Hello,

kamailio is in the default debian stable repository -- you should just run:

apt-get update
apt-get install kamailio kamailio-mysql-modules
apt-get install mysql-server

Edit /etc/kamailio/kamctlrc and set the database engine to MYSQL, adjust other settings there as you want.

Run:

kamdbctl create

Edit /etc/kamailio/kamailio.cfg and enable the features you want.

Edit /etc/default/kamailio to enable starting kamailio, then run:

/etc/init.d/kamailio start

On the other hand, can you point of what guidelines you followed and you couldn't complete? What are these "2 sets of paths involved in documentation/procedures plus a reference to a 3rd which caused a complete failure "?

Cheers,
Daniel

I tried installing the pre-compiled version of 4.3 under Debian and had all sorts of problems. I found there were 2 sets of paths involved in documentation/procedures plus a reference to a 3rd which caused a complete failure when the directory referred to was missing. I ran into more problems when I tried to access my server from outside my network (static IP). So I thought I’d bite the bullet and install from source. I get to the bit where I am creating the database and even more errors:

cannot connect to local mysql server

kamdbctl.mysql 112: unary operator expected

In one part of the procedure it refers to db_mysql and another to mysql. Is there a simple installation guide around anywhere which will help me get around all these problems? All I want is a Debian with KAMAILIO running on it!
