BlackBerry Push Development

Dear,

I can't get the sample-app (the server app) from the pushsdk to work.

The client sample app is running fine but when I try to run the server app, I always get this error from tomcat:

SCHWERWIEGEND: Allocate exception for servlet sample-app
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: net.rim.pushsdk.commons.PushSDKException

    at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$Worker.run(JIoEndpoint.java:447)
    at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

I tried building it with the shipped build.bat and with eclipse but both failed.

Tomcat always gives this error.

Does anyone know about this error or how to fix it?

Best regards,

Bullety

...and this is one error message later in the stack:

Do you have your Tomcat working? I mean if you launch in a browser http://localhost:8080 ,do you see the Tomcat welcome screen? How did you install Tomcat, together with BB Push SDK or separetely.

I  had similar errors while trying to launch the sample apps (debog-portal, sample-app) from BB Push SDK.

The way I solve it was following carefully all the steps provided in BlackBerry Push Service SDK "Getting started guide". ch8 "Configuring the server-side applications".

Hope it will help you.

I followed the pdf guide step by step. However, I still get the following error in the tomcat log file:

Does anyone have any clue on what might go wrong?

[sonicboomboy]

I think it's connected to MySql database. Have you installed it? Does the corresponding mysql service run correctly?

[chrisdn]

I struggled with the error for days, uninstalling and installing mysql server serveral times. I even tried the oralce database, but got the same error. And suddenly after I had reinstalled the BPSS, everything worked just fine. Now I am about to test the push service on a real BB.
