Hi I have created a site with pictures more like a web portal. What it does is that, the user can choose and select the picture/music n text to their handphone or some others. When the pictures/etc are choosed, I store most of the information in a database. Since I am using NOW SMS , I would like to send the data's to that gateway and then convert to MMS file so that the receiption can receive it using MMSCOMP. Am I right. I am using the basic HTTP post. What I am doing is retreving the information from the database using perl progam and posting it to the gateway so that it can convert to MMS file. The problem is when I do that it doesn't work? If I use a the SEND MMS browser it works. I am sending the file to the GATEways URL. Please advise. Thanks | |||

I'd like to see a debug file so that I can understand what the request is that you are sending to the Now SMS/MMS Gateway. Enable debug mode by manually editing SMSGW.INI, and under the [SMSGW] section header, add Debug=Yes. Then restart the gateway, and repeat your attempt. The information will be logged to the SMSDEBUG.LOG. Getting the formatting for an HTTP POST correct can be a challenge. You might want to download the v5.0 beta (http://www.nowsms.com/beta5), and one of the new features is that we allow the MMSFILE parameter to be specified in a GET request, so you can specify a URL from which the gateway should retrieve the multimedia objects.
