If i kill the smsd, resend the sms, then look in /var/spool/sms/outgoing and all the sent files will be there.

heres my smsd.conf

devices = modem1
outgoing = /var/spool/sms/outgoing
checked = /var/spool/sms/checked
failed = /var/spool/sms/failed
incoming = /var/spool/sms/incoming
report = /var/spool/sms/report
sent = /var/spool/sms/sent
logfile = /var/log/sms/smstools.log
loglevel = 7
alarmlevel = 4
delaytime = 10
errorsleeptime = 10
blocktime = 3600
receive_before_send = yes
# autosplit 0=no 1=yes 2=with text numbers 3=concatenated
autosplit = 3
pidfile = /var/run/sms/smsd.pid


[queues]
OTHER = /var/spool/sms/outgoing


[provider]
OTHER = 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

[modem1]
init = ATE0+CPMS="SM","SM"
device = /dev/ttyS0
incoming = yes
queues = OTHER
mode = old
smsc = XXXXXXXXXXXX
baudrate = 9600
rtscts = yes
cs_convert = yes
report = yes
memory_start = 1



can we delay the time smsd reads the files in the queue?

Thanks, other than that, playsms and sms servertools are a great combo!

You have incorrect queue setting: OTHER cannot use /var/spool/sms/outgoing directory, because it's reserved for outgoing files. Create another directory, for example /var/spool/sms/queue_other, and change the definition.

With your setup, when one modem is running, using the queue means that SMS can be sent to any number other than short numbers. This is because there is no s in the list. I assume that you have wanted this limitation, otherwise there is no reason to use queues at all.

Thank for pointing that out Keke, I'm embarrassed! but was pretty tired when i posted

I have deleted the init string altogether and it works.


Have any other success stories with playsms, the version I have used is 0.9.4

Keke, I Appreciate your help!
