SSL3_WRITE_PENDING error

[ilyapuchka]

After some time service using PyAPNS is run in background I start to get such error: return self._sslobj.write(data) SSLError: [Errno 1] _ssl.c:1217: error:1409F07F:SSL routines:SSL3_WRITE_PENDING:bad write retry

After restarting service everythong works perfect. I use send_notification method for sending messages to all registered devices in simple for cycle.

This problem is still present in the current version.

@alexbutum pull requests #25 + #21 are an attempt to resolve this

[ghulam-muhammad-gvs]

There was one more issue I found even after merging #25 + #21:

Was this ever fixed in another commit?

[thetylerhayes]

Also just remembered I saw @djacobs comment on the same issue in @simonwhitaker's old repo here back in January too: https://github.com/djacobs/PyAPNs/pull/23. Looks like this wasn't ever officially merged in as a fix in that repo either.

[djacobs]

The bug & fix aren't well documented here, and the merge isn't clean. I am happy to discuss more if anyone is willing to summarize all the content in one place, but I'm generally going to be very conservative about these kinds of merges.

[thetylerhayes]

@djacobs I think the answerer in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12042932/pyapns-ssl3-write-pending-error has a pretty good summary. Does that help?

[djacobs]

It's helpful! But for me to accept the commit (many people use this software!) I'd like it all tied up in one place - problem statement, solution, patch, all in one github ticket (right now it's spread out over 3 or 4). I'm trying to be ticky-tacky, just trying to keep it simple.

Thanks, David

[thetylerhayes]

What are the other tickets? (I propose we can ignore those in other repos.) I can take a stab at organizing.

[wasauce]

I am able to reproduce this right now. What information can I provide that would help?

Below is what I am seeing in the logs. I haven't isolated a set of specific procedures to reproduce -- but a rough summary would be -- run pyapns and after a certain amount of time eventually this appears in the logs after sending hundreds to thousands of push notifications.

apns: 2014-08-05 16:16:50,659 - INFO - 505 - sending notification with id:674199962 to APNS failed: <class 'ssl.SSLError'>: [Errno 1] _ssl.c:1296: error:1409F07F:SSL routines:SSL3_WRITE_PENDING:bad write retry

Is this your fork: https://github.com/dZkF9RWJT6wN8ux/PyAPNs? It looks like it is in sync - per https://github.com/dZkF9RWJT6wN8ux/PyAPNs/compare/djacobs:master...master

Thanks!

I have merged the fixes from #21 https://github.com/djacobs/PyAPNs/pull/21 and #25 https://github.com/djacobs/PyAPNs/pull/25 a while back into my own fork and that fixed the problem. I'll try to provide my updated fork for reference.

@dZkF9RWJT6wN8ux Any luck?
