I am trying post some data to a url on my server, however the server is only coming back with an empty array instead of what I thought was posted. I am probably missing something, but I am unsure what.

HttpConnection oCon = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(url, Connector.READ_WRITE);
oCon.setRequestMethod("POST");
URLEncodedPostData oPostData = new URLEncodedPostData(url, false);
oPostData.append("param1", "ThisIsTheValueOfParam1");
oPostData.append("param2", "ABC123");
OutputStream strmOut = oCon.openOutputStream();
strmOut.write(oPostData.getBytes());
strmOut.close();

The connection is fine and I get the response from the server, but apparently nothing is posted. Thanks.

I am not 100% sure about it, but i guess you should not close the Stream. Instead Flush it ;)

use 'strmOut.Flush();' instead of 'strmOut.close();'

i've seen some instances whereby if you don't open up an input stream after writing out, it won't finalize the stream and complete the POST. try that and see if it works

How about calling getReponse() (before calling close) - this flushes the buffers and retrieves the HTTP response from the server.

Just to let you know, I had to have this to get it to work:

String type = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
oCon.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.POST);
oCon.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", type );
oCon.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", String.valueOf(oPostData.getBytes().length));
oCon.setRequestProperty("Content-Language", "en-US");

Thanks for the help!
