web_app example "Uknown error"

[adriangalilea]

Hello,

I simply tried running the provided web_app example

When I press Send Hello world I receive "Unknown error"

I noticed in the code

$('#btn_status').text('Sending...').removeClass('ok err').show();
        $.ajax('/demo/sendMessage', {
            type: 'POST',
            data: {
                _auth: initData,
                msg_id: msg_id || '',
                with_webview: !initDataUnsafe.receiver && with_webview ? 1 : 0
            },
            dataType: 'json',
            success: function (result) {
                $('button').prop('disabled', false);
                if (result.response) {
                    if (result.response.ok) {
                        $('#btn_status').html('Message sent successfully!').addClass('ok').show();
                    } else {
                        $('#btn_status').text(result.response.description).addClass('err').show();
                        alert(result.response.description);
                    }
                } else {
                    $('#btn_status').text('Unknown error').addClass('err').show();
                    alert('Unknown error');
                }
            },

But I'd like to understand the cause as I'm guessing is not expected to happen.

I tested both in my phone and computer.

Thank you!

Seems like your API is not accesible from the World.

Hmm that is odd, the webapp was running fine. How could it be that I was seeing the webapp then?
