Hi all,
We've figured out why we're not getting the command_status to our DLR, so I
thought I would post this in case anyone else had a similar problem.
We're not receiving the command_status to our DLR because we're sending a
concatenated message. Relevant code is from bb_smscconn.c:
void bb_smscconn_send_failed(SMSCConn *conn, Msg *sms, int reason, Octstr
*reply)
{
if (sms->sms.split_parts != NULL) {
handle_split(conn, sms, reason);
octstr_destroy(reply);
return;
}
...
Presumably this is because each SMS part can have its own command_status,
and Kannel isn't set up to pass multiple command_status' to a DLR.
It would be nice to be able to access all command_status' for a
concatenated message (or at least the first), but we can also work around
this.

Subject: Passing command_status to DLR
Hello all,
Firstly, I want to to thank the devs for the awesome work they've put into
kannel--it has worked extremely well so far!
However, I've been scouring the kannel lists and user docs for details
about how to pass command_status to a dlr-url in Kannel 1.5.0, but alas I
have been unable to figure out how to do it (or even definitively figure
out if it is possible with kannel out of the box). I have dlr-url and
dlr-mask working fine, but am unable to ever receive command_status to my
dlr script.
Our need for command status is similar to what I've seen others post about
on the list: one of our carrier partners uses the command_status to return
different kinds of transactional error codes that our application needs
access to (including billing status).
Threads like this:
http://www.kannel.org/pipermail/users/2011-June/015893.html
state that the TLV meta data feature of 1.5.0 can be used to read the
command_status, but I am unable to find any examples of this in the mailing
list or in Appendix H of the User Guide--can someone give a kannel.conf and
corresponding dlr-url example that is successfully passing the
command_status?
Threads like these:
http://www.kannel.org/pipermail/users/2009-December/009427.html
http://www.kannel.org/pipermail/devel/2009-September/002926.html
suggest that this was patched into the "meta-data" functionality of Kannel
prior to 1.5.0 (and suggest that I shouldn't even need a TLV section to get
the dlr_status parameter?), however I have been unable to get anything to
show up in the %D parameter passed to my dlr-url.
I'm also not seeing the command_status passed via the %A or binfo
parameters (we're printing every % parameter passed to our DLR script), as
per these threads:
http://www.kannel.org/pipermail/users/2011-June/015926.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg14125.html
It's possible I have overlooked instructions for how to do this on the
devel list--can someone show me a working kannel.conf and dlr-url example
that return command_status for submitted SMSs?
Other than this feature, everything about our Kannel setup is working
great. Please let me know if you need any addition info from me.
Thanks!
