It looks like your helper is trying to indicate channel-ID 176 but
sending something that is not a digit before the ID number.


Can you run the helper manually and send it one or a bunch of requests
to see if it is producing the correct output?

Is there any whitespace or prefix before the channel-ID it is putting on
the line?  The above log entry looks like the helper is producing
something like these:
 "0 178 OK"
 " 178 OK"
