Frequently Asked Questions about SMS.pm ( Sat Apr 22 18:12:08 CEST 2000 ).
Q. What is SMS.pm and how can I use it? A. SMS.pm is a perl module used for sending SMS messages through the many
webbased free sms providers. You can not ``run'' this module. It was written to be used in scripts or other perl modules. You can use it by running the scripts included in the package (where you probably found this FAQ).
Q. When I run something it keeps telling me `Can't locate SMS.pm in @INC ...'.
What is wrong with my system?
A. Nothing. It seems the ``something'' you tried to run uses SMS.pm, but u
did not install the module system-wide or in a directory that's inside @INC. You can specify alternative directories with '-I/path/to/module'. See man perlfunc(1p) for more details.
Q. I could send messages through provider foobar always, but since yesterday
I keep getting the error 'Message not send' or something like it.
What am i doing wrong?
A. The website of the provider foobar probably changed its way how it handles
sms requests. Check the website for changes, look at the SMS.pm website ( currently 'http://pja.op.het.net/sms/' for new versions and if there are no new versions try to update the existing provider definition for foobar. Oh, I forgot to tell you. E-mail the update provider definition to pj@het.net
