Mariella, You can send SMS to a specified port. But this is not defined inside kannel. You have to set a special UDH. Inside the UDH a Port can be specified. But I currently don't find the specification for it in my archives. Please google a little bit, try searching for UDH, Port and Smart Messaging. And when you find something, please post it to the list. Regards Falko Am 12.02.2009 um 01:03 schrieb Nikos Balkanas: Hi Mariella, What you describe is not possible. It is not even a kannel issue. PPG is sent as a binary SMS. It follows the same route as regular SMS. From bearerbox it is delivered to an SMSc and from there to the mobile. Therefore the SMSc is responsible for delivering the content to the mobile. This happens according to the SMS spec and is not configurable.

Re: Narendra
its an old old question, so its nice idea to read the mailing list, there is a lot of helpful info and do not mail the dev list, they have NOTHING to do with your configuration problems. as a hint, the mysql/anydb based dlr storage DONT handle the DLR status of a particular SENT message. Its used to store the queue of the messages NOT SENT TO THE SMSC. So in the usual case the table is empty, because the messages are DELETED from the queue AFTER they have been SENT to the SMSC. in case you want to know the status of a SENT message, set the dlr-mask to the needed value and the dlr-url pointing to a handler of the DLR info kannel receives from the SMSC. agian, in short : READ the mailing list, and do yourself a favor, take some time and read the manual from start to the end. almost everyone here has faced this issue at a time. narendra reddy wrote: Hi, I am successfully compiled with ./configure -with-mysql and after i added in the my config file mysql config file.but no messages are inserted in the table. can anybody suggest me where i am wrong. group = mysql-connection id = mydlr host = localhost username = foo password = bar database = dlr max-connections = 1 group = dlr-db id = mydlr table = dlr field-smsc = smsc field-timestamp = ts field-destination = destination field-source = source field-service = service field-url = url field-mask = mask field-status = status field-boxc-id = boxc but i am not able to see any messages in the table.where i have to add dlr-mask and dlr-url in the config file.i added in the send-sms -users .still i am not getting .
Re: Unknown clenup action defined 1d.
Hi, This is interesting. The unknown cle[a]nup action is defined in queue cleanup, which pretty much tries to determine action when waitack is not received (resend, reconnect, etc.). You seem to have a problem with your SMSc. As a result your SMSc is not sending any ACKs and therefore kannel stops sending SMS after the few first that go through. Depending on the action defined in wait-ack-expire. Default is to wait forever for the ack. 0x001D is defined in SMPP 5.0 Spec as additional_status_info_text which contains information about your SMSc status: The additional_status_info_text parameter gives an ASCII textual description of the meaning of a response PDU. It is to be used by an implementation to allow easy diagnosis of problems. Field Size octets Type Description Parameter Tag 2 Integer 0x001D Length 2 Integer Length of Value part in octets Value 1 - 256 C-Octet String Free format text to allow implementations to supply the most useful information for problem diagnosis. Maximum length is 256 octets. I would try to configure a tlv for this address to get a description of the problem, which should get rid of the unknown error as well. Then I would contact my SMSc to see how the problem can be corrected.

alt-charset on HTTP SMSCs
Hello, Does anyone have experience with converting between different character encoding schemes for HTTP SMSCs? Here's the scenario I'm facing: I receive messages via SMPP interface in encoded as UCS-2. I need to send these messages out formatted as UTF-8 to an HTTP SMSC. For some reason defining the alt-charset as UTF-8 (or anything else, for that matter) doesn't seem to have an effect on what is sent out in the HTTP call. Does the alt-charset directive work with HTTP SMSCs? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Nii.

Wap push si to windows mobile
Hi guys! We are currently doing a si wap push by sending an XML to http://ourhost:13021/wappush . This works well with most phones. Apart from Windows Mobile and the iPhone. In the case of Windows Mobile we've tracked the issue down to the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\100d being set to the value: SECROLE_PPG_AUTH | SECROLE_PPG_TRUSTED. More info can be found at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms890494.aspx Our current understanding is that if we become a Trusted Provisioning server (which can be done by setting the Push-Flag parameter) we could get the wap push through even with the security policy in place. Could somebody confirm this? If this is correct, how do we do this in Kannel? Also found this post on the subject: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.smartphone.developer/browse_frm/thread/cf95da3b415fd5d9/8e088cd8b18723b5 As for the iPhone we haven't got a clue as to why it's not working. Thanks for any help! Best Regards, Calle Kabo Berazy Mobile Entertainment AB

Re: Receiving sms
Try init string with only cnmi commad, kannel tests if the modem support pdu format if so, set it that way.

HELP! Patent claim! Can we use an alternate protocol?
Hello, Us users of SMS Shortcodes are getting hit in the US for violating a patent by TCS Inc. The patent claims to cover: A gateway, comprising: a first communication path to accept a short message from a mobile device; a translation module to insert said short message into an Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) message; a second communication path to push said HTTP message to at least one Universal Resource Locator (URL); and a return communication path to receive a return message relating to said HTTP message. The patent goes on to mention a whole bunch of stuff, ie, using HTTP POST to send the http message, etc. I just got out of a meeting with my lawyer. He says, the only way to get around this is to NOT use HTTP. Over the weekend, I tried to use the sms-service using EXEC instead of GET-URL, which worked fine... and then the server crashed... i'm guessing too many spawned processes? My question to you all is: how can we NOT use HTTP but have the same end result? ideally, it would use a command-line exec, but push it into a waiting server, instead of spawning a new thread. Does anybody have any ideas on how to do this? Thank you very much, David
Re: Invalid PDU mode parameter error
Nikos: I just downloaded and compiled per the instructions...I don't remember having any difficulties. It's version 1.4.1, though. I have scoured the web looking for ways to diagnose Error 304, but all I know is it's an Invalid PDU Parameter. I seem to cross the threshold when my reply message exceeds 125 characters. The limit for single SMS messages is 160, and I'm well below that. I'd like to be able to figure out what the PDU Parameters are and how to distinguish the Invalid one. The only setting I send to the modem is in my modem group: group = modems id = sierra_881U name = Sierra Wireless AirCard 881U detect-string = Sierra Wireless Inc. init-string = AT+CNMI=1,2,0,1,0 For my test, I am sending a string of asterisks from my web page in response to an MO text message. As long as my message is shorter than 126, everything works great. However, I need to send longer messages. Bill Rigdon Nikos Balkanas wrote: Hi, I guess the right direction would be to call the place you bought it, or sierra wireless and ask them what error 304 means.

Are you sure smsbox is running? smsbox-list is empty means that bbox thinks there is no smsbox. Maybe your smsbox-id smsbox is causing problems. Kill all kannel processes. From a shell type: bearerbox -v 0 confifile In another shell repeat: smsbox -v 0 conffile If both get up, please run your test. Post all your logs (bearerbox + smslog).

Re: HELP! Patent claim! Can we use an alternate protocol?
Hi David, Falko gave the solution - use sqlbox for internal communication. Anyway, I'd love to know more of this like patent ID etc. In short, I have my doubts that they will claim violation. In short you do use http as internal communication INSIDE your boxes. HTTP is NOT used to receive MO traffic from mobile devices. The SMPP/OtherProtocols are used to communicate with mobile operators SMSC. the SMPP protocol DOES not send short text messages at all ..:) These people claims sound not serious to me at all. So relax a bit :) hint: the exec module has its issues with escaping non usual characters... I could be wrong, but they have to prove something non even existing ... cheers David wrote: Hello, Us users of SMS Shortcodes are getting hit in the US for violating a patent by TCS Inc.

Re: HELP! Patent claim! Can we use an alternate protocol?
Hi, What happens, if it is a really long script, is that you tie up Kannel for too long. Since it is in essence single-threaded, this will make it apparently unresponsive. But this is so, only until your script exits. I think it would be an excellent idea to send in the background. Please try it.

Re: HELP! Patent claim! Can we use an alternate protocol?
it ups to the handler you call with exec, the system resources you posses ...
in case you dont experience high loads exec is acceptable as short term solution
otherwise, use sqlbox, or, what about XML POST ?:)
i do parallel processing of MO traffic with invoking php script from kernel
inotify.h
in short when xml file is being moved to a directory, i spawn php script like
this one
/usr/bin/nohup ${php} ${loopScript} ${key} PAYMENT ${filename}
so far i have no issues, but for this particular service the max load is like
40 MO messages in same time, which is nothing.
i measure the load level before the each new process start ...
in case you have high load peaks,
1. make sure you know what will happen when the execution of the php scrip
fails.
2. make sure you control the level of the box load ... do not let kannel crash
the box :)
with processes the box cant handle.
last thing - do not let these people change your way of work ...
well its your call anyway :)
cheers

Re: HELP! Patent claim! Can we use an alternate protocol?
Just an ounce of care. People can inject malicious code in the arguments,
i.e. Sender = 1234;rm -rf . that unless carefully quoted can lead to
disaster.
