GameCricle not working on app after uploading to the store

Corona Marketplace Amazon GameCircle

@NobStudio 

I looked at the log file. If the error your getting is only occuring for Amazon and not on your local phone, then this seems to be the same API_Key issue. Looking in your log file, I can see the API Key Decoder issues. If the system can’t decode the API, then it can’t initialize the Leaderboards which is what is causing the Nullreference exception. 

As to a timeframe when this will be fixed, at the moment I can’t really say. While I developed the plugin, the API Key Decoder error is happening outside my plugin’s metaphorical jurisdiction. It’s occurring within the GameCircle SDK, while my plugin is merely trying to act as a middle-man between the Lua code and the Java SDK. 

Still, I will keep this board up to date, but as of right now Amazon has not gotten back to me regarding this issue. 

I am terribly sorry.

Thx for the update.

Thanks! I’ll wait for the issue to be resolved.

@jesse_busch,

Any updates on trying to get Amazon and Corona Labs to talk and get this worked out?

Not only that, but every time you reopen the api key window it will change the api key. My understanding is that Amazon will resign the app anyway when you submit the release version, so the release version will always have a valid key. But when you are testing, you can end up with an invalid key due to this really, really, really stupid issue. I have no idea what the logic behind it is.

I noticed that the downloaded key is wrong, but the one that appears when you click the Obtain Key link on their web site is always the same.

#47

We noticed that if you refresh the page then the key changes, we’ve noticed it on multiple occasions but perhaps it only happens to certain accounts or something?

@jesse_busch or Corona folks,

Any updates on trying to get this worked out?

@Alan QuizTix,

Nope, I was wrong.  I am seeing that now.  I didn’t look at the complete key.  I was looking at the start and seeing it the same.  Should have looked at the end as well.   :slight_smile:

Found out about the changing API key.  It is an Amazon issue, but not one that would be a problem.

Disappointed that this plugin got such big fanfare when it was finally released, but now seems to be just being ignored.

Hi guys - Amazon has someone working on this and I *think* there may be an update soon. I will post more info as soon as I know.

Glad to hear this, David.

Hopefully good news comes soon.
