RE: few queries

[Rene Kluwen]

I can give some advice that others on this list are likely to give you. Try upgrading to Kannel CVS Head. It is considered more stable than 1.4.0.   I know it sounds a bit lame. But probably it will help. Maybe it doesn't. But it sure is worth a try.   Rene Kluwen Chimit   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Brent Goldspring Sent: zondag 19 februari 2006 23:18 To: users@kannel.org Subject: RE: few queries If it helps, we’ve hammered Kannel to send 500 SMS’s (+ DLRs) via the sendsms interface from a Perl script and it did it without blinking. This was on a FC4 box with Kannel CVS via an SMPP 3.4 SMSC J.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rene Kluwen Sent: Monday, 20 February 2006 4:55 AM To: Sriram; users@kannel.org Subject: RE: few queries   Hello Sriram,   1. Maybe the other Kannel experts can shed a light on this. But for sure Kannel SHOULD be able to send 350 msgs in a row without breaking. 2. As a lame workaround: Why don't you put a "sleep" command in your visual basic program after every http request. This until the issue has been resolved.   Best regards,   Rene Kluwen Chimit -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Sriram Sent: zaterdag 18 februari 2006 13:19 To: users@kannel.org Subject: few queries Hello All   my setup : stable kannel 1.4.0 on SMPP 3.4 on FC 1.   working fine and am able to send sms via HTTP interface. I wrote a program in visual basic that fires the http command to various mobile numbers picking the numbers from the database. These http commands (send-sms URL i.e) are sent to the kannel box. Till there were around 200 numbers in the database ..the kannel was perfectly sending sms'es to all of them by getting the http comand from the VB front end , no probs at all .now as the list is growing (its 350 mobile numbers) ..the smsbox breaks in between...giving following error " segmentation fault , trying to destroy locked mutex". the bearerbox also breaks. I then have to go thru logs and empty the database till the point the smsbox broke. This is now getting a habit with it.    my queries : 1. Is the web server thats included with kannel miniature in level that can handle 200 requests or so in few seconds ? Can i use apache in any way to increase or shd i live with this ?   2.  Or is there any kind wherein i can to limit the number of http hits to the kannel for few seconds ?   FYI this is the URL i use , when i run this program from VB it reads teh database and fills in the field and fires this to the kannel machine:   URL = ""http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXXXX/cgi-bin/sendsms?username=XXX&password=XXX&to=">http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXXXX/cgi-bin/sendsms?username=XXX&password=XXX&to=" & Trim(Str(rs("mobile"))) & "&text=Hi"     Thanks in advance   Sriram
