Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ushahidi/SMSSync/issues/147

I have been working back and forth with the log in smssync for a while now but seems to get stuck at the same place.

I cant get any data when using post.

Example of line:
if(isset($_POST['secret'])){$secret = $_POST['secret'];}

And in the smssync config it has the same spelling, use of POST and JSON.

PHP error is undefined variable, and in the JSON output error message is 'no secret'.

I am lost...

Phone is Fairphone 1, android 4.2.2
Smssync is latest fr play store.

Server is Lighttp and php under android, so running the server locally on the phone.

Smssync still needs to be connected to the internet to try to sync locally, which is sad but not really a problem.

Any help?

On the server side, the way you're getting the post value is wrong. It should be

if(isset($_POST['secret'])){$secret = $_POST['secret'];}

SMSSync doesn't need to be connected to the internet to access the local web service. It has to be on the same network as the local web service.

I might have done to much programming last few nights but I can't see any diffrence between the two lines.

And smssync appears to need a dataconnwction, the log says No Active Data Connection while connecting to the local server without data connection (wan).

@markusm there is difference between if(isset($_POST['secret'])){$secret = $_POST['secret'];} and if(isset($POST['secret'])){$secret = $POST['secret'];} Look at the two carefully.

You don't need internet to post locally.

Ok. I see the difference now.
But according to both the manual on smssync and php.net
http://smssync.ushahidi.com/developers/
http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.post.php

To get form data through post method use &_POST.

In other words, your tip didnt work.

And yes, I need wan connection for smssync to sync. Otherwise the log doesnt say anything, and the app doesnt even give me fail or success.

I commented on a 4 year old thread. Landed on it as I was looking on a proper JSON schema to test get_messace method.
