[Serusers] ser-0.9.6: modules/postgres bugreport & patch
by Alexandre Snarskii 13 Oct '08

13 Oct '08

Hi! I'm running ser-0.9.6, on FreeBSD 6.1-stable, database backend is postgresql version 8.1.3. Today I got errors in logfiles, saying: messages.2.bz2:May 29 14:35:03 <XXX> /usr/local/sbin/ser[51448]: ERROR:avpops:dbrow2avp: dbrow contains NULL fields The similar problem reported in: http://lists.iptel.org/pipermail/serusers/2005-May/019681.html with much more detailed description of error, database contents and config samples. Patch is trivial, and looks more like a fix to copy'n'paste error: in mysql/val.c function str2val states: if (!_s) { memset(_v, 0, sizeof(db_val_t)); VAL_TYPE(_v) = _t; VAL_NULL(_v) = 1; return 0; } VAL_NULL(_v) = 0; and the last line mentions that 'well, that's value is not NULL'. In postgresql/db_val.c, line 182, function str2valp, the same statement is the: if (!_s) { DLOG("str2valp", "got a null value"); VAL_TYPE(_v) = _t; VAL_NULL(_v) = 1; return 0; } without explicit notification that this is not-NULL value. More than, nowhere else in this function VAL_NULL(_v) not set to 0. So, if a value _v.val contained anyting but 0 at the function start, resulting value will be threated as NULL despite the fact, that _s is NOT NULL. Patch is obvious, just add VAL_NULL(_v)=0; after cited block (line 188) and everyting will be ok. At least for me it's ok for some hours :)

Re: Fw: [Users] TM : retransmission timers
by Rao Ramaratnamma 18 Mar '07

Hi Weiter, Yeah, I have been trying to limit myself to technical observations too, but the governance aspect is somewhat interesting too as a hint for future development, even though I guess even this is much more confusing than the technical ones. I have investigated, both projects have their firms with them that pursue their commercial interests which creates a risk of possibly departing from the public interest, like with redhat. From this angle they look quite similar. But if any worries me just a little bit more than openser. Appearance at commercial shows on the "open" side versus technical event on the "net" side if I take your BSD parallel, marketing "open" webpage accusing "net" version bad, hiding root commerical sponsors on the "open" webpage, this could be signs for a redhat-like doubleedged sword. Hopefully I am oversensing because I mean it is natural that everybody has SOME interest, but indisputably folks on both sides have done good work, but same indisputably more TRANSPARENCY would be helpful for both projects so that users can be less investigative. But I agree the technical comparison you suggest will be very useful if not most useful. This is what I am eventually upto. Anything folks have to tell in this topic is most welcome like the retransmission timers in subject or user loading. rr disconcerted by the fact that the more I know the more I am confused and determined to get over the learning curve quickly. also excuse the abuse I crossposted again but I think cross interrogation is a bit painful but the more effective :-) ----- Original Message ---- From: Weiter Leiter <bp4mls(a)googlemail.com> To: Kim Il <kim_il_s(a)yahoo.com> Cc: users(a)openser.org Sent: Thursday, November 9, 2006 1:42:29 PM Subject: Re: Fw: [Users] TM : retransmission timers Common user barely has time to meet his boss requirements, rather than playing around with different scenarios, platforms, environments. I only read one email where Daniel stated that OpenSER now performs a whole much better while loading users from database. SER guys put no figure out yet, neither bare numbers nor comparisons. I'm just really curious to see how both servers perform, that's all. Even though I must maintain my SER, I kinda like OpenSER's faster releases and developers' responsiveness (that I shamelessly exploit for the common code left there :-), which is pretty much nonexistent with iptel (at least this is the general belief here at OpenSER). But about this I'll probably have to fight on SER's mailing list. I still wish that one day I won't have to compare features; heck, NetSER and FreeSER are still available ;-). WL. PS. Maybe regretfully, I haven't seen any iptel booth at von this year, while OpenSER guys put up a nice show. My congrats.

[Users] bug in radiusclient ng for 64b
by Stuart Clark 27 Feb '07

27 Feb '07

Hello, I have a 64bit machine running openser 1.1.0, and wish to log radius accounting details to radius using the acc module and radiusclient-ng. I am facing issues talking to a freeradius server, as described at: https://developer.berlios.de/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=7442&group_id=1208 Basically, the server reports: Error: Received Accounting-Request packet from w.x.y.z with invalid signature! (Shared secret is incorrect.) I have updated to the cvs version of radiusclient-ng, but the problem still exists. It would appear that the md5 routine is not compatible with the md5 routine used by the freeradius software. Just wondering is anyone else has worked their way around this problem.

[Users] OpenSER administrator issue
by Pat wang 27 Feb '07

27 Feb '07

Hi, Just managed to install the new openser administrator and everything just works. Thanks to Mike for this nice application. However I can't add user with openserctl anymore. The following error appears: ERROR 1054 (42S22) at line 1: Unknown column 'phplib_id' in 'field list' ERROR: introducing the new user '5702' to the database failed On the other hand, adding new users from administrator GUI does not have this problem. This happened right after installation of aministrator so I think it is related to the administrator mysql table changes. Any suggestions please? Thanks, Patrick

[Serusers] SER server as a client
by jk 27 Dec '06

27 Dec '06

Hello List, I am working on an assignment to develop a load balancing asterisk cluster. I started with google and found out that SER+ASTERISK is the best way to do it. Here is what I am trying to do. I have a sip account / DID (18xx xxx xxxx ) from an abc company. Now the company is gateway for between my asterisk server and PSTN network. My Asterisk server registers with abc company's gateway to receive and make calls. How can I do load balancing in this case. I understand that my SER server should register with the gateway, the gateway should forward call to SER server and then the server should forward call to one of the asterisk servers. Is it possible have the SER server register with another SER or Asterisk server and act like a client to receive and make calls? Can some one please point me to some documentation or case study? Thank you, -JK

[Serusers] Re: How to change Caller ID in FROM field ?
by lawrence k.y. lin 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

Hi all, Appreciate if someone can give me a suggestion or even an answer. Since the call from SIP device to PSTN phone did not have Caller ID and our Telco carriers request for the Caller ID, we have to set a number before the calls are routed to PSTN gateway. I did it in Asterisk before with the function calls SetCallerID(CLID) or Set(CALLERID(number)=CLID) (depends on the Asterisk version) and these function calls worked. But because of the scalabliity issue, I changed to SER and would like to do the similar thing as in Asterisk. I read the SER document and awared SIP_HF_FROM has the data for the entired FROM field. Is there any other variables for Caller ID only ? I searched the mailing list for SER and did not find any related topic (only found one with title: caller-id with raius using sip-rpid, but it is irrelevant). Thanks in advance.

[Serusers] append_rpid_hf() replacement in CVS-HEAD
by Hendrik Scholz 18 Dec '06

18 Dec '06

Hi! append_rpid_hf() was removed from CVS in 2005 with the following note: "Rpid support dropped, it will be implemented using AVPs." Is there a standard way of implementing this? OpenSER utilizes avp_printf() for this which isn't part of SER: http://www.mail-archive.com/devel@openser.org/msg02248.html What is the Best Current Practice to add the Rpid header? If there is none I'd help implementing something new since I'm already tackling some Rpid to P-Asserted-Identity transformation things. It would also be handy to add the privacy tag according to another AVP (although I'm not using it).
