Volley crash on request

[Jayce2177]

I recently started to get this error when I try to send a POST request and not sure how I fix it, this is the first time in a year I have seen volley crash.

E/Volley: [1157] NetworkDispatcher.processRequest: Unhandled exception java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'int java.lang.String.length()' on a null object reference

Looks like the same thing as #150. Please see my comment there and let me know if that resolves the problem.

Leaving this open as now that we've gotten multiple reports of this, it's clear that we should have a better error message here.

That was the issue, I had a null value that wasn't set before doing the volley request. Thanks for posting that, I tried to look for something before I posted this, but since it didn't tell me null error I had no clue what to look for.

Ooops looks like I logged into the wrong account to post.. Either way :)
