Hi All,

I'm using app_python with a KEMI Python routing script. I have been getting occasional Python exception error logs :

kamailio[2242]:  8(2253) ERROR: app_python [python_support.c:150]: python_handle_exception(): python_exec2: Unhandled exception in the Python code:

kamailio[2242]: TypeError: an integer is required

The scripts seems to function without an issue but these error logs appear fairly frequently, always with an empty Python stack trace.

I am running Kamailio 5.1 on a Debian 9 system and using Python 2.7 :

>>:/usr/local/etc/kamailio# python --version

Python 2.7.13

>>:/usr/local/etc/kamailio# kamailio -v

I have also tried using a Kamailio load built from the master branch (commit f8b8cecb) which gives enhanced exception logging identifying the function an exception occurs within and parameters. I see this occurring in different parts of the routing script e.g. 

from script

    def ksr_onsend_route(self,msg):

        KSR.xlog.xdbg("ONSEND_ROUTE fs=[$fs] $mb\n");

        return 1;

an exception is reported within ksr_onsend_route() even when the log level is info.

Changing log to xlog.xinfo, the log is seen to be sent to syslog but again the exception is reported. These exceptions are always "TypeError: an integer is required" but don't seem related to the Python script.

Here is an example of the log with a patch applied to to Kamailio 5.1 to show the function the exception is reported within.

kamailio[14092]:  6(14103) ERROR: app_python [python_support.c:156]: python_handle_exception(): apy_exec: ksr_reply_route((null)): Unhandled exception in the Python code:

kamailio[14092]: TypeError: an integer is required

.

kamailio[14092]: 22(14119) INFO: <script>: ONSEND_ROUTE fs=[udp:10.0.31.126:5080] ACK sip:10008@media.test.io:5061;transport=TLS SIP/2.0

kamailio[14092]: TypeError: an integer is required

Has anyone got an idea what can be causing these exceptions and how to avoid them? Currently I have simply patched the load to drop the level of this log to debug when such an exception occurs with an empty traceback as they seem spurious.

Cheers

Mike
