Hi Ravi I am also trying to do the same thing but I am a bit confused in the process...
Basically, I need to track the messages from the very beginning like this (a) My application sends a request to Kannel to send a SMS (b) Together with the request, my application generate a SMS ID (so I know this application is the one requesting it) (c) Kannel accepts the request, remembers this SMS ID and proceed to try to send the SMS. (d) Kannel reports back DLR together with this SMS ID to the application. The issue here is that the ID reported back is internally generated by Kannel, not the original one that the application created so it is meaningless to the application. How did you get around it? Also, I heard that using SQLBOX is more efficient and flexible but I can't find a proper documentation for it. Anyone knows where it might be? Thank you very much!! -----Original Message----- From: Ravi Bhalotia [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 27, 2007 11:30 PM To: Ben Suffolk Cc: users@kannel.org Subject: Re: getting message_id from submit_sm_resp Thanks a lot Ben, Seik and Fajar. All your pointers and advice are very helpful and I am able to get it to work now. I am getting the message_id from kannel now and storing in our database for lookup purpose with our SMSC later. Thanks again for the help, I recompiled kannel and installed it again. This time when I pass "%i" to the dlr-url, the kannel is being reported back to my application. The logs idea from Ben is also excellent and I am writing a process to do that to add another layer of checks for the messages. - Ravi Ben Suffolk wrote: > Ravi, > > I don't recall what a rejected messages contains, but on a delivery > the DLR messages contents contain the id you want : > > [msg:122:id:0499484085 sub:001 dlvrd:001 submit date:0707270748 done > date:0707270748 stat:DELIVRD err:000 text:.] > > Maybe you could parse it out of the messages. > > Regards > > Ben > > On 26 Jul 2007, at 23:00, Ravi Bhalotia wrote: > >> Thanks Seik.
