com.google.gson.stream.MalformedJsonException: Use JsonReader.setLenient(true) to accept malformed JSON at line 2 column 2 path $

Question

During Login time i got this error, please don't downgrade this if you know any solution please guide me. I also checked different stack overflow post but they all are talking about trim the string or other solution with retrofit but i can't solve it. I use volley.

My Json File:-

{
  "error": false,
  "user": [
    {
      "user_id": "123",
      "customer_name": "Abc",
      "email": "[email protected]",
      "salt": "123abc",
      "phone": "1234567890",
      "address": "Enter Address",
      "postal_code": "1234"
    }
  ]
}

This is my Java Class :-

@Override
    protected String doInBackground(Boolean... booleen) {
        ExampleApi exampleApi = new ExampleApi();
        LoginUser result;
        try {
            result = exampleApi.loginPost(sharedPreferences.getString("abc_id", ""), semail, fcmToken, spassword);
            Gson gson = new Gson();                           
            String json = gson.toJson(result);
            JSONObject jObj = new JSONObject(json);
            Log.e("result1", String.valueOf(jObj));
            if (jObj.getString("error").equalsIgnoreCase("false")) {
                JSONArray jsonArray = jObj.getJSONArray("user");
                JSONObject jsonObject1 = jsonArray.getJSONObject(0);
                 return "true";
                 }else {
                String errormsg = jObj.getString("error_msg");
                return errormsg;
            }
            } catch (ApiException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            Log.e("error", e.toString());
        } catch (JSONException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            }
            }

Solution

Can you try initializing Gson as below

Gson gson = new GsonBuilder()
        .setLenient()
        .create();

Possibly there could be an issue in the expected JSON.

Can you edit question and post LoginUser class.

[Md. Asaduzzaman]

Need to investigate loginPost and LoginUser. Can you add those?

I also use this way but it's also not working:- Gson gson = new Gson(); String result1 = String.valueOf(result); JsonReader reader = new JsonReader(new StringReader(result1)); reader.setLenient(true); String json = gson.fromJson(reader, UserInfo.class); JSONObject jObj = new JSONObject(json);

can you post the error log?

There can be issue in response content type. It should beapplication/json

[Amit Sharma]

Thank u for replies, but it's already application/json ("accept: application/json") @Vir Rajpurohit
