Not sure why you want to go through all this trouble. But the function sql_to_bearerbox does not do still what you want.
Here goes: /* convert validity and deferred to unix timestamp */ if (msg->sms.validity != SMS_PARAM_UNDEFINED) msg->sms.validity = time(NULL) + msg->sms.validity * 60; if (msg->sms.deferred != SMS_PARAM_UNDEFINED) msg->sms.deferred = time(NULL) + msg->sms.deferred * 60; send_msg(boxc->bearerbox_connection, boxc, msg); /* message is sent with validity in absolute seconds */ gw_sql_save_msg(msg, octstr_imm("MT")); /* message is saved in sent_sms in absolute seconds */ From: Alexander Malysh [mailto:malys...@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Alexander Malysh Sent: maandag 18 februari 2013 10:02 To: Rene Kluwen Cc: devel@kannel.org Subject: Re: Validity perdiod Hi, just found a typo in my patch and changed it to: msg_escaped = msg_duplicate(msg); /* convert validity & deferred to minutes */ if (msg_escaped->sms.validity != SMS_PARAM_UNDEFINED) msg_escaped->sms.validity = (msg_escaped->sms.validity - time(NULL))/60; if (msg_escaped->sms.deferred != SMS_PARAM_UNDEFINED) msg_escaped->sms.deferred = (msg_escaped->sms.deferred - time(NULL))/60; gw_sql_save_msg(msg_escaped, octstr_imm("MT")); This should fix this issue.

Relay rows from smsbox to bearerbox and store them in sent_sms on the fly. These messages have been processed by smsbox already and should not be reprocessed. I am not sure what exactly you did because I don't have time to look at the code now. But something is going very wrong here. Even without using sqlbox we are getting invalid validity_period fields in smsc_smpp. On a side note, I see now that opensmppbox never sends a validity field to its connected entity, now I look at it. But that's a different story. == Rene From: Alexander Malysh [mailto:malys...@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Alexander Malysh Sent: maandag 18 februari 2013 9:29 To: Rene Kluwen Cc: devel@kannel.org Subject: Re: Validity perdiod Hi Rene, I converted validity & deferred to be unix timestamp internally, they were in minutes before. Due to the fact that I didn't know how sqlbox works, I assumed that validity & deferred in the sqlbox tables also stored in minutes therefore this conversion: if validity set then (now - unix timestamp) / 60 -> minutes the counter part is when selecting values from DB and sending to bearerbox: /* convert validity and deferred to unix timestamp */ if (msg->sms.validity != SMS_PARAM_UNDEFINED) msg->sms.validity = time(NULL) + msg->sms.validity * 60; if (msg->sms.deferred != SMS_PARAM_UNDEFINED) msg->sms.deferred = time(NULL) + msg->sms.deferred * 60; Alex Am 16.02.2013 um 15:36 schrieb Rene Kluwen < <mailto:rene.klu...@chimit.nl> rene.klu...@chimit.nl>: Also: in sqlbox.c (function smsbox_to_bearerbox()): /* convert validity & deferred to minutes */ if (msg->sms.validity != SMS_PARAM_UNDEFINED) msg->sms.validity = (msg->sms.validity - time(NULL))/60; if (msg->sms.deferred != SMS_PARAM_UNDEFINED) msg->sms.deferred = (msg->sms.deferred - time(NULL))/60; Isn't this field encoded twice now? Once in smsbox and another time in sqlbox? Alexander, you made this change. Please shed some light.

The validity field of the sendsms interface was not set. How do I interpret this as "YYMMDDhhmmsstnnp"? One of my clients needed to downgrade because of this issue. == Rene
