[SOLVED] Shield Ethernet as web client : 404 error

Using Arduino Networking, Protocols, and Devices
#1

Hi!

I’m working with the shield Ethernet.
I succeeded in using it as a web server, and it’s cool.

Now I’m trying to use it as a web client.
It seems it succeeds in connecting to the web, but I keep receiving error pages, like 404 error page.

The page I want the Arduino to get is : www.antoinev2.com/0/LogDebug/page.php.
If you try this in your browser, you’ll see that :

The sketche is the following :

// application : Ethernet ; web client
// Ethernet_V0_08.ino
// 2015/03/23

//imports
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>


byte mac[] = {0x90, 0xA2, 0xDA, 0x07, 0x00, 0xA1};
char serverName[] = "www.antoinev2.com";
EthernetClient client;
float value;
boolean connecte = false;


void setup()
{
    Serial.begin(9600);
    Serial.println(F("Oh yeah !!"));
    
    if (Ethernet.begin(mac) == 0) {
        Serial.println(F("Echec configuration Ethernet par DHCP."));
    } else {
        delay(1000);
        Serial.println("connexion en cours...");
        int ret = client.connect(serverName, 80);
        if (ret == 1) {  
            Serial.println("connexion ok.");
            connecte = true;
            client.println("GET /0/LogDebug/page.php HTTP/1.0");
            client.println("");
        } else {
            Serial.println("connexion echouee, erreur : ");
            Serial.print(ret, DEC);
        }
    }
}


void loop() {
    if (connecte) {
        if (client.available()) {
            char c = client.read();
            Serial.print(c);
        }
        if (!client.connected()) {
            Serial.println();
            Serial.println("deconnexion.");
            connecte = false;
            client.stop();
        }
    }
}

The result displayed in the serial monitor :

Oh yeah !!
connexion en cours...
connexion ok.

Some facts :
I use DHCP, and DNS resolution.
My website at Planet Hoster is on a shared hosting.

Any idea ?

A virtual server requires a host parameter in the request header, like this:

            client.println("GET /0/LogDebug/page.php HTTP/1.0");
            client.println("Host: www.antoinev2.com");
            client.println("");

Hi,

thank you so much SurferTim!

I didn't know that shared hosting implies the use of virtual hosting with Apache, I'm aware of it now.
I've got to use HTTP 1.1 instead of HTTP 1.0 for my sketche to work, it seems HTTP 1.0 doesn't allow the "Host" header.

So, if somebody else needs it, the following method is ok :

client.println("GET /0/LogDebug/page.php HTTP/1.1");
client.println("Host: www.antoinev2.com");
client.println("");

Regards,
