Wow, this is very useful.. Thanks for sharing this and hoping I could implement it too.

The init script doesn’t support the “status” option. Kannel does have a web administration, if you didn’t modify the kannel.conf from the one the RPM installed, you should be able to access it as: http://localhost:13000/status.html?password=bar

Check the userguide for further instructions.

Hi Friends !!!
it worked too for me !

but i have some issues !! when i start kannel with

# service kannel start

it is gives me something like this . . .

[root@ishan ~]# service kannel status
Usage: /etc/init.d/kannel {start|stop|reload|restart|force-reload}
[root@ishan ~]# service kannel start
Starting SMS gateway: bearerbox smsbox .
[root@ishan ~]# service kannel stop
Stopping SMS gateway: smsbox bearerbox .
[root@ishan ~]#

so what should i do ..as in this i even cant able to figure out that whether service is started or not …

and if i do use “/etc/init.d/kannel ” for starting and stoping kannel then also it wont provide me “status” option so that i can see that whether service is started or not . . . .

Thanks in advance … waiting for ur reply . . .

Glad it worked, and thanks for testing it. Please let me know if you encounter any problems running the daemons.

Regards,

i manually copied the header on the spec.in file and run the rpm make again and causes this error message:

Building the RPM
rpmbuild -ta kannel-cvs.tar.gz
error: Legacy syntax is unsupported: copyright
error: line 5: Unknown tag: Copyright: Open source, FreeBSD-style license; see COPYING

hi alex!

just downloaded again the rpm file and the spec.in doesn’t have that kind of new settings you point out on your comment.

it still shows the old one.
