Getting errors while parsing String to JSONObject - Android

Question

Hi I'm getting an error while getting the string made of JSONobject and converting it to JSON. Sometimes it works and sometimes not... I don't know why.

Here's my code. I'm trying to catch the response of a post petition:

public class DBupload {

public JSONObject UploaData(ArrayList<NameValuePair> nvp, String url) {
    try {

        DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
        HttpPost hpost = new HttpPost(url);
        hpost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nvp));
        HttpResponse response = client.execute(hpost);

        HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
        InputStream is = entity.getContent();

        BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
                is, "iso-8859-1"), 8);
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        String line = null;
        while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
            sb.append(line + "\n");
        }
        is.close();
        String result = sb.toString();

        JSONObject jobject = new JSONObject(result);

        return jobject;

    } catch (Exception ex) {
        ex.printStackTrace();
        return null;
    }

}

}

And then the jobject is returned:

JSONObject json2 = upload.UploaData(nvp,
                    "http://anonyme.mariomontes.es/geolocation/insert");

            try {
                if (json2.getInt("error") == 1) {
                    Log.i("************",
                            "You have an error while uploading Location");
                }

It's giving me those errors:

I'd recommend you do an output of the result-variable to see what it actually is when it sparks an error. — karllindmark

I second @ninetwozero suggestion, I don't think result contains valid JSON — Jon Taylor

I added an answer so that you can accept it and get it closed. :) — karllindmark
