Problem with logrotate in Ubuntu 22.04!
by christian.marinelli＠hotmail.it 20 Apr '24

20 Apr '24

Hi all, i set up a simple Kamailio SIP server with the latest stable versione. Than, by following the documntation, i tried to set up a file log instead of the standard syslog log, so i changed the syslog.conf by adding this lines: # don't log messages with LOG_LOCAL0 in /var/log/syslog anymore *.*;auth,authpriv.none,local0.none -/var/log/syslog # # log messages with LOG_LOCAL0 in /var/log/kamailio.log local0.* -/var/log/kamailio.log Then, i created a kamailio file in /etc/logrotate.d with this content to manage the log rotation: /var/log/kamailio.log { su root root daily rotate 7 compress delaycompress missingok notifempty create 0640 syslog adm postrotate /bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslogd.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true endscript } I found all these information in https://www.kamailio.org/wikidocs/tutorials/3.2.x/syslog/ Unfortunatly, in my Ubuntu 22.04 server there isn't a syslogd.pid file in that path so the logrotation doesn't work. Can anyone help me to understand the problem? Thank you so much in advance Christian

Newbie: accounting and billing
by Ghulam Mustafa 19 Apr '24

19 Apr '24

Hello, I'm new to Kamailio and considering its use for our inbound/outbound proxy, call rating, and billing system. I'd like to get your feedback on my current approach and understand the best practices for this scenario. Currently, I'm using SQL queries within my Kamailio configuration to handle authorization and rating. Here's a simplified example: # Call authorization route[DISPATCH] { if (is_method("INVITE") && isbflagset(FLB_SRC_CARRIER)) { if ($au == $null) { $var(acc_query) = $_s(SELECT ct.tag as tag, ct.customer_id as customer_id, cast(cb.nobal_amt as integer) as nobal_amount, cast(cb.cash as integer) as cash, ct.digits, cast(ct.retail_rate as varchar) as retail_rate, cast(ct.wholesale_rate as varchar) as wholesale_rate, ct.dispatcher_group, cast(ct.cps as integer) as cps from customer_ip ip INNER JOIN customer_balance cb ON (ip.customer_id = cb.customer_id) INNER JOIN customer_tariff ct ON (ip.customer_id = ct.customer_id) INNER JOIN customers cust ON (ip.customer_id = cust.customer_id) WHERE ip_address = '$si' AND '$rU' LIKE ct.digits || '%' order by ct.digits desc limit 1;); } else { $var(acc_query) = $_s(SELECT ct.tag as tag, ct.customer_id as customer_id, cast(cb.nobal_amt as integer) as nobal_amount,cast(cb.cash as integer) as cash, ct.digits, cast(ct.retail_rate as varchar) as retail_rate, cast(ct.wholesale_rate as varchar) as wholesale_rate, ct.dispatcher_group, cast(ct.cps as integer) as cps from customer_auth auth INNER JOIN customer_balance cb ON (auth.customer_id = cb.customer_id) INNER JOIN customer_tariff ct ON (auth.customer_id = ct.customer_id) INNER JOIN customers cust ON (auth.customer_id = cust.customer_id) WHERE auth.subcriber = '$au' AND '$rU' LIKE ct.digits || '%' order by ct.digits desc limit 1;); $dlg_var(auth) = "1"; } xalert("query is $var(acc_query)"); if (sql_xquery("dbh", "$var(acc_query)", "row") == 1) { $dlg_var(account) = $xavp(row[0]=>customer_id); $dlg_var(dispatcher_group) = $xavp(row[0]=>dispatcher_group); $dlg_var(retail_rate) = $xavp(row[0]=>retail_rate); $dlg_var(wholesale_rate) = $xavp(row[0]=>wholesale_rate); $dlg_var(cps) = $xavp(row[0]=>cps); $dlg_var(service_plan) = $xavp(row[0]=>tag); # $var(cash) = $xavp(row[0]=>cash); xalert("account: $xavp(row[0]=>customer_id) cash: $xavp(row[0]=>cash) retail_rate: $xavp(row[0]=>retail_rate) wholesale rate: $xavp(row[0]=>wholesale_rate) group: $xavp(row[0]=>dispatcher_group) cps: $xavp(row[0]=>cps) tag: $xavp(row[0]=>tag) \n"); if ($xavp(row[0]=>cash) <= $xavp(row[0]=>nobal_amount)) { sl_send_reply("403", "Insufficient balance"); exit; } append_hf("X-Account: $dlg_var(account),$dlg_var(retail_rate),$dlg_var(wholesale_rate)\r\n"); } else { sl_send_reply("500", "Server Error!"); exit; } #!ifdef WITH_CPSLIMIT # perform pipe match for INVITE if (is_method("INVITE")) { $var(invlimit) = $(dlg_var(cps){s.int}); if ($var(invlimit) > 0) { if (!pl_check("$si-$dlg_var(dispatcher_group)", "TAILDROP", "$var(invlimit)")) { pl_drop("5"); exit; } } } #!endif # round robin dispatching on gateways group '1' if(!ds_select_dst("$dlg_var(dispatcher_group)", "4")) { send_reply("404", "No destination"); exit; } t_on_failure("RTF_DISPATCH"); route(RELAY); exit; } } …… ……. …… # Billing and Rating using acc_cdrs and a customer_balance table event_route[dialog:end] { $var(call_duration) = $DLG_lifetime; # Fetch call duration $avp(originator) = $dlg_var(originator); $avp(accountcode) = $dlg_var(account); $avp(caller) = $dlg_var(caller); $avp(callee) = $dlg_var(callee); $avp(pdd) = $dlg_var(pdd); $avp(service_plan) = $dlg_var(service_plan); $avp(hangup_source) = 'CALLEE'; $avp(hangup_code) = '200'; $avp(hangup_reason) = 'Normal Clearing'; $avp(elapsed) = ( $TV(s) - $dlg_var(init_timestamp) ); if ($dlg_var(auth) != $null) { setbflag(FLB_SRC_CARRIER); } if (isbflagset(FLB_SRC_CARRIER) && $dlg_var(originator) == "CUSTOMER") { $avp(hangup_source) = 'CALLER'; } if (isbflagset(FLB_SRC_PBX) && $dlg_var(originator) == "SYSTEM") { $avp(hangup_source) = 'CALLER'; } # Calculate billed amount using postgres query $var(bill_query) = $_s(select cast(round($dlg_var(retail_rate)/60::numeric * $var(call_duration), 4) as varchar) as bill;); if (sql_xquery("dbh", "$var(bill_query)", "row") == 1) { $avp(billed) = $xavp(row[0]=>bill); } if (isbflagset(FLB_SRC_CARRIER)) { $var(query) = "UPDATE customer_balance set cash = cash - (" + $dlg_var(retail_rate) + " / 60 * " + $var(call_duration) + ") WHERE customer_id = " + $dlg_var(account) + ";"; sql_xquery("dbh", "$var(query)", "ra"); } # xalert("~~~~~ Call ended (duration: $var(call_duration)) total_billed: $avp(billed) ~ $avp(hangup_source) ~ $T(reply_code) ~ $T(reply_reason) ~ $T_reply_code ~ \n"); } My questions are: • Is this a sustainable approach for a Kamailio billing/rating setup? Are there performance or scalability concerns? • Would it be better to handle rating and billing directly on our FreeSWITCH B2BUA? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each approach? • Are there best practices or alternative solutions I should consider? Thank you in advance for sharing your experience and insights!

compile without downtime
by satyaprakash ch 17 Apr '24

17 Apr '24

HI I currently have two proxy servers running in my environment, and I want to upgrade Kamailio from version 5.4.7 to 5.6. Can I recompile the Kamailio service before restarting it without downtime ? Will there be any impact on my production environment if I recompile Kamailio to the newer version? If there is no impact, I expect approximately 2 minutes of downtime during the service restart. Here's the scenario: *No Downtime:* Clone the Kamailio repository with git clone https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio.git Navigate to the Kamailio directory with cd kamailio Update the modules.lst file with any necessary additions Compile with make Install with make install *Downtime:*Restart the Kamailio service. Please advise on this. Thanks.

Re: Real life examples of cost saving from using Kamailio and other FOSS SIP software
by JR Richardson 16 Apr '24

16 Apr '24

Hey Folks, What a great conversation, really enjoyed all the insight and feedback, other than what's already been said, which I agree with whole heartedly, I want to add some personal reflection. FOSS is exceptional for putting tools in your hands to build what your business can use to succeed. You will spend upfront $$ investment with man-hours learning, deploying, managing then cost trails off to realize the return on investment which is usually exponential compared to commercial drop-in voice switches. A key consideration is expected/targeted growth of the solution and operational expediency, how big with the subscriber base get, voice service is a high touch point for customer support. Once you (as in personally) deploy a FOSS solution in production, you are tied to that solution for its foreseeable existence, good luck finding competent and like-minded staff that see your vision and can support the solution as you do. Deployment guys will always have a deeper understanding/knowledge of the solution, architecture, configuration, pitfalls and work around than the operations support folks. If you don't have staff resources, having consultants you can rely on is crucial for success. I can't say enough about Kamailio for building call routing solutions, mature, stable, reliable, continued improvements, phenomenal developer and community base for support. Good luck whichever direction you go in!

Sorry, I meant to say "extract value" here, not "extract labour". But the larger point is that any successful formula heavily reliant on open-source is going to be a lot more dependent on culture, and on the strengths of individual people and their specific skills, than a formula reliant on a third-party vendor, all other things being equal. -- Alex -- Alex Balashov Principal Consultant Evariste Systems LLC Web: https://evaristesys.com Tel: +1-706-510-6800 End of sr-users Digest, Vol 227, Issue 36 *****************************************

Memory leaks - KEMI Lua
by Muhammad Danish Moosa 16 Apr '24

16 Apr '24

Hi, I am using kamailio with KEMI Lua. The script has some medium level complexity as it stores some information from the invite in redis cache during the call and uses that information during the call transfers (REFER and Invite triggered by REFER). Lua script itself creates/sets some variables, and sends/retrieves information during the flow for example KSR.ndb_redis.redis_cmd("srvN", "SET coreCI-" .. varCI .. " " .. KSR.pv.getw("$ci") .. " EX 3600", "r"); KSR.ndb_redis.redis_cmd("srvN", "GET refvar-" .. cid, "r"); reft=KSR.pv.getw("$redis(r=>value)"); I made a test call and disconnected, what I am observing is that even if the call is finished the used memory is slightly increased. before: < real_used: 844240 < real_used: 844088 < real_used: 844088 < real_used: 844088 < real_used: 844088 < real_used: 844088 < real_used: 844088 < real_used: 844088 after: > real_used: 846080 > real_used: 845864 > real_used: 846584 > real_used: 846304 > real_used: 846200 > real_used: 846120 > real_used: 845248 > real_used: 846168 My assumption is after finishing the call, memory used by variables and redis ops is released and should be back to original values but its not happening. In production this issue is causing some problems as I have to restart the kamailio process after every 3-4 weeks so that it starts breathing with more available memory. Initially I thought its Kamailio version issue as in my last posts in this forum people advised me to upgrade to the latest kamailio version (original one was 5.4.0) but the same issue is happening on 5.7.0. Can someone explain how to debug/troubleshoot this situation . I have a parallel lab environment, I do not see anything interesting in syslogs. -- Muhammad Danish Moosa " The core of mans' spirit comes from new experiences. "___ Christopher McCandless

Hello, there is some planned work on the data center infrastructure hosting kamailio.org server that is going to affect briefly the web server (web site, wiki) and the mailing lists. The downtime is expected to be 10-15 minutes around 1:00am Western Europe time (CEST / GMT+2), but if it takes longer or repeats, be patient for a while.
