post file and other data to php server

I'm experienced with PHP, JavaScript and a lot of other scripting languages, but I don't have a lot of experience with Java or Android.
I'm using below code to send file to sever, that is run without any problem, but I want to POST other data like "operation=upload_file" with file.
FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(selectedFile);
URL url = new URL(SERVER_URL);
connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
connection.setDoInput(true);//Allow Inputs
connection.setDoOutput(true);//Allow Outputs
connection.setUseCaches(false);//Don't use a cached Copy
connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
connection.setRequestProperty("Connection", "Keep-Alive");
connection.setRequestProperty("ENCTYPE", "multipart/form-data");
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data;boundary=" + boundary);
//creating new dataoutputstream
dataOutputStream = new DataOutputStream(connection.getOutputStream());
//writing bytes to data outputstream
dataOutputStream.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + lineEnd);
dataOutputStream.writeBytes("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"uploaded_file\";filename=\""
+ selectedFilePath + "\"" + lineEnd);
dataOutputStream.writeBytes(lineEnd);
//returns no. of bytes present in fileInputStream
bytesAvailable = fileInputStream.available();
//selecting the buffer size as minimum of available bytes or 1 MB
bufferSize = Math.min(bytesAvailable,maxBufferSize);
//setting the buffer as byte array of size of bufferSize
buffer = new byte[bufferSize];
//reads bytes from FileInputStream(from 0th index of buffer to buffersize)
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer,0,bufferSize);
//loop repeats till bytesRead = -1, i.e., no bytes are left to read
while (bytesRead > 0){
//write the bytes read from inputstream
dataOutputStream.write(buffer,0,bufferSize);
bytesAvailable = fileInputStream.available();
bufferSize = Math.min(bytesAvailable,maxBufferSize);
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer,0,bufferSize);
}
dataOutputStream.writeBytes(lineEnd);
dataOutputStream.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + twoHyphens + lineEnd);
serverResponseCode = connection.getResponseCode();
String serverResponseMessage = connection.getResponseMessage();
Log.i(TAG, "Server Response is: " + serverResponseMessage + ": " + serverResponseCode);
//response code of 200 indicates the server status OK
if(serverResponseCode == 200){
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
tvFileName.setText("File Upload completed.\n\n You can see the uploaded file here: \n\n" + "http://coderefer.com/extras/uploads/"+ fileName);
}
});
}
//closing the input and output streams
fileInputStream.close();
dataOutputStream.flush();
dataOutputStream.close();
What can be done?

Try this code :
private void doFileUpload(String filePath) {
HttpURLConnection conn = null;
DataOutputStream dos = null;
DataInputStream inStream = null;
String lineEnd = "\r\n";
String twoHyphens = "--";
String boundary = "*****";
int bytesRead, bytesAvailable, bufferSize;
byte[] buffer;
int maxBufferSize = 1 * 1024 * 1024;
String responseFromServer = "";
String urlString = BASE_URL + "upload.php";
try {
//------------------ CLIENT REQUEST
FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(new File(filePath));
// open a URL connection to the Servlet
URL url = new URL(urlString);
// Open a HTTP connection to the URL
conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
// Allow Inputs
conn.setDoInput(true);
// Allow Outputs
conn.setDoOutput(true);
// Don't use a cached copy.
conn.setUseCaches(false);
// Use a post method.
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
conn.setRequestProperty("Connection", "Keep-Alive");
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data;boundary=" + boundary);
dos = new DataOutputStream(conn.getOutputStream());
dos.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + lineEnd);
dos.writeBytes("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"uploadedfile\";filename=\"" + filePath + "\"" + lineEnd);
dos.writeBytes(lineEnd);
// create a buffer of maximum size
bytesAvailable = fileInputStream.available();
bufferSize = Math.min(bytesAvailable, maxBufferSize);
buffer = new byte[bufferSize];
// read file and write it into form...
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
while (bytesRead > 0) {
dos.write(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
bytesAvailable = fileInputStream.available();
bufferSize = Math.min(bytesAvailable, maxBufferSize);
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
}
// send multipart form data necesssary after file data...
dos.writeBytes(lineEnd);
dos.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + twoHyphens + lineEnd);
// close streams
Log.i("Debug", "File is written");
fileInputStream.close();
dos.flush();
dos.close();
} catch (MalformedURLException ex) {
Log.e("Debug", "error: " + ex.getMessage(), ex);
} catch (IOException ioe) {
Log.e("Debug", "error: " + ioe.getMessage(), ioe);
}
//------------------ read the SERVER RESPONSE
try {
inStream = new DataInputStream(conn.getInputStream());
String str;
while ((str = inStream.readLine()) != null) {
Log.i("Debug", "Server Response " + str);
}
inStream.close();
} catch (IOException ioex) {
Log.e("Debug", "error: " + ioex.getMessage(), ioex);
}
}

The application worked fine to download data from internet with real device but does not work to download data from internet with bluestacks

1 - I tested several applications with bluestacks and all worked fine to download data from internet
2 - I tested my application on real device and worked fine to download data from internet
3 - I tested my application with bluestacks and it does not work to download data from internet
It seems something is wrong with my application code but the point is it still worked with a real device
the code:
public class JSONHttpHandler3 {
private static final String TAG = JSONHttpHandler3.class.getSimpleName();
public JSONHttpHandler3() {
}
public String makeServiceCall3(String FileNewName,String FileDestination,String sourceFileUri) {
int serverResponseCode = 0;
String fileName = FileNewName;
String upLoadServerUri = null;
/************* Php script path ****************/
upLoadServerUri = FileDestination;
HttpURLConnection conn = null;
DataOutputStream dos = null;
String lineEnd = "\r\n";
String twoHyphens = "--";
String boundary = "*****";
int bytesRead, bytesAvailable, bufferSize;
byte[] buffer;
int maxBufferSize = 5 * 1024 * 1024;
File sourceFile = new File(sourceFileUri);
if (!sourceFile.isFile()) {
Log.e("uploadFile", "Source File not exist :" + sourceFileUri);
return "0";
}
else {
try {

while ((line = in.readLine()) != null)
{
total.append(line).append('\n');
}
Log.d(TAG, "AAAServer Response is: " + total.toString() + ": " + serverResponseCode);
//close the streams //
fileInputStream.close();
dos.flush();
dos.close();
if (total.toString().contains("Move successful") == true )
{
Log.e(TAG, "Move To Server successful");
return "Move To Server successful";
}
else
{
Log.e(TAG, "Move To Server Failed");
return "Move To Server Failed";
}
} catch (MalformedURLException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();

} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Log.e(TAG, "111Exception: " + e.getMessage());
return "Move To Server Failed";

}
} // End else block
Why?

Sorry, the problem is a flag which was previously registered in the real mobile set was checked in the download process and since bluestacks did not have that flag registered, the download process had problem

Displaying upload progress in progress dialog

I'm uploading a file and want to display a progress dialog to see the upload progress. I already included a horizontal dialog which works incorrectly, because it goes to 100% in 1 second and then it waits (because it's still uploading).
I used the following function for uploading:
private void doFileUpload(String selectedPath){
HttpURLConnection conn = null;
DataOutputStream dos = null;
DataInputStream inStream = null;
String lineEnd = "\r\n";
String twoHyphens = "--";
String boundary = "*****";
int bytesRead, bytesAvailable, bufferSize;
byte[] buffer;
int maxBufferSize = 1*1024*1024;
String responseFromServer = "";
String urlString = "https://xxxxxxxxxx.com";
try
{
//------------------ CLIENT REQUEST
File f = new File(selectedPath);
FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(f);
//calculate size of file
wholeFilesize = f.length(); //returns the length in Bytes
// open a URL connection to the Servlet
URL url = new URL(urlString);
// Open a HTTP connection to the URL
conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
// Allow Inputs
conn.setDoInput(true);
// Allow Outputs
conn.setDoOutput(true);
// Don't use a cached copy.
conn.setUseCaches(false);
// Use a post method.
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
conn.setRequestProperty("Connection", "Keep-Alive");
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data;boundary="+boundary);
dos = new DataOutputStream( conn.getOutputStream() );
dos.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + lineEnd);
dos.writeBytes("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"upfile\";filename=\"" + selectedPath + "\"" + lineEnd);
dos.writeBytes(lineEnd);
// create a buffer of maximum size
bytesAvailable = fileInputStream.available();
bufferSize = Math.min(bytesAvailable, maxBufferSize);
buffer = new byte[bufferSize];
// read file and write it into form...
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
while (bytesRead > 0)
{
totalReadFilesize+=bytesRead;
dos.write(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
bytesAvailable = fileInputStream.available();
int progress = (int)((totalReadFilesize*100)/(wholeFilesize));
//Log.i("Progress: ", (int)((totalReadFilesize*100)/(wholeFilesize))+"");
dialog.setProgress(progress);
bufferSize = Math.min(bytesAvailable, maxBufferSize);
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
}
//publishProgress(100);
Log.i("Size: ", wholeFilesize+"");
Log.i("Bytes read: ", totalReadFilesize+"");
// send multipart form data necesssary after file data...
dos.writeBytes(lineEnd);
dos.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + twoHyphens + lineEnd);
// close streams
Log.e("Debug","File is written");
fileInputStream.close();
dos.flush();
dos.close();
}
catch (MalformedURLException ex)
{
Log.e("Debug", "error: " + ex.getMessage(), ex);
}
catch (IOException ioe)
{
Log.e("Debug", "error: " + ioe.getMessage(), ioe);
}
//------------------ read the SERVER RESPONSE
try {
inStream = new DataInputStream ( conn.getInputStream() );
String str;
while (( str = inStream.readLine()) != null)
{
Log.e("Debug","Server Response "+str);
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(str);
//String status=(String) jsonObj.get("status");
Log.i("TEST", (String) jsonObj.get("message"));
uploadResultMessage = (String) jsonObj.get("message");
Log.i("TEST", uploadResultMessage);
}
inStream.close();
}
catch (IOException ioex){
Log.e("Debug", "error: " + ioex.getMessage(), ioex);
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Does someone know, how should I modify the code to see the real progress of the file, which is being uploaded? I find it strange, because I'm doing the same as the user in his doInBackground() in this thread.

Issue in uploading file/image on KitKat

Does anyone here know a way to upload an image from android 4.4 KitKat to a web server?
I have tried multipart file upload and also Base64, but none of them seems to work.
I have looked all over the internet but no luck.
Here is the code that is working until JellyBean:
public int uploadFile(String sourceFileUri) {
String upLoadServerUri = "http://hentairandom.com/el/files/try/uploader.php";

String boundary = "*****";
int bytesRead, bytesAvailable, bufferSize;
byte[] buffer;
int maxBufferSize = 1 * 1024 * 1024;
File sourceFile = new File(sourceFileUri);
if (!sourceFile.isFile()) {
Log.e("uploadFile", "Source File Does not exist");
return 0;
}
try { // open a URL connection to the Servlet
FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(sourceFile);
URL url = new URL(upLoadServerUri);
conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection(); // Open a HTTP connection to the URL

415 Error in uploading file with android

I want to upload a mp3 file to a web server and get its response that should be a string but I get 415 error ,HTTP Response is : Cannot process the message because the content type 'multipart/form-data;boundary=*' was not the expected type 'application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8'.: 415, here is my code, why does the server refuse this format?

Your code includes this:
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data;boundary=" + boundary);
and the error is staying that it's expecting Content-Type to be this:
application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8
I recommend re-examining why you're setting the content type to something other than the server accepts.
