Hi,
Don't use devel for such questions.
To check if it is a resource socket problem, type:
netstat -a | grep 217.10.194.192 | wc -l
To get your open sockets when you have the problem. In linux you can
increase that number from ulimits.conf. In Solaris with ndd.
But this is not the cause of your problem. The question is why are you
disconnecting so often and keep building up connections?
You shouldn't be getting "connecting to Primary SMSC" during normal
operation.
BR,
Nikos

Subject: UCP reconnection problem
Hello
I'm using Kannel 1.4.3 for its SMSC gateway.
I'm connecting to an SMSC with the EMI/UCP protocol. The configuration is
the following:
group = smsc
smsc = emi
smsc-id = "myID"
preferred-smsc-id = "smscID"
host = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
port = 6001
our-port = 2878
receive-port = 1878
connect-allow-ip = 127.0.0.1
throughput = 5
keepalive = 50
(I tried without the keepalive, it's the same)
I have the following issue:
- connection works ok for a few days. When the connection is idle, I get
these messages in the log:
2010-08-30 15:57:09 [2280] [7] DEBUG: EMI2[vodafone-8878]: clear_sent called
2010-08-30 15:57:09 [2280] [7] INFO: EMI2[vodafone-8878]: connecting to
Primary SMSC
- after a while (couple of days) I get these errors:
2010-08-30 16:07:10 [2280] [7] INFO: EMI2[vodafone-8878]: Main connection

- then every ten seconds I get these errors:

2010-08-30 16:08:02 [2280] [7] ERROR: EMI2[vodafone-8878]: Couldn't connect

The connection does not work afterwards. Even if I restart the application,
the connection fails. The solution is to reboot the machine or to let the
application closed for a while (half an hour, an hour, maybe more).
I made a trace with Wireshark, it seems that the problem with the
reconnection is that kannel sends SYN tcp packet, the server responds with
SYN,ACK and kannel does not continue with ACK tcp packet.
But because the problem is being solved by a reboot, I'm thinking the
problem is somewhere in resource (socket) management (releasing the socket,
somehow).
Could you please help me?
Thank you!
Bogdan
