Dears, I am using Kannel with gateway v1.4.4. I have trouble reading the incoming messages. I get no translation found in the smsbox logs , and gibberish data in the bearerbox logs.
For example:
For sent sms from mobile device : "Hi from wet and windy ireland"
I receive this SMS data in the PDU
SMPP[Smsc50496]: Got PDU:

I searched a lot , and the proposed solution is to change the coding value to
be 2 , in order to receive legible SMS(es), and this is reflected through
changing the alt-charset configuration. But It had no effect.
Here is my Kannel.conf file
--------------------------------
group = core
admin-port = 13001
smsbox-port = 13002
admin-password = bar
log-file = "/home/pnps/pnps/logs/kannellogs/SmscGateway.log"
log-level = 0
box-deny-ip = "*.*.*.*"
box-allow-ip = "127.0.0.1;172.*.*.*;192.*.*.*;10.*.*.*"
admin-allow-ip = "127.0.0.1;172.*.*.*;192.*.*.*;10.*.*.*"
admin-deny-ip = "*.*.*.*"
access-log = "/home/pnps/pnps/logs/kannellogs/access.log"
# SMSBOX SETUP
group = smsbox
bearerbox-host = localhost
sendsms-port = 13013
log-file="/home/pnps/pnps/logs/kannellogs/smsbox.log"
log-level = 0
access-log="/home/pnps/pnps/logs/kannellogs/sms_access.log"
reply-couldnotfetch = "Service is down, please try again later"
reply-couldnotrepresent = "Service is down, please try again later"
reply-requestfailed = "Service is down, please try again later"
reply-emptymessage = ""
mo-recode = true
# SEND-SMS USERS
group = sendsms-user

user-allow-ip = "*.*.*.*"

max-messages = 10
# SMPP PARAMETERS for SMSC account
group = smsc
smsc = smpp
smsc-id = Smsc12345
smsc-username = smscUser
smsc-password = smscPass

interface-version = 34
source-addr-autodetect = false
source-addr-ton = 6
source-addr-npi = 9
dest-addr-ton = 1
dest-addr-npi = 1
reconnect-delay = false
reconnect-delay = 10
transceiver-mode = true
throughput = 10
address-range = "^12345$"
#alt-charset = "ASCII"
max-pending-submits = 3
group = sms-service
accepted-smsc = "Smsc12345"
keyword = default
get-url =
"http://127.0.0.1:9091/smsReceivingService?msisdn=%p&smsText=%a<http://127.0.0.1:9091/smsReceivingService?msisdn=%25p&smsText=%25a>"
catch-all=true
max-messages = 0
#alt-charset = "iso-8859-1"
--------------------------------
I tried using alt-charset with different values, ASCII , UTF-8, UCS-2, and GSM
but no change occurred.
Please advise.
