Push a Message via a Database Trigger? - mysql

Question

I am trying to use Database trigger and procedure to send sms I have create the table and I can insert data by:
use sms;
INSERT INTO sms_out (id, sender,receiver,msg)
VALUES ('','MyName','25578200000',"test");
I have created trigger as;
use sms;
CREATE TRIGGER push_message_trigger AFTER INSERT ON sms_out
FOR EACH ROW
CALL push_message(NEW.sender, NEW.receiver, NEW.msg);
and I have created procedure as;
use sms;
DELIMITER $$
CREATE PROCEDURE push_message
(p1 TEXT,
p2 DOUBLE,
p3 TEXT)
BEGIN
DECLARE cmd CHAR(255);
DECLARE result CHAR(255);
SET cmd = CONCAT('curl "http://www.sms.co.tz/api.php?do=sms&username=Myusername&password=MyPassword&senderid=MyName&dest=25571500000&msg=test"');
SET result = sys_eval(cmd);
END$$;
The above does not work but if I replace
SET cmd = CONCAT('curl "http://www.sms.co.tz/api.php?do=sms&username=Myusername&password=MyPassword&senderid=MyName&dest=25571500000&msg=test"');
With
SET cmd = CONCAT('touch /var/lib/mysql/Advo');
It works!!
Whats wrong with curl??

Answer 1

I guess the problem it's not the curl literal is how are you using mysql CONCAT funcion.
To concat strings you should do something like (if you don't use commas you aren't concatening strings):
CONCAT(str1, str2, ....);
Seems that the problem are the quotes, try to escape the double quotes like this \"
