"kamctl cr show" when carrierroute table has another name
by Uri Shacked 06 Feb '12

06 Feb '12

Hi, after resolving the field type issue :-), i changed the params in kamctlrc to point to the right DB. now, i notice that when i use the command "kamctl cr show" iget an error that it does not find the table "carrierroute". in the cfg file it is all set and works fine, cr dump is working as expected as well. in the kamctl file i can find the param - CARRIERROUTE_TABLE. but where is it set from? anyone knows where do i make tha change in order for the kamctl to "know" the names of the tables i use? thanks, Uri

Kamailio 3.1.5 core dump from the snmpstats module
by Klaus Feichtinger 06 Feb '12

06 Feb '12

Hello list, I`ve found a negative phenomenon during startup of kamailio 3.1.x (orgininally found in version 3.1.5) that results in a core dump, triggered by the snmpstats module. During startup of the SIP proxy server machine the linux service "heartbeat" is responsible for starting required ressources like mysql, kamailio and snmpd. These services are monitored by the tool "monit". Monit is supervising the state of the named services and if kamailio is not up and running, monit is trying to restart the service. During startup the mysql database takes some time until it is ready to use and therefore kamailio can`t connect to the database. Monit is detecting this and restarting kamailio. This is done so often until kamailio is up and running. Finally all services are up and running and the machine is working fine. However, I do not like the core dump that was created during this "restart phase". As soon as the module "snmpstats" is not used, no core dump is created any more. Information about the core dump looks as follows: (1) output of kamailio log files: <prefix> kamailio: INFO: <core> [tcp_main.c:4726]: init_tcp: using epoll_lt as the io watch method (auto detected) <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3027]: ERROR: db_mysql [km_my_con.c:109]: driver error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3027]: ERROR: <core> [db.c:289]: could not add connection to the pool <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3027]: ERROR: lcr [lcr_mod.c:359]: unable to connect to the database <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3027]: ERROR: lcr [lcr_mod.c:571]: unable to open database connection <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3027]: ERROR: <core> [sr_module.c:875]: init_mod(): Error while initializing module lcr (/usr/lib/kamailio/modules/lcr.so) <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3027]: INFO: snmpstats [snmpstats.c:387]: The SNMPStats module got the kill signal <prefix> kamailio: ERROR: <core> [daemonize.c:307]: Main process exited before writing to pipe <prefix> kamailio: INFO: <core> [tcp_main.c:4726]: init_tcp: using epoll_lt as the io watch method (auto detected) <prefix> kamailio: WARNING: <core> [daemonize.c:352]: pid file contains old pid, replacing pid <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3322]: INFO: usrloc [hslot.c:53]: locks array size 512 <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3322]: INFO: auth [auth_mod.c:312]: auth: qop set, but nonce-count (nc_enabled) support disabled <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3322]: INFO: pua [pua.c:360]: the query returned no result <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3322]: INFO: pike [ip_tree.c:88]: probing 256 set size <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3322]: INFO: <core> [udp_server.c:178]: INFO: udp_init: SO_RCVBUF is initially 111616 <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3322]: INFO: <core> [udp_server.c:229]: INFO: udp_init: SO_RCVBUF is finally 262142 <prefix> /usr/sbin/kamailio[3329]: INFO: mi_datagram [mi_datagram.c:326]: a new child 0/3329 (2) output of GDB / core file: Core was generated by `/usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -u kamailio -g kama'.

But I have not found a better way yet. The other modules like LCR have no problem with the kill signal during initialisation. My main question is now: how could these core dumps being avoided? Did anybody have the same experience as me? Thanks in advance, Klaus

Kamailio, Freeradius and CDRTool
by Reda Aouad 05 Feb '12

05 Feb '12

Hi, I am trying to get Kamailio to work with CDRTool. In the step of installing freeradius and adding kamailio's dictionary dictionary.kamailio to freeradius, I get the following error when starting freeradius -X, which fails to start: Error: Errors reading dictionary: dict_init: No ATTRIBUTE "Sip-Method" defined for VALUE "Other" Replacing Kamailio's dictionary with OpenSips' one, freeradius starts correctly. I assume then that there's something missing in Kamailio's dictionary. I am using Kamailio v3.2.0 and it's dictionary file. Any help ? Thanks :) RA

Hi All, I've just installed 3.2.2. I'm using a config that was working fine with 3.1 and all seems ok. I get one error that I don't get on 3.1 at startup. kamailio: ERROR: <core> [ppcfg.c:79]: ### added subst expression: /DB/mysql This is repeated for all SUBST statements in the config. I get these errors also: [1293000.484026] INFO: task kamailio:19912 blocked for more than 120 seconds. [1293000.484081] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

I have been getting these errors since 1.x and what I normally do is echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs to get rid of it. It must be a module that I am loading. Is this possible to debug? I can again get rid of the messages but would love to know whats causing it. BR Shena

question about NAT being behind of a Load Balancer
by Albert Petit 03 Feb '12

03 Feb '12

Hi , Sorry for previous email. Hit send too soon . Good morning, On my system i've a structure similar to: SIP Clients SIP Platform [-------------------] [---------------------------------] S1 @IP2 S2 @IP3 SIP UACs SIP LB ... [NATted and @IP1 non Nattted] SN @IPN SIP LB is based on Kamailio dispatcher and is responsible of distributing the load between different Servers SIP UAS. S1, S2,... SN Servers have a Kamailio Server too which will forward received balanced traffic to appropiate service (Presence , registrar,...) Considering SIP LB and all SIP UAS have Public IP, how NAT from the UACs could be handled on this scenario? Initially I thought NAT should be handled on SIP LB however I would like the most simple possible load balancer with no need to read user locations . Responsible of location users should be S1,S2,..:SN Then, would it be possible to handle NAT of the SIP UACs *from the SIP UAS *with NAT Helper module? What i'm afraid is: If all traffic to S1,S2,..SN comes from SIP LB then nat_helper could think all clients are NATTed because top most via will be SIP LB. What I need, I think, is that NAT Helper decides if there is NAT looking the Via Header added originally by UAC , and not the top most via (which would be SIP LB). Is that possible? If possible how should i configure Nat helper for that? BR Albert

Re: [SR-Users] sr-users Digest, Vol 81, Issue 7

Hi I think I got the tcp_crlf_ping and the tcp_keepalive parameters mixed up. So for tcp_crlf_ping, Kamailio will only respond. While for tcp_keepalive parameters, if enabled on both server and client, both will be sending the keepalives, and the receiver will respond. In order to use tcp_crlf_ping, client's app level rather than TCP level would have to send the crlfcrlf (pings) and process the crlf (pongs) in order to detect if Kamailio is up. Is this right?

Kamailio ims / rtpproxy
by trojak＠st.fri.uniza.sk 02 Feb '12

02 Feb '12

Hi, I am trying to make kamailio PCSCF working with rtpproxy (for NAT traversal). I would like to ask, if there is any tutorial for this, or if you can give me any advice. I also have installed rtpproxy package; #!define WITH_NAT, and defined rtpproxy port in config file... But this is not working. I noticed, that in default config file of pcscf is nothing in routing logic with rtpproxy (or it is unnecessary ?), so I try to copy route[RELAY] route[NAT] route[RTPPROXY] modules from kamailio (no pcscf) config file... but also with no success. Can you help me please ? What I am doing wrong ? Do you have any configuration working with rtpproxy ? Best wishes Lubo

Re: [SR-Users] best way to start kamailio at boot
by Jason Penton 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

I am not familiar with Centos but I suspect there is another script being run from somewhere. What I would do is move the /etc/init.d/kamailio script somewhere safe (your home directory for eg). Then reboot and see if kamailio still starts - if it does you need to find out whihc script is being called and where it is. If you are not running X by default you are prob in runlevel 3. If you are running X, then it will be 5. check where you runlevel scripts are pointing. e.g. ls -al /etc/rc3.d/SXXkamailio (X = [0-9]) Cheers Jason On Wed, Feb 1, 2012 at 4:26 PM, Uri Shacked <uri.shacked(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > when i reboot the machine, it starts with 32Mb and i do not understand > why... > so, does it use a startup file that i am not familiar with? > what is the appropriate runlevel? how do i set it and where? > > thanks, > Uri > > > >Hi Sammy, > > > >When you use the init script, it is starting Kamailio with the correct > >arguments to get the environment you wish (-m 2048 probably).
