                                   "http://192.168.1.3:3000/contactlist"; 

          protected String doInBackground(String... args) {
            String name = inputFullName.getText().toString();
            String email = inputEmail.getText().toString();
            String password = inputPassword.getText().toString();

            // Building Parameters
            List<NameValuePair> params = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
            params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("name", name));
            params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("email", email));
            params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("password", password));


            Log.d("params",params.toString());

            JSONObject json = jsonParser.makeHttpRequest(url_create_product,
                    "POST", params);


            Log.d("Create Response", json.toString());

            // check for success tag
            try {
                int success = json.getInt(TAG_SUCCESS);

                if (success == 1) {

                    Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), 
                     MainActivity.class);
                    startActivity(i);


                    finish();
                }
            } catch (JSONException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }

            return null;

        }

here is the node.js code

       app.post('/contactlist', function (req, res) {
         console.log("i am going to insert");
        console.log(req);
        console.log(req.body);
        console.log(req.query);
        console.log(req.params);

          db.users.insert(req.body, function(err, doc) {
                                          res.json(doc);
               console.log(doc)
           });
      });

Answer 1

Try this

 JSONObject params= new JSONObject();

    try {
        params.put("name", name);     
        params.put("email", email); 
        params.put("password", password);

        HttpPost httpost = new HttpPost(url);

        httpost.setEntity(new StringEntity(params.toString()));
        httpost.setHeader("Accept", "application/json");
        httpost.setHeader("Content-type", "application/json");

        Toast.makeText(this, params.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

    } catch (JSONException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        Toast.makeText(this, "Error", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    } 

//Other code

What is the output of console.log(req.body); on the server?
