** MangoSMS requires Microsoft .NET
framework version 3.5, a library of Microsoft components that may already be
installed on the computer. If so, it would be listed in Windows control panel
under "(Add & Remove) Programs & Features".
MangoSMS CD installation automatically checks for the framework. If required, it will install it from the CD.
MangoSMS Web installation also checks for the framework. If required, it will download and install it from the Internet.
The Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 is included on the MangoSMS installation CD.
It is also available for download from the official Microsoft site, or Windows update.

Known Issues
| Description |
|---|
| Mango downloads update and does not apply it. | |
Resolved from 1.3 onwards - Close MangoSMS, right click the tray icon near the
system clock, choose exit. It should update, otherwise download new version,
double click and install. Contacts and data will not be affected. |
| Mango wont update. | |
Resolved from 1.3 onwards - Live update has been reworked to download and
install in one go. Mangos prior to ver 1.2 might not apply the update. This can
be resolved by overinstalling with the latest version. Close MangoSMS, right click the tray icon near the
system clock, choose exit. Download new version,
double click and install. Contacts and data will not be affected. |
| MangoSMS not working behind IPCOP / SQUID type firewall | |
This has been resolved from ver 1.320 onwards. And is caused by SQUID adhering
to strict HTTP 1.1 proxy standards, that are incorrectly implemented by the
Microsoft framework. |
| Scheduled messages show numbers | |
Messages in the outbox and sent box, that were sent using the scheduler, display with phone numbers rather than names.
This works perfectly, just is user unfriendly - to be changed to names. |
| Multipart SMS can arrive backwards | | Yes, very rarely it can
happen that a multipart message arrives 2nd part before the 1st part. This is
not just a Mango thing, it can happen even from handsets. MangoSMS sends
multipart messages as a whole lot of single messages which works accross all
networks and for all countries. Most networks offer concatenated or multi-part
messages which are more reliable, but often restricted to max 2 part or max 5
part, which is also a problem, and also cost more than singles. |
| Networked Mangos | | There are some network issues that we
already know about, please send us an email or call that we can assist. How are
your computers networked ? (A) Each Mango lives independently on each computer
(B) MangoSMS database file lives on server (C) MangoSMS database file lives on
someone elses workstation computer. How are the Mangos linked? (1) Mangos share
a database file, but have seperate accounts (2) Mangos share accounts but live
independently on seperate computers with seperate databases (3) Mangos share
database files and share accounts. How many computers and Mango users? Brief
description of the problem. |
Past Issues
| Ver 1.315 * Feb 2010 |
|---|
| Update core files | NEW | Update file is unusually
big because it packages new versions of several core files |
| Options | NEW | Options page has been reworked to
cater for future settings |
| Purchase History | NEW | View previous SMS bundle purchases from
home page / "buy credits" button |
| Folder renaming | | Renaming folders with
numbers at the end would cause even more numbers to append to the name |
| Templates would crash on save | | Fixed in ver 1.230 and
later was still problematic. Template section has now been completely redone,
problem resolved. Templates can be created on the go or seperately in template
folder. |
| Networked updates | | Updater now looks in shared
area then program area for updates. So networked users sharing a common database
share downloaded updates, save bandwidth and all use the same version. |
| Number pad not working | | Typing a cell-number
from the number pad would not work, but did work using top row of keyboard |
| Reply to email | | Reply to email did not work, but replied to Mango instead. This was an SMTP
problem and messages were redirected back to Mango until it was resolved. |
| Poor performance | | Mangos with many groups and
sub-groups may have experienced really slow behaviour at the point of pressing
send. |
