Hi Jayesh,
Thank you so much for the reply. I have downloaded the version
openser-1.0.1 from cvs. I thought that is a stable release and no changes are
going to be made to it. Do i have to again revert to the tar.gx version? Also
please look at what happened when i previously installed the .tar.gz
version of openser before doing the cvs
1. downloaded openser-1.0.1-linux_i386.tar.gz
version as root.
2. It is now under / (the root directory). after
that i did unzip and untar on that.
3. the file and modules are loaded into the
subdirectories of the /usr directory.I could not anywhere find a standalone
directory called openser-1.0.1 with the directory sip-server in it.
also there is no makefile here.... (All these i see when i
download it thru CVS in the /usr/local/src directory.)
4. I tried to see through the list for
the module mysql.so but i could not find it....and so for uri_db module
also. these modules are present when i install openser thru cvs
5. i did not do any make on it. I thought it is
precompiled version and will automatically get installed when i do the untar and
unzip. please correct me if the tar version also has to go thru
make
6. i ran openser through /usr/local/sbin/openser
start. and it ran successfully... it showd the tcp and udp ports on which
it is running..i could register my sip UA without authentication.
7. then i wanted to set it up for mysql support. i
edited the config file and uncommented the necessary modules and tried to create
the openser databse in mysql. here it failed stating ha1 calculation failed..
also it states there is no mysql.so module which is true.
Please let me know if I have made any mistakes in
the installation process.... I am new to openser.. now if i want to revert to
.tar.gz version, will all the openser modules and config files from the cvs be
replaced by the tar.gz version? or will there be duplicate entries left?
Thanks again
Regards,
Padmaja

through monit daemon?
Hi
padmaja,
Running openser from cvs would not solve your problem. Openser
from cvs is the development version which will be released after final
testing is done.
To be safe, its better if you use .tar.gz file to
install. For enabling mysql, go to the openser directory and you'll find a
makefile. In the makefile there is a line exclude_modules?= somewhere around
line no.49. From there just remove mysql and recompile it again.
You can
start openser using openserctl start from the command line.
To check for
some errors you can set debug=9 in the openser.cfg file.
Normally the
logs are stored into /var/log/messages. You can check for errors in this
file.
Hi!
there
is something I need to mention here with respect to openser not
working.....
Initially I had openser installed from .tar.gz and i
could run it from
/usr/local/sbin/openser. It worked fine that way
without any authentication.
I could see local registration of my sip UAs
with the openser being
successful. then i set up mysql. It too started
successfulyy thru webmin.
next I tried to create the openser database in
mysql from
/usr/sbin/openser_mysql.sh create. It prompted me for the
root password of
mysql, the domain name and then failed stating that the
Ha1 calculation
failed. also when i tried to modify the openser.cfg file
to support mysql
database i found that there is no mysql.so module in
the
/usr/local/lib/openser/modules/ path.
Because of the above
problems, I tried installing openser from CVS and here
all the modules
and configuration files are present in the respective
locations as
mentioned in the web link for installing openser. I could even
create
the openser database structures in mysql. i tried uncommenting the
needed modules for database suppport. now when i try to run openser thru
monit, there is absolutely no response and openser does not look like
running............
I am a newbie at openser......please help me
which way i should run
openser.....
thanks and
regards,
Padmaja
