Answer 1

This can be if you have an error at doInBackground() function and have this code.

Try to add dialog at last. At first check and fix doInBackground() function

protected void onPreExecute() {
     super.onPreExecute();
     pDialog = new ProgressDialog(CreateAccount.this);
     pDialog.setMessage("Creating Product..");
     pDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
     pDialog.setCancelable(true);
     pDialog.show();

 }

 protected String doInBackground(String...args) {
     ERROR CAN BE IS HERE
 }

 protected void onPostExecute(String file_url) {
     // dismiss the dialog once done
     pDialog.dismiss();
