    <p>I have tried to send push notifications to my apps multiple times, but with no avail. I have followed many tutorials and followed all the steps. I am getting successful messages from the APNS server, yet no message ever arrives to the device. I have tested sending using the development certificate which arrived successfully, and I have generated the appropriate production certificates and am using them in the php script. I will post my code below. Please let me know if you see something I am doing wrong. I just don't know what it is...</p> <p>Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $link=mysqli_connect('****','****','****','***'); if(mysqli_connect_errno()) { header('HTTP/1.1 400'); header('Content-type: text/html'); echo 'Connection Error: %s\n',mysqli_connect_error(); exit; } echo "Connected to Database&lt;br /&gt;"; echo "Querying Database&lt;br /&gt;"; switch ($_REQUEST['App']) { case "O2": $query="SELECT Token FROM O2CalculatorPushTokens"; break; case "LZA": $query="SELECT Token FROM LZAPushTokens"; break; case "MorseCode": $query="SELECT Token FROM MorseCodePushTokens"; break; default: echo "Unknown App."; exit; } $result=mysqli_query($link,$query); echo mysqli_num_rows($result)."&lt;br /&gt;"; if ($result==false) { echo "No tokens to send to."; } else { //Set SSL context $ctx = stream_context_create(); echo "Loading SSL Certificate...&lt;br&gt;"; switch($_REQUEST['App']) { case "O2": stream_context_set_option($ctx, 'ssl', 'local_cert', 'SSL/O2CalculatorProductionSSL.pem'); break; case "LZA": stream_context_set_option($ctx, 'ssl', 'local_cert', 'SSL/LandingZoneAssistantProductionSSL.pem'); break; case "MorseCode": stream_context_set_option($ctx, 'ssl', 'local_cert', 'SSL/MorseCodeProductionSSL.pem'); break; default: exit; } echo "Unlocking SSL Certificate...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;"; stream_context_set_option($ctx, 'ssl', 'passphrase', '****'); //Open a connection to the APNS server echo "Connecting to APNS server...&lt;br&gt;"; $fp = stream_socket_client('ssl://gateway.push.apple.com:2195', $err, $errstr, 60, STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT|STREAM_CLIENT_PERSISTENT, $ctx); if(!$fp) exit("Failed to connect: $err $errstr&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;"); else echo "Connected to APNS!&lt;br /&gt;"; //Create the payload body echo "Creating message...&lt;br&gt;"; $body['aps'] = array('alert' =&gt; $_REQUEST['PushMessageTextArea']); echo $body."&lt;br&gt;"; //Encode the payload as JSON echo "Encoding message...&lt;br&gt;"; $payload = json_encode($body); echo $payload."&lt;br&gt;"; while($row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) { //Build the binary notification echo "Sending message to ".$row['Token']."&lt;br&gt;"; $msg = chr(0).pack('n',32).pack('H*',$row['Token']).pack('n',strlen($payload)).$payload; //Send it to the server $PushResult = fwrite($fp, $msg, strlen($msg)); if (!$PushResult) echo "Message not delivered! &lt;br /&gt;"; else echo "Message successfully delivered! &lt;br /&gt;"; }; //Close connection to the server echo "Closing APNS connection...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;"; fclose($fp); mysqli_free_result($result); } mysqli_close($link); </code></pre> <p>And my iPhone script...</p> <pre><code>- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions { // Override point for customization after application launch. //Register for push notifications [[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:(UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert)]; return YES; } - (void)application:(UIApplication*)application didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken:(NSData*)deviceToken { if (![[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] boolForKey:@"registeredForPush"]) { //Remove spaces and brackets from deviceToken NSString* token = [deviceToken description]; token = [token stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet characterSetWithCharactersInString:@"&lt;&gt;"]]; token = [token stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@" " withString:@""]; NSMutableString *params = [[NSMutableString alloc] initWithFormat:@"Token="]; [params appendString:token]; NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.bluelineapps.net/****.php"] cachePolicy:NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringCacheData timeoutInterval:100.0]; [request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"]; [request setHTTPBody:[params dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]]; NSURLConnection *connection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request delegate:self]; if (connection) { //Show alert UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Thank you!" message:@"Thank you for registering for updates.

Sent message to release version on Ad Hoc version on test device using main apple gateway, unsuccessful....</p> <p>Any ideas?</p> <p>I receive no error messages from the APNS service, everything successful. No build errors. Brand new up-to-date certificates...</p> <hr> <p><strong>UPDATE:</strong></p> <p>I found this article from Apple Technical support <a href="https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#technotes/tn2265/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/DTS40010376" rel="nofollow">here</a> and followed all the steps and checked everything. As far as I can tell everything checks out. My production build does contain the aps_environment of Production as it should.</p> <p>Also I found <a href="http://code.google.com/p/apns-php/wiki/CertificateCreation" rel="nofollow">this method</a> for generating the .pem files, which was a little different then my previous attempts, so I tried this, and it still doesn't work. My code is still the same as above as the problem seems to be elsewhere, but if anyone sees something when scanning through PLEASE let me know. I just want this to work.</p> <p>I would happily put a bounty on this question, but I don't have anywhere near enough reputation for it, and I have been trying to gain some by helping others with their questions. </p> <hr> <p><strong>UPDATE:</strong></p> <p>While searching I found another document by Apple <a href="http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/CommunicatingWIthAPS/CommunicatingWIthAPS.html" rel="nofollow">here</a> that has a line in it that states "Take note that the device token in the production environment and the device token in the development (sandbox) environment are not the same value." So I suppose another question would be.</p> <p><strong>Is the deviceToken different for development and production modes?</strong></p> <hr> <p><strong>UPDATE:</strong></p> <p>I know this is getting long but I am trying to show what steps I have taken to try to self solve this problem.</p> <p>I keep seeing this Entrust CA certificate popping up in the documentation. I have used this to verify a connection with the APNS gateway, but I am not using it in my connection while sending push messages because none of the examples I have seen show to use it. Is this required and if so then how do I use it?</p> <hr> <p><strong>UPDATE:</strong></p> <p>I have decided to try using PhoneGap to re-develop my apps and reach additional audiences, so I will close this for now. Thanks everyone for your help.</p>

    1. COSo you're saying it works with the Development certificate, but not when using the Production certificate (i.e. no message received)?

    3. COAdHoc, can be distributed using `Development Certificate`. For that you don't need to use main `apple gateway`. Normal `sandbox gateway` is enough.

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
