Hi, anyone know smssend? I have just installed it and trying to send sms
but nothing happens. It does not give any error but the message i not
being delivered at the mobile phone.
Im using eurobate and have the latest provider file.

Trying to send with the following:
smssend eurobate.sms login/*username*/ password /*mypw*/ 4712345678
"Hi, sending from smssend"

it then pause for a few seconds and back to promt, no error. cant find any
logs either.
Any ideas?

I have an account at eurobyte.com, and also did by some extra sms to see
if it helped.

Looking at the eurobate.sms script there are five parameters required.
You have not used the network code.

With fewer than five parameters there should definitely be an error
message generated which informs you there are not enough arguments for
this provider.  However, there is a space between 'password' and
'/*mypw*/' which would (if what you have above is what you had on the
command line) make five parameters and that is why no error is reported.

For a log of the transaction append '-- -d5' to the command.  No
quotation marks of course.  A number of html files are written to disk
as well as to the console.  See 'SkyUtils-options' in the smssend
manual.

See where you get with:

smssend eurobate.sms username password network number "message"

Hi and thanks for reply

I did a test on a windoze box and it was working. Used the windows scrip
at debian and I was able to send but with errors:

ernst@balder $ smssend eurobate.sms username password  47 12345678 "new
message"
SmsSend Warning in provider loader : Unknown option : or 92 for Pakistan)
SmsSend Warning in provider loader : Unknown option : to the french
0612345678 gsm : +33612345678)
Result : Message should be on its way now
ernst@balder $

It did the same with:
0047 12345678 and
0047 +4712345678

By 'working' I assume you mean the recipient got the sms.  I find that
smssend itself is generally reliable but the quality of the scripts,
including any feedback they give, can vary.  Providers changing their
webpages will often break a script.

The lines in eurobate.sms beginning '%Network Convert' and '%Tel
Convert' should each be a single line.  My guess is that somehow or
other both have been broken into two lines.
