Hi,

First of all, my english is not very good.So i'll try to explain my problem.

I have already a sms server running and its sending and receiving SMS.I have set report = yes in smsd.conf file and also in SMS header.But the report folder remains empty even after sending SMS.When I send a SMS to a turned off phone its message go to sent folder.Is that correct?

I have a nokia n95 8gb and when i send a SMS to a phone that is turned off, on the n95 screen appears "pending".If I turn on the phone, the status change from "pending" to "sent".I want to do the same thing in smsd but I don't know how.I need to know when I send a SMS to a client and his phone is turned off and he couldnt read it.

I have already set the permissions of the report folder the same of the others folder(incoming, outgoing, failed...)

here is my config file



thanks

It is correct, because the SMS is sent to the Service Center which will try to deliver it.

As you have not received status reports, some settings should be checked. The manual of this device gives the impression that available memories are SM and ME. You could check this:

- Stop the smsd if it's running.
- Start it in the communication mode: smsd -C GSM1
- Follow the instructions on screen.
- Type ATE1 (and Enter) to set "echo on".
- Type AT+CPMS=?
- Also type AT+CNMI=?
- and AT+CNMI?

What are the results?

Next, use loglevel = 7 and modem setting init2=AT+CNMI=2,0,0,1,0 .
Restart the smsd and send a message (to the phone which is switched on). After sending, there should be line(s) containing "+CMT" in the log. Show the part of a log here. If necessary, you can protect it by using Private tags.

As long as status report with a status "0 - Ok,short message received by the SME" is not received, N95 says "pending", and after that report is received, the status is "sent".

The smsd can do the same, but using different words. In the scripts directory of a package, there is a script eventhandler_report. When this script is used as an eventhandler, or part of it, it will store delivery timestamp to the sent message when a status report is received. The header used for this is called "Received".

There is also another example, called regular_run. The second part of it can be used to send messages to alternate numbers, if Alternate_to is defined in the message and message is not delivered within a given time.

Here are the results:

ATE1
OK
AT+CPMS = ?
+CPMS: (“ME”,”SM”),(“ME”,”SM”),(“ME”,”SM”)
OK
AT+CNMI=?
+CNMI: (2),(0,1,3),(0,2),(0,1),(0)
OK
AT+CNMI?
+CNMI: 2,0,0,0,0
OK

i did not find lines containing "+CMT".here is the log:

Hidden private text.

Ok, there is no "SR" (status report) memory existing in your device.

You have stopped smsd very quickly. The message was sent 13:53:55 and smsd was terminated 13:54:04. It may be possible that status report was on it's way, and you have lost it. Perhaps you could try again, and wait several minutes if there is status report coming.

That's mean I can't receive reports?
could this be happening because of some setting in the phone??

I sent again the SMS and after some minutes, the folder is still empty.

Any more idea?

thanks for your help!

I just wanted to check if there is SR memory or not, because if status reports are stored into the different memory, different reading should be used.

Probably yes, but I do not know about settings in that phone.

It surely is empty, because 3.1 does not handle routed status reports. But was there any +CMT lines in the log?

Anyways, I think that this device does not support all features through the external interface, and therefore you should buy a real modem...

Thank you for helping!
God bless you!
