Greetings all, I'm writing a remote control app for a touchscreen jukebox pc. My jukebox has an http control mechanism where you pass commands to it like so: http://192.168.1.2:6969?playlist (returns JSON encoded playlist)
In my android app, I'm using httpGet to connect to the jukebox server, however when I try to connect, it throws an IOException and the log shows: 06-29 18:03:52.579: WARN/System.err(5348): java.net.UnknownHostException: Host is unresolved: http://192.168.1.2:6969 I'm running the app on my actual phone, not on the emulator, and I am connected to my wifi, so I decided to test with http://www.google.com, and I get the same "Host is unresolved" result. I CAN, however, connect to both url's using the browser on the phone with no problem. What am I doing wrong?
