Connection over 3G about strophejs

[isfarax]

Hi,

Check that the BOSH server is responding because sometimes it doesn't work (especially if you're using meta jack's).

I tested the connection in Somalia using 2G - and it worked fine. (Strophe.js + Bosh), so it should work on 3G.

@isfarax hi, what kind of response messages do you mean? Same server works over wifi with same files and works with one jabber mobile app over mobile network. When connect via mobile network, connection status change to "connecting" and console not receive any more messages.

Can I see on server that messages? Could you tell me where/how?

Other info: The first POST request status is always "pending" on chrome bug review until it set to "failed".

[isfarax]

is your BOSH server working? and is it being timed out?

[metajack]

It is responding fine for me.

@isfarax @metajack I was made changes in client side and, if I use @metajack BOSH server to login connection is OK. This tells me that the server that I use has any bad configuration (buy works on wifi well :S). Server is OpenFire instead of Ejabberd (metajack server) but I think that it isn't problem.

Another thing I see, @metajack uses 5280 port to connect and the server that I has uses 7070 port (Normaly port?) Is this an important thing for mobile network connection? I don't know companies ports limitations (sounds like conspiracy hehe).

PD: Chat server and bosh server are the same.

a BOSH is like middleman that allows your client/app to communicate with the XMPP server over HTTP.

there could be many reasons why your BOSH server is not responding - but at least you know where the issue is coming from.

i recommend you use the default ports (5280) and also ejabbed server because you can turn on the built-in BOSH server.

also, because 3G connections are not always reliable, you should set the timeout to a higher value, maybe a minute before the connection closes. what could be happening is that the connection is not getting timed-out.

On another note, @metajack could you please make an in-depth tutorial on how you set up your BOSH server (maybe a video). i want to also thank you for all the hard work you have done on strophe.js.

Connection seems to work under mobile network since server changes. I wasn't understand that only 3G connections fails.

Thanks to @isfarax @metajack!!!
