I don't think any of this is related to the error that you are seeing.

I assume that you are getting an error back on your phone each time that you attempt to send a message?

However, I don't see any indication of a problem in this area in the logs.

In the log above, what I see is this:


quote:

2003-10-27 09:29:49,MMSRETRIEVE,165.213.141.225,,,20031027/09/3F9C66EDa.MMS,OK,63




Ignore that one for now ... it looks like a message was sent from the web interface and this is most likely just a loopback validation of the MMSC URL.


quote:

2003-10-27 11:16:34,MMSIN,165.213.143.87,admin,,User Not Defined,FAILED
2003-10-27 11:17:48,MMSIN,165.213.143.87,admin,,User Not Defined,FAILED




The above entries are also probably insignificant. An attempt was made to connect to a URL of "/admin".


quote:

11:29:33,MMSIN,165.213.143.87,+1234,hyungoo.ji@samsung.com,20031027/11/35E33B8C, 00000180.RFC,610




An MMS message was submitted by "+1234", to send to "hyungoo.ji@samsung.com".


quote:

11:29:42,MMSIN,,MMS.Delivery@samsung.com,+1234,20031027/11/3976ECCA,SAR-+1234-16 -2-1.req,317
2003-10-27 11:29:42,MMSIN,,MMS.Delivery@samsung.com,+1234,20031027/11/3976ECCA,SAR-+1234-16 -2-2.req,317




This is a delivery report going back to "+1234". Most likely based upon this log, this is a non-delivery report. The SMTP server probably was not able to send the message through the configured relay host, so a non-delivery notification is going back to the sender. An MMS notification for this non-delivery message is being queued for delivery via SMS (2 part SMS).

2003-10-27 11:44:47,MMSIN,165.213.143.87,+1234,+1234,20031027/11/910C8908,SAR-+1234-18-2-1. req,602

These are 2 MMS messages being sent from "+1234" to "+1234". MMS notifications are being queued for delivery via SMS.

So where to go from here

Based upon your e-mail address, I'm assuming that you're a handset developer. So I'm going to take a rather technically oriented approach.

I'd suggest enabling debug mode on the MMSC. Manually edit MMSC.INI, and under the [MMSC] section header, add Debug=Yes. Then restart the MMSC service.

Repeat your attempt. As the MMSC runs, it will create an MMSCDEBUG.LOG file. This file will contain complete hex dumps of a lot of the data sent and received ... and I think you should see a hex dump of the HTTP response from the MMSC to your request.

Since the WAP gateway is going to translate the HTTP response, you might need to take a closer look at the data that the handset is receiving back from the WAP gateway. (Ethereal is a great tool for analysing this type of communication.)
