BlueBox for iOS

[mmilen]

Any update on when we can expect BlueBox functionality for iPad. I'm kind of giving up to make a stable online card game as iPad Network can be be relied on. I feel BlueBox would be the way to go.

[A51Integrated]

Unfortunately no. BlueBox is quite a large undertaking so at this point in time we have no release date.

[mmilen]

Fair enough. Will look for solutions around TCP.

[A51Integrated]

The latest iOS API has just been released - it now includes BlueBox support

[mmilen]

Ow, that is awesome news.

[mmilen]

I have tried the new API with blue box support and get this error in the server logs. The server is version 2.2.0.

I'm pretty sure that has nothing to do with the client API. Check the server config and make sure that your ports etc are correct and open. Try restarting the server just to be safe. After that, try posting to the main SFS2X Questions forum as this is off topic for this one.

[mmilen]

I have this config file :


<SmartFoxConfig>
<ip>onlineplay.greatgameproducts.com</ip>
<port>9933</port>
<httpPort>8080</httpPort>
<httpPollSpeed>500</httpPollSpeed>
<zone>SocialBridgeTables</zone>
<useBlueBox>true</useBlueBox>
</SmartFoxConfig>

If I disable 9933 on my firewall, and start the App It gets no where ,, does not connect nor tries Blue Box. Is there anyhting I need in the code.

At the same time http://onlineplay.greatgameproducts.com:8080/admin/ is good , so the ports are properly opened.

[A51Integrated]

Make sure the Web Server is activated in the Server Configurator section of the Admin Tool (Web Server tab).

Also, use a config like this:

Code: Select all

<SmartFoxConfig>
    <ip>onlineplay.greatgameproducts.com</ip>
    <port>9933</port>
    <zone>SocialBridgeTables</zone>
    <debug>true</debug>
    <useBlueBox>true</useBlueBox>
    <httpPort>8080</httpPort>
    <blueBoxPollingRate>250</blueBoxPollingRate>
</SmartFoxConfig>

[mmilen]

The server is for sure up and running. As I can go to and monitor it. http://onlineplay.greatgameproducts.com:8080/admin/

I can see BlueBox.war file in the www folder, but I don;t see anything in the logs that indicated the war file is loaded by Jetty.

Do a clean of the project. Then run it again.

[mmilen]

I did.

Now intersting that it al worked with my local install of the server that is version 2.1.0 . My production was clean install of the official release and then patched top 2.2.0. Is there any Zone specific configuration I need to be aware of ?

[A51Integrated]

No, you should be good to go.

[mmilen]

Just patched my local server to 2.2.0 and I get this when the App is connecting. Definately something is wrong with BlueBox in 2.2.0

Absulutly there is an issue with the BlueBox.war in server version 2.2.0. I just replaced it with one from patch 2.1.0 and all works like a charm. Note I have all the patch files from 2.2.0 except the BlueBox.war. There might be some functionality issue , but at least for now I can connect over BlueBox.
