Text sending fails despite of Success message

Open sarojkmb opened this issue 7 years ago • 8 comments

First of all thank you for this nice repo.

When I run the code, this is the output:' ubuntu@ip-172-31-15-54:~/textbelt$ node server/app.js { [Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/ubuntu/textbelt/server/torlist'] errno: -2, code: 'ENOENT', syscall: 'open', path: '/home/ubuntu/textbelt/server/torlist' } Listening on 9090

I guess this is OK.

Then when I run the curl command, I get success message but I dont receive text.

curl -X POST http://52.91.90.200:9090/text -d number=xxxxxxxxxx -d "message=I sent this message for free with textbelt.com" { "success": true }

But I guess this is the issue but I dont know how to resolve it: mutt failed

Did you install mutt? On Ubuntu run: apt install mutt

I have the same issue on Arch linux, with Mutt installed and working correctly.

Which carriers are you guys attempting to send to? Sometimes it can be an issue sending to a particular carrier. Also, what sender address you send with? That may or may not affect the outcome as well.

@zachschultz If you send an email to [email protected], do you receive a text?

@typpo just tested, yes that does work

Ok. I think you'd have to look at the mail logs on your server to determine what exactly went wrong. Usually this is /var/log/maillog, or you may be able to simply open mutt and visually inspect mail failures (look for one from tmomail.net).
