sorry can't comment but what you getting at post execute from background task is file_url as string which is your param at on post execute......i think if you are getting result all params like first name ,lastName etc then you needed to pass jsonObject at onpost Execute
so you can parse at onPostExecute...your jsonResult and display it in textbox
Problem is in you current code is
txtFname.setText("Firstname: " + firstname);
in which firstName is from
String firstname = jb.getString("firstname");
JSONObject jb= user.getJSONObject(0);
JSONArray user = hay.getJSONArray("user");
JSONObject hay = new JSONObject ((Map) json);
JSONObject json = null;
i have reversed it so you can find problem here json is null so here is problem and pls try logging at each point and let we know so we and you can have exact idea....or give us json format...

the problem is with your this code segment:
JSONObject json = null;
JSONObject hay = new JSONObject((Map) json);
JSONArray user = hay.getJSONArray("user");
JSONObject jb = user.getJSONObject(0);
String firstname = jb.getString("firstname");
String middlename = jb.getString("middlename");
String lastname = jb.getString("lastname");
here what you are doing is: making another JSONObject as
JSONObject json = null;
that is creating a variable with local scope, the local variable will have more priority than global, that you understood. actually you need the json which is created from doInBackgrounnd(). so pass the json from doInBackground to onPostExecute: it is simple,
change the statements:
return json.getString(TAG_MESSAGE); => return json;
return json.getString(TAG_MESSAGE); => return json;
also change the type of doInBackground to JSONObject and avoid making a new local JSONObject and trying to get datafrom that (bcz it is null you initialized with).
JSONObject json = null; //remove this
JSONObject hay = new JSONObject((Map) json); //remove this
JSONArray user = hay.getJSONArray("user"); // change hay to json
also change the
protected void onPostExecute(String file_url)// to protected void onPostExecute(JSONObject json)

here is your changed code, let me know what you are getting if some errors.

Android & WAMP: Error parsing data org.json.JSONException: Value <br of type java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject

Hi I'm reading a lot at the moment about connecting my Android Device to a WAMP Server but whit this tutorial I'm getting an annoying error regarding JSON. I use Json to tranfers messages between the server and the device.
It says : Error parsing data org.json.JSONException: Value <br of type java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject

As I said, the thing is that Value <br is quite strange
Thanks in advance and for your time.

I had this problem too. in my case its related to the JSONObject. you read data from the database and store them in json object. but you have to pass it as a string. consider that i have a JSONObject named json and i am using it to store strings red from table.then i use json.tostring to convert it to string and pass it to other object to use at the return statement so when i return the object a string is returned not an object. this worked for me.
jObj = new JSONObject(json.toString());

I can't retrieve data from Mysql database to Android application

And this is the PHP code:
<?php
// array for JSON response

// include db connect class
require_once __DIR__ . '/db_connect.php';
// connecting to db
$db = new DB_CONNECT();
// check for post data
if (isset($_GET["sid"])) {
$sid = $_GET['sid'];
// get a students from student table
$result = mysql_query("SELECT *FROM student WHERE sid = $sid");
if (!empty($result)) {
// check for empty result
if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
$result = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$students = array();
$students["sid"] = $result["sid"];
$students["firstname"] = $result["firstname"];
$students["lastname"] = $result["lastname"];
$students["coursecode"] = $result["coursecode"];
$students["phonenumber"] = $result["phonenumber"];
$students["email"] = $result["email"];
// success
$response["success"] = 1;
// user node
$response["students"] = array();
array_push($response["students"], $students);
// echoing JSON response
echo json_encode($response);
} else {
// no student found
$response["success"] = 0;
$response["message"] = "No student found";
// echo no users JSON
echo json_encode($response);
}
} else {
// no student found
$response["success"] = 0;
$response["message"] = "No student found";
// echo no users JSON
echo json_encode($response);
}
} else {
// required field is missing
$response["success"] = 0;
$response["message"] = "Required field(s) is missing";
// echoing JSON response
echo json_encode($response);
}
?>
my question is: what is the problem that cause the application to display the message "Student not found" every time when i try to retrieve the data from Mysql database?
Thank you.

There is a missing space in your SQL query. It should be SELECT * FROM student WHERE sid = $sid
