iPhone SDK Push Notification

Question

I have setup push notifications in the apple developer panel and added the code to my application.

It works fine on the phone using a development profile but if I use a distribution (ad-hoc) profile so that I can give it to a few users for testing it gives an error and crashes, the log gives the following error

Code:

Thu Jun 25 22:22:35 unknown SpringBoard[729] <Warning>: *** Assertion failure in -[SBRemoteNotificationServer registerApplication:forEnvironment:withTypes:], /SourceCache/SpringBoard/SpringBoard-919.5/SBRemoteNotificationServer.m:633
Thu Jun 25 22:22:35 unknown SpringBoard[729] <Error>: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'no connection found for environment production'

I am using the following code in the app

Code:

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:(UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert | UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound)];

The thing I don't understand is why it works perfectly using a development profile but with ad-hoc it crashes.

Does anyone know what would cause this?, I've tried changing lots of things to try and find the issue but have found nothing.

Solution 1

I was having this problem as well. The symptom was the app would crash when calling [[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:...].

It seems that once a given device loads an APNs Distribution Profile, trying to later go back to using an APNs Development Profile will not work unless you change the App ID.

If you create a user-defined build setting in Xcode, as suggested here:

iPhone "Good Practices"

you can stop the crashing and also have both versions co-exist on the same device for testing, etc.

Solution 2

I managed to get this working by re-requesting all of the certificates etc..
