I am trying to perform a GET
request and retrieve the data from the response.
this.http.get('http://localhost:8888/maneappback/more-items.php').subscribe(res => {
console.log(res.json());
}, (err) => {
console.log(err);
});
I am getting the error SyntaxError: Unexpected token C in JSON at position 0
. I am also assuming that the error is related to the request.
On my server side, I have the data being sent like this (PHP):
echo json_encode($array);
I was just neglecting to realize that I still had two echo
statements in the script...that is why it wasn't recognized as JSON.
The message you see is that your JSON response is not formatted correctly
GOOD JSON:
{ "name":"John", "age":31, "city":"New York" }
BAD JSON
{ 'name': 'john' }
OR
{ 'name' = 'john' }
In your case, the JSON begins with character C
