Honestly, the first thing I did was check the date on this post when I opened it. Are you SERIOUSLY installing Fedora 12 with Kannel...in 2017??? Kannel appears to have been last updated 3 years ago...Fedora 12 went end-of-life in 2010...it is SEVEN YEARS out of date and unsupported.

Fedora 12 is ANCIENT, unsupported, and loaded with security holes. The best solution for your goal of having an SMS gateway is to load a CURRENT version of Linux, and a different product, of which there are several. The latest Fedora is fine, but if you're going to put this server into production, then load CentOS or Ubuntu LTS. From there, one of the products is OzekiSMS:

...along with several others you can find with a Google search.

Ok...the error is very clear. It's telling you that some other service is listening on that port. So, change the port to something else in the configuration, or change the other service to a different port.

Hello,
All kannel configuration are done. All services(bearerbox, smsbox, wapbox) are running.
I sent the sms message on another server by using lynx

Code:

lynx -dump "http://10.1.0.8:13013/cgi-bin/sendsms?username=tester&password=foobar&dr-mask=18&charset=ISO8859-1&coding=2&to=23675747174&text=test sms"

But I get the error message : Not routable. Do not try again.
This error message come from kannel.
May I have someone for help?

Regards,

See the "Question Guidelines" and LQ Rules. Please open a new thread for a new question.

There can be many causes for this in Kannel, and we can't see your configuration, so we don't know what it could be. Putting the error into Google yields lots:
https://github.com/rapidsms/rapidsms/issues/425
http://www.kannel.org/pipermail/user...er/001079.html
https://www.mail-archive.com/users@k.../msg08946.html

Again, there is much that can cause this.
