Here is what is going on as best as I understand it. Bear with me as I'm
trying to get my head wrapped around how SER works internally.
I've looked through the docs, but still I have these questions:
1. What does failure_route do with the failed branch? When the DID
Alias->Subscriber call fails, should the failed branch automatically get
removed from the transaction? If not, is there a way for me to remove it?
2. How does lookup() work? README.tm says it looks up and modifies the
current ruri only, but when I perform a lookup("hunt") [again, hunt is a
copy of aliases for the purpose of hunt sequences] it looks up both the
alias and the result of lookup("aliseses") and appends/t_relays them both.
3. Just how does revert_uri work? If I do a lookup("aliases") followed by an
append_branch/t_relay and that fails, does revert_uri remove the failed
brach? or should it get removed based on the fact that it has entered the
failure_route?
4. Is it possible that failure_route is getting called twice with the same
callid for both the DID alias and the SIP target?
When the call times out and goes to failure_route[1], the failed branch is
not getting removed from the transaction so when I lookup() and
append_branch I am looking up and appending the next target in the hunt
sequence for both the DID (alias) and the username (SER account). What I
want to happen is that when the call fails, the failed branch gets removed
from the transaction and I can then revert_uri, do a new lookup() [this time
from the hunt table] and get the next destination in the hunt [be it
voicemail, another SIP UA, or whatever].
If any of what I am describing is unclear, please ask and I will attempt to
clarify. I could really use some advice on this one. From my perspective it
looks as if there is a problem with how something in SER is functioning, but
I know it can likely be fixed in my configs.
Thank you.

I think I am missing something very simple here, but I cannot figure out
what it is.
I have DID aliases set up for SER usernames, so when a call comes in as
2125551234, I do a lookup("aliases") which results in something like
username1(a)sip.mydomain.com. Username1 is the registered SER user. the
numbers are all aliases.
I also have a secondary aliases table called "hunt" which I use to store
call hunt sequences. The problem is that if a user does not pick up the
phone and SER calls failure_route[1], I get a hunt for both 2125551234 and
username1. Shouldn't my revert_uri() in failure_route cause the hunt lookup
to be done on 2125551234 only?
route[7] is called from failure_route only, so there isn't any other logic
that might put me into these route blocks. Included below the call routing
blocks are some syslogs.
If anyone could offer a suggestion or has seen anything like this and
could let me know what they did to solve it I would be eternally grateful.
Thank you.
