I have my "Process Received SMS message" task posting (actually GETing) the contents of the incoming message to an http:// address. However now it's repeatedly posting the same message, sometimes once every 2 minutes, sometimes like 50 or 60 times at once... and there's no feedback loop. How do I fix this? Thanks | |||

Hi Josh, This means that your script is returning an error response. Enable the debug log in NowSMS by manually editing the SMSGW.INI file and adding Debug=Yes under the [SMSGW] section header. Then restart the NowSMS service. Post the relevant part of the SMSDEBUG.LOG where it shows the HTTP command that is being executed for your callback script. Perhaps there is something about the parameters being passed that your script does not like, causing an error to be returned back (which causes NowSMS to retry). Or perhaps there is something about the message that is causing NowSMS to generate an invalid URL request. I seem to recall an issue recently where a tab character in an SMS message caused NowSMS to generate an invalid URL format ... also Unicode messages longer than several hundred characters could cause a problem. Both of those issues are fixed in the v5.50 version, which is still in beta at the time of this message posting (see http://www.nowsms.com/newsletter). I'd be curious to see the information from the SMSDEBUG.LOG ... so either post it here or e-mail to nowsms@now.co.uk. -bn | |||
