I have a problem making my Arduino Ethernet shield to communicate with the server, the result on the serial monitor is always:
my arduino code is
#include <Ethernet.h> //library for ethernet functions
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Dns.h>
#include <Client.h> //library for client functions
#include <DallasTemperature.h> //library for temperature sensors
// Ethernet settings
byte mac[] = {0x09,0xA2,0xDA,0x00,0x01,0x26}; //Replace with your Ethernet shield MAC
byte ip[] = { 192,168,0,54}; //The Arduino device IP address
byte subnet[] = { 255,255,255,0};
byte gateway[] = { 192,168,0,1};
IPAddress server(192,168,0,53); // IP-adress of server arduino sends data to
EthernetClient client;
bool connected = false;
void setup(void) {
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("Initializing Ethernet.");
delay(1000);
Ethernet.begin(mac, ip , gateway , subnet);
}
void loop(void) {
if(!connected) {
Serial.println("Not connected");
if (client.connect(server, 80)) {
connected = true;
int temp =analogRead(A1);
Serial.print("Temp is ");
Serial.println(temp);
Serial.println();
Serial.println("Sending to Server: ");
client.print("GET /formSubmit.php?t0=");
Serial.print("GET /formSubmit.php?t0=");
client.print(temp);
Serial.print(temp);
client.println(" HTTP/1.1");
Serial.println(" HTTP/1.1");
client.println("Host: http://localhost/PhpProject1/");
Serial.println("Host: http://localhost/PhpProject1/");
client.println("User-Agent: Arduino");
Serial.println("User-Agent: Arduino");
client.println("Accept: text/html");
Serial.println("Accept: text/html");
//client.println("Connection: close");
//Serial.println("Connection: close");
client.println();
Serial.println();
delay(10000);
}
else{
Serial.println("Cannot connect to Server");
}
}
else {
delay(1000);
while (client.connected() && client.available()) {
char c = client.read();
Serial.print(c);
}
Serial.println();
client.stop();
connected = false;
}
}
the server is an Apache server running on a pc, the server ip address in the code is the pc ip address. For testing purposes I work at my homes network, there's no proxy or firewall, and I also turned of the antivirus and firewall on my pc.
the result in the serial monitor is always:
Not connected
Cannot connect to Server
Any thoughts??
Have you verified the MAC address is correct?
If it still doesn't work, try using
in stead of
And change
to
Hope this helps
It worked, the problem was in
Ethernet.begin(mac, ip , gateway , subnet)
, I removed this line and configure the Ethernet Shield using the DHCP,Ethernet.begin(mac)
