Not allowed to load local resource on Android 4.4

[Vaclav Peroutka]

Hello,

I started to play with AdMob. I am able to build the test application but in the LOG I see messages below. I noticed that issue appears from Android 4.4 policy. What do I have to do to get the Ads working correctly ?

09-04 06:13:19.990: I/Ads(979): Starting ad request.
09-04 06:13:20.010: I/Ads(979): Please set theme of AdActivity to @android:style/Theme.Translucent to enable transparent background interstitial ad.

Hi Vaclav,

I haven't seen this before. Just confirming, you're seeing this with the current test app?

Hi Amy,

this is my own test application. I am getting this when I am connected to the WiFi but router is not connected to the internet. I expect that some local file should appear instead of the ad image. I can share some code or more info if it helps.

Hi Vaclav,

This error is to be expected if you're offline, because then we can't fetch the js.

Amy, is all of that log really necessary for a condition that is expected to happen (no internet connection)

09-04 06:13:20.680: E/Ads(979): JS: Not allowed to load local resource: file:///android_asset/webkit/android-weberror.png (data:text/html,chromewebdata:12)

09-04 06:13:20.830: E/Ads(979): JS: Uncaught ReferenceError: AFMA_buildAdURL is not defined (data:text/html,chromewebdata:1)

Surely the "Timed out waiting for response" warning is sufficient.
