Service not available when I try to get address from Geocoder in android?

问题

Sometimes I get the IOException when I try to get address through latitude and longitude via the geocoder class of android.

This occurs rarely and force closes my application.

  private void locAdd(double latitude, double longitude) {
    Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(ReportActivity.this,
            Locale.getDefault());
    try {
        List<Address> addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(latitude,
                longitude, 1);
        Log.e("Addresses", "-->" + addresses);
            } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

This is the code I use to get location. Is there any issue with the code? How do I solve it?

Logcat

   java.io.IOException: Unable to parse response from server
   at android.location.Geocoder.getFromLocation(Geocoder.java:136)
   at com.pstpl.crimeverify.CrimeReportActivity.locAdd(CrimeReportActivity.java:554)
   at com.pstpl.crimeverify.CrimeReportActivity.access$10(CrimeReportActivity.java:549)

回答1:

The API documentation,

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/location/Geocoder.html#getFromLocation%28double,%20double,%20int%29

says that IOException will occur "if the network is unavailable or any other I/O problem occurs".

I don't think there is any problem with the code, since it works for "sometimes".

BTW, you are passing latitude1 and longitude as method arguments, but you are using latitude and longitude.
