Push service not working

[JST]

I installed the Google API key for the push service before I have created the config file for my phone. My expectation was that the push service would wake up the phone once it goes to sleep (unregistered), but this never happens.

How can I fix that? Thank you!

Hello,

1. Make sure that you've made the right configuration for push by following this guide : https://www.3cx.com/docs/ .
2. Make sure that you public IP did not change for any reason
3. Check your 3CXDialer.logs for any Unauthorized response from the GCM (GCM response: Unauthorized Unauthorized) under : C:\ProgramData\3CX\Instance1\Data\Logs\3CXDialer.log


Thank you

Thank you for getting back to me!

Do you know where I can find this log on Debian Linux? I found some logs in the following folder: /var/lib/3cxpbx/Data/Logs

However, I don't see the 3CXDialer.log folder in that directory.

I have followed all steps in the guide, but no luck. Hopefully, I can find some clues in the log once I can locate it.

The logs are located at /var/lib/3cxpbx/Instance1/Data/Logs

The 3CXDialer.log shows has the following entries:

I am guessing that this means that the initial push is successful. The time shown is the time when I rebooted the system. There are no other entries. The extensions show consist of a desk phone and the 3CX Android mobile client. Extension 1010 is also using the Windows Client from time to time.

Should this log also show the actual push for an incoming call?

Hi,

Does incoming call work when the phone is awake?

I had this issue when the phone was asleep and I resolved it by deleting the sip account on the phone and sending the registration mail to it.
I opened the file attached to this mail and the Push worked with this newly created sip account.

Hope this help.

Thank you for your reply.

Yes, it does.

I also have an update. While working on fixing another issue, I discovered that some of my configuration options use an incorrect, local IP address. This issue has prevented me from connecting through the external network. My best guess is that the push issue will go away once I have re-installed the system.

I will report back next week.

I have found this in my logs. how can i solved?

I have a dynamic IP and can't restrict the api key to one IP adress but all other steps i followed excatly...

 

[YiannisH_3CX]

If you do not use your public IP address then google will not authorise you and push will fail. I am afraid every time that your IP changes you will need to update your Push project.

 

[JST]

If you haven't restricted your Google API project with an IP address (or range), then it should always work. So, you shouldn't see the error message in the log. It normally works fine for me using a dynamic address. Are you using your own dynamic DNS provider or are you using the one from 3CX? I found that the 3CX service is sometimes unavailable or needs extra time to update to a new IP address.

I am guessing that this might never work perfectly with a dynamic IP.

 

[sleepless]

If you do not use your public IP address then google will not authorise you and push will fail.

Why, if the Key is open? so it's not restricted and everybody can...
This is the only option for a dynamic address.

But i don't care in the future -> i use the 3CX Pushaccount and now it works fine...
