It would seem it is definitely environmental, you would need to investigate further on your side. It could be firewall related or an issue with the server, tough to say. But as it works from your other server it should be safe to assume your service is working as expected and the SDK, if set up the same, is also configured correctly.

Hi Garett,

Thanks. Will check and let you know.

But can you please guide me as to  why and when do we get this scokettimeoutexception.

Hi Annuk,

It's a standard Java error, usually means the connection timed out when waiting for data from a read, or when trying to establish the connection.

I tried to access: https://cp476.pushapi.na.blackberry.com/mss/PD_pushRequest and I was able to access the URL without a socket timeout. So it must be something environmental - perhaps a firewall blocking?

[annuk]

Hi,

How did you try to access the url?

I used the Push Service SDK to send a request to the URL you mentioned. Of course I don't have your password so the request was failed by the RIM push server saying it was unathorized but that was enough to prove that I can attempt to push to your URL.

Hi marco ,

Thanks.

We figured out the problem. There is some issue with the firewall on the production server, we are in process of figuring it out.

Hi Garett,

We tried opening the firewall access for the push request url, but still getting the same response.

The network team at our end wants to know the ip and port at which the request is being sent. Can you please tell us your ip and port so that it could be  bypassed from the firewall.

We have opened the firewall for ip: 74.82.71.66and ports 80 and 8443.

Hi Annuk,

Try 74.82.71.65 and port 443.

[annuk]

Hi garett,

They have already opened port 443, but still we are not able to send the notifications.

Annuk
