The connection To The Server Was Unsuccessful - Android 2.2, jquerymobile, 0.9.5.1

[jrw]

Hi,

I keep getting this error message and I don't know how to resolve it.

"The connection To The Server Was Unsuccessful"

It comes up as soon as I try to load my program. I'm connected to the
internet (I can load webpages on the emulator through the browser).
If I change my index.html page so that it is just a simple html
containing some text and no references, everything loads fine.
However, when I use my actual web program, I get that error.

I number of other people have had this error as well but as far as I
can tell, it was not resolved for any of them. Any ideas at least of
what the general causes of the error are?

I also had this problem in connection with Sencha Touch. After a while, I found out about the "UNCOMPRESS_DATA_MAX" on Android <= 2.2. Turns out, the "sencha-touch-debug-w-comments.js" is about 1.5MB.

So check if you have some script file with size > 1MB.

If yes: thats the reason. See here for help: http://ponystyle.com/blog/2010/03/26/dealing-with-asset-compression-in-android-apps/

If no: I can't help you ;)

Plz let me know if this hint helped you.

I ran into this yesterday while transitioning a successfully running
iOS app over to Android. After some troubleshooting it seemed that the
problem in my case was that I am loading a very large JSON file to
populate a long list of data, and that seemed to be timing out. After
some googling I increased the url timeout within my primary App.java
file and that seemed to eliminate my problem.

Added this property: super.setIntegerProperty("loadUrlTimeoutValue",
60000);
