Hi Laura,

I have recently been testing presence with Kamailio as well.

- The change status of the presentity is immediately visible by watcher with the only exception, when the user goes offline, the presentity keeps online in the watcher buddy list, any idea? Can you help me?

I have had the same issue with clients I was testing with. In my case it turned out to be problems with the client.

You should take a LAN trace from the client side and check that the client logging out is properly updating presence status on log-out. If that is OK, then take a trace on the client still logged in, it could be that the client is receiving the status update but not displaying it.

The xcap table is empty. Do I need to configure also the xcap table? Or it’s automically done by kamailio presence server?

The xcap table will be empty for new subscribers. When the client requests a document (of supported type) from Kamailio that is not on the server it will get a "404 Not Found" response. The client should then create a new document (with sensible defaults for the client) on the server using an HTTP PUT.

If the client requests a document that is not of supported type Kamailio will return a "500 Server Error" response and the client should continue (if it can) without support for that document.

During my testing I came across a client that didn't support HTTP authentication properly, so when Kamailio responded with a 401 the client gave up instead of authenticating. Disabling HTTP authentication (take out the "#!define WITH_XHTTPAUTH" line in kamailio.cfg).

Regards,

Peter
