Send json object to local php server using HttpURLConnection - php

Question

I am trying to send json object in android to local php server(XAMPP).
Here is my php script which recieves that object.
<?php
$response = array();
if (isset(($_POST['PNR_NO'])&&($_POST['Status'])&&($_POST['update_time']))){
$PNR_NO = $_POST['PNR_NO'];
$Status = $_POST['Status'];
$update_time = $_POST['update_time'];
// include db connect class
require_once __DIR__ . '/db_connect.php';
// connecting to db
$db = new DB_CONNECT();
// mysql inserting a new row
$result = mysql_query("INSERT INTO pnr_database(PNR_NO, Status,update_time) VALUES('$PNR_NO', '$Status', '$update_time')");
// check if row inserted or not
if ($result) {
// successfully inserted into database
$response["success"] = 1;
$response["message"] = "Product successfully created.";
// echoing JSON response
echo json_encode($response);
}
else {
// failed to insert row
$response["success"] = 0;
$response["message"] = "Oops! An error occurred.";
// echoing JSON response
echo json_encode($response);
}
}
else {
$response["success"] = 0;
$response["message"] = "Required field(s) is missing";
echo json_encode($response);
}?>
And the java code that i am using is :
#Override
protected Void doInBackground(String... urls) {
OutputStream os;
HttpURLConnection conn = null;
try {
//constants
String pnr = "1234";
String stat = "WC12";
String updTime = "13:20";
Log.i("aaaaa", "Started");
URL url = new URL(urls[0]);
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject();
jsonObject.put("PNR_NO",pnr );
jsonObject.put("Status", stat);
jsonObject.put("update_time", updTime);
String message = jsonObject.toString();
System.out.println(message);
conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
conn.setReadTimeout(10000 /*milliseconds*/);
conn.setConnectTimeout(15000 /* milliseconds */);
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
conn.setDoInput(true);
conn.setDoOutput(true);
conn.setFixedLengthStreamingMode(message.getBytes().length);
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/json;charset=utf-8");
conn.setRequestProperty("X-Requested-With", "XMLHttpRequest");
//open
conn.connect();
//setup send
os = new BufferedOutputStream(conn.getOutputStream());
os.write(message.getBytes());
Log.i("aaaaa","ended");
//clean up
os.flush();
}
catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (JSONException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
finally {
//clean up
/*try {
os.close();
is.close();
}
catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
*/
conn.disconnect();
}
return null;
}
Basically I want to send data to my php server where I have created a database which has a table named pnr_database and the sent data should get stored in that table.I don't want any response from server.
But my code is not working...
I tested my php script from a html form where i was sending data to server... In that case php script was working fine and data was getting stored in database But i am not able to make it work in android.

This might be a little late answer. But the JSON you receive in php is encoded so you need to decode it as such in your if clause:
$decoded = json_decode($_POST, true); //this will return an array
$PNR_NO = $decoded['PNR_NO'];
$Status = $decoded['Status'];
$update_time = $decoded['update_time'];
Here you can enter the columns to your table.
