The Android version of one of my apps stopped loading HTML Doc pages pointing to documents through a SSL. (https://). If I remove the "s" and refresh the app, The document loads. My SSL is still good. The documents load on my web browser and they all work in the iOS version of the app. It seems to be an Android thing. It worked fine until this morning. I haven't made any changes in the control panel. Any help would be appreciated. Android version 4.0 Sel Hosted 3.0 Title Comments Hey everyone.

There's been another thread that has exposed an issue that we believe is related to an update in the Android System WebView app. I'm wondering if this is somehow related...since it seems to have occurred at roughly the same time. Are you able to run your app with LogCat enabled so you can see what the debug output is? Mark Comments Hello!

More important- how are you doing? Thanks Dave Comments Hey Mark, I'm working on that now. It's been awhile since I've been in Eclipse. More important- how are you doing? Thanks Dave

And, of course, if you can do without the SSL link to the document, that's always a quick fix. Mark Comments Hey Dave, I'm doing well, thanks! Let me know what you discover in LogCat.

Couple of things I would try: * Can you access the https link using the browser in your emulator/device? * Are there any other https pages in your app that aren't working?

Calypso Kid Aspiring developer Posts: 780 Reg: Mar 09, 2012 Upstate New Yor... 18,200	01/28/16 09:02 PM (8 years ago) Yes I can access the pages via https through chrome on the device. NONE of the pages load in the app unless I remove the SSL. I changed all 300 document locations to http and they load now. The one thing that I did notice though is that I have to refresh the app several times before the new configuration would load. Usually the Android version of this app would automatically ask to refresh by just changing data in the app. Dave Comments Yes I can access the pages via https through chrome on the device.

Personally, I think it's changes with the WebView on the Android side that's causing the issues. I know David is investigating at least one reported problem. That's odd about the app refresh. I've not heard of that happening before. I do know that the Design vs. Live mode doesn't seem to be working at the moment. Other than that, this is new behavior. Things are working now, though, correct? At least in one form or fashion? Mark Comments Hi Dave, There's something very amiss with Android lately.

SmugWimp Smugger than thou... Posts: 6316 Reg: Nov 07, 2012 Tamuning, GU 81,410	01/28/16 11:12 PM (8 years ago) Well, I don't think I can help, but here's what's going on under the hood: 01) If you have both a localFilename and dataURL, the localFilename takes priority 02) If it's a localFilename, it copies it to cache, reads it from cache as a string, and loads it. 03) If it's a dataURL, it checks for a cached version, otherwise downloads it, and loads it. 04) If you choose persistent refresh, it will always download and load it. If it's a dataURL, it saves it as "<yourAppGuid>_screenData.html" and loads it from cache as a string. Honestly, I don't think it should ever actually 'load' a URL... it writes to cache, and then loads the cache into the webView. But I've snooped through the code, and nothing I've done has much to do with SSL or no SSL; it's all just a String to us... So if it worked last week, it should work this week. I'll keep my eyes open, and if I can find anything that will help the situation, I'll let you know.

Smug- its definitely not the plugin because everything loads up fine when I change the doc location to http and not https. This app has been working fine using https for more than a year now. Definitely Android. Honostly, I'm not sure why I was using https just to load an HTML Doc anyway. There's no sensitive data there anyway. Oh well, live and learn Thanks again Dave Comments Thanks guys. I appreciate the help. I'm sure it's an Android thing.
