Hello,

What is the problem when I try to send a mms from the interface web with the option: "Send MMS Message" When I send the MMS I see the error: Unable to fetch URL: http://mms.orangemi/20040914/16/414755A2a.MMS.
I have the nowsms version v5.51, and I want to see the part or opcion where I can to provision the mmsc users and delete or modify.

Thanks..

Hi,

That means that you have NowSMS configured for "direct delivery" as an MMSC. And you have told NowSMS that it's host name is "mms.orangemi", which is probably not correct.

Please see http://www.nowsms.com/howmmsworks.htm for some background on how MMS works ... and how NowSMS can either be configured to perform direct delivery as an MMSC ... or to route messages through an existing operator MMSC.

If you go the direct delivery route, the "local host name or ip address" setting on the "MMSC" page of the NowSMS configuration dialog is used to build a dynamic URL that contains the content of messages that you send. That setting must resolve to a host name or IP address associated with the NowSMS server, otherwise delivery will most certainly fail.

In the case of the error that you site, NowSMS is validating that the the host name configured for that setting is correct, and it is not.
