Push Notification Feedback Service

Does Apple notify us if a device has deregistered from notifications for a specific app or only if that app has been removed from the device? According to the documentation I came across it only appears to be the latter.

That seems to be correct based on my experience too. APNS feedback only maintain the tokens when The user has uninstalled the application

Push notification feedback problem

Hello everybody. I've installed on my iPhone ad-hoc version, so it means distribution one. I've downloaded apns-shart library and tried to test push notifications on that. I have all necessary certificates. I've succeeded to push notifications using test notification project and with this everything is fine. My problem is: when I've tried to use test feedback project it fetched needed device tokens, but when I've tried to launch it second time, it return 0 bytes. What can I do to fix the problem.

Well if you are a developer then you should know this isn't the forum for development help. They have their own forum. This is for user to user help with just how to use the phone.

Apple Push notification- APNS service production will work on which SSL protocol? (SSL 1 or SSL 2 or SSL 3 or TCL))

Hi,
Earlier we were using SSL 3 protocol for APNS sandbox.
but we have noticed that Its stopped working from last 2 weeks.
When we changed this to TSL protocol, its started working.
In this scenario, Which protocol should be used when we deploy our service to Production ?
SSL or TSL?
are there any recent changes regarding this to APNS?
Thanks in advance.

Hi alexburton,
I am using a similar systemconfig and this server.xml entry seems to work.
You probably will modify the port parameter.
<Connector className="org.apache.catalina.connector.http.HttpConnector"
acceptCount="10" allowChunking="true" bufferSize="2048"
connectionTimeout="20000" debug="0" enableLookups="true"
maxProcessors="75" minProcessors="5" port="8443" proxyPort="0"
redirectPort="-1" scheme="https" secure="true"
tcpNoDelay="true">
<Factory className="org.apache.catalina.net.SSLServerSocketFactory"
algorithm="SunX509" clientAuth="false"
keystoreFile="/var/tomcat4/.keystore" keystoreType="JKS"
protocol="TLS"/>
</Connector>

Send Push Notification after Sync Service Updates SQL Database

I am using Sync Services to synchronize an on-premise database with an Azure SQL Database. The Azure database is never updated directly - only through the sync service. I'd like to send a push notification to a mobile app whenever the
Sync Service changes the Azure database. How can I do that? Thanks very much.
Howard

Hello,
When you say "Sync Service", did you means Sync Framework?
If so, the issue is more relater to the Sync Framework development, I suggest you post the question in the following forum:

Does Office365 EWS provides Push Notification service for Contacts and Calendar Events?

Even though there are REST API's for performing PUSH and PULL operations for Office365(online), I am still looking the old EWS approach where in I want to subscribe for PUSH notification service for Contacts, Calendars and Mail Boxes.
Can any one suggest if there is a way to achieve this.

I posted an answer in your Stack Overflow post.

In the Apple Push Notification Service,How long does a push notification sit in queue before being removed?

Official developer documentation isn't clear about this.
Apple Push Notification Service includes a default Quality of Service (QoS) component that performs a store-and-forward function. If APNs attempts to deliver a notification but the device is offline, the QoS stores the notification. It retains only one notification per application on a device: the last notification received from a provider for that application. When the offline device later reconnects, the QoS forwards the stored notification to the device. The QoS retains a notification for a limited period before deleting it.

This is an iPad user to user forum, so you are not addressing Apple. We have no way to know what and when Apple will do something.
 Cheers, Tom

EWS Push Notification : Notification Service is not getting called from Exchange Server.

I have written 2 web services 1) Subscribing to Exchange Server 2) Notification client
I am able to create subscription to Exchange Server. But from Exchange server my notification client webservice is nt getting called. I am not sure how i am missing out any setting. below is my subscribe code and notification client code.
Subscribe code :
ExchangeService service = new ExchangeService(ExchangeVersion.Exchange2010_SP1);
service.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
service.Url = new Uri(exchangeServerurl);
FolderId parentId= FindFolderIdByDisplayName(service, "Order", WellKnownFolderName.PublicFoldersRoot);
pushSubscription = service.SubscribeToPushNotifications(
new FolderId[] {FindFolderIdfromRoot(service, "EmpCreatealert", parentId)},
new Uri(notificationService) /* The endpoint of the listener. */,
1 /* Get a status event every 5 minutes if no new events
are available. */,
null /* watermark: null to start a new subscription. */,
EventType.NewMail);
Notification client :
public class Notification : NotificationServicePortType, INotification
public SendNotificationResponse SendNotification(SendNotificationRequest request)
log("Enter SendNotification");
SendNotificationResponse snr = new SendNotificationResponse();
snr.SendNotificationResult = new SendNotificationResultType();
snr.SendNotificationResult.SubscriptionStatus = SubscriptionStatusType.OK;
return snr;
Can anyone suggest me what els i should do to get notification client to get called.

How are you testing this ? Are you just creating posts in the Public Folder or is the folder mail enabled and your sending email to it ?
Are you getting the heartbeat notifications ?
Have you tested your endpoint is accessible from the Exchange Server ? are you getting any error logged see
http://www.infinitec.de/post/2009/06/21/Troubleshooting-Push-notifications-failures.aspx
Your only subscribing to the NewMail event on public folder I would suggest at least for testing you subscribe to the CreateItem, MoveItem, DeleteItem events as well to see if other event fires when you create and delete Items in the folder. You might also
want to test something like
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/emeamsgdev/archive/2012/12/20/ews-push-notification-sample.aspx which is a basic sample

The following Apple Push Notification Service certificate will expire June 10, 2014.

We have a BES10.1.2 server with a UDS server. We have multiple iOS users that access work emails via Work Space/Work Connect. I do not find anything in the licensing that indicates anything is due to expire, however, we are receiving emails that the Apple Push Notification Service certificate is due to expire tomorrow. How do I determine if this is in fact the case? How do I renew this certificate?

Greetings Prem garigapati,

Has anyone successfully configured push notification services?

I have been struggling with this since mid December and still have not figured out how to configure or even debug push notificaiton services. I am running a Mac Mini Lion Server and have read every thread, article, snippet and breadcrumb on these discussion forums and elsewhere. I have been through jabberd/twisted/SSL/config in fine grained detail.
So my question is simply - is there anyone out there that has 10.7.3 and Push Notifications configured for mail/Calendar Server/iChat working? Did it just work out of the box for you by checking the box and requesting a cert? Did you have to go through a detailed debugging exercise and if so, what are the key components in this spaghetti that is the Lion APNS gateway?
I am happy to start posting logs and working with some contributors on this, but I would like to know that it is even possible before investing the time.
HELLLLLLLP! Please tell me there is light at the end of this tunnel!
Corey

Off of the top of my head the only push notification setting I am aware of in Lion Server is in Profile Manager and this only applies to Profile Manager services. Caldav and carddav have been updating fine for me whether I have Profile Manager on or off.

Apple push notification service certificates

I buy a server app to create my own network at my home business. the apple push notification service certificates have additional cost? I enter my pass but the app do not show me a price for a device. Normally all apple in-app upgrade show an alert. This certificate have an additional cost?

Server.app > select the server at the top of the left column > select Settings > select the Edit button to the right of enable Apple Push Notification > select Renew.
FWIW, I've previously logged an enhancement request with Apple, as this mechanism involves certificates, and isn't available on the certificates page within Server.app, nor is there a way to access the settings from the alert. This renewal mechanism just isn't as easy to find as it should be. You're not the first to be confounded by this stuff, in other words.

No Certificate from Push Notification Service

Hi all,
I'm trying to get an Apple Push Notification Service certificate, but after starting,
the dialog seems stucked forever while "Acquiring...".
The credentials are correct, I have allready tried different Apple-IDs, restarting Server.app
and also restarting the Mac, but no help so far.
This has been working within the last weeks flawlessly -- any thoughts are very welcome.

In order to get push notification certificate, do I need to be a paid member/developer ?
I am a free developer. How do I get a push notification certificate ?

Still no push notification service.

The push notification servie was promised to come in september. Now it's almost January. When do you expect it to come? MacWold?

With the MobileMe chaos, Cuppertino has realized that they cannot rush out web services anymore without 120% confidence. I expect to get an update from Steve himself in the Jan event.
