  Environment Setup

Parse server 2.2.4 on Elastic Beanstalk

My Server code:

var api = new ParseServer({
  databaseURI: databaseUri || 'mongodb://localhost:27017/dev',
  cloud: process.env.CLOUD_CODE_MAIN || __dirname + '/cloud/main.js',
  appId: process.env.APP_ID || 'myAppId',
  masterKey: process.env.MASTER_KEY || '',
  serverURL: process.env.SERVER_URL || 'http://localhost:1337/parse',  
  liveQuery: {
    classNames: ["Mission"]
  },
  filesAdapter: new S3Adapter(
    process.env.S3_ACCESS_KEY || '',
    process.env.S3_SECRET_KEY || '',
    process.env.S3_BUCKET || '',
    {directAccess: true}
  ),
  push: {
    ios: {
      pfx: 'certificates/development.p12',
      bundleId: 'co.example.myApp',
      production: false // Dev
    }
  }
});

Steps to reproduce

Tried to send a push notification both through CURL and cloud code:

var installationQuery = new Parse.Query(Parse.Installation);
installationQuery.containedIn('user', specificUser);
Parse.Push.send({
  where: installationQuery,
  data: {
    "alert": "Loren ipsum ",
    "id": MyCustomId
  }
}, { useMasterKey: true }, {
  success: function() {
    console.log("Push was successful!");
  },
  error: function(error) {
    console.error(error);
  }
});

(The error repeats for every installation device token.)

please look through all other issues related to push notifications, particularly on https://github.com/parse-server-modules/parse-server-push-adapter as this seem to be a problem in your configuration.

[cassiozen]

Hi @flovilmart - I've looked through all issues, doubled checked my configuration - I'm still stuck in this problem.

Any other ideas or directions?

[flovilmart]

try with a production certificate.

[cassiozen]

Thanks a lot @flovilmart. Worked with production certificate. Revoked and generated a new development profile and it worked as well.

I have this error shown but push actually works. What does it mean?

[flovilmart]

It means à that for a given deviceToken/bundleId pair, the connection to APNS is unable to deliver the notification.
That can be caused by a number of reasons, like sending a notification to a deviceToken acquired by the wrong environment (prod vs dev) etc...

[profjared]

@flovilmart - in my case I receive an error, but the push actually does reach my device

[profjared]

Actually - I've been pushing to a channel - and I bet one of the devices is not prod, so it throws an error. I'll go ahead and clear my device list and see if that helps.

[amariduran]

@profjared Did clearing the device list solve the issue for you? I'm also receiving the error; even though push notifications are working...

[profjared]

@jch-duran i believe it did - but it was a long ago and unfortunately don't remember

[amariduran]

@profjared It did for me as well! Thanks!
