Create pass for passbook in php

Question

Im trying to create dynamically coupons for my app. I have an PHP Server that create them. But i don't know why they doesn't work on the passbook.

If i create the pass from Terminal it works fine. But in PHP with PHP-PKPass.

I left the code in PHP below it appear in my computer the pass but it doesn't add into the passbook (also if I send it via e-mail)

Im 100% sure that passTypeIdentifier, teamIdentifier, Certificate and WWDR are 100% correctly

Note: all images exists

<?php
include ("conexion.php");
require('passpk/PKPass.php');

if (isset($_GET['cupon']) and $_GET['cupon'] != '' and $_GET['cupon'] > 0) {

    $cuponID = $_GET['cupon'];


    $pass = new PKPass\PKPass();

    $pass->setCertificate('./Certificate.p12');  // 2. Set the path to your Pass Certificate (.p12 file)
    $pass->setCertificatePassword('*******');     // 2. Set password for certificate
    $pass->setWWDRcertPath('./WWDR.pem'); // 3. Set the path to your WWDR Intermediate certificate (.pem file)

Looking at the console output as I attempted to install your pass, I see the following warning.

Mar 25 10:45:40 iPhone MobileSafari[279] <Warning>: Invalid data error reading pass pass.cuponice.cuponice/9. Pass dictionary must contain key 'value'.
Mar 25 10:45:40 iPhone MobileSafari[279] <Warning>: PassBook Pass download failed: The pass cannot be read because it isn't valid.

Digging into your pass.json, I see that your primaryFields dictionary does not contain a 'value' key.

    "primaryFields": [{
            "key": "key",
            "label": "30% de Descuento en Persianas"
        }
    ],

To fix, change your PHP to add a value key to your primaryFields dictionary.

$styleKeys = array(
    'coupon' => array(
        'primaryFields' => array(
            array(
                'key'   => 'key',
                'label' => "Label",
                'value' => ""
            )
        ),                            //...
