It would of course help if you described your errors. :)

Since you are using an outdated serendipity version, maybe you're using an outdated version of the popfetcher plugin?

So:

1. Which version of the popfetcher are you using
2. How did you configure the popfetcher
3. What are the errors you are talking of
4. How does a MMS look like that you are sending? Please send one to my mail address serendipity at supergarv dot de so that I can look at it.

Regards,
Garvin

Sorry

the error is, that sended mms were published without attachement. as you can see on the weblog (2 latest topics)

Thanks for the notice, im trying to update my s9y! :)

1.

files are as shown on: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/p ... opfetcher/

Okay, then the Attachment parsing seems to just not be set properly.

I'll wait for your MMS and tell you how to fix it, please hang on.

Ok, thanks

Thanks a lot for your feedback, I could patch the popfetcher plugin. Its file should be updated at the CVS HTTP location you mentioned within the next 24 hours.

The error was a bit hard to spot.

O2 Germany sucks a lot at sending MMS message, because they put a lot of advertisement and HTML markup code in their MMS that makes it unususable.

The first O2 implementations ignored advertisements by skipping images that have no "." in their filename - the O2 ad was such a file. But it seems your cellular phone also puts a wicked cid:... filename for files inside the usual MMS, which is why the popftecher plugin skipped those files.

The new implementation now checks for a a 74 x 31px image, which is the current O2 germany logo to skip those images. Additionally, a new config option to strip advertisements has been introduced. If you disable the option, you will see the full beauty of O2 Advertisement codes.

Hope you'll have fun,
Garvin.
