Since you could get kannel to work by manually starting the apps from /usr/bin then kannel installed/compiled properly. And if the manual start is also using same config, then at the least, the config is fine for the functionalities you specified. The problem the seemed to point to your init script.
Check your init script. Does kannel have permission to write to the PID files location? On one of my installations (if I remember well, using Ubuntu), I had to modify the init script to check if the pid folder exists, if not, create it, and set permissions for kannel to write to it by chown to kannel preferably to chmoding to 777. That solved the problem for me in that case. You might want to test that this is the case for you first by manually creating the pid folder, in my case it was /var/run/kannel. Then, chown kannel /var/run/kannel. Then, service kannel start. If this doesn't work, you may want to share your /var/log/kannel/bearerbox.log & smsbox.log content. It will reveal more, provided your init is starting the services with enough verbosity to reveal more info. Hope this helps?
