Issues with SMS

I finally got the correct cable for my Nokia 6210.  Only the DLR-3P worked for me.

I was still having trouble getting messages from my phone although it was connecting properly.  Looking in XFX, I was only getting heartbeats.  I put it into debug mode to test.

It would see the messages coming in but was throwing up an error. 

(Sorry didn't take a copy of the errors) but the messages included: Failed to collect msg 97, sms error 321.

I found this listing of errors: http://www.dreamfabric.com/sms/cms_error.html

My error was something to do with memory, so I tried deleting all the messages in the Inbox, this didn't work, all the messages were still there(tried this a couple of times), so I had to individually delete each message.  After restarting xap-sms, I got my first message in!

During all this, the system was crashing.  It seemed to be after restarting the system and then killing the xap-sms process in order to restart it in debug mode.  If I then ctrl-c, then started the xap-sms process again, it would kick me out of my ssh session and the web would become unresponsive.  The only way to sort it was to restart the system by hand.

I've tried this again and it seems to still be an issue even though my phone is now functional.

I guess the only thing that may cause the problem is restarting xap-sms too quickly?  I was restarting after 4 or 5 secs, maybe phone was still closing the session.

Just so you can see what a good message looks like on debug level 7 (command: xap-sms -d 7):
