sms status

I got it to work. That means Kel45 and I have been missing some steps.

Here then are the steps I followed.

1) Save the following as the file C:\Coldfusion8\sms_gw\smsListener.cfc
======================================================

<cfcomponent>
<cffunction name="onIncomingMessage">
<cfargument name="cfEvent" required="yes" type="struct">

<cfset var msg = arguments.cfEvent.data.message>
<cflog file="smsTestRecord" text="sms log message">
<!--- Use actual e-mail addresses --->
<cfmail to="email1@domain1" from="email2@domain2" subject="SMS gateway test">
<cfoutput>#msg#</cfoutput>
</cfmail>
<cfreturn>
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>

2) Save the following as the file C:\Coldfusion8\sms_gw\config\smsConfig.cfg
==========================================================

#
# SMSGateway configuration file
# Test server config
#

# This is the IP address of SMSC
ip-address=127.0.0.1

# Port to bind to
port=7901

# Your system id
system-id=cf

# Your password
password=cf

# The source address for this client
source-ton=1
source-npi=1
# This is a made-up address
source-address=5551213

# The address range this smpp client will serve
# Generally the same as your source address
addr-ton=1
addr-npi=1
address-range=5551213

# Message sending rate; how many messages per second is the
# gateway allowed to send to your service provider.
# This can be a decimal (i.e. 0.1). 0 is unlimited.
# The default is 100 messages per second.
message-rate=100.0

# The mode of the gateway; Either synchronous or asynchronous
# In synchronous mode the gateway will wait for the response
# from the server when sending a message and the SendGatewayMessage()
# CFML function will return the SMS messageID of the message
# or an empty string if their is an error. In asynchronous mode,
# the gateway will not wait for a response and the SMS messageID
# will NOT be returned from SendGatewayMessage().
# The default is synchronous.
mode=synchronous

# Should the gateway retry delivery on Network Errors?
# If a network error occurs while trying to deliver a message,
# should the message be queued for delivery when the gateway
# is able to re-bind to the SMSC. This is useful if the gateway
# is in asynchronous mode, where no error status is returned from
# the CFML SendGatewayMessage() function.
# The default is no.
network-retry=no

# Should the gateway retry delievery on Transient Errors?
# If an error is returned from the SMSC that indicates
# the message may be able to be delivered in the future,
# should the gateway attemp to resend send the message?
# This is useful if the gateway is in asynchronous mode,
# where no error status is returned from the CFML
# SendGatewayMessage() function.
# The default is no.
transient-retry=no

##################################################
# Everything below here is usually OK.
##################################################

# The function in the Gateway CFC which the is called
# when an incoming message arrives.
#
cfc-method=onIncomingMessage

# The default destination address info
destination-ton=1
destination-npi=1
# You can't have a default destination
# destination-address=


# The service type can be empty or one of
# the following values:
# CMT, CPT, VMN, VMA, WAP or USSD
# service-type=

# From the spec:
# Identifies the type of system requesting the bind.
# This may enable SMSC responses which are
# particular to a given type of ESME.
system-type=SMPP

# The receive timeout is a timeout for trying to receive a message
# from the SMSC. If you want go to infinite wait until a PDU
# is received, set the receive-timeout to -1.
# The value is in seconds. The default is 30 seconds.
receive-timeout=10

# The ping interval is how often the SMS Gateway will send an
# EnquireLink PDU to the server to verify the health of the connection.
# The value is in seconds. The default is 60 seconds.
ping-interval=60

# The number of connection attempts the gateway will make until it gives up.
# Use -1 to retry until connected. The default is -1 (try forever).
retries=-1

# Connection retry interval; how long to wait between connection attemps.
# The value is in seconds. The default is 10 seconds.
retry-interval=10


3) On the Gateway Settings page in the Administrator, start the SMS Test Server.
=============================================================

4) On the Gateway Instances page in the Administrator, add the following new instance
=================================================================

Gateway ID: smsTest
Gateway Type: SMS - Handles SMS text messaging
CFC Path: C:\Coldfusion8\sms_gw\smsListener.cfc
Configuration File: C:\Coldfusion8\sms_gw\config\smsConfig.cfg
Startup Mode: Automatic

5) Start the SMS instance.
=====================

If necessary, press the Refresh button after a few seconds to go from 'Starting' to 'Running'.

6) In C:\Coldfusion8\bin, double-click on SMSClient.bat to start the client
=======================================================

7) Click on the Connect button
========================

8) Enter the value 5551213 in the field 'Send SMS to:'
=========================================

That is the value in the configuration file.

9) Enter some text (e.g. Eureka! It works!) in the message field. Press Send.
=========================================================

10) Check the email account and Coldfusion log directory to confirm it worked
=========================================================

Hi i have tested your code exactly but i still get no email i do however get a logfile entry

so i tried doing this
<cflog file="smsTestCraig" text="#retValue#">
but then i get no entry?

how can i test adding the retValue to the logfile?

Hi Thanks, but that is the tutorial i used to setup this up!!

i can send sms find using what i have, its the sms status i need to get via the onIncomingMessage method, but i cannot get this working, and in that example it is not clear what is required for the sms status

yes the cfmail does work i use it all over the site

so how does the actual status come back in do i have to request it from the smc?

i am currently sending like this
<cfscript>
/* Create a structure that contains the message. */
msg = structNew();
msg.command = "submit";
msg.destAddress = "447777777777";
msg.sourceAddress = "+44777777777";
msg.shortMessage = form.SMSMessage;

ret = sendGatewayMessage("SMS Menu App - 5551212", msg);
</cfscript>

ok thank you, just been testing this with cfmail but i dont get an email, i am just using the main.cfc which i have altered the onIncomingMessage just to send me a email as below, do i have to specify some when sending the sms that i want message status updates?


<cffunction name="onIncomingMessage>
<cfargument name="CFEvent" type="struct" required="yes">
<!--- Get the message --->
<cfset data=cfevent.DATA>
<cfset message="#data.message#">
<!--- send the return message back --->

<cfmail to = "email" type="html" from = "email" subject = "income test"
username = "email" password = "email" server = "email" port = "25">
<cfdump var="#data#">
</cfmail>
<cfreturn retValue>
</cffunction>

ok thanks so can i just add my stored proc to the onIncomingMessage function and that will automaically pic up any sms statuses that come in?
