Hi Ke Ke,

I have something to clarify with you. Things are as follow:

- Validity from SMS FILE FORMAT is used in SMSD or ISP SERVER? It is used in which area?

- When smsd is moving the file around (Outgoing -> Checked -> Sent), will smsd overwrite the files in CHECKED and SENT folders? (Uniqueness of File name is measured by the whole SMS File related folders or only at the outgoing folder only?)

- How to interact with java programs when there is an event? Is there any sample for it?
(For  eventhandler  attribute in smsd.conf)

Thanks in advanced.

What I am trying to achieve is:

To send email to administrator when smsd fires up FAILED event and move the file to FAILED Folder. So that at least, someone knows there is a failed sms in SMS Server.

Thanks in advanced.

It is used in Service Center, smsd just include this value in the PDU, but does not do anything with it. If SMS is not delivered to the recipient during the validity period, Service Center stops trying and rejects a message. In this case the sender may receive a status report with a status 70, "Error,SM validity period expired". Also, sender does not receive a status report which tells "Ok,short message received by the SME".

By default files are overwritten. There is a global setting available: keep_filename = no. With this setting an unique name is created every time when a file is moved.

I do not have any samples with Java. However, any language can be used with eventhandler and checkhandler. Just define eventhandler = /path/to/your/Java.program and it's called every time when SMS is received, sent, or failed to send. This tells what are the command line arguments for the program.

If you define failed = /var/spool/sms/failed in the global part of smsd.conf, failed messages are stored.

If using Bash, this kind of eventhandler can send the email:



If your eventhandler is written using Java, just include this kind of functionality in your code. Also, you can define this Bash script as an eventhandler, and call Java from the script. In this case remember to include arguments, like:
/path/to/your/Java.program "$1" "$2" "$3"
