Hi all,
I'm using Nokia30 GPRS Modem and trying to
receive mms messages to the in dir with no luck.
the connction test in the mms settings is successful, so for all I know the nowsms should be able to download the mms when it gets an mms notification message. I can see the retries in the MMSINQ dir but nothing else (maybe a good log?).

tnx...

Hi Izik,

What do you have defined for the MMS Settings to be used when retrieving messages?

Usually the URL that is included in the MMS notification (which you should see referenced in the file in the MMSINQ directory) is on a private network, and is only accessible when you connect over GPRS (and usually only when you also connect through the operator's WAP gateway). As a pointer of reference, what do you see in the MMSINQ files that NowSMS is currently retrying?

When you configure the modem in the "SMSC" list in NowSMS, you need to then highlight the modem entry, press "Properties", and click "MMS Settings" to define these settings.

Which mobile operator are you connected to? What settings are you attempting to use?

To enable a debug log, manually create a file named MMSWAP.INI, and put the following contents in that file:

[MMSWAP]
Debug=Yes

This will cause the gateway to create an MMSWAPDEBUG.LOG as it runs and attempts connections.

(Note: It is best to disable this debug log by deleting this file once problems are resolved, as this log can get very large.)

Hi,
first, thanks for the response.
I had set the mmswap log and there it is

application/octet-streammmswap log
MMSWAPDEBUG.LOG (94.2 k)


this lines are repeating them selves:

1:53:19:987 GetCIDForAPN: Nokia 30 (Cable)
11:53:21:987 GetCIDForAPN: wap.orange.co.il
11:53:21:987 InitTAPI: Performing TAPI initialisation
11:53:22:034 OpenDevice: Unable to initialize modem: Error 80000048 from lineOpen
11:53:22:081 WSPRasDial: Before RasDial NowSMS - Nokia 30 (Cable)
11:53:22:112 WSPRasDial: Error 797 (31D) from RasDial
11:53:22:127 GetCIDForAPN: Nokia 30 (Cable)
11:53:22:127 GetCIDForAPN: wap.orange.co.il

and as asked there is the wap push link:
ContentLocation=http://192.168.220.15/servlets/mms?message-id=247503

tnx,
Izik.

Hi Izik,

Hmm.

I'm not sure how the connection test would be successful when you test the settings, as there appears to be a problem opening the modem.

I'm going to take a guess about what is occurring.

Since you are receiving the MMS notifications over SMS, is it possible that in NowSMS you have configured an SMSC entry pointing to the Nokia 30 where it points to the COM port number instead of the named driver?

If you do this, then NowSMS cannot make the switch between GPRS and SMS modes. You need to configure the SMSC link in NowSMS so that it uses the named modem driver, i.e., Nokia 30 (Cable), instead of a COM port number.

Hi,
well.. it's better, I can send and receive mms's
but the nowSms get "stuck" too often and returns to the old state (retries), in some cases
I can't send or receive sms's and then I have to restart the computer (restarting the services wont do).

Izik,

I'd suggest enabling the debug logs in the SMS gateway and the MMSC. (Edit SMSGW.INI, under [SMSGW] add Debug=Yes. Edit MMSC.INI, under [MMSC] add Debug=Yes.)

Restart the gateway services.

When it gets stuck, collect the debug logs (SMSDEBUG.LOG & MMSCDEBUG.LOG), ZIP them up and send them to nowsms@now.co.uk so that we can take a closer look.
