Google CCS (GCM) - project not whitelisted

Question

I'm trying to get the Python code working that I found on: http://developer.android.com/google/gcm/ccs.html I've change the first 2 rows with (I think) the correct data. The projectnr and api key is fake, it's just to show you how it almost looks.

import sys, json, xmpp
SERVER = ('gcm.googleapis.com', 5235)
USERNAME = '489713985816'
PASSWORD = 'AIzd237jjN_iT7yRxLWiHRreqax45XaMJQ6VJ98'

I've created a google api project (tried it with 2 different projects). Activated GCM. Copied the following: Project Number: 489713985816 API key : AIzd237jjN_iT7yRxLWiHRreqax45XaMJQ6VJ98 Tried the code with a Key for server, and a key for browser apps, both with and without a specific IP address.

When I execute the code with #python ccs.py I get the following result: If this is my problem, how do I get my project whitelisted?

you might wan't to try the following guide http://www.androidhive.info/2012/10/android-push-notifications-using-google-cloud-messaging-gcm-php-and-mysql/

I was having the same problem that you are but following this guide has helped me get my push notifications through without having to sign up to be whitelisted.
