Not able to send push notifications in APNS Dev environment using Amazon SNS

I am using Amazon SNS service to send push notification. But today, it suddenly stopped working.

I can't create another Application endpoint, it says - APNS Sandbox certificate is invalid

and I can't update credentials, the error is - Request could not be completed (Service: AmazonSNS; Status Code: 500; Error Code: InternalError)

I am able to send push notification using the same p12 file with another software i.e. https://github.com/noodlewerk/NWPusher

What could be the problem? How can I troubleshoot this issue?

Please help.

Thank you!

The reason for the problem was that (this is my guess) - I sent push notification with incorrect format.

That must have returned error code and because of that the connection between Amazon SNS to Apple server was closed. (It should be kept open always) Because Apple thinks this as some kind of an attack.

The only remedy is wait for few hours and try again.

This is mentioned in the Technical Note here - https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/technotes/tn2265/_index.html
