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 closed by SMSC 2010-08-30 16:07:10 [2280] [7] DEBUG: EMI2[vodafone-8878]: clear_sent called 2010-08-30 16:07:10 [2280] [7] INFO: EMI2[vodafone-8878]: connecting to Primary SMSC 2010-08-30 16:07:31 [2280] [7] ERROR: connect failed 2010-08-30 16:07:31 [2280] [7] ERROR: System error 110: Connection timed out 2010-08-30 16:07:31 [2280] [7] ERROR: error connecting to server `217.10.194.192' at port `6001' 2010-08-30 16:07:31 [2280] [7] ERROR: EMI2[vodafone-8878]: opening TCP connection to 217.10.194.192 failed 2010-08-30 16:07:31 [2280] [7] ERROR: EMI2[vodafone-8878]: Couldn't connect to SMS center (retrying in 10 seconds). - then every ten seconds I get these errors: 2010-08-30 16:07:41 [2280] [7] INFO: EMI2[vodafone-8878]: connecting to Primary SMSC 2010-08-30 16:08:02 [2280] [7] ERROR: connect failed 2010-08-30 16:08:02 [2280] [7] ERROR: System error 110: Connection timed out 2010-08-30 16:08:02 [2280] [7] ERROR: error connecting to server `217.10.194.192' at port `6001' 2010-08-30 16:08:02 [2280] [7] ERROR: EMI2[vodafone-8878]: opening TCP connection to 217.10.194.192 failed 2010-08-30 16:08:02 [2280] [7] ERROR: EMI2[vodafone-8878]: Couldn't connect to SMS center (retrying in 10 seconds). 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!
