I am calling a simple authentication API in my application using $http.post.
this.login = function(scope, credentials) {
var url = REST_API.DOMAIN + REST_API.LOGIN;
$http.post(url, $.param(credentials)/* convert from json to query string */, {
headers: {
'Content-Type' : 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8'
}
})
.success (function(response){
$log.info(response);
})
.error(function(data, status, header, config){
$log.error(data);
});
}
My code works seamlessly when I test it in browser using the following command:
ionic serve
But when I launch it in my phone:
ionic run -lc android
The error callback function is called immediately with response data being null:
This piece of code used to work but at some point in time it’s stopped working. The only thing I remember doing that could have affected this behavior is installing newer version of android:
cordova platform remove android
cordova platform add android@5.1.1
Another point that I’ve noticed: I am sending the http request to a web service on localhost. But if I host the webservice code on a remote server the http request will work successfully on my phone.
