Hi Keke,

I have read this post, based on that I have some questions to ask you about.

1. Does the checkhandler read the files from Outgoing folder?
2. I have saved a file (from html) that has many "To:" header and also the body of the message at the end, but why I only be able to send message for the last "To: recipient" ?
3. I have seen the mysql table (sms_log) that all the To: recipients are stored on the same column (receiver), is there any way to break those To: recipients and store the number on the column one by one?

Thank you in advance.

Yes, the sample checkhandler reads /var/spool/sms/outgoing.

It sounds like you have not defined checkhandler in the smsd.conf. When checkhandler does not modify the message file, smsd will read all To: headers and only the latest value is used. Assuming that you have stored the script as /usr/local/bin/smsd_checkhandler.sh, in the global part of smsd.conf (top of a file) define:
checkhandler = /usr/local/bin/smsd_checkhandler.sh

Have you checked this topic: Sample eventhandler to store messages into SQL database?

Thank you for your quick response Keke.

is .sh extension required on the file name?

Yes, I have read it, and I have used it for a normal (single recipient) sms. When I use it for multiple recipients, all the recipients are stored into the same column and are counted as 1 value.

What I was trying to ask is that, if I send to multiple recipients
for example:
To: recipient_1 To: recipient_2 To: etc. "Body messages".

So, can it be stored to mysql into 2 values (different recipients but the same message)?
The values that will be stored into mysql:
To: recipient_1 "Body message" ---- To: recipient_2 "Body message"

.sh extension is not required. It is used because some editors do not apply syntax highlight without it. It also tells that the file is shell script, ls *.sh can be used.

Your system does not run checkhandler properly. Ensure that you have correct script in correct place, and have checkhandler = /path/to/your/checkhandler defined in the smsd.conf. After changing the configuration, you need to restart the smsd.

If you still do not get the system working, show the smsd.conf here, and also the checkhandler script, if you have modified it. Tell what version of smsd you are running, and on what OS.

First of all, Happy New Year mate, and sorry for the late reply.


Below is my checkhandler file and to be honest, I copied the whole thing from the post to my server without any changes to be made.
#!/bin/bash # Sample script to allow multiple recipients in one message file. # Define this script as a checkhandler. outgoing="/var/spool/sms/outgoing" recipients=`formail -zx "To:" < "$1"` #count=`echo "$recipients" | wc -l` count=`echo "$recipients" | wc -w` if [ $count -gt 1 ]; then # Will need echo which accepts -n argument: ECHO=echo case `uname` in SunOS) ECHO=/usr/ucb/echo ;; esac messagebody=`sed -e '1,/^$/ d' < "$1"` headers=`formail -X "" -I "To:" -f < "$1"` for recipient in $recipients do file=`mktemp $outgoing/send_XXXXXX` $ECHO "To: $recipient" > $file if [ "x$headers" != "x" ]; then $ECHO "$headers" >> $file fi $ECHO "" >> $file $ECHO -n "$messagebody" >> $file done # Remove processed file: rm $1 # Tell to smsd that checkhandler has spooled this message: exit 2 fi exit 0

Here is my smsd.conf
# Example smsd.conf. Read the manual for a description devices = GSM1 logfile = /usr/logdata/smsdlog/smsd.log loglevel = 7 smart_logging = yes outgoing = /var/spool/sms/outgoing checked = /var/spool/sms/checked incoming = /var/spool/sms/incoming eventhandler = /usr/local/bin/mysmsd checkhandler = /usr/local/bin/multiplesms stats = /var/spool/sms/stats [queues] INDONESIA = /var/spool/sms/INDONESIA OTHER = /var/spool/sms/OTHER [provider] INDONESIA = 62 OTHER = 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 [GSM1] device = /dev/cuau2 pre_init = yes init = AT+CPMS="ME","ME","MT" incoming = yes outgoing = yes queues = INDONESIA, OTHER smsc = 6281100000 #pin = 1111 memory_start = 0 baudrate = 19200 mode = new rtscts = yes cs_convert = yes

I'm using version 3 of smstools and it is running on FreeBSD v8.0 OS

Probably you do not have formail program available. Try which formail, and if it is not found, install procmail package. Latest versions of smsd will also show error messages in the log, if checkhandler encounters any errors.

Something like this:

In fact it was more easy that i was trying to do...
thanks for your replay i have it almost done, there is only on prob. i cant get some acentuate charset like á à ã every all are working fine.

there is my code:

#!/bin/bash # Sample script to allow multiple recipients in one message file. # Define this script as a checkhandler. outgoing="/var/spool/sms/outgoing" recipients=`formail -zx "To:" < "$1"` #count=`echo "$recipients" | wc -l` count=`echo "$recipients" | wc -w` if [ $count -gt 1 ]; then # Will need echo which accepts -n argument: ECHO=echo case `uname` in SunOS) ECHO=/usr/ucb/echo ;; esac #messagebody=`sed -e '1,/^$/ d' < "$TMPFILE"` messagebody=`sed -e '1,/^$/ d' < "$1"` headers=`formail -X "" -I "To:" -f < "$1"` for recipient in $recipients do file=`mktemp $outgoing/send_XXXXXX` $ECHO "To: $recipient" > $file if [ "x$headers" != "x" ]; then $ECHO "$headers" >> $file fi $ECHO "" >> $file $ECHO -n "$messagebody" >> $file if sed -e '/^$/ q' < "$1" | grep "^Alphabet: UTF-8" > /dev/null; then TMPFILE=`mktemp /tmp/smsd_XXXXXX` sed -e '/^$/ q' < "$1" | sed -e 's/Alphabet: UTF-8/Alphabet: UCS2/g' > $TMPFILE sed -e '1,/^$/ d' < $1 | iconv -f UTF-8 -t UNICODEBIG >> $TMPFILE mv $TMPFILE $1 fi done # Remove processed file: rm $1 # Tell to smsd that checkhandler has spooled this message: exit 2 fi exit 0

When the conversion is done inside the loop, a variable $file must be used instead of $1.

However, the loop is not executed if there is only one recipient in the SMS file. The following version makes the conversion once, and with single recipient too. Also note, that SMS file must include a header "Alphabet: UTF-8" when it is known that there are characters outside the GSM alphabet.

Thanks i will make a try and get you know. thanks
