Please give me your uptime :)
i've been tested kannel on my redhat 9 linux with SMSC ver 3.4 connection for
about 2 months
and found that this stuff is not really stable, i need to restart and restart
again and finally
i move to my custome tailor made SMSC Client application.
I've heard my friend that, kannel is not stable on linux but in freebsd he
said stable
anybody could confirm it?
I have run Kannel on FreeBSD, and the only thing that kills it is the
internal DLR storage -- many messages never "complete" the cycle kannel
believes is 100%:
8 Delivered to SMSC
4 Delivered to Carrier
1 or 2 Delivered or Failed to Handset
Kannel, if it never sees a 1 or 2 or 16 for a DLR, never deletes the
record from memory, and thus after a few days or weeks, runs out of
memory.
The solution is to move DLR storage to mysql, and if that was the case, I
am confident that kannel would not crash. In a previous life I ran kannel
on redhat linux with at least 90 days of uptime, probably more, just can't
remember, or the box needed upgrades and a reboot before kannel died.
I know kannel is still used and is stable for a company running at least
100,000 SMS messages per day.
