Using Arduino to send data to my website

Community support
#1

I have read several posts here on the above subject and tried some of the suggestions but i still have no success sending data from Arduino to my website.

I am sending to arduino.php which is in my public_html folder. Here is my PHP code:

<?php

$value = $_GET["value"];
echo 'Data received from Arduino =' .$value;

?>

Here is the Arduino code:

sendToWifi("AT+CIPSTART=\"TCP\",\"ssegu2.000webhostapp.com\",80",1000);
sendToWifi("AT+CIPSEND=63",100);
sendToWifi("GET https://ssegu2.000webhostapp.com/arduino.php?value=martin",1000);
sendToWifi("AT+CIPCLOSE",100);

Here is the response i get on my serial monitor:

Sent command to ESP8266-01: AT+CIPSTART=“TCP”,“ssegu2.000webhostapp.com”,80
Response from ESP8266-01: CONNECT

This entire exact setup works perfectly on the server on my local machine but no on my 000webhost website:worried::weary:

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi @ssegu2!

000webhost does not block GET/POST requests based on certain criteria.

Try using HTTP instead of HTTPS: http://ssegu2.000webhostapp.com/arduino.php?value=martin

Hello teodor. Thanx for your prompt response. I have tried your suggestion

When I type the url

http://ssegu2.000webhostapp.com/arduino.php?value=martin
directly into my web browser, it works - so my php side is surely ok:grin:
Any other suggestions please or can any one here share Arduino code that has worked?
Thanx.

Maybe it is being received but just echoed? You cannot know if it was received if you just echo it :wink:
