$http.post doesn't work well with Tomcat Java Servlets

[Vignesh Bhaskar]

Can someone help me? I am using $http.post and posting the data as a json object to my Java servlet residing in tomcat. When i parse my parameters using getParameter, it returns only NULL.

The request is successful if i use $.ajax post. I am using $http.post because i need to use the $scope object in my call back

We were facing the same problem here.

In our scenario, we had to do two things:

1. Add the following line to the $http object:

     headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'}

2. Use POST method instead of GET

    method: 'POST'

So in the end, we came up with something like this:

myData = {"Email": "te...@teste.com.br",

                "Password": "123456"};

$http({

      method: 'POST',

      url: 'Login',

      data: myData,

      headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'}

}).success(function (data) {

      alert(data);

}).error(function () {

      alert("login error");

});
