针对Chrome错误500的Google Cloud Messaging

Question

So I'm trying to send a message to a chrome extension through GCM, using php.

$data = json_encode(array(
        'channelId' => 'channel id here',
        'subchannelId' => '0',
        'payload'=>'test'
    ));

    $ch = curl_init();
    $curlConfig = array(
        CURLOPT_URL            => "https://www.googleapis.com/gcm_for_chrome/v1/messages",
        CURLOPT_POST           => true,
        CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
        CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS     => $data,
        CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER => false,
        CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER     => array(
            'Authorization: Bearer ' . $access_token,
            'Content-Type: application/json'
        )
    );
    curl_setopt_array($ch, $curlConfig);
    $result = curl_exec($ch);

Each request returns { "error": { "code": 500, "message": null } }. Thanks.

500 is the HTTP error code for internal error.

Sending a Google Cloud Message for Chrome from the Google oauthplayground website returns this for me:

HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error Content-length: 52 X-xss-protection: 1; mode=block X-content-type-options: nosniff X-google-cache-control: remote-fetch -content-encoding: gzip Server: GSE Reason: Internal Server Error Via: HTTP/1.1 GWA Cache-control: private, max-age=0 Date: Wed, 15 May 2013 07:01:40 GMT X-frame-options: SAMEORIGIN Content-type: application/json; charset=UTF-8 Expires: Wed, 15 May 2013 07:01:40 GMT { "error": { "code": 500, "message": null } }

According to Google's Cloud Message for Chrome docs:

An internal error has occurred. This indicates something went wrong on the Google server side (for example, some backend not working or errors in the HTTP post such as a missing access token).

Essentially there's something wrong on Google's side of things. Considering Google I/O is going to start in a few hours I would assume they're currently making some changes.

Try checking again in a few hours.
