I do not know what I am doing wrong, but I cannot access a REST API using the POST method in Java with Json parameters.
Each time I run the program, I receive Java.net.SocketException - Connection Reset.
I tried to access the API from PHP, and it worked.
Code: https://github.com/BobTheProgrammer/Question/blob/master/POST
try this one
public static void HttpPost() {
try {
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(
"https://api.website.net/auth/token");
StringEntity input = new StringEntity("{\"auth\":{\"user\":{\"id\":\"bla\",\"password\":\"bla\"}\"method\":\"user\",\"website\":\"http://website.net/\"}}");
post.setEntity(input);
HttpResponse response = client.execute(post);
BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
response.getEntity().getContent()));
String line = "";
while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
There is a problem with the JSON syntax in your source code in line number 55, you have missed a comma after the user object.
Replace this line
String urlParameters = "{\"auth\":{\"user\":{\"id\":\"bla\",\"password\":\"bla\"}\"method\":\"user\",\"website\":\"http://website.net/\"}}";
with this one(added a comma after the user object before method)
String urlParameters = "{\"auth\":{\"user\":{\"id\":\"bla\",\"password\":\"bla\"},\"method\":\"user\",\"website\":\"http://website.net/\"}}";
