I am trying to execute the "simple" C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c echo ECHO @@FULLSMS@@ command. I see the sms arrive on the service tab SMS received counter. it does show up in the SMSIN-yyyymmdd log And this is the DebugLog: 12:25:03:484 [8] ThreadProcessInboundSMS: Processing 4C6C80D6.in... 12:25:03:484 [8] GetProgramToExecute: C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c echo ECHO @@FULLSMS@@ 12:25:03:484 [8] GetProgramToExecute: C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c echo ECHO Brand new attempt 12:25:03:484 [8] ThreadProcessInboundSMS: Executing C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c echo ECHO Brand new attempt 12:25:03:531 [8] ThreadProcessInboundSMS: Processing complete 4C6C80D6.in... 12:25:04:046 [2] ModemReceiveMessages: OK The question I have is why is the command window not opening and showing the body of the SMS? Does the /c close it too quickly for the naked eye to catch? I just want to make sure that the command to execute function is working correctly. Thanks- Alex | |||

I have not even see something like "12:25:03:484 [8] GetProgramToExecute: C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c echo ECHO @@FULLSMS@@ " in SMSDEBUG.LOG. But the incoming message does show up in SMSIN-20100901.LOG and under SMS-IN directory. Expecting expertise from NowSMS!!! | |||

One more thing: I'm testing with 60 days trial. Is this a limitation for trial edition? | |||

Hi Alex, NowSMS runs as a service process, so any 2-way commands also run in that con text. There will be no visible interaction on screen. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Hi, If there is no reference to the command in the SMSDEBUG.LOG but you see othe r information related to the message being received, then this suggests the c ommand is not configured. Make sure the Receive Phone Number configured for t he command is blank. And use a command prefix of *. Already received messages will not be reprocessed if a new command is define d. But you can rename *.SMS to *.IN in SMS-IN to force reprocessing. -- Des NowSMS Support > | |||

Hi Des- I added "> c:\eval\test_sms.txt" to the end of the command to force a file to be created, perhaps useful for other newbies like me! One more question: Is there a comprehensive list of @@ operators? I noticed that this site as well as the documentation may be missing some. For instance @@RECEIVEDSMSC@@. Thanks, Alex | |||

After remove "Phone number" it works well. It would be nice if the manual document can be updated. Thanks! | |||

Hi, The 'Receive Phone Number' field is used to limit a 2-way command so that it only applies to messages received for a particular number. So if you have m ore than one modem or are receiving for multiple numbers, you can define dif ferent commands for the numbers. If it is left blank it applies for message s received on any number. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Hi Alex, I'll make a note to review this. I know the web site is behind the PDF manua l version. We do need to update it. The PDF manual should be up-to-date. H owever, I'm not surprised that @@RECEIVEDSMSC@@ is not mentioned. It applies only to modem connections. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Thanks Des- Do you know if there is a way to select which @@ parameters are included in the .SMS files that arrive in the SMS-IN folder. We would like to have additional information as we are using two SMSC's that include varying information. Thanks, Alex | |||

Hi Alex, TLV parameter support can be enabled via the SMPPOptions settings. Unfortunately at this time, the settings are global so there can be confusio n if different servers use the same TLV option number for different settings . (As long as they do not overlap it is OK.) http://blog.nowsms.com/search/label/SMPPOptions Any of these options that are present in a received message are automaticall y appended to the 2-way command without requiring an @@ setting. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Hi Des, 1. Can SMPPOptions be set if using a GSM modem? 2. How do you find out what all is passed through in an SMS? Is that information from the SP or the modem manufacturer? Thanks, Alex | |||
| Des - NowSMS Support Board Administrator Username: Desosms Post Number: 2487 Registered: 08-2008 |
Hi Alex, No, SMPPOptions is very specific to SMPP environments. They are parameter settings specific to different provider implementations. SMS messages themselves have very little room for any extra information. ETSI GSM 03.40 is the specification that defines this. (A 3GPP spec supersedes this...I don't recall it's number at the moment.) -- Des NowSMS Support | |||
