Output of GET request of url says: connect failed

[Marc1200]

Hello,

I use this piece of code, but when i execute this i get connect failed error. aClient.init("GET","http://server.com/push.phpfirstname=Jonathan&lastname=Strauss"); aClient.send()

I use this link to do a get request: http://api.callmebot.com/text.php?user=@username&text=This+is+a+test+from+CallMeBot

Whats the problem?

Hi. Perhaps a "/" and a "?" between push.php and firstname ?

[Marc1200]

I will try, but that is the example link which will certainly not work, but i use the http://api.callmebot.com/text.php?user=@username&text=This+is+a+test+from+CallMeBot

I can try to insert a slash between text.php? And user

[Molock33]

No sorry, the night was very short, sorry ^^' Just a "?", no need a "/" ....

? is just for separate the filename from the first parameter, other are separate bt "&"

Okay then the url was right, but i got the error from this function:

Is this because my url is a CNAME record and not a A record?

[Molock33]

Are you sure your url is correct ? You wrote: [quote]I use this piece of code, but when i execute this i get connect failed error. aClient.init("GET","http://server.com/push.phpfirstname=Jonathan&lastname=Strauss"); aClient.send()[/quote]

Between push.php and firstname there's no sign of "?"

[Marc1200]

No sorry i would say with that, that i use that example code with my api.callmebot url

[Molock33]

Could you post more code ?

[Marc1200]

The code is part of a esphome project. The ESP8266 act as a AsyncTCPserver, it receives messages from an alarmsystem. in the yaml file i look for the received message and send a message to a phone with the AsyncHTTPclient

I updated the Library, please try it again with the newest version. Also i tried it by myself with the URL "http://api.callmebot.com/text.php?user=marc2143&text=Alarm" and it worked.

Code:

aClient.setDebug(true);
aClient.init("GET","http://api.callmebot.com/text.php?user=marc2143&text=Alarm");
aClient.send();

[AsyncHttpClient] Disconnected

If the error still occurs, check if it is an general Internet/Wifi (DNS or like that) problem? Or try a other URL and check if this works, like google.com or something.

Hello,

thanks for updating te library, it was indeed a wifi problem, i added wifi connection valus to the tcpasync8266 file now the url is working. now i have one problem more, when i do a http get request with 2 url's it won't work. Do you have a function in de library by which i can check when the http client disconnected?

the configuration is now: httpasync.init("GET","telegram url"); httpasync.send(); httpasync.init("GET","whatsapp url "); httpasync.send();
