Android Question A question about receivers and foregroundServiceStartNotAllowed Exception

[tufanv]

Hello,

I am getting this error for a while. I don't have any "startserviceat" or similar. My questions:

1) Should I change starter service to reciever?
2) In my firebase messaging receiver, only sub that can trigger background start is fm_messagearrived sub. Mine is :

Sub fm_MessageArrived (Message As RemoteMessage)
    Log("Message arrived")
    Log($"Message data: ${Message.GetData}"$)
    Dim n2 As Notification
    n2.Initialize2(n2.IMPORTANCE_HIGH)
    n2.Icon = "icon"
    n2.Sound=True
    n2.SetInfo2(Message.GetData.Get("title"), Message.GetData.Get("body"),Message.GetData.Get("ilgili"), Main)
    n2.Notify(1)
    Main.notitite=Message.GetData.Get("title")
    Main.notitext=Message.GetData.Get("body")
    If Main.isactive Then
        CallSub(Main, "notiac")
    End If
  
End Sub

What can cause the foregroundServiceStartNotAllowed Exception here? callsub to a main? Or the error is coming from somewhere else?

My starter service has:

Sub Service_Start (StartingIntent As Intent)

    Service.StopAutomaticForeground 'remove if not using B4A v8+.

End Sub

this can cause it?

You need to update OkHttpUtils2.

OkHttpUtils2 v3.02

All previous versions of OkHttpUtils2 relied on a service. As it is no longer possible to start services when the app starts in the background, this configuration is problematic and it will fail in such cases (https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/receivers-and-httpjob.146181). In the new...
