Hi Alejandro/James/Dear all The information you both supplied was very informative and useful and thanks for both.
after configuring with the changes the configuration went of smoothly and i started to run the bearerbox with the configuration below group = core admin-port = 13000 smsbox-port = 13001 admin-password = bar box-deny-ip = "*.*.*.*" box-allow-ip = "127.0.0.1" access-log = "/tmp/access.log" store-file = "/tmp/kannel.store" #dlr-storage = internal dlr-storage = mysql # SMSC CONNECTIONS group = smsc smsc = fake smsc-id = FAKE port = 10000 connect-allow-ip = 127.0.0.1 throughput = 50 #SMSC SMPP group = smsc smsc = smpp host = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port = xxxx receive-port = xxxx #transceiver-mode = true smsc-username = xxxxxxx smsc-password = xxxxxxx system-type = xxxxxxx address-range = xxxx # DATABASE CONNECTION FOR DELIVERY RECEIPTS group = mysql-connection id = mydlr host = localhost mysql-username = xxxx mysql-password = xxxxxxx database = dlr group = dlr-mysql id = mydlr table = dlr field-smsc = smsc field-timestamp = ts field-source = source field-destination = destination field-service = service field-url = url field-mask = mask field-status = status field-boxc-id = boxc the database, table, and the fields are given in accordance to the example given with the distribution in doc/examples/dlr-mysql.conf file. but when i started the bearer box the error coming is gw]$ ./bearerbox testkannel.conf 2004-11-11 11:49:02 [2524] [0] INFO: Debug_lvl = -1, log_file = <none>, log_lvl = 0 2004-11-11 11:49:02 [2524] [0] ERROR: Group 'dlr-mysql' may not contain field 'field-url'. 2004-11-11 11:49:03 [2524] [0] ERROR: Error found on line 63 of file `testkannel.conf'. 2004-11-11 11:49:03 [2524] [0] PANIC: Couldn't read configuration from `testkannel.conf'. 2004-11-11 11:49:03 [2524] [0] PANIC: ./bearerbox(gw_panic+0x175) [0x80c8505] 2004-11-11 11:49:03 [2524] [0] PANIC: ./bearerbox(main+0x171) [0x8051be0] 2004-11-11 11:49:03 [2524] [0] PANIC: /lib/tls/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf8) [0xb72f1748] 2004-11-11 11:49:03 [2524] [0] PANIC: ./bearerbox(read+0x51) [0x8050d81] [EMAIL PROTECTED] gw]$ hope to have the solution for this also and Thanks in advance. ***************************************************************************** This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
