I am attempting to run an open source application on my computer that connects an android application to a WAMP server.
This application definitely works as a colleague of mine can run it on their computer. However, I cannot get it to run on mine.
The following code is from an activity that attempts to register a user so they can then log in. However I get a logcat error when I attempt to run it. What is the issue?
I have connected my WAMP server correctly (Icon is green) and also created the database within MYSQL. I know that this is working as I can populate the MYSQL database from a PHP script. However I cannot seem to connect it to an android application.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have tried all that I can think of in order to solve it.

//Using die isn't a very good practice, you may want to look into

//already a user with the username specificed in the form. ":user" is just
//a blank variable that we will change before we execute the query. We
//do it this way to increase security, and defend against sql injections
$query = " SELECT 1 FROM users WHERE username = :user";

//If we have made it here without dying, then we are in the clear to
