Getting constant error "publish timed out" on PubNub

Question

I've lunched the PubNub sample Android app and it works fine. Yet with my own pub/sub/secret keys, it doesn't. While with Javascript in Chrome it works fine using my own keys. On Android i'm getting error "publish timed out" constantly. Is it a known issue? How do I make it work?

Answer 1

Publish Timed Out Error on PubNub Network

This is an unhelpful error which is returned from the error callback within the PubNub Android SDK via Publish. The error reporting service is being upgraded currently and will provide better feedback for debugging. Currently the known errors which will occur on publish are the following:

Common Error Reasons

1. Invalid JSON
2. Message Too Large
3. Invalid Publish Key or Subscribe Key
4. Incorrect Origin

Note that because the error reporting service will always return "publish timed out", the actual error may be any of the above.

Valid JSON may be in the form of a "String", 123 (number), [1,2,3] (array) or an { 'object' : 'data } (object).
