export class SchoolAppUsers {
loginApiUrl = ‘http://localhost/SchoolApp/include/userLogin.php’;
constructor(public http: Http) {
this.http=http;
}

login(username: string, password: string): Observable {
let body = JSON.stringify({ username: username , password: password });

    }
  }
}

can someone plz help out !!

Have you checked server side code?
I have come across this error before when some one leaves an echo statement in the php end.

OMG thank you sooooo much

it wasn’t any echo , i had this

    $username = $_POST['username'];
    $password = $_POST['password'];

   if($username == '' || $password == '')
     {
	echo 'Please Fill all fields!';

    } 

I removed it and now its ok , thank you

mr.surajrao

this is my server side code

     <?php

     header("Content-Type: application/json");

      $response = array();

       $username = $_POST['username'];
       $password = $_POST['password'];

                if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']=='POST')


            {

	            require_once 'DbOperation.php';

	            $db = new DbOperation();

	            $result = $db->userLogin($username, $password);

	        if($result){

		    $user = $db->getUserData($username);

		   while($row = $user->fetch_assoc()){
			
			$temp=array();

			$temp['UserID'] = $row['UserID'];
			$temp['name'] = $row['name'];
			$temp['username'] = $row['username'];
			$temp['password'] = $row['password'];
			$temp['role'] = $row['role'];
			array_push($response,$temp);

		               }

	                  } else {

		
			  $temp=array();
			
			  $temp['message'] = "Invalid username or password!";
			  array_push($response,$temp);
		
	      }	
	        echo json_encode($response);	

                 }

i checked by resteasy , its working fine regarding responses… but in ionic 2 i only keep getting the error message : [‘message’] = “Invalid username or password!”;

i dont know why !!
