GCM registration issue from extension

[Asesh Shrestha]

Hi all, recently we have started to notice that Chromium's GCM registration fails from both our extension in our Chromium fork as well as from Chrome too. It was working till yesterday but all of a sudden, it's not working anymore.

The FCM id has been hidden and we tried the following code from dev-tools:

const FCM_SENDER_ID = "***";
chrome.gcm.register([FCM_SENDER_ID], function(registrationId) {
  if (chrome.runtime.lastError) {
    console.error("Failed to register for GCM (for push notifications):", chrome.runtime.lastError.message);
    return;
  }
  console.log("GCM Registration ID for push notifications:", registrationId);
});

// To receive messages:
chrome.gcm.onMessage.addListener(function(message) {
  console.log("Received GCM push message:", message);
});

Console.log doesn't log anything as it's failing.

I have uploaded a screenshot from the chrome://gcm-internals page. As you can see it continues to fail to register from both our extension with ID: jdbjambdaklncijmadilpibpedecgfao as well as com.google.android.gms.

The log from Chromium's log file:

It was working fine till yesterday but starting today, it keeps failing. Our FCM ID is valid too. Can someone give us some pointers to find out the root cause of this issue?

Thanks

NVM, looks like Google finally fixed this issue yesterday. It has started working again since yesterday.
