I have look through most of the q/a here at Stackoverflow and through the internet for the answer before I decided to reach out here..
I’m trying call a php page on my website and I keep getting this error when the httpclient.execute is called:
08-19 12:42:33.889: E/AndroidRuntime(5340): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 08-19 12:42:33.889:
E/AndroidRuntime(5340): java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not execute method of the activity 08-19 12:42:33.889: E/AndroidRuntime(5340):
at android.view.View$1.onClick(View.java:3046)
So I read through some post and one thing I made sure that I had the
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
added to my manifest (which I do) below is a snip-it I got from the internet that I call from a button onclick event:
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://mywebsite/scripts/test.php");
try {
// Add your data
List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(3);
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("function", "1"));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("user", "username"));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("pass", "123"));
httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
// Execute HTTP Post Request
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
Log.e("log_tag", response.toString());
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
Log.e("log_tag", e.toString());
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e("log_tag", e.toString());
}

Looks like you’re getting a NetworkOnMainThreadException
Try running it on a different thread?
From the Javadocs:
“The exception that is thrown when an application attempts to perform a networking operation on its main thread.
This is only thrown for applications targeting the Honeycomb SDK or higher. Applications targeting earlier SDK versions are allowed to do networking on their main event loop threads, but it’s heavily discouraged. See the document Designing for Responsiveness. “
