How to solve “301 moved permanently” in android webview?

[adnan raja]

I am trying to implement foursquare OAuth based authentication in my
android app. It works fine in my Andorid web browser, but it displays
"301 moved permanently" error in Android webview. I tried to debug it
and found that it displays the error on following URL:


https://foursquare.com/mobile/login?continue=%2Fmobile%2Foauth%2Fauthorize%3Foauth_token={my_token}


But the same URL works fine on Andriod browser. So, I think there is
something need to be done with webview settings.

Anyone can help?

I can't remember the details offhand (I'll have to check my code later),
but the WebView needs a few methods hooked up to it in order to allow
you to visit URLs. This apparently includes redirects too.

Hopefully this should put you on the right path -- if not, I'll dig out
my code later.

I have solved this issue by overriding following method:

@Override
public void onReceivedSslError(WebView view, SslErrorHandler
handler,
SslError error) {

handler.proceed();

}

The API is a Level 8 API, so not available on most devices.

Also, we should not ignore SSL error messages, as it open doors to
attacks.

Foursquare should fix the certificate.

The API is available only Since: API Level 8, so no luck with the vast
majority of devices.

Moreover, ignoring the ssl error doesn't look like a correct approach
as we would be ignoring also valid errors and potential attacks.

I think Foursquare should fix the certificate.

Cheers,
Mario
