The url I tested in localhost, pointing from another device via Chrome, and works perfect.
But know I'm trying to do just a call to this link in Android, I don't need to recover any data or similar, just call it.
I tried to do:
private void trackUrl(String href) {
HttpURLConnection con = null;
try {
URL url = new URL(href);
con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
con.connect();
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.d("APP", e.getMessage());
} finally {
if (con != null) {
con.disconnect();
}
}
}
But is no working.No connection log in xampp, and the data in mysql ,is not updated.
