RE: Kannel HTTP locking up

2011-02-22 Thread Richard Crawshaw
OK, many thanks.  That means that we need a Linux box to run Kannel on.  
However, I'm not really familiar with Linux, is there a recommended 
distribution that Kannel runs best on, or any that are best avoided?

Regards
Richard

 Hi
 
 I'm having a problem that looks like Kannel's SMS box HTTP listener is 
 locking up.
 
 I've been running some load tests on Kannel, sending out 30K messages over a
 short space of time.
 
 I am running Kannel version 1.5.0 under Windows using Cygwin.  I have no 
 problem
 if it is running on my Windows 7 laptop, 32 bit 2.68G RAM, 2.53GHz.  However,
 when it is running on one of our servers it locks up after about 24K 
 messages. 
 The server is Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise x64 Edition SP2, 2GHz with 8G 
 RAM.
 
 The only difference between the two is the Kannel configuration file which
 points the log files to different places in the file system.  Both instances 
 of
 Kannel were compiled from the same source code on the target machines using 
 the
 latest version of Cygwin.
 
 The server isn't under a heavy load.  It is also running IIS.
 
 After Kannel locks up there are no further entries added to its log files and
 from what I've found the only solution is to stop and restart it.  There 
 doesn't
 appear to be anything additional logged from the server that isn't logged from
 my laptop.
 
 Has anyone else seen anything like this before?  Any clues to what may be the
 cause or possible solutions would be greatly appreciated.
 
 I can post logs and config file if needed.

Cygin's pthreads, which Kannel uses heavily is NOT(!) stable. That's the simple
reason. This is BTW also the reason why Cygwin never packaged the mysql server.
So, there is NO way to use Kannel on Cygwin for real production use.

We use CentOS since 3.x (latest is 5.x) with very good results, but any
recent distro should work fine.

A lot of Windows admins like the Ubuntu server, http://www.ubuntu.com/server
Personally, CentOS is the best, when you have no option for Slackware, of 
course .. :)

Re: active throttling problem : throughput in kannel

Hi,

Please download and use latest svn. 1.4.3 doesn't have reliable throughput 
implementation. Latest svn has.

Hi,
I am trying my new system, and I am trying to use the active
throttling option in smsc group. But I see that it has no effect on my
system. Can someone let me know whats going wrong.
throughput was set to 10 but it gives around 200 msg /sec.
logica simm accepts any number of messages.

My setup:
logica smsc simulator:
kannel(with 2 smsbox):
attaching config and output(web status) file
