Hi,

please make sure the URL is valid. If I open it it says it's not a valid domain.

Kind regards,

Dani

The URL included in the config.json you pasted in here and the one you just sent are different:

https://lms.cdlce.domain.edu.ng/

https://lms.cdlce.uniabuja.edu.ng

In which device are you testing?

I just tried it in Android and iOS and it worked fine. In Chromium (testing) it uses http instead of https because the following request is failing:

https://lms.cdlce.uniabuja.edu.ng/login/token.php?username=a&password=b&service=c

In browser we need to send those fake params to avoid CORS problems. If you open this link you'll see it returns an "Internal script failure".

Please see link below for screenshot.

Hi,

if you check the console, the first error it's showing is:

TypeError: Cannot read property 'errorcode' of null

This is because the app expects to receive errors as JSON objects (that's how the login/token.php script works). But it is receiving a string instead: "<br /><b>Error</b>: <font color="FF0000"><b>Internal script failure</b><br />".

Since the app is receiving a value that doesn't expect, it fails and then it tries to connect again modifying the URL. When you enter a site URL, the app will always do this:

  • Try to connect using https.
  • If it fails, try to connect using https and adding or removing www.
  • If it fails, try to connect using http.
  • If it fails, try to connect using http and adding or removing www.

Please fix that error (Internal script failure) and try again.

Kind regards,

Dani
