Can't create handler inside thread that has not called Looper.prepare() inside AsyncTask for ProgressDialog

I am getting the following exception on making a call to a method, which eventually makes a POST method call from my async task:

“Cant Create Handler Inside Thread That Has Not Called Looper Prepare in Android” .

I am using async task to show progress dialog.

Can you please help me.

Thanks

In short: the progress dialog’s show() method must be called from the UI thread, not from the background thread. Use onProgressUpdate or onPreExecute for that.
