I have a web front end in front of the now.sms HTTP interface. I just sent a bunch of MMS messages to the HTTP interface and and they were all accepted fine, however I can't seem to find a way of testing if they have actually been submitted to the MMSC (I'm using MM1/GPRS). I can visually monitor the MMSC log and see them slowly being sent. I would like a way to test if the queue is empty so I can throttle my http submissions i.e. get realtime feedback on whether the message has been sent to the MMSC and not just to now.sms. I hope this is clear, other than that now.sms is fantastic. | |||

Hi Zak, No, we don't have any real time information. All you can do is poll for *.REQ files in the Q directory (outbound SMS), and *.MMS files in the VASPQ directory (outbound MMS via "MMSC Routing" connections). -bn | |||

Thanks Bryce, It may be related, what do the HTTP callbacks do? I've read about modifying the ini files to add accounting callbacks. What events are they actually signifying? I currently have my own accounting system where I log HTTP submissions and assume everything is ok if I get a HTTP status ok code. Thanks, Zak | |||

Hi Zak, The callbacks are for situations where you have multiple users or applications submitting SMS messages. It's a way for you to track these submissions external to NowSMS, and maintain your own accounting and quotas. Currently it does not provide any callbacks for when messages are actually dispatched from the NowSMS server, although this is one of the feature extensinos that we are currently looking at for a future release. -bn |
