Push notification service fills the system log with errors

When I have the push notification service enabled, my system logs become filled with messages such as this:
Sep 8 22:54:54 xserve jabberd/c2s[2175]: [7] [::ffff:192.168.1.100, port=50064] connect
Sep 8 22:54:54 xserve jabberd/c2s[2175]: [7] [::ffff:192.168.1.100, port=50064] disconnect jid=unbound, packets: 0
They occur at a rate of about two every second. What does that message mean and how do I stop it?

When I took a look at push notification, I noticed that it was listening to a different port than what dovecot had been configured to use.(jabberd was set to listen to 5347, while Dovecot (email) was using the standard 5222 port for that open protocol. Not sure what the ichat server is set to use.
Eventually, I did manage to get it working by updating the push notification config to listen to 5222. But it made no real difference because thunderbird and mail.app prefer imap updatings instead of push notification. So I turned it off.
Not sure if this is of any help to you.

  • Whenever i go to an app it says "connect to iTunes to use push notifications" i have the iPhone 4 with ios 5

    Also whenever I use facetime or imessage it says to turn it on. When i go to settings it says "waiting for activation" how can I fix this???? And youtube does not work even though i have internet connection and safari works properly.

    So I did a backup in ITunes, and then a complete restore and now it seems fixed. Not having any more of those messages? The only difference I noticed is that this time around it asked for a password for the iMessage and Facetime, which it didn't before ( on the ios5 update). I just entered my apple live id information. Also my facetime is now happy (ie. not showing waiting for activation). Don't know if this is linked somehow, but mine seems good now.

  • Flashupdater filling system.log with spew

    Has anyone else noticed that flashupdater is filling their system.log with spew? This is happening on systems with and without flash installed. Sign, yet another blunder...

    Correct. See this post: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3952378?tstart=0
    and change your com.apple.flashupdater.plist file. That should take care of it.

  • Push notification service confussion

    Hello all,
    Hope u all r reading this in the best of the time. Recently i read on the net abt the push notification service from the apple team. It indeed is a great thing to see since there is no background processing, but i do have some queries in this concern.
    The first thing i wana know is that when Apple is going to launch this new service? Another thing which i read is that it needs the firmware to be changed, now the thing that confuses me is that how can we update our emulator for iPhone (the one that comes with the Xcode ide)? or will there be an update in the SDK an we will need to re download it? Is there any such program so that one can get register and get this service a bit earlier (before its release)?
    Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
    Best regards,
    Obaid

    Ok, now the iPhone OS 2.1 BETA has been released. Do any one have any idea about notification service? Any help in this regard. I have downloaded the latest version and now i m going to install it.
    Please let me know because i haven't read any thing abt notification service in the documentation.
    Looking forward to hearing from you.
    Best regards,

  • Does the new command 2 binary format work with Apple Push Notification Service? I receive an invalid response status code of 128.

    Does the new command 2 binary format work with Apple Push Notification Service? I am sending 2 messages with the same payload to 2 different devices. None of the messages display on either of the devices. It seems that at least 3 should have been displayed. For my first device, I received a response with an invalid status code of 128 and the message identifier is 2 indicating that the first message was OK. However no message was displayed on the phone. For the second device, I did not receive any error response, but no message was displayed on the device.
    Does ANS perform any validation on the message identifier? The Local and Push Notification Programmin Guide says the message identifier is:
    An arbitrary, opaque value that identifies this notification. This identifier is used for reporting errors to your server.
    I know that the device tokens are valid because the same tokens work when I use the legacy basic or enhanced formats. The phones display the messages correctly when I send to ANS using the old ANS message format.
    Here is the data and the response:

  • Cube compression filling up the system logs

    Hi,
         I reloaded the inventory cube with 2LIS_03_BF (init with data transfer) with 46million records (in a single request). When I try to compress the request without the marker update BX has already been compressed with the marker update) , the system logs are getting filled up and the production system is freezing up.
        Is there any solution that makes the compression job take lesser time and generate less logs? At this time, we are not looking in to dropping the data and reloading in smaller chunks, cos that will take another 2days to reload the 46mil records.
    Thanks for any suggestions,
    Ajax.

    Hi Ajax,
    We had a similar issue early last yr. Compression uses a lot of temp spaces and fills up the logs .  You can ask your basis team to help you by increasing the MAX_LOGS parameter temporarily to complete your compression. As a last resort you can also ask them to involve secondary logs or setting the logs to "unlimited" value and rerun the compression job .However  pls note that this is limited by the filesystem size.
    Hope it helps .
    Thnks

  • 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

  • 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.

  • *HELP* - Apple Push Notification Service certificates

    For several times now I received the following Message from "[email protected]":
    The following Apple Push Notification Service certificates, created for AppleID [email protected] will expire on March 14, 2015. Revoking or allowing this certificate to expire will require existing devices to be re-enrolled with a new push certificate. You can renew your certificates with your OS X server administration tools. macserver.local - apns:com.apple.calendar

    What does it mean? Where does it come from? I have absolutely no idea?
    The only thing that comes into my mind was the exchange of my old TimeCapsule with a MacMini as a Fileserver last year. Those days I played a little with OS Mavericks Server, but finally didn't use it. I didn't even purchase the Server App for Yosemite. Is this any sort of "artefact" from my Server exploration activities? Is there any risk that my poor Mac will explode and kill me on March 14??????????

  • Understanding the system log (boot time 2 minutes)

    Dear Apple Discussion,
    I am trying to read the system.log correctly - mainly because my boot time is 2 minutes.
    I have read that the beginning of the boot up is indicated by the line:
    localhost kernel[0]: standard timeslicing quantum is 10000 us
    is this correct?
    Next, does the line:
    loginwindow[165]: Login Window Started Security Agent
    indicate that the login window has come up?
    If both of these are correct then my boot time should be 18s (according to the time stamps in the log) - it defefinitely is not that.
    Does the boot process start instead at this line:
    shutdown: reboot by root:
    If this were the case, the boot time would be closer to 2 minutes according to the log (which is what it actually is).
    This then brings up the next problem: the two minutes basically come from the following line:
    Nov 29 17:30:24 Purrfekt shutdown: reboot by root:
    Nov 29 17:30:24 Purrfekt SystemStarter[177]: authentication service (194) did not complete successfully
    Nov 29 17:30:24 Purrfekt kernel[0]: CiscoVPN : unloading cisco ipsec kernel module.
    Nov 29 17:30:24 Purrfekt kernel[0]: CiscoVPN : detaching from interface: en1.
    Nov 29 17:30:24 Purrfekt kernel[0]: CiscoVPN : interface en1, filter has been safely detached.
    Nov 29 17:30:24 Purrfekt kernel[0]: CiscoVPN : detaching from interface: en0.
    Nov 29 17:30:24 Purrfekt kernel[0]: CiscoVPN : interface en0, filter has been safely detached.
    Nov 29 17:32:12 localhost kernel[0]: standard timeslicing quantum is 10000 us
    ending line of the boot process occurs at (if my above assumption is correct):
    Nov 29 17:32:31 Purrfekt loginwindow[165]: Login Window Started Security Agent
    So why does it hang for so long at this one process? Am I reading the log incorrectly? I have searched around here and also on google ("slow boot time", "cisco vpn tiger", etc..) but haven't found anything relating to my problem.
    Thanks for any help.

    v.1 PowerBook G4 15''   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    I am trying to read the system.log correctly - mainly because my boot time is 2 minutes.
    It appears to be that a restart or shutdown process delays nearly 2 minutes rather than a startup process, presumably due to one of WindowServer children or a bug stays in Mac OS X 10.4.3 Update-- Mine delays approximately 30 - 40 minutes on PowerMac G5 2.7 Ghz on every shutdown or restart process. Your computer is PowerMac G4 so that make sense. I found a suspect application which is a security related. Although I am still investigating further because the issue does not occur on the lower drive bay where I install another Mac OS X 10.4.3 Update (but no third-party software) as a test facility.
    localhost kernel[0]: standard timeslicing quantum is 10000 us
    This is correct and the first line to display sequential events in a boot process.
    loginwindow[165]: Login Window Started Security Agent
    This is also a normal behavior.
    SystemStarter[xxx]: authentication service (xxx) did not complete successfully
    This can be displayed depending on a computer configuration.
    A sequential event from CiscoVPN: unloading cisco ipsec kernel module to CiscoVPN: interface en0, filter has been safely detached seems to be all right if you PROPERLY configure VPN policy and IPsec (Internet Protocol Security) authenticate, etc for your Cisco device. IPsec is a framework for a set of protocols for security at the network or packet processing layer of network communication.
    I suggest to check all related settings with Netwrok/Sharing panes and the router configurations for VPN (IPsec), IPv6, security, etc. Also check routing table and all socket connections after you launch Network Utility or via Terminal commands.
    FYI: interface en0 is a wired connection and interface en1 is a wireless connection such as AirPort. IPsec kernel module is a unit of kernel program or componet for IPsec.
    Hope this helps.

  • Application messages are in the system log instead of the application log

    Hi SAP GURUS.
    The standard output is created from the outbound delivery .
    All the messages are hitting the system log instead of the application log .
    This is after the upgrade from 4.6c to ECC 6.0 .
    Please provide the details how to move the log to the application log since the output is the standard output (SAP provided output type ).

    I'm not certain if those messages indicate a power issue but you can try *resetting the System Management Controller* and see if that helps. Here's how: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1806
    "The System Management Controller (SMC) is a chip on the logic board that controls all power functions for your computer. If your computer is experiencing any power issue, resetting the SMC may resolve it. The SMC controls several functions, including:
    Telling the computer when to turn on, turn off, sleep, wake, idle, and so forth.
    Handling system resets from various commands.
    Controlling the fans."

  • Mdworker saturating the system.log file

    Hi,
    i have a problem on my late 2010 MBA, running 10.6.8. Frequently, the fan goes frantic, and it appears it is linked to mdworker running over and over again. It seems to be doing that when the vpn from the company is running (Juniper through Secure App Manager).
    I checked the system.log file and it is 2.63Go for the past 5 days! Mostly filled with
    Jan  3 08:45:39 Puss mdworker[59604]: socket(PF_ROUTE) failed: Operation not permitted
    Jan  3 08:45:39 Puss sandboxd[59747]: mdworker(59604) deny system-socket
    Jan  3 08:45:39 Puss sandboxd[59747]: mdworker(59604) deny network-outbound /private/var/run/mDNSResponder
    (repeated 500 times and over, and eventually:
    Jan  3 08:45:39: --- last message repeated 1 time ---
    Jan  3 08:45:39 Puss mdworker[59604]: socket(PF_ROUTE) failed: Operation not permitted
    Jan  3 08:45:39 Puss sandboxd[59747]: mdworker(59604) deny system-socket
    Jan  3 08:45:39 Puss com.apple.launchd[1] (0x100101ea0.mach_init.mdworker[59604]): Exited with exit code: 1
    Can the vpn really have an influence on Spotlight? What is spotlight trying to index and why is it denied?
    Eventually, i may be dreaming, but it seems that something is chewing up my SSD space. Without adding much files, it feels like free space is going down.
    Thanks for any help.

    I solved the problem by adding the hidden '/private' directory on the harddisk to the places that spotlight is forbidden to index (in the systems preference pane -> Spotlight ->Privacy)
    You have drag the '/private' folder into the locations box.
    You may have to install something like 'secrets' to show hidden folders in the finder.

    ignore everything above - same error messages came back
