Android : webview : getting error code -6 net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

Question

I keep getting errorcode -6 and description net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED on android webview in

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    final WebView webview =(WebView) this.findViewById(R.id.webView);

    WebSettings webSettings = webview.getSettings();
    webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    webview.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());//I only implemented onReceivedError to display the errors in logcat

    webview.loadUrl("http://mydomainexample.com");// it loads http://google.com but throws error code = -6 for my doamin which works fine in any navigator

}

while the exact same url (example http://aaaaaaaaa.com ) works well in any navigator, do webviews make connections differently from navigators? What could be causing this issue?

Answer 1

Maybe due to cookie request by the website (see Android Webview error code -6 ) but please post your code. There is also a posting on https://github.com/ionic-team/capacitor/issues/1848

Answer 2

The issue was that the loaded webpage had a js file that, asynchronously, made a request to a port which was blocked on the server. I've tried removing that request and it worked
