No notification pop-up & blank page

It may be you need to change something for it to work with nginx.

I would also set

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', '1');

at the top of index.php to see the actual error.

also i notice your site certificate is not valid.

Thank you macgamer,

The problem was in the config file, there was a wrong character (‘) inserted by my text editor. I don’t know how it happened, but your suggestion made it easer for me to figure out what was wrong.

I’ve also regenerated my certificates correctly so that they valid not. Safari is now asking properly for enabling notifications.

Okay, I’m promped to accept the notifications. I accept and can view that it is successfully activated in the push homepage. The database is with the Apple device ID’s correctly.

Thing is, though, I just don’t receive any notifications. Where the problem may be?

P.S: I’ve changed the link. The old one I published in the previous post won’t work anymore.

Thanks.

Sending a test push from within the plugin doesn’t work? Are you prompted to subscribe to notifications when you visit your wordpress site (not the push service)?

It could be something in your configuration is wrong, e.g. the website id, or one of the key files.

Thanks again for the attention, macgamer.

Yes, I’m promped to subscribe when I visit my wordpress site. You can check yourself: ipodschool.com

However, the notifications doesn’t work when I do a new post neither when I test a notification. I tried in more than one Mavericks, asked for friends to test, and nothing.

I’m just not certain about three things:

? What should I fill in “Web Service Authentication Code” in the WordPress’s section of the plugin? Is it the same value I write in define(‘AUTHORISATION_CODE’, ‘somethinghere’) in config.php?

? If I’m promped in the wordpress website and MySQL is recording data, that’s because the certificates .pem and .p12 are okay?

? Creating the certificates were tricky. I had to download the .cer file from my Apple Developer Account and then use Keychain app to convert to .p12 and .pem. Did I do it correctly?

Update: pushwoosh is working well for me. However, I had to implement it manually. I hadn’t have success with your plugin in both versions 0.6 and 0.7, using my own https:// server or pushwood. I had to implement pushwoosh code manually.

The problem with your plugin is the same I described in the last post: notification pop up appear but I get no push. I still prefer to run the notification system by my server side. However, I’m certain I did everything. If the devices ID’s were being stored in my database, then a communication between the client Maverick’s Safari and my server were working. But push’s not sent. :/

What should I fill in “Web Service Authentication Code” in the WordPress’s section of the plugin? Is it the same value I write in define(‘AUTHORISATION_CODE’, ‘somethinghere’) in config.php?

Exactly.

If I’m promped in the wordpress website and MySQL is recording data, that’s because the certificates .pem and .p12 are okay?

No, this only indicates that the p12 file is correct. The .pem file is the one used (and only used) when connecting to APNS to send a push. It’s possible that this file is invalid.

Creating the certificates were tricky. I had to download the .cer file from my Apple Developer Account and then use Keychain app to convert to .p12 and .pem. Did I do it correctly?

I had to go through a similar process, though I used the command-line:
openssl x509 -in website_aps_production.cer -inform der -out apns-cert.pem -nodes -clcerts. I’ll update the server readme on this with more detail.
Try openssl s_client -connect gateway.push.apple.com:2195 -CAfile apns-cert.pem from Terminal to vierfy you can connect without errors.

pushwoosh is working well for me. However, I had to implement it manually. I hadn’t have success with your plugin in both versions 0.6 and 0.7, using my own https:// server or pushwood. I had to implement pushwoosh code manually.

Could you let me know what you have to do to issue a push via pushwoosh? I had to give up trying to work support into the plugin because I couldn’t get that part of it to work without errors, and no-one from pushwoosh replied to my emails.

Hi macgamer,

I tested my pem certificate and got “Verify return code: 0 (ok)” as the last line of the command you asked me to run. Both .p12 and .pem must be okay…

About your question about pushwoosh, all I did was to create an account there. Then I uploaded the .p12 certificate and typed the password for it. The javascript code I have to include in my blog HTML is also generated. As simple as that. They did all the rest. There’s some documentation for the API, that includes also but personally speaking, I found it a little tricky (you may, however, understand it better than me): https://www.pushwoosh.com/programming-push-notification/pushwoosh-push-notification-remote-api/

Re. pushwoosh, are you able to actually issue a push notification? This was the bit I struggled with.

About your issue, try browsing to https://push.yoursite.com/v1/pushPackages and inspect the file that should get downloaded.

I’m also having a hard time in order to make it work. I’ve posted an issue under https://github.com/surrealroad/wp-safari-push/issues/11 – I’d really appreciate any help on how to set the plugin properly.

Thanks in advance.
