Re: [Serusers] Re: [Users] AVPs are lost on relayed INVITE errors

The mistery keeps increasing! I have found that if I set an AVP in an INVITE message, then the same AVP is logged in the ACCOUNTING of the corresponding ACK message! But it is NOT in the ACK message before it enters the transaction engine (with a t_relay()). So it is the transaction engine that "copies" the INVITE AVPS to the ACK. Or the accounting routines use the AVPs from the corresponding INVITE instead of the ACK ones. Is this the expected behaviour? Why this happens? Thanks.
