Dear sirs!
Is it possible to redirect SMS-IN folder to another path, instead of default - NowSMS\SMS-IN ?
And the same question regarding "q" folders inside of USERS/user_name folders. We know, it is possible to redirect the whole USERS folder, but we are interesting only in redirection of "q" folders. Is there any options in regard of that?

Hi Alexander,

Yes, there are a variety of settings for relocating these directories.

QDir=d:\path or QDir=\server\path

This setting can be applied in the [SMSGW] section of the SMSGW.INI file to specify the location of the outbound SMS message queue. By default this is the "Q" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation.

BulkQDir=d:\path or BulkQDir=\server\path

This setting can be applied in the [SMSGW] section of the SMSGW.INI file to specify the location of the outbound bulk SMS message queue. This message queue is used only when the web interface is used to submit the same message to a large number of recipients. By default this is the "BulkQ" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation.

MessageIDTrackingDir=d:\path or MessageIDTrackingDir=\server\path

This setting can be applied in the [SMSGW] section of the SMSGW.INI file to specify the location of the SMPP receipt message id tracking database. By default this is the "SMPPData" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation.

UsersDir=d:\path or UsersDir=\server\path

This setting can be applied in the [SMSGW] section of the SMSGW.INI file to specify the location of the "SMS Users" database, which contains all "SMS Users" account information and pending message queues. By default this is the "Users" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation and the SMSUsers.D2A/D2I files in the NowSMS directory.

SMSInDir=d:\path or SMSInDir=\server\path

This setting can be applied in the [SMSGW] section of the SMSGW.INI file to specify the location of the SMS-IN directory which is used to queue received SMS messages that are pending for delivery to a 2-way command. By default this is the "SMS-IN" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation.

DataDir=d:\path or DataDir=\server\path

This setting can be applied in the [MMSC] section of the MMSC.INI file to specify the location of the MMS Message Store for messages pending delivery. By default this is the "MMSCData" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation.

MMSDir=d:\path or MMSDir=\server\path

This setting can be applied in the [MMSC] section of the MMSC.INI file to specify the location of the MMS-IN directory that is used when received MMS messages are converted to a file/ directory based interface. By default this is the "MMS-IN" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation.

MMSCUsersDir=d:\path or MMSCUsersDir=\server\path

This setting can be applied in the [MMSC] section of the MMSC.INI file to specify the location of the "MMSC Users" database. By default this is the "MMSCUsers" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation, and the MMSCUsers.DB file in the NowSMS directory.

MMSSMSDataDir=d:\path or MMSSMSDataDir=\server\path

This setting can be applied in the [MMSC] section of the MMSC.INI file to specify the location of the MMS Message Store for messages that have been converted to an "SMS with web link". By default this is the "MMSSMS" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation.

VASPConfigDir=d:\path or VASPConfigDir=\server\path

This setting can be applied in the [MMSC] section of the MMSC.INI file to specify the location of all configuration information for incoming and outgoing MMSC routes (e.g., "MMSC VASP" and "MMSC Routing" definitions). By default this is the "VASPIN" and "VASPOUT" subdirectories of the NowSMS installation, along with the VASPIN.D2A/D2I and VASPOUT.D2A/D2I files.

VASPQDir=d:\path or VASPQDir=\server\path

This setting can be applied in the [MMSC] section of the MMSC.INI file to specify the location of the MMS message queue for messages pending delivery to an external MMSC ("MMSC Routing"). By default this is the "VASPQ" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation.

P.S. - Recent updates (2010.01.27) have also had some additional parameters to allow more control over the USERS directory structure, separating the message queue and log files.

* SMS Gateway/SMPP Client: Update configuration parameter that allows the "users" directory to be moved to another location other than beneath the NowSMS program directory. This directory contains queues of received messages waiting for SMPP or POP3 clients, as well as user specific log files. Under the [SMSGW] header in SMSGW.INI, use UsersDir=d:\path\ or UsersDir=\Server\Volume\path\ to specify the location of the SMS "users" directory. When this parameter is set, the "SMS Users" database files (SMSUSERS.D2A and SMSUSERS.D2I) will also be located in this directory (by default, when this parameter is not set, these files are in the NowSMS program directory). With this release, it is now possible to separate the queued messages and log files from other user related data. Under the [SMSGW] header, use UsersQDir=d:\path\ or UsersQDir=\Server\Volume\path\ to specify the location of the user directories that will hold queued messages only. Under the [SMSGW] header, use UsersLogDir=d:\path\ or UsersLogDir=\Server\Volume\path\ to specify the location of the user directories that will hold log files. Other user directories and files will be stored relative to the "UsersDir=" setting, or in their default location if "UsersDir=" is not present.
