Kamailio & Asterisk SIP Registration Forwarding - Asterisk replies 401 Unauthorized
by Ben Fitzgerald 17 Apr '26

17 Apr '26

Hi, I've been following this integration tutorial http://kb.asipto.com/asterisk:realtime:kamailio-4.0.x-asterisk-11.3.0-astdb and have a successful registration and I can even make calls through my asterisk box. However what is unusual to me is that every time a phone registers with Kamailio, that is forwarded to Asterisk (as expected), yet Asterisk replies with 401 Unauthorized. Oddly enough the phone registers and can still make calls. What worries me is that as we scale to 100's of cps, this seemingly erroneous message may slow down Asterisk because it's trying to handle authentication for users which have already been authenticated by Kamailio. If this behavior is expected, then that would be good to know as well. This is the sip debug from ASTERISK (I have replaced IP's with the names of the servers): <--- SIP read from TCP:kamailio:41205 ---> REGISTER sip:asteriskIP:5060;transport=tcp SIP/2.0 Via: SIP/2.0/TCP kamailio;branch=z9hG4bK998f.2846e405000000000000000000000000.0 To: <sip:40081@asteriskIP> From: <sip:40081@asteriskIP>;tag=32fda68bf54efeeb04e3edc67b53c63d-cfb0 CSeq: 10 REGISTER Call-ID: 0005ce130bcee5c4-26538@kamailio Max-Forwards: 70 Content-Length: 0 User-Agent: kamailio (4.3.0 (x86_64/linux)) Contact: <sip:40081@kamailio:5060> Expires: 3600 <-------------> --- (11 headers 0 lines) --- Sending to kamailio:5060 (no NAT) Sending to kamailio:5060 (no NAT) <--- Transmitting (no NAT) to kamailio:5060 ---> SIP/2.0 401 Unauthorized Via: SIP/2.0/TCP kamailio;branch=z9hG4bK998f.2846e405000000000000000000000000.0;received= kamailio From: <sip:40081@asteriskIP>;tag=32fda68bf54efeeb04e3edc67b53c63d-cfb0 To: <sip:40081@asteriskIP>;tag=as404bac9a Call-ID: 0005ce130bcee5c4-26538@ kamailio CSeq: 10 REGISTER Server: Asterisk PBX 11.6-cert2 Allow: INVITE, ACK, CANCEL, OPTIONS, BYE, REFER, SUBSCRIBE, NOTIFY, INFO, PUBLISH Supported: replaces, timer WWW-Authenticate: Digest algorithm=MD5, realm="asterisk", nonce="262b338e" Content-Length: 0 <------------> Scheduling destruction of SIP dialog '0005ce130bcee5c4-26538@ kamailio' in 32000 ms (Method: REGISTER) Scheduling destruction of SIP dialog '0005ce130bcee5c4-26538@ kamailio' in 32000 ms (Method: REGISTER) Really destroying SIP dialog '0005ce130bcee5c1-26536@ kamailio' Method: REGISTER ========================= sip.conf for kamailio trunk: [kamailio-inbound] type=friend dtmfmode=auto host=kamailioIP allow=all context=sipout insecure=port,invite canreinvite=no ======================== Asterisk version: 11.6-cert2 Kamailio version: 4.3 Benjamin Fitzgerald LETS Corporation (925) 235-1154 ben(a)letscorp.us *******Confidential Notice: This message is intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged, confidential and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.

Support for TLS server_name extension (aka SNI=server name indication)
by Barry Flanagan 04 Sep '25

04 Sep '25

Hi, Back in Kamailio 1.5, the release notes state: "support for TLS server_name extension (aka SNI=server name indication)" However, I cannot find any indication of this in the current TLS docs, and trying to set tls_server_name or server_name in tls.cfg fails with "unsupported option". Is this actually supported? Thanks. -Barry Flanagan

[4.2] how to send out BYE successfully to close a TCP/TLS connection which misses the connection ID?
by Jack Wang 02 Sep '25

02 Sep '25

For some reasons, My settings will cause kamailio to be restarted even if there were connections connected to it. And when one SIP client in a connection wanted to hangup the call with a WebRTC Client (SIP over websocket) after the proxy-restarting, local client was closed, however , the other side was not. >From the log below it seems that the connection missed. Jan 30 18:19:31 ./kamailio[27857]: WARNING: <core> [msg_translator.c:2777]: via_builder(): TCP/TLS connection (id: 0) for WebSocket could not be found Jan 30 18:19:31 ./kamailio[27857]: ERROR: tm [t_msgbuilder.c:1365]: assemble_via(): assemble_via: via building failed Jan 30 18:19:31 ./kamailio[27857]: ERROR: tm [t_msgbuilder.c:1545]: build_uac_req(): build_uac_req(): Error while assembling Via Jan 30 18:19:31 ./kamailio[27857]: ERROR: tm [uac.c:379]: t_uac_prepare(): t_uac: Error while building message So, Is it equivalent to connection ID missing? And is there any way to make Websocket found the connection? Btw, after proxy-restarting for seconds , I typed `sh kamctl stats` : websocket:ws_current_connections = 1 It showed that the WebRTC Client will re-connect automatically, So I think this connection could be found by proxy, Any suggestion? Thanks :)

apt-key deprecation
by tom＠tomlynn.com 11 Nov '24

11 Nov '24

When I look at the debian repositories maintained by the project, there are instructions to import the public key of the repository for apt using this command: wget -O http://deb.kamailio.org/kamailiodebkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add - which results in: Warning: apt-key is deprecated. Manage keyring files in trusted.gpg.d instead (see apt-key(8)). gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. Is there an alternate method that can be posted in the repository that will get better results? Thank you, TL

Error opening Kamailio's FIFO /run/kamailio/kamailio_rpc.fifo
by matilopi17＠gmail.com 01 Nov '24

01 Nov '24

Hello, This is kamailio version 5.8.2 and we`re having this issue every now and then. The error displayed is: ** ERROR: Error opening Kamailio's FIFO /run/kamailio/kamailio_rpc.fifo ** ERROR: Make sure you have loaded the jsonrpcs module and set FIFO transport parameters The problem is that the FIFO file /run/kamailio/kamailio_rpc.fifo doesn't exist, even though the "jsonrpc" module is in the Kamailio configuration, and the file is created when Kamailio service is restarted. But as mentioned, after few days the issue is repeated. I`ll appreciate any suggestion or advice of what I should check. Thank you!

Failed to parse the R-URI with topoh enabled
by Ale 29 Oct '24

29 Oct '24

Hi All, I think I have a problem with topoh, but I can't identify it. Kamailio 5.6.6, used as a stateless proxy, receives a 487 from a phone and propagates it correctly. Next comes the ack that should be forwarded back to the phone, but instead it doesn't forward it and produces the following error "pv_get_ruri(): failed to parse the R-URI" The error is generated by xlog("...$ru from $fu...\n"") as first line of request_route. If I disable topoh everything works perfectly.Topoh is only configured with mask_key only. Furthermore, not all phones generate this problem, at the moment there are some snoms. ACK sip:user@phone_ip:2048;line=kkqgarrj SIP/2.0 Via: SIP/2.0/UDP proxy_sip_ip;branch=z9hG4bK2ec.e7126a3134bef9d974f57dd43ebd4ea2.0 Route: <sip:kamailio_ip:5060;lr;received=sip:phone_ip:2048> Max-Forwards: 66 From: <sip:111111111@sip.example.com>;tag=pDc1BQ0B57Ujj To: <sip:user@sip.example.com>;tag=vslvowy4y2 Call-ID: 40a6c905-c0c8-4c20-b3f7-397b3fce58b6 CSeq: 90285584 ACK Content Length: 0 There is no difference between the ACK of the snom and other phones that work. The only difference I noticed is that the snom 487 contains Contact field in the header. Any suggestions? Thank you
