I can read about the shared memory module for unix, but i dont know how to install it in my cygwin.

And how to i setup status/statistic file ?

On Cygwin you need to install shared memory allocation from sources.

Download the package OSSP mm from http://www.ossp.org/.

Extract it to /usr/local/src.

In the package there is a file named INSTALL. Follow those instructions. For ./configure you can give --prefix=/usr argument.

After compilation and installation is successfully done, you can enable statistics in the Makefile of smsd and recompile with make clean smsd.

In the smsd.conf, define a global settings:

stats_interval = 0
stats = /var/spool/sms/stats

Create this directory and make it writable for smsd.

After restarting smsd, you should have a file /var/spool/sms/stats/status.

Hi Keke

I have now followed your guide above, but my make clean smsd makes this error.

# make clean smsd cd src && make - clean make[1]: Entering directory `/smstools3/src' rm -f *.o smsd *.exe *~ make[1]: Leaving directory `/smstools3/src' make: *** No rule to make target `smsd'. Stop.

Unfortunately this error still occurs in the smsd.log
2010-10-15 22:03:10,4, smsd: Note that at least GSM1 will send administrative messages, but mainspooler will not because shared memory is not available.

I ran make test with no errors.

Thans so mutch for your support, u are awesome.

I forgot to say that with smsd you need to be in the src directory.

Makefile in this directory should be edited:

# Comment this out, to enable statistics #CFLAGS += -D NOSTATS

and after this run make clean smsd.

Also, a new smsd should be copied to the directory of executables:

cp -p smsd `which smsd`

Hi Keke!


YOU ARE REALY THE MAN!!! ... now it works too, thank you so mutch.

I only forgot to be in the /smstools3/src directory before I run the make clean smsd ... sorry, my mistake.

 I will ask my boss to make a donation to you because you are so awesome .
