AdWhirl (AdMob, iAd) Ads not showing in released iPhone App

I have developed my first App which is free of charge ("Aviation DG"), and thus added adWhirl to it. However it seems that I have done something wrong. There are no ads showing at all. (Settings in AdWhirl: 90% iAd / 10% AdMob / 10% for 1 House Ad). I don't see any of them :(

In iAd i have 45 requests 0 impressions, in AdMob i have 152 requests 152 impressions, however they are not showing any ads (at least those people I have asked if they see the ads).

When I tested the app, it showed the Banner iAD Test (or whatever it says, the black banner from apple).

Do you know what I could have done wrong? Or are the things correctly installed and I just dont receive any ads. If so, why is that?

Thanks so much in advance for your help. This might be just a small project at the moment, but I intend to add Ad networks to other apps to and it would be nice to know why it's not working :)

Cheers Ronnie

Following is what I have done in xcode:

Added the folowing frameworks:

iAd / AVFoundation / CoreLocation / AddressBook / AudioToolbox / MapKit / MediaPlayer / MessageUI / QuartzCore / SystemConfiguration / libsqlite3.dylib / libz.dylib

Added the Folder TouchJSON, added the Folder AdWhirl from AdWhirl Ressources.

As I didn't find the Adapter settings as in the instruction PDF, I deleted all networks and have now the following files in the adapters folder:

• AdWhirlAdapterGoogleAdMobAds.h/.m
• AdWhirlAdapterIAd.h/.m
• AdWhirlAdNetworkAdapter.h

Then I aded the AdLibrary from adMob:

• GADBannerView.h
• GADBannerViewDelegate.h
• GADInterstitial.h
• GADInterstitialDelegate.h
• GADRequest.h
• GADRequestError.h
• libGoogleAdMobAds.a

Then I have changed the following part (in AdWhirlView.h), that the ad shows on the bottom of the page:

#define kAdWhirlAppVer 300

#define kAdWhirlViewWidth 320
#define kAdWhirlViewHeight 50
#define kAdWhirlViewDefaultSize \
                       (CGSizeMake(kAdWhirlViewWidth,
kAdWhirlViewHeight))
#define kAdWhirlViewDefaultFrame \
                       (CGRectMake(0,(460-
kAdWhirlViewHeight),kAdWhirlViewWidth, kAdWhirlViewHeight))

#define kA开发者_StackOverflow中文版dWhirlDefaultConfigURL @"http://mob.adwhirl.com/getInfo.php"
#define kAdWhirlDefaultImpMetricURL @"http://met.adwhirl.com/
exmet.php"
#define kAdWhirlDefaultClickMetricURL @"http://met.adwhirl.com/
exclick.php"
#define kAdWhirlDefaultCustomAdURL @"http://mob.adwhirl.com/
custom.php"
#define kAWMinimumTimeBetweenFreshAdRequests 4.9f
#define kAdWhirlAdRequestTimeout 10

in my view controller .m file I then have this:

#define kSampleAppKey @"x000x00000000x00000x000x0000x000" //the number
of my adwhirl appid

@implementation...

#pragma mark AdWhirlDelegate methods

- (NSString *)adWhirlApplicationKey{
   return kSampleAppKey;
}

- (UIViewController *)viewControllerForPresentingModalView{
   return self;
}

in the view did load:

   AdWhirlView *awView = [AdWhirlView
requestAdWhirlViewWithDelegate:self];

   [self.view addSubview:awView];

   [super viewDidLoad];

in the viewcontroller .h file:

#import "AdWhirlView.h"
#import "AdWhirlDelegateProtocol.h"

@interface Aviation_DGViewController : UIViewController
<ItemChooserDelegate, InfoDisplayDelegate, AdWhirlDelegate> {

Don't change AdWhirlView.h:

#define kAdWhirlViewDefaultFrame (CGRectMake(0,(460-kAdWhirlViewHeight),kAdWhirlViewWidth, kAdWhirlViewHeight))

You can have the ad at the bottom by playing with the coordinates, but what's behind the whole upper part of the screen will be inactive. So, leave it as:

#define kAdWhirlViewDefaultFrame (CGRectMake(0,0,kAdWhirlViewWidth, kAdWhirlViewHeight))

Instead, in -(void)viewDidLoad, center awView with awView.center:

AdWhirlView *awView = [AdWhirlView requestAdWhirlViewWithDelegate:self];

awView.center = CGPointMake(self.view.frame.size.width/2, self.view.frame.size.height-kAdWhirlViewHeight/2);

[self.view addSubview:awView];

Fill rates for iAds can be low at times especially if you don't have thousands of ad requests a day. It depends upon the country etc.

If you were seeing the iAds test ad in development then I suspect you have done nothing wrong.

I trust that you have downloaded your own app and are seeing house ads?

I can confirm from the code you posted that you set up AdWhirl correctly. I don't know what you're doing with the kAWMinimumTimeBetweenFreshAdRequests and kAdWhirlAdRequestTimeout, but what happens if don't set these values?

House Ads should be ready right away. This assumes you created a house ad and set it to show in your app. I would recommend trafficking 1 network at a time for testing (such as 100% house ads), and see if you get them.
