Michael, and others,

I’ve implemented a change to use HTTP/v2 API, based on Net::APNS::Simple perl module:

https://github.com/openvehicles/Open-Vehicle-Server/issues/33

This is now running on api.openvehicles.com and seems to work ok, but feedback appreciated.

Regards, Mark.

Michael,

Yes, seems I missed this. My other projects use either AWS SNS or EXPO so abstract this out.

It appears that a simple short-term solution is to switch to Net::APNS::Simple (which says it uses the Apple HTTP/2 interface). It is blocking, but we could wrap it in a fork_call just like the GCM implementation does.

It is late here now, but I can have a look at it tomorrow (unless anyone else can have a go at it earlier).

Regards, Mark.

A user just reported he no longer gets any iOS notifications, seems to have begun ~2-3 days ago.

The log shows:
2025-05-19 12:50:32.140969 +0200 info  main: - - - msg apns processing queue for gateway.push.apple.com
2025-05-19 12:50:32.571275 +0200 error main: - - - connection to apns FAILED: EOF during handshake

I've found this forum entry:
https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/784585?answerId=839840022#839840022

So it seems Apple has finally adopted the Google way of deprecating established services without need.

Mark, I assume this affects your server as well, if not now then in the near future. Probably the iOS App doesn't need an update, but I haven't checked that.

Is anyone able to help with updating the server to the new APNS API? I don't have any iOS devices, so testing is difficult for me.

Regards,
Michael
