Messages pending after reboot

Hey guys, first and foremost this is an amazing tool! :slight_smile: Thanks for the hard work.
I have however some issues with my installation since the last reboot and not really sure how to troubleshoot it.

Prior to the reboot I ran a few sample messages back and forth for testing with complete success, now after I rebooted all messages sent stay pending (files to be found under /var/spool/sms/modem1/out.0.1.X)

Here is a sent message log:

My modem is showing as “Bus 001 Device 005: ID 12d1:1001 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E169/E620/E800 HSDPA Modem” with lsusb

Also, the incoming messages, albeit they get a received report on my mobile phone, don’t show up on the All Inbox at all.

P.S. - I masked the phone numbers for privacy

thanks in advance for any advice you can give me on how to best address this issue.

Are your smstools (or gammu, don´t know) running?
