Android 'Webview is null' onTransitionReceived

[TomCrowder]

Hi,

I'm having a problem on Android when a transition is received when the app is not already running in the background. If the app is running it's fine. The app process starts (Task Manager shows it has a 5MB footprint) but doesn't appear to load the CordovaWebView. Here's the log output:

D/GeofencePlugin(29512): ReceiveTransitionsIntentService - onHandleIntent
D/GeofencePlugin(29512): Geofence transition detected
D/GeofencePlugin(29512): Webview is null

I'm not sure if this is an issue with the plugin or the way I'm using it but I've tried fiddling with a number of things and haven't got any closer. It's working on iOS, so any tips on the Android side would be gratefully received.

Regards,
Tom

This is just an information, you can't run javascript code if app is closed, at least on android.

@TomCrowder I did something that could help. In my case, I needed to send a request to a server each time the user enter or exit a geofence.

@ElieSauveterre you should consider using HttpURLConnection instead of Apache HTTP client as it has been removed in Android 6. See http://developer.android.com/about/versions/marshmallow/android-6.0-changes.html
