How to show error message if not getting response from server?

Question

I am populating doctor list in listview and its working fine.Now what I want that I want to open alert if not getting response from server in 30 sec. How can I do that using volley in below code. I have already check internet connectivity, but I want to check response also. How can I achieve this ?

public void getDoctorlist(final String email, final String sessionid) {

        String tag_string_req = "req_service";

        pDialog.setMessage("Getting Details");
        showDialog();

        StringRequest strReq = new StringRequest(Method.POST, AppConfig.URL_Doc_list, new Response.Listener<String>() {

            @Override
            public void onResponse(String inventoryList) {
                Log.d("++++++", inventoryList.toString());
                hideDialog();
                try {
                    JSONObject jObj = new JSONObject(inventoryList);

                    String Errorcode = jObj.getString("responseCode");
                    if (Errorcode.equalsIgnoreCase("101")) {
                        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Please Try again later", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                    }

                    if (Errorcode.equalsIgnoreCase("102")) {

                        JSONArray json_user = jObj.getJSONArray("dataList");

                        for (int i = 0; i < json_user.length(); i++) {
                            try {

                                JSONObject obj = json_user.getJSONObject(i);

                                GetSetPaln doctor = new GetSetPaln(obj.getString("companyName"), obj.getString("clientId"),
                                        obj.getString("clientIdentifier"), obj.getString("lastVisit"),
                                        obj.getString("imageUrl"), obj.getString("emailId"), obj.getString("contactNo"),
                                        obj.getString("address"), obj.getString("clientLocationId"),
                                        obj.getString("city"));

                                doc_list.add(doctor);

                            } catch (JSONException e) {
                                e.printStackTrace();
                            }
                        }
                        ad_doctor = new DoctorAdapter(DoctorList.this, doc_list);
                        listview.setAdapter(ad_doctor);
                    }

                } catch (JSONException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }

            }
        }, new Response.ErrorListener() {

            @Override
            public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {

                hideDialog();
            }
        }) {

            @Override
            protected Map<String, String> getParams() {
                Map<String, String> params = new HashMap<String, String>();

                params.put("emailId", email);
                params.put("sessionId", sessionid);
                return params;

            }

        };
        AppController.getInstance().addToRequestQueue(strReq, tag_string_req);
    }

handle that error in `onErrorResponse` . – Akash Patel Jan 12 '17 at 09:14 — Akash Patel, Jan 12 '17 at 09:14

   gson_request.setRetryPolicy((new DefaultRetryPolicy(
            20000,
            DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_MAX_RETRIES,
            DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MULT)));

   you can handle timeout error OnErrorResponse:

     public class GsonRequest<T> extends Request<T> 
     {
      private final Gson gson = new Gson();
      private final Class<T> clazz;
      private final Response.Listener<T> listener;
      private String parameters = null;
      private VolleyErrorHandling volleyErrorHandling=new VolleyErrorHandling();

      public GsonRequest(int post, String url, Class<T> clazz, String params, Response.Listener<T> listener, Response.ErrorListener errorListener) {
    super(post, url, errorListener);
    this.clazz = clazz;
    this.listener = listener;

    this.parameters = params;
}

@Override
protected Response<T> parseNetworkResponse(NetworkResponse networkResponse) {
    try {
        String json = new String(
                networkResponse.data,
                HttpHeaderParser.parseCharset(networkResponse.headers));
        return Response.success(
                gson.fromJson(json, clazz),
                HttpHeaderParser.parseCacheHeaders(networkResponse));
    } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
        return Response.error(new ParseError(e));
    } catch (JsonSyntaxException e) {
        return Response.error(new ParseError(e));
    }
}

@Override
protected void deliverResponse(T t) {

    listener.onResponse(t);
}


@Override
public String getBodyContentType() {
    return "application/json";
}

@Override
public byte[] getBody() throws AuthFailureError {

    return parameters.toString().getBytes();
}

@Override

    NetworkResponse response = volleyError.networkResponse;
    VolleyError error = null;
    String strerrormsg = "";

    if (response != null && response.data != null)

                volleyError = new VolleyError(new String(volleyError.networkResponse.data));
                    if (volleyErrorHandling.is_empty(volleyError.getLocalizedMessage())) {

                        strerrormsg = "SERVER_ERROR";
                        error = new VolleyError(strerrormsg);
                        volleyError = error;
                    }
                } else {
                    strerrormsg = "SERVER_ERROR";
                    error = new VolleyError(strerrormsg);
                    volleyError = error;
                }
                break;
            case 401:
                strerrormsg = "Bad Request";

                error = new VolleyError(strerrormsg);
                volleyError = error;
                break;
            case 404:

This has been already asked. Read here Change Volley timeout duration how set a fixed timeout for Volley requests.

After that you should use onErrorResponse to listen for errors and timeouts accordingly

If already has been asked than why should post an answer. you can tell him by comment that its duplicate of other post. – Akash Patel Jan 12 '17 at 09:20
because comments often pass unnoticed, and despite everything now we have 4 answers with copy-pasted pretty much the same code of the answer i linked... i did a mistake for sure trying preventing this to happen... – MatPag Jan 12 '17 at 09:45

Through the Volley RetryPolicy you can achieve 30 seconds time out.

strReq.setRetryPolicy(new DefaultRetryPolicy(
    MY_SOCKET_TIMEOUT_MS, 
    DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_MAX_RETRIES, 
    DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MULT));

In this show the error message.

new Response.ErrorListener() {

        @Override
        public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
            // Show dialog to show the error message from the server.
        }
}

Hope this help. Happy Coding.

You can set timeout in RetryPolicy

strReq.setRetryPolicy(new DefaultRetryPolicy(
    30000, //for 30 Seconds
    DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_MAX_RETRIES, 
    DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MULT));

and then check your onErrorResponse()

new Response.ErrorListener() {
    @Override
    public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
         hideDialog();
    }
}

Hope it helps you.

private void getResponce() {

    RequestQueue requestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(this);

    JsonObjectRequest jsObjRequest = new JsonObjectRequest
            (Request.Method.GET, _url, null, new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
                @Override
                public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {

                }
            }, new Response.ErrorListener() {
                @Override
                public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {

                }
            });
    int socketTimeout = 30000; // 30 seconds. You can change it
    RetryPolicy policy = new DefaultRetryPolicy(socketTimeout,
            DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_MAX_RETRIES,
            DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MULT);
    jsObjRequest.setRetryPolicy(policy);
    requestQueue.add(jsObjRequest);
}

How to show error message if not getting response from server?
