Push notifications to Moodle Mobile app not working

Push notifications to Moodle Mobile app not working

I'm trying to figure out why mobile push notifications aren't working. We're running a registered Moodle 3.2.3+ (Build: 20170519).  We were successful in configuring the messaging server (messages.moodle.net) -- we successfully requested an access key, and that is included in the messaging configuration. Notifications are enabled on the site. The users who are testing have their notifications enabled properly. Their mobile devices (e.g., iPhone) are running the latest Moodle Mobile app. They successfully added the site, and made sure the app was set to receive notifications (both in the iPhone settings and the app settings). But when we submit forum posts, for example, no push notifications are received on the phone for those who should get them. I can go to the app and see that there are new forum posts in the notifications, but these notifications are being pushed to the phone. No alerts, etc. 

Is there anything else we should look at? How do I know that the messaging service (messages.moodle.net) is actually working for this site? Is there a way to test/ping this? I can't seem to find any troubleshooting information. 

Thanks... Brian

I believe my initial post clearly demonstrates that I'm familiar with that page (we're running 3.2.3). Too bad there isn't any troubleshooting info there. We plan to set up our own Airnotifier server, which we hope will help pinpoint the problem. That appears to be our only option at this point.

Hi,

have you checked the connectivity of your server to the Internet? Your server will need access to https://messages.moodle.net to send the messages, maybe that's the issue

Hi there,

We're running Moodle 3.2, iOS push notifications are working well, Android push notifications only work when the app is open. Have tried on 2 android devices so far, both have the same problem.


Any suggestions?


Thanks,

Hi Usman,

are you using the official Moodle Mobile app or a custom one?

Have you checked the documentation?

Hi,

we just tested in Android 7 and we received correctly the notifications.

Could you try to test if you receive notifications from moodle.org?

Once connected to moodle.org you have to enable Mobile notifications in the site or via app settings -> notifications / messages.

You can ask someone to send you a private message to check if you receive a notification (or subscribe to forum discussions or forum posts)

Regards, Juan
