Hello Guys, Could you please give me some help? I am trying to route INCOMING sms messages to a SMPP client using the 2-way route SMS to local user "user" but the problem is, messages never appear on the smsnow interface and also never arrive on my smpp client... I Also tried using the users configuration "route received messages to user via SMPP" but that also not worked... I am using version 2010.02.10 | |||

Hi Bruno, This issue occurs with some modems. We are overdue posting an update for NowSMS Lite to address this. There is a very simple work-around. Locate the SMSGW.INI file. On most system this is in the ProgramData\NowSMS directory. (On some older Windows versions, including XP, it will be in Program Files\NowSMS.) Look for the section header in this file that looks like this: [Modem - your driver name here] Directly under that header, insert a new line with the following text: PhoneNumber=11111111111 Substitute your number for 11111111111. This number is not necessarily significant, other than it will be inserted as the destination/recipient address in the SMPP message that is delivered to your SMPP client. NowSMS normally reads this phone number from the modem, but if the modem doesn't make it available, it relies on this configuration setting. If no number is available, the SMPP server refuses to deliver the message, which is what causes the problem. In any event, apply this setting, and it will resolve the problem. Meanwhile, as we have already applied a fix to the full version of NowSMS to automatically use a dummy value in this scenario, I will check on the status of having this fix applied to NowSMS Lite. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Follow-up ... I got our product manager to post the latest build of NowSMS Lite to the web site. So if you want to avoid the manual SMSGW.INI file update, you can re-download the latest version. Sorry for the inconvenience! -- Des NowSMS Support | |||
