Does anyone know why an Apple Push Notification development certificate would work locally, but not on my hosting server?

Question

My client certificate seems to work locally, but not on my hosting server.

So I have a "p12" that I exported my certificate to (for push notification development). I can perform a push from both my OSX and Windows boxes (on local network). The moment I move the push and certificate out to my hosting server, I get a timeout. The Apple Push Notification Service doesn't respond at all. Why is this?

Answer 1

You should take a look at iLime for doing Push Notifications. I was able to avoid the hassle setting up my own server and the integration was quick - less than an hour from start to finish.
