Force closes with lots of error

Question

can anyone tell me, what is the problem in here? I have been trying the whole day. I am new in android and i am not good in reading the logcat either, thus, I really hope anyone could help me out. the application force closes all the time.

private ProgressDialog pDialog;

    // Creating JSON Parser object
    JSONParser jParser = new JSONParser();

    ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> eventsList;

    // url to get all products list
    private static String url_all_products = "http://xx.php";

    // JSON Node names
    private static final String TAG_SUCCESS = "success";
    private static final String TAG_CUSTOMER = "customer";
    private static final String TAG_PID = "pid";
    private static final String TAG_FIRSTNAME = "firstname";
    private static final String TAG_LASTNAME = "lastname";
    private static final String TAG_ADDRESS = "address";
    private static final String TAG_TOTALCOST = "totalCost";

    // products JSONArray
    JSONArray events = null;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_customer_transaction);

        // Hashmap for ListView
        eventsList = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();

        // Loading products in Background Thread
        new LoadAllProducts().execute();

    }

    }

use the request like that

HttpPost httpost = new HttpPost(url_all_products);

List <NameValuePair> nvps = new ArrayList <NameValuePair>();
nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("test1","test1" ));
nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("test2", "test2" ));

        httpost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nvps, HTTP.UTF_8));

response = getResponse(httpost);

I see several issues. The first I think is causing your problem. Move your progressbar initialization out of onPreExecute() to inside the class declaration

 class LoadAllProducts extends AsyncTask<String, String, String> {

  pDialog = new ProgressDialog(CustomerTransaction.this);  // move to here so you can cancel in onPostExecute()
    /**
     * Before starting background thread Show Progress Dialog
     * */
    @Override
    protected void onPreExecute() {
        super.onPreExecute();

You don't need runOnUiThread in onPostExecute() since this method runs on the UI thread. You are taking a parameter in onPostExecute() but don't appear to be returning anything from doInBackground(). There may be more issues but I would try these things first and see what you get

Knowing how to use the logcat is very important. Here it tells you that a window has leaked which I believe is caused by where you initialize your progressbar. Usually you will see a line that says something like "Caused by Null Pointer Exception" or other exception. When you find this line, the first line that references your project

 at com.spyraa.bookstore.CustomerTransaction$LoadAllProducts.onPreExecute(CustomerTransaction.java:84)

for example, will tell you that line 84 is where your error occurred. This is usually a good place to start looking. Hope this helps

ya, got you. thank you. – A.K.C.F.L Apr 16 '13 at 19:46
it helped but it shows more error. :( is it possible for you to solve it for me? – A.K.C.F.L Apr 16 '13 at 19:59
Not without seeing an updated logcat and relevant code to the new errors... – codeMagic Apr 16 '13 at 20:00
I updated to logcat in the question – A.K.C.F.L Apr 16 '13 at 20:02
@A.K.C.F.L Please post the new errors as a separate question. – thegrinner Apr 16 '13 at 20:08
Try to see what is `null` at line 94 and if you can't find it then please post a new question with new logcat and relevant code – codeMagic Apr 16 '13 at 20:14
