Chapter 5. Configuring SMS Messaging Server

 Queue Files Directory – Location of the directory where the service writes incoming and

outgoing messages. To improve performance, you can assign a different directory (for

instance: a high-speed RAID configuration);

 Message Database Connection String – Indicates the location of the message database. By

default, this connection string is set to

<INSTALL-DIR>\MSG\MESSAGES.MDB. When

migrating the message database to another database (for instance: MS SQL), you must modify

this field;

 Enable Archiving – Enable Archiving if you want to move messages periodically to the

Archive Database indicated by the Archive Connection String.

It’s a good practice to move messages to an Archive Database periodically; it ensures a good

performance of the system, especially when your database is growing large. It is

recommended to have not more than 100.000 records in your Message Database. If you have

more, the performance of your Message Views may decrease dramatically.

By default, archiving is enabled;

 Archive Connection String – Indicates the location of the archive database. By default, this

connection string is set to

<INSTALL-DIR>\MSG\ARCHIVE.MDB. When migrating the

message database to another database (for instance: MS SQL), this field must be modified;

 Archive after x Days – If archiving is enabled, all messages older than x days will be moved

to the Archive Database indicated by the ‘Archive Connection String’ field;

 Max. Pending Time – Maximum number of hours that a message should remain pending or

waiting for acknowledgement. If it takes longer than this threshold, the message will fail.

‘Max. Pending Time’ only applies to outgoing messages.

The General Program Options are stored in the

OPTIONS table of the configuration database.

Changes to the General Program Options will be detected automatically by the SMS Messaging

Server service (you do not need to restart the service).

5.3. Channels (Communication Settings)

A ‘Channel’ describes the properties of a communication device or protocol. ActiveXperts SMS

Messaging Server has four different types of ‘Channels’:

 GSM Modem Channels;

 SMPP Channels;

 POP3 Channels;

 SMTP Channels.

▼ GSM Modem Channel

SMS Messaging Server uses a ‘GSM Modem Channel’ to send/receive SMS messages using a

GSM Modem. The GSM Modem should be connected to the server where SMS Messaging Server

is running, through one of the following interfaces:

 Serial COM port;

 USB port;

 Bluetooth (or Infrared port).
