can't send 8266 variable to PHP file

Hello !

i've read numerous threads on this topic, but, unfortunately, i can't get the data from the 8266 to reach the PHP file on the server.

I'm using the ESP8266-01, it connects to the network well (WiFiManager).

The code is supposed to send a string variable (data) to a PHP file: datacollector.php on the subdomain : "8266.morgulis.net". (the PHP file creates an HTML file - this works, only this...)

I've tried changing the permissions of the public_html folder (to be 777-RWX) and the permissions of the PHP file, but i guess that wasn't the problem.

here is the code, any help will be highly appreciated!

The Sketch:

#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>       
#include <WiFiClient.h>
#include <WiFiManager.h>       

WiFiClient client;

const char server_name[] = "www.domain.com";

void setup() {

    Serial.begin(115200);    
   
    WiFiManager wifiManager;
   
    wifiManager.autoConnect("AutoConnectAP");
    
    Serial.println("connected...)");

    int V1 = 1234;
    int V2 = 5678; 
    String data = "V1=" + (String) V1 + "&V2=" + (String) V2 ;        

        Serial.println("\nStarting connection to server..."); 
         
        if (client.connect(server_name, 80)) 
        {          
            Serial.println("connected to server");
             delay(1000);   
             
        } //if client.connet
}

void loop() {
           int V1 = 1234;
           int V2 = 5678; 
           String data = "V1=" + (String) V1 + "&V2=" + (String) V2 ;     
           
           if (client.connect(server_name, 80)) 
          {          
              Serial.println("connected to server");
               delay(1000);   
              delay(1000);
                
              //WiFi.printDiag(Serial);
   
              client.println("POST /datacollector.php HTTP/1.0");            
              client.println("Host: www.domain.com");        
              client.println("User-Agent:ESP8266/1.0");
              client.println("Connection: close");                                
               client.println("Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded");    
               client.println("Connection: close");
              client.print("Content-Length: ");
              client.println(data.length());
              client.println(data);
              client.stop();
                        
               Serial.println("\n");
               Serial.println("My data string: ");
               Serial.println(data);
               Serial.println("It's size:: ");
               Serial.println(data.length());       
               delay(2000);                         
          }// if conneted to server
} //loop

The PHP code:

<?php

$TimeStamp = "The current time is " . date("h:i:sa");
file_put_contents('dataDisplayer.html', $TimeStamp, FILE_APPEND);


   if( $_REQUEST["V1"] ||  $_REQUEST["V2"] ) 
   {
   echo " Value1 is: ". $_REQUEST['V1']. "
";
   echo " Value2 is: ". $_REQUEST['V2']. " 
";
   }
 
$var1 = $_REQUEST['V1'];
$var2 = $_REQUEST['V2'];

$WriteMyRequest= "<p> Value1 is : "     . $var1 . "  </p>".
 "<p> And Value2 is : " . $var2 . "  </p>
"; 

file_put_contents('dataDisplayer.html', $WriteMyRequest, FILE_APPEND);


?>

Thank you!

I don't see where you send your

data

to the client.

You do a client.stop after the html header, without sending the body. So you never send your data.

Thanks, I added the line with the data back, that's how I had it in the first place, it doesn't send it either.

... than you do still something wrong, but nobody can help you as you don't post your updated code.

Don't forget that you need the empty line between header and body.

I updated the code in the original message.

Regarding the empty line, it should come before the line that sends the data?
Like that?

client.println(data.length());
client.println();
client.println(data);
client.stop();

noiasca:
yes, looks ok. Does it work now? When not - what response do you get from your server?

IT DOES!!!
Thank you!
