Hello Anca.
I have modparam("presence", "force_active", 1) in my config file but
there is no message body being generated.
I suppose I am a little confused on exactly how the new presence
module is supposed to work and hopefully someone can help explain.
Here is the way I understand it to work:
Let's say I have 2 Polycom phones, 1000 and 1001. Say that 1001 sends
a SUBSCRIBE to openser for 1000. Openser then makes note in the
active_watchers table that 1001 wants to know about events for 1000.
Openser then generates and sends NOTIFY messages to 1001 when things
change for 1000. Where I'm confused is what criteria are being used
to generate the NOTIFY messages? Is it based on registration state or
are the NOTIFY messages generated based on active SIP dialogs? For
example, if 1000 is active and on a call, in dialog, by virtue of it
getting a INVITE and then sending a 200 OK, does openser then send a
NOTIFY to 1001 telling it that 1000 is busy so that 1001 can display
this however it chooses? I'm just confused as to what is triggering
the NOTIFY messages which are sent back out to the subscriber. Do the
pua modules serve some role here? Specifically, does the pua_usrloc
need to be used?
Also, since the new presence modules have been introduced, is the
older pa module going to be depricated or will it continue to be
developed? Presently in 1.2, I cannot get pa to work as the database
structure is not correct, at least for postgres.
Sorry for all of the questions, I'm just really having a hard time
trying to figure out how all of the presence modules work together
with the openser core to provide presence functionality.
Cheers,
-Curt

Hello,
Presence module does support xpidf type. What I am guessing is that you
have not set the force_active parameter to 1.
This is why the Notify messages have no body.
Set the parameter in your configuration file and try again.

Hello all.
I've been experimenting with the new presence module in openser-1.2
and have a few questions which hopefully someone can help answer.
I'm using an SVN checkout of the 1.2 branch, r2237, and am testing
with Polycom SoundPoint IP phones, firmware 2.1.1.0052.
From what I can tell, openser 1.2 does not fully
support the xpidf
content type, it only supoorts the winfo content type. I've looked
through the code for the presence module extensively and it appears
that whenever a SUBSCRIBE comes in where the Event header is simply
"Event: presence" and the Accept header is "Accept:
application/xpidf+xml", the message is acceped and a 202 is sent in
reply but in any NOTIFY sent from openser as a result, there is no
message body and the message does not contain the XML information for
pidf.
Just as a test, I changed the event field in active_watchers to
"presence.winfo" and noticed that with this change, openser generates
a NOTIFY with a message body which contains watcherinfo. This, of
course, generates a 481 from the phone since it does not know about
the "Event: presence.winfo" event type.
Also as a test, I tried to use the pa module as I'd had success with
this module in the past since it _does_ support xpidf. In 1.2 it
appears that the database structure specified in the databse setup
scripts does not agree with the table structure being used in the
module. As a result, I could not get the pa module to work either.
Am I overlooking some small detail?
Please let me know if further information is needed in order to help
diagnose and resolve this issue.
Cheers,
-Curt
