Hi,

Following a problem with the kamcmd htable.reload with Kamailio 5.0.1 (see related thread for this), I have upgraded to the 5.0.7 level (with some difficulties due to my specific environment).

My server runs the RHEL 7.4 distribution.

Now the upgrade is complete, I notice that that are changes not really documented:

- The kamailio-perl-5.0.7-1.el7.x86_64.rpm requires to install the mod_perl module that doesn’t exist anymore in RHEL 7. It needs to be installed from the EPEL repository

- The init script for kamailio has been changed from the old method to the fully compliant method for system unit for RHEL 7 for example:

With the 5.0.1 level we have the “/etc/rc.d/init.d/kamailio”

With the 5.0.7 level we have now the “/usr/lib/systemd/system/kamailio.service”

So my questions/comments are :

- Why the mod_perl module is required between 5.0.1 and 5.0.7  (question posted in the attached message) ?

- In the previous kamailo init script, I added a condition to start MySQL before kamailio by adding this entry in the script : # Required-Start: $syslog $network $mysqld

The new script contains the After command :

[Unit]

Description=Kamailio (OpenSER) - the Open Source SIP Server

After=network.target

Should I change the After line with this : After=network.target mysql.target to have the same condition?

In all the cases, some documentation must be changed to provide more details.

Thanks in advance for the answers.

Cordialement.
