Hi, I am using demo version of NowSMS. I am trying to send an MMS from my application to a client device. As I see in my application logs, the MMS is being sent OK (on a second try, the first being Timed-Out for some reason). Thing is, I see (in the NowSMS GUi) that the message is received, processed, and sent, but the actual message does not reach the device... ANY IDEAS ANYBODY ?? The log print from NowSMS (MMSC-20100727.LOG): 2010-07-27 15:00:05,MMSIN,10.1.0.85,VASP:10.1.0.85,0545224116,20100727/15/EA8B68C4,SAR-0545 224116-45-2-1.req,27930 2010-07-27 15:00:05,MMSIN,10.1.0.85,VASP:10.1.0.85,0545224116,20100727/15/EA8B68C4,SAR-0545 224116-45-2-2.req,27930 } | |||

Hi Koby, There are two different ways to configure NowSMS for MMS message sending. The default configuration is NowSMS as a direct delivery MMSC. This option is good for mobile operators, and mobile phone testing facilities. However, this configuration will not work for typical content provider or end user environments, because most mobile operators block external MMSCs from delivering MMS messages, requiring messages to go through the operator MMSC. The alternate configuration is to send MMS messages via a modem using the operator MMSC. These configuration options, and an explanation of how MMS works can be found at http://www.nowsms.com/howmmsworks.htm. A guide that explains how to configure NowSMS to send MMS messages via an operator MMSC over a modem can be found here: http://www.nowsms.com/documentation/quickstartguide/NowSMSQuickStart3.pdf If you have any follow-up questions after reviewing these links, please do not hesitate to ask. -- Des NowSMS Support P.S. - In the direct delivery MMSC scenario, just because a message has been sent does not mean that the recipient has picked it up. The "MMS Retrieved" counter increments when a receiving device retrieves a message in that type of configuration. | |||
