Android app just Crashes- Json is Null

I have checked the forum of how to correct NullPointer errors, however I am struggling, therefore could someone please offer me a helping hand. I have checked the post. What is a NullPointerException, and how do I fix it?. Still cannot find my solution please advise and help.
error message what the problem is: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'java.lang.String org.json.JSONObject.getString(java.lang.String)' on a null object reference.
json is null when I execute line 214. This also means I have a call to onPostExecute passing a null object as argument. I have debugged my app and still cannot find the error message could you please help or advise me how I can fix this from happening.

As the line suggests, you also need to check if the object
json
is null or not, if it is null then there is no point to check if it contains any object or not.
To avoid it, you must make sure that json object is not null and even if it is null you should modify the condition as below:
if (json != null && json.getString(KEY_SUCCESS) != null)
Hope it helps..

Android Application -gives error in registration, however data is still inserted into database

I have in the process of developing a registration app using Android Studios, however once users try to register the application just says error in registration and the CatLog does not give any error, as well as when debugging the app, I still get no errors.
Please can you help and tell me where I am going wrong as the code is correct as it was working couple of months ago, however since I have returned from holiday it just says "Error occurred in registration".
User data gets entered into the database however it does not allow the user to move ont to the next activity as it says "Error occurred in registration". Please can you help or advise?

The LogCat shows that the data is inserted into the database as it says a success message, however the application just says "Error occurred in registration" once I register user. As the LogCat confirms that the user has received an email and their registration details are saved in the database. Please can you help and advise, I have checked the code and it looks like everything is correct.

I am working on a app for login and registration. It should get a JSON response from webservice to read or write the Database. But when I try to register. It gives me following message:

What's wrong in my code?
Thank you!

The stacktrace doesn't help much on this case. It just helps indicating that you do some time-consuming job in main thread and you should move it to background thread.
From what that I can see, I think that the part that you should move to background thread is the DatabaseHelper one. Since to read/write database is a time-consuming job.
Hope this helps.

I think there is a simple solution but I am wasting my time for more than two hours now. Any help is welcome

First check json then check KEY_SUCCESS :
if (json!=null && json.getString(KEY_SUCCESS) != null) {

your problem is in either :
JSONObject json = userFunction.registerUser(name, email, password);
OR:
json.getString(KEY_SUCCESS)
even if you don't get the corresponding JSONObject from the userFunction or the String called KEY_SUCCESS is referenced to a null value.

I guess your problem is in Userfunction.registerUser()
json = jsonParser.getJSONFromUrl(loginURL, params);
step in here at debugging or check by code if json == null
if(json == null)
system.out.println("Error json object == null");
i think you really should find out why the jsonParser returns null at this point. Perhaps der url is not available?

Dialog box alert edittext empty and need to fill it

I'm trying put the all alert box in my code.. but still can't run... when the editText in empty or null. It will show a dialog box which is needed to be filled by user. I've already tried all the steps and all dialog alert box. But it still functional. but in my case... this is more than 3 edittext involve. Just need an opinion where should I put the code for error empty edittext and need user fill it before they push the button.
JSONParser jsonParser = new JSONParser();
EditText inputName;
EditText inputPrice;
EditText inputDesc;
// url to create new product
private static String url_create_product = "http://192.168.0.102/android_connect/create_product.php";
// JSON Node names
private static final String TAG_SUCCESS = "success";
//private static final CharSequence TITLE_DIALOG = null;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.add_product);
// Edit Text
inputName = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.inputName);
inputPrice = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.inputPrice);
inputDesc = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.inputDesc);
// Create button
Button btnCreateProduct = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnCreateProduct);
// button click event
btnCreateProduct.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
// creating new product in background thread
new CreateNewProduct().execute();
}
});
}
/**

/**

for(EditText inputName : editTextList)
{
if (name == null || inputName.getText().toString().length() == 0)
{
Context context = getApplicationContext();
CharSequence error = "Please enter a track name" + name;
int duration = Toast.LENGTH_LONG;
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, error, duration);
toast.show();
}
else {
// Building Parameters
List<NameValuePair> params = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("name", name));
params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("price", price));
params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("description", description));
// getting JSON Object
// Note that create product url accepts POST method
JSONObject json = jsonParser.makeHttpRequest(url_create_product,
"POST", params);
// check log cat fro response

int success = json.getInt(TAG_SUCCESS);
if (success == 1) {
// successfully created product

startActivity(i);
// closing this screen

}
} catch (JSONException e) {

}
}
}
return null;
}
/**

protected void onPostExecute(String file_url) {
// dismiss the dialog once done
pDialog.dismiss();
}
}
}

I actually would do this quite a bit differently... The error checking code should be a part of the Dialog onClick button. Check to see if all of the values are entered, and if they are not, put an indicator that the user needs to fill in that box, all while not finishing the dialog. Here's an example of this from one of my programs, in this case, getting a name to add to a high scores routine.
EditText input;
input=new EditText(this.getApplicationContext());
final int index=i;
new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
.setTitle("Update Status")
.setMessage(R.string.getName)
.setView(input)
.setPositiveButton(sayings_array[rnum], new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {
Editable value = input.getText();
String name=value.toString();
if (name!=null)
{
addToHighScore(name,level,score,index);
dialog.dismiss();
}
}
}).show();

Check Edittext for null before starting AsyncTask execution. just first check EditText for empty on button click first then start CreateNewProduct AsyncTask . change your code as:
// button click event
btnCreateProduct.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
String name = inputName.getText().toString();
String price = inputPrice.getText().toString();
String description = inputDesc.getText().toString();
if (name != null || inputName.getText().toString().length() != 0)
{
if (price != null || price.getText().toString().length() != 0)
{
if (description != null || description.getText().toString().length() != 0)
{
// creating new product in background thread
new CreateNewProduct().execute();
}
else{
//show alert here
}
}else{
//show alert here
}
}else{
//show alert here
}
}
});
