Volley not calling getParams() for second time

Question

I am trying to post login parameters to my server using Volley in Android.For first time login it send params, but after i logout and try to login again, it won't call getparams, instead it sends the previous login params to the server.

I tried with log statements,On first time it prints log statemant, but on the second time it won't

StringRequest stringRequest=new StringRequest(Request.Method.POST,LOGIN_URL,
            new Response.Listener<String>() {
                @Override
                public void onResponse(String response) {
                    if (response!=null){
                        Log.d("loginResponse", response);
                        try {
                            JSONObject object= new JSONObject(response);
                            uid=object.getString(KEY_UR_ID);
                            firstName=object.getString(KEY_F_NAME);
                            lastName=object.getString(KEY_L_NAME);
                            fullName=firstName+" "+lastName;
                            email=object.getString(KEY_EMAIL);
                            phone=object.getString(KEY_PHONE);
                            dob=object.getString(KEY_DOB);
                            gender=object.getString(KEY_GENDER);
                            userType=object.getString(KEY_UTYPE);
                            address=object.getString(KEY_U_ADDRESS);
                            pincode=object.getString(KEY_U_PINCODE);

                            // Inserting row in users table
                            db.addUser(uid, firstName, lastName,email,phone,gender,userType,address,pincode);
                            // user successfully logged in
                            // Create login session
                            session.setLogin(true);
                            loginProgress.dismiss();
                            onBackPressed();

                        } catch (JSONException e) {

Are you creating request every time, check by putting logs or debugging in other places also i think you are not making the request second time, since half code is present every thing else looks fine, – Knighthead

What your error log? – Jackscrew

at first put Log.d("...") in getParams() to ensure that method called , the if it called , the use breakpoint for first line of getParams() method and trace lines , may there are one exception and method throws out , too put Log.d("...") in all catch exception to see what happened. – Bensky

@ piyush, on second time login i get the string response but it is same as the first – Supertax

I had this problem as well. it happened because volley params cache. Try to clean the cache with command: getCache().clear(); i.e.:

RequestQueue requestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(this);
requestQueue.getCache().clear();
requestQueue.add(stringRequest);
