Mine wasn't working but I assumed it my own fault as I changed the password recently. O2 site seems to have a problem holding on to passwords I find.

Mines been ok since I fixed the password.

www.cabbagetexter.com seems to be down

Bandwidth Limit Exceeded
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to the site owner reaching his/her bandwidth limit. Please try again later.

(I wonder if the limit is monthly and we are stuck for the rest of November)

Anyone know of any apps similar to cabbage on the windows phone market that works with meteor? IM having trouble with SendU and Webtexter!

GIMP

Mine is also not working with Tesco mobile (mobile app)

califano

Hi I'm not able to send messages on my Cabbage (full version) on my samsung galaxy note 2. Getting the message 'invalid response. Expected a numerical value'. Can't verify my account (Tesco's Mobile) through the app either even though I have tested my account via the tesco mobile web site and sent web sms's so my passwords and logins are fine.

Any help would be appreciated its one of my most used apps

anncoates

Working on desktop again here.

Seems there is an issue with non-english chars sending from the desktop v1.98.1?

Try sending just something with fada like "é" or non-english like "å".
Cabbage appears to send it but it doesn't arrive.

It could be the Three SMS server but I tested from the 3 website and that worked.

Tesco.....desktop at work and at home, down for a few days but working fine today!

Cant send anything through Cabbage for Android or Cabbage for Windows 7.

On Android it weirdly lets me I have no web texts left even though I only sent a few this month. On desktop it gives me an error, even though I selected to send via intermediate server as it says on the website.

I have registered with three. Got my pin and can do it off the website but not cabbage Any help?

Cabbagetexter.com was down for the weekend.
It works for me now (android app, TescoMobile, via server).

desktop version worked for tesco via intermediate server for a while, but it hasnt been working for about 2 weeks now. Says it has sent, but nothing arrives.
same if i send from cabbagetexter page. it works through tesco mobile site directly.

Savage_Henry

the weird thin is that on pc soft it says sent, if i check on tesco mobile sent webtext page - it shows up. but the text actually never arrives. as i said - it sends fine through tesco mobile site.

biko

Desktop version 1.98.1 hasn't been working for me for a few days.
If I use old sending method I get -8 precheck invalid response.
If I don't use old method I get -2 could not connect to network site.
If I untick use intermediate server I get -7 network site failed.
On Three network

http://www.cabbagetexter.com/ gives me:

Are all vodafone desktop users still in the dark? I haven't been able to use the desktop version for about 4 months now or since whenevr VF added the captcha

Was thinking we should set up a "fund it" type campaign to raise money for Sam to get it sorted

Already paid my 99c for the android version and was coming to ask if there was windows phone version because I didn't see it and would have paid a second time for it

cormie

Does Vodafone on the android cabbage work so? Any way to use it on the pc?

anncoates

Desktop version down for me the last 2-3 days and the site shows a bandwidth exceeded error. Very annoying and seems a regular occurrence of late?

Is it time to charge (more) for the application to cover costs? I bought the android mobile application but would gladly pay more to avoid this as I use the desktop version a lot.

On Three.

mikebl71

Yep, the server is down again.
I am getting a feeling that this is going nowhere.
I mean, Sam hasn't been heard from for some half a year by now.
Obviously, he is busy with something else and I am not sure if we can realistically expect him to come back any time soon.
Unfortunately, in meanwhile, the service is going from bad to worse. The server was down for a week in Nov and down again now.

So I guess, if we want to continue using the service, we need to figure out which options we have that do not require Sam's input.
I have the latest sending server scripts (the latest shared anyway). If someone has a web server with PHP and decent bandwidth allowance,
and would be willing to open it to the public, then we could have CabbageTexter2 running in a few days.
Now, this would not solve the problem with O2 and VF, not in the short term anyway.
But it would help with all other networks.

I don't have the source code for clients, so I cannot change them, but most of them have an option to configure an alternative server,
so we can continue using them in this way.

So, anybody willing to provide the server?

RangeR

I have a server with 20GB monthly traffic allowance and willing to use it.


Edit :

I mean, Sam hasn't been heard from for some half a year by now.

To be fair, it's only been two months.

Can someone send me the script?

mikebl71

Sent you a PM

kkelly77

Tried to find the answer to this on the cabbage site but its still down.

I paid for Cabbage Deluxe to have it on my phone. Do I need to pay for it again to have it on my Android tablet?

RangeR

ALL YOUR TEXT ARE BELONG TO US

I'll leave it up over the Christmas to try get an idea of bandwidth usage and go from there. Absolutely no promises.

mikebl71

To translate RangeR's post,
now you can use "http://sms.irishranger.com/send.php" as an alternative cabbage server.
You can configure this in the client's settings.
For example, for Cabbage on android, go to Menu - Settings,
select "Sending Method" - "Via Server", and
"Server side script URL" - "http://sms.irishranger.com/send.php"
For WebSMS Cabbage Connector, it's in Menu - Preferences - "Preferences - cabbage":
"Default Cabbage Gateway" untick,
"Custom Cabbage Gateway" - "http://sms.irishranger.com/send.php"
Similar for other clients.

O2 and Vodafone still do NOT work.
Tesco is still a bit funny - as some people reported before sometimes messages appear in "sent" but do not arrive - I'll try to fix it when I have some spare time (still need to put my xmas decorations on).

RangeR

Yeah, sorry. Sometimes I wrongly assume that everyone@internet.com is a techy.

It seems to work for me on my Cabbage Ultimate.
Happy texting.

Note : I don't have time to fix bugs. I'll simpy put the newest version live every now and then.
