+**Important Note**: starting with version 4.3.0, Kamailio uses the directory **/var/run/kamailio/** for creating FIFO and UnixSocket control files. You have to complete the section related to installation of init.d script for creating /var/run/kamailio even if you plan to start Kamailio manually from command line. The alternative is to set different paths via parameters of **mi_fifo** and **ctl** modules.
