Thanks Alex & Daniel for suggesting these ingenious potential solutions.

To add a little bit, look at log_custom, the log
message can be
forwarded over udp to another application, which can be developed for
specific purposes, like writing to database, probably easy to do using
golang or python.

Not directly from Kamailio, unless you want to
"log" manually using
sql_query().
Commonplace approaches for this:
1) Forward Kamailio syslog data to a syslog-ng server - i.e. in your
local /etc/rsyslog.conf or whatever:
local0.error @remote.server:514
syslog-ng supports PostgreSQL and other storage destinations:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/syslog-ng#PostgreSQL_Destination
And it can filter and parse entries based on regular expressions to
make what you store more selective.
However, beware of the uncertain performance characteristics of this
setup under heavy loads, and also the poor suitability of RDBMs to
short-lived data sets that constantly turn over. Lessons learned the
hard way.
2) The Elasticsearch way -- which originally required Elasticsearch +
Logstash, but now apparently can work through syslog-ng directly:
https://www.syslog-ng.com/community/b/blog/posts/logging-to-elasticsearch-m…
Of course, you can still go the traditional Logstash route.
I haven't personally used Elasticsearch, but it sounds like the better
way to go than a traditional RDBM if you're dealing with large volumes
of syslog data that are rotated out frequently.
On the other hand, if you're only looking to log occasional critical
errors, not "everything", then just about any approach will work fine.

Hi there,
I was wondering if there's a way to log various core error events in
some DB.
For example, below error occurred
Jan 29 11:43:56 kamailio[11076]: {1 11440 INVITE
28b653bd-8f62-4085-a5ef-f2a4ac0f393d } ERROR: <core>
[core/parser/sdp/sdp_helpr_funcs.c:499]: extract_mediaip(): no
`IP[4|6]' address in `c=' field

28b653bd-8f62-4085-a5ef-f2a4ac0f393d } ERROR: <core>
[core/parser/sdp/sdp.c:430]: parse_sdp_session(): can't extract

Thanks in advance. Regards,
