POST json and image to server android

Question

I tried to post JSON and image file to server using android.

class TaskUploadPic extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {

    @Override
    protected String doInBackground(String... strings) {

        try {
            MultipartEntityBuilder multipartEntity = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();
            multipartEntity.setMode(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);
            multipartEntity.addTextBody("json", strings[0]);
            multipartEntity.addPart("image", new FileBody(file));

            HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();

            httpclient.getConnectionManager().closeExpiredConnections();
            HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(serverURL);
            httppost.setEntity(multipartEntity.build());

            HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);

            return EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Log.wtf("upload", ex.getMessage());
        }

        return "null";
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
        super.onPostExecute(result);
        text.setText(result);
    }
}

It seems that all is ok, but after executing that AsyncTask, I got error:

What I did wrong? I've read many topics on StackOverflow, but it didn't help me.

dependencies in gradle file:

dependencies {
// ...
    compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.5.2'
    compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpmime:4.5.2'
}

Looks like it can't find a Java class that it needs `Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "org.apache.http.entity.ContentType"` — ryantxr, Dec 14 '16 at 14:13

org.apache.http.entity.ContentType is available in httpcore, so you need to include compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpcore:4.4.5':

dependencies {
    // ...
    compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.5.2'
    compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpmime:4.5.2'
    compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpcore:4.4.5' // Include this
}

I've already tried this. Error occurs during project building: Error:Execution failed for task ':app:transformResourcesWithMergeJavaResForDebug'. > com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException: com.android.builder.packaging.DuplicateFileException: Duplicate files copied in APK META-INF/LICENSE File1: .gradle\caches\modules-2\files-2.1\org.apache.httpcomponents\httpcore\4.4.5\...\httpcore-4.4.5.jar File2: .gradle\caches\modules-2\files-2.1\org.apache.httpcomponents\httpmime\4.5.2\...\httpmime-4.5.2.jar – Anton Baranov Dec 14 '16 at 15:56
Have you tried to exclude `'META-INF/LICENSE'` in the `packagingOptions`? (See http://stackoverflow.com/a/34039265/3473158) – Nico Dec 14 '16 at 16:08
I added exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES' also and it works. Thank you! – Anton Baranov Dec 14 '16 at 16:31
