No data

[Stuart Bercun]

I am using a 4 channel unit. The message is received per the log:

Sep 16 21:51:30 boa: recvlivelog: Non-polling message [index: 1]: 21:51:28, 13/09/16, +16093347339, Twentyone
Sep 16 21:51:30 boa: recvlivelog: Non-Polling delivery response from server: HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Sep 16 21:51:30 boa: recvlivelog: Non-Polling Receive API Delivery was successful.

However the receive.txt only contains the delimiters as if no data was passed.

Any ideas?

Hi Stuart,
It’s difficult to tell with the limited information. It appears from the logs that the message Twentyone was received and delivered.

Is this a new setup? Has it ever successfully delivered a message to your Non-polling server?

Bryon

[Stuart Bercun]

Thank you for the response.
This is a brand new installation.

I am trying to determine if it is the Apache server that is causing the problem. I am now looking in the manual to see if I can simulate a message to the server, properly formatted, to see if it functions.

The messages are being received properly at the device, but something during the transmission to the Apache seems to be going awry.

We have some sample code on the FTP site. Try using the PHP sample code as a test. It is a simple program that uses Apache. The HowTo.rtf file explains how to use the sample code.

The PHP sample code it in the folder at the link below:
https://webfiles.multitech.com/engineering/sample-code/sms-finder/PHP/

[Stuart Bercun]

I should have been clearer.

I am using the sample code from the web site.

It is interesting that the receive.txt file IS being written, so I am comfortable the the php script is running. I believe that the $data is blank.

Can you point me to the format of the http syntax that the device sends Apache?

Many thanks.

Here’s an example of the XML data that is sent:

XMLDATA=<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”ISO-8859-1″?>
<Response>
<Msg_Count>1</Msg_Count>
<MessageNotification>
<Message_Index>1</Message_Index>
<ModemNumber>1</ModemNumber>
<SenderNumber>17637425555</SenderNumber>
<Date>13/09/03</Date>
<Time>16:16:01</Time>
<EncodingFlag>ASCII</EncodingFlag>
<Message>TestSMS00002</Message>
</MessageNotification>
</Response>

Wireshark IP captures would show you the exact format that was sent and whether the message’s text was included.

[Stuart Bercun]

Excellent, thank you.
I see that Wireshark is get a properly formatted message.

It still appears that $data is blank in the sample ismsResponse.php.

I have not modified the code at all. To be sure, I copied the php from the zip and placed it in the directory. I know that it is being called because I see the creation of the receive.txt.

[Bryon Davis]

What are the versions of Apache and iSMS are you using?

Perhaps there has been a change made in the Apache version you are using. I can try testing it and see if it works for me.

[Stuart Bercun]

I am using
MultiModem™ iSMS
Web Management – Version 1.51.21

and Apache version 2.44

Your help is greatly appreciated.

[Stuart Bercun]

The issue resolved itself.

Not sure why, but I am no longer getting empty fields.

Thank you for your help.
