Re: Kannel installation problems

[Arun Jain]

Hello everybody,

 

Even with some suggestions from community, I am still

having problems in installing the kannel gateway.

 

Am I using the wrong binary? and

 

The binary is

 

 kannel-1.3.2-3.0.rh7.fr.i386.rpm

 

and my system is Redhat 4.5.3 (coreutils)

 

I do not want to install through the source.  I want to install

from stable binary libraries only.

 

Importing the key gave me following errors

 

/home/w1036/kannel>!188

rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY-freshrpms

error: RPM-GPG-KEY-freshrpms: import read failed.

/home/w1036/kannel>!202

sudo rpm --import /usr/share/doc/fedora-release-*/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora

sudo: No match.

/home/w1036/kannel>

 

My steps are as follows.

 

1.  I checked if I have the libxml2 library.  I have that.  Checked.

 

2. I downloaded the binary kannel-1.3.2-3.0.rh7.fr.i386.rpm

for my Linux machine 4.5.3 (Is this version right for my machine).

 

3.  I installed it with the command

 

rpm -ivh kannel-1.3.2-3.0.rh7.fr.i386.rpm

 

it gave me a warning

 

warning: kannel-1.3.2-3.0.rh7.fr.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID e42d547b

Preparing... ########################################### [100%]

package kannel-1.3.2-3.0.rh7.fr is already installed

Since I have already installed it earlier the last line says that.

However when I go to my /etc/init.d directory I do not find

any kannel daemon or any file which is remotely connected

with kannel.

I fail to understand what did I do wrong.

Please can someone help me guid through the process.  I

understand the process should not be too tough when you

are installing through the packages.

Hello Group.

 

I am working on WAP gateway installation.  While installing kannel, I encountered following problems.

 

I tried running the following command.

 

I am working on Linux RedHat 4.5.3. (coreutils)

 

I ran this command as root.

 

1.

/home/arun>sudo rpm --import /usr/share/doc/fedora-release-*/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora

And it came up with the following errors.

sudo: No match.

2.  There after I downloaded kannel-1.3.2-3.0rh7.fr.i386.rpm package and installed it with following

command.

It gave the following warning.

/home/arun/kannel>sudo rpm -ivh kannel-1.3.2-3.0.rh7.fr.i386.rpm

warning: kannel-1.3.2-3.0.rh7.fr.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID e42d547b

Preparing... ########################################### [100%]

1:kannel ########################################### [100%]

The final result is that I do not see any kannel daemon in init.d directory nor do I see any kannel

directory, conf file or anythign connected with kannel.

Could someone please guide me in through this process and point me out as to what did I do wrong.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

3. Please also tell me what changes I need to make in the conf file after I am able to install kannel.

Thanks.

arun
