MK Z, Is your problem that it does not get posted, does not get received received or does not get stored? You have to verify, what does your HttpClient actualy post if it posts at all, and what your servlet receives. Use Wireshark (or other packet snooping software) on the client side to see your request verbatim. On the server side dump into some debug log/console all headers and body of your POST. The first things to verify would be presence of following 2 very important http headers in your POST request: Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded Content-Length: <the_length_of_your_data_in_bytes> If you have those, then keep debugging. If not, add them manually to your HttpPost object on the client side. As you see, you will have to build the body, add it to your post and count the bytes.
