When I send an invalid mobile number to smsbox, it logs the following error message:
2016-06-02T06:00:54.361419-07:00 guru smsbox[5157]: 2016-06-02 06:00:54 [5157] [5] INFO: Starting to service <11121611611 Error Invalid Number. Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code. No service specified> from <+1121611611> to <1234> And smsbox then repeats this message, apparently forever (well, at least ~10 minutes). Question #1: I resolved this by stopping & restarting both bearerbox & smsbox. Is there a less dramatic way to fix the issue? Question #2: How do instruct smsbox to give up on an undeliverable message? I thought that "sms-resend-retry = 5" would accomplish this, but apparently not. Question #3: How would I delete this message from the queue? I tried the following, but I received the message "Denied" lynx -dump http://localhost:13000/remove-message?id=11121611611&password=xxxxx kannel v1.4.4 CentOS 7 Multitech modem cat /etc/kannel/kannel.conf # Core config group = core admin-port = 13000 smsbox-port = 13001 admin-password = secret status-password = not-so-secret syslog-level = info smsbox-max-pending = 5 sms-resend-freq = 60 sms-resend-retry = 5 log-level = 1 include = /etc/kannel/modems.conf # SMSC GSM group = smsc smsc = at modemtype = auto device = /dev/modem validityperiod = 24 max-error-count = 5 # SMSBOX SETUP group = smsbox bearerbox-host = localhost sendsms-port = 13013 global-sender = xxxyyyzzzz log-level = 1 # SEND-SMS USERS group = sendsms-user username = foo password = bar # SMS SERVICE Default # there should be default always group = sms-service keyword = default text = "No service specified" --sk
