Hi
I've an issue with serial call forking and I hope somebody can help me...
What I'm trying to reach:
We are using Kamailio in a dynamic network with multiple nodes. The dialplan is implemented using the KEMI interface. The call routing is completely dynamic. At the moment, we are having call groups, which may contain 1 or more recipients. If the number of this call group is called, Kamailio is doing a parallel forking to all group participants. Now I'm trying to extend the feature, that if nobody hooks up, the call is forwarded to another number. This has been implemented with serial forking. So the dialplan adds branches for all call group members with a q value of 1 and the last branch is the failover number with a lower q value. The branching and failure route works fine.
The problem:
* I have a call group (G Bob 900101), with one participant (Bob 200102).
* The group has a fail over number (if Bob doesn't hook up), which points again to Bob. I know that this use case doesn't make much sense, but it has been simplified to show the problem. The failover number can be anything also another call group which may contain one or more recipients from the first group again.
* Alice (200101) calls the call group
* The first node (
10.0.1.1/10.64.0.1) receives the call and forks it to branch 1 Bob (202102) with q value 1.0 and to a second branch Bob (202102) with q value 0.5. fr_timer is set to 10s
* The call is forwarded to Bobs device (Grandstream GXV3350) and the phone is ringing.
* After 10s, the first node detects the 408 Request Timeout and switches to the second branch
* The invite is sent to node 2 and Bobs device again.
* Node 1 also sends a CANCEL to node 2 and Bobs device for the first branch.
* The call in Bobs device is terminated
* Now the problem, the device does not react to the second INVITE. And after the fr_inv_timer expires, the call is terminated with a 408 Request Timeout.
I can see that the second INVITE contains another branch ID <ID>.1 compared to the first INVITE, which had <ID>.0. The CANCEL is also sent with <ID>.0.
I've also tried with a Cisco 8861 3PCC and it doesn't work either. Compared to the Grandstream, the Cisco device returns an error 500 upon the second INVITE. Since both devices do not accept what I'm trying, I guess I'm doing something wrong...
At the moment I'm a bit lost, what the problem could be.
Does somebody have an idea what it is and how I could solve it?

At the moment, I'm using Kamailio 5.5.4, but I also did a short try with a newer version (I guess it was 5.7.4). Both versions showed the same issue.
