I have a Self-Hosted-Service(using WCF) that will run on clients machines. That service is supposed to make request to another server, get the data as XML then it returns to me that data as JSONP. Now i want to check if the service is running or not .. How can i check that ?
In my JS code i use $.getJSON with callback, so i tried to use .fail like this:
$.getJSON("http://localhost:8080/url?callback=?", function () {
alert("success");
}).fail(function () {
alert('fail');
})
but fail function didn't called when the server is not running(on chrome the Type is pending and Status is Failed)
Then i tried to use $.AJAX like this:
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
dataType: 'jsonp',
url: 'http://localhost:8080/url?callback=?',
success: function (data, textStatus) {
alert('request successful');
},
error: function (xhr, textStatus, errorThrown) {
alert('request failed');
}
});
I got the same result.
When you make the AJAX request to your localhost and /url? returns weather the other server is up or not, your script won't fail. Because http://localhost/url is online.
I'd make the /url script return JSON array with remoteHostOnline: true or false,
then use:
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
dataType: 'jsonp',
url: 'http://localhost:8080/url?callback=?',
success: function (data, textStatus) {
if (data.remoteHostOnline == false) {
alert('remote host not online');
}
}
});
You might have to tweak this script I didn't test it but you will understand what's wrong.

I use Jquery to parse an json from url: the code is like this:
function fetchdata() {
var statusUrl = '/api/desk/j/';
$.ajax({
url: statusUrl,
dataType: "json",
type: 'post',
success: function(response) {
alert('ok');
},
error: function(xhr, status, error) {
var err = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
alert(err.message);
}
});
}
everything works fine, but if the server is not reachable I'm not able to detect it: I tried to do something in error: function, but seems that the code in error is fired only if the json has an error
have you got some ideas?
thank you!
You need to test the statusText from the jQuery textStatus response object. You can take advantage of your browser's developer console to inspect this object. You can expand the properties and methods for your perusal, however you wanna use it. Just click on the returned message of the console.log() to see these properties and methods that you wan't to use for error detection.
function fetchdata() {
var statusUrl = '/api/desk/j/';
$.ajax({
url: statusUrl,
dataType: "json",
type: 'post',
success: function(response) {
alert('ok');
},
error: function(textStatus) {
console.log(textStatus);
console.log(textStatus.statusText, textStatus.status);
}
});
}
fetchdata();
I am building a Facebook messenger bot. I got to a point where I need to show a webview. This webview does some payment processing and on success, I call a Messenger SDK's function to close the webview and then do an Ajax call to continue messaging the user. Now I have an issue, the webview does not close until the ajax has finished executing i.e. sending the messages to the user. If I place the Messenger close function outside the ajax call, the webview closes but the ajax is not executed. Please how do I close the webview and then continue executing the ajax request.This is what I am currently doing:
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'JSON',
url: '/api/payment/'+userId+'/'+payRef,
data: 'userId='+userId,
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
MessengerExtensions.requestCloseBrowser();
}
})
I don't know if that can solve your problem, but you can try this:
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'JSON',
url: '/api/payment/'+userId+'/'+payRef,
data: 'userId='+userId,
beforeSend: function() {
MessengerExtensions.requestCloseBrowser();
},
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
}})
In theory, the window will close before the request init.
I don't know if I understood right, but did you try the beforeSend and complete functions from ajax?
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'JSON',
url: '/api/payment/'+userId+'/'+payRef,
data: 'userId='+userId,
beforeSend: function(jqXHR, settings) {
// Action before send the request to the url
},
success: function (data) {
// Action if the process in the url url don't throw any errors
},
complete: function(jqXHR, textStatus) {
// Action when the request is returned to application
},
error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
// I would recommend you always use the error function.
}
})
I am new to ajax and javascript.
I have the following web method in a page called people.aspx in the root of my web porject:
[System.Web.Services.WebMethod]
public static string RenderDetails()
{
return "Is it working?";
}
I'm attempting to access the web method via an Ajax call from the people.aspx page. I have the following ajax call on the click event of a div:
$("div.readonly").click(function (e) {
e.stopPropagation();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
async:false,
url: "people.aspx/RenderDetails",
dataType: "json",
beforeSend: function () {
alert("attempting contact");
},
success: function (data) {
alert("I think it worked.");
},
failure: function (msg) { alert("Sorry!!! "); }
});
alert("Implement data-loading logic");
});
I'm not receiving any errors in the javascript console, however, the ajax call also does not hit the web method. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!
Try change the type to GET not POST (this is probably why your webpage isn't getting hit). Also your failure parameter is incorrect, it should be error. Expand it to include all parameters (it will provide more information). In short, change your entire AJAX query to this:
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
async:false,
url: "people.aspx/RenderDetails",
dataType: "json",
beforeSend: function () {
alert("attempting contact");
},
success: function (data) {
alert("I think it worked.");
},
error: function (jqXhr, textStatus, errorThrown)
alert("Sorry!!! "); // Insert breakpoint here
}
});
In your browser, debug the error function. The parameters (particularly jqXHR) contain a LOT of information about what has failed. If you are still having more problems, give us the information from jqXHR (error string, error codes, etc).
I am using an ajax call like the following:
$(function () {
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'frmHistoryReportFinal.aspx/GetDataTable',
data: json_data,
contentType: 'application/json;charset=utf-8',
dataType: 'json',
success: function (responseText) {
if (responseText.d == "")
return;
parsedData = JSON.parse(responseText.d);
alert(parsedData);
count = 0;
},
error: function (xhr, textStatus, errorThrown) {
//process the error
alert(xhr);
alert(textStatus);
alert(errorThrown);
}
});
});
When I have a small set of data returned from my C# codebehind. The ajax call functions well. But when I have a json string with larger data, say 200 records returned then the ajax call gives error("Internal Server Error").
Please help me resolve the issue as I usually need to handle large datasets.
Im using the below code for a ajax call
var getRequest = $.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: Url,
async: false,
dataType: "text",
complete: function () {
$('#loading').hide();
}
});
the request is getting complete and data is also withdrawn after the data is recieved the following:
getRequest.done(function (dataDb) {
if (dataDb) {
alert('dataDb: ' + dataDb);
}
});
getRequest.fail(function (jqXHR, textStatus, error) {
alert('data error within getUsersRequest ' + textStatus + ' : ' + error);
});
I'm recieving a error that getRequest.done(function(dataDb) or getRequest.fail(function(jqXHR, textStatus, error) is not a function.
It is because your JQuery version is too old.
You can use success if you are not willing to upgrade the latest version of JQuery.
success: function(dataDb) {
}
success only fires if the AJAX call is successful from back end, i.e. it returns a HTTP 200 status as response. if any error fires if it fails and complete when the request finishes, regardless of success.
In jQuery 1.8 on the jqXHR object (returned by $.ajax) success is being replaced with the done, error with fail and complete with always.
However you should still be able to initialise the AJAX request with the current syntax. So these do similar things:
// set success action before making the request
$.ajax({
url: '...',
success: function(){
alert('AJAX successful');
}
});
// set success action just after starting the request
var jqxhr = $.ajax( "..." )
.done(function() { alert("success"); });
Last: you need to use .success rather then using .done
You can try using .success.
var getRequest = $.ajax({
type : 'GET',
url : Url,
async: false,
dataType: "text",
complete: function(){
$('#loading').hide();
}
}).success(function(dataDb){
if(dataDb) {
alert('dataDb: '+ dataDb);
}
});
