I am not necessarily looking for somebody to tell me how to fix my code,
more for somebody to suggest how it might be done or how they have done it.
Thoughts:
1. Is there a way for one branch to check the status of another?
2. Do you think it is possible with AVP to lookup from original ruri and
then append_brach only if lookup suceeds?

I am having a problem with calls that are parallel forked. The problem
happens when a call comes in, gets forked using multiple aliases and one UA
is unavailable. The question is, how do I handle the offline call leg?
I can't do if (!lookup("location")) { break; (or
sl_send_reply("404") }
because then the whole call dies since each branch of the call uses the same
callid.
If I t_relay them both, then the fork works but I the offline leg gets
repeatedly relayed unltil I get a 483 "Too many hops". This scenario would
be OK [althought certainly not ideal], except it does not allow me to add a
condition to hunt to the next number upon a failed lookup("location"). If I
do, the online UA will ring once and the offline UA will get routed
immediately to voicemail which picks up after just one ring.
How are other handling these problems? I think the answer lies in letting
failure_route handle everything, but I don't know how to get that to work
because if I don't handle the offline users in the (!lookup("location"), I
end up with routing loops and eventualluy a 483. Anybody that has no online
contacts whatsoever never makes it to failure_route (where the forward to VM
is handled).
Below is my ser.cfg. I've been playing around with things like if
(isflagset(6)) { route(x) } but I still need some way to handle the failed
portion of the fork. Is there a way to "null route" the failed portion or
something?
route {
/* Registration and other logic snipped for brevity */
# Translate local address according to aliases table
xlog("L_INFO", "%ci: Preparing to look up alias for %ru\n");
if(lookup("aliases")) {
xlog("L_NOTICE", "%ci: alias lookup changed uri to %ru\n");
if (!(uri==myself)) {
xlog("L_NOTICE", "%ci: Outbound aliases %ru\n");
route(4);
break;
};
};

(uri=~"^sip:011[0-9]+@.*") | (uri=~"^sip:1[0-9]{10}@.*") ) {
route(3); # 3: PSTN with authentication
break;
};
# Anything left is a local call.
xlog("L_INFO", "%ci: Preparing to look up location for %ru\n");
if (!lookup("location")) {
xlog("L_NOTICE", "%ci: no location for %ru\n");
setflag(5);
} else {
# Had a sucessful lookup
setflag(6);
};
route(4);
}
route[4] {
# If an invitation, we want to hunt on failure
if(method == "INVITE") {
t_on_failure("1"); # first hunt
};
append_hf("P-hint: relay\r\n");
xlog("L_NOTICE", "%ci: r4: t_relay %ru\n");
if (!t_relay()) {
xlog("L_NOTICE", "%ci: %ru r4: Relay Failed\n");
sl_reply_error();
break;
};
}
failure_route[1] { revert_uri(); route(7); } ### Handle hunt sequences.
