if chkconfig isn't working you can add the kamalio startup command in etc/rc.local file. On Mon, Oct 24, 2011 at 6:03 PM, Uri Shacked <ushacked(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Yes, but there is a reason why a service management layer exists on all Linux distributions. Many things can go wrong by starting complex services ad hoc that way, especially services with dependencies. If you want to be creative, be creative, but don't encourage poor practices to newbies. -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 260 Peachtree Street NW Suite 2200 Atlanta, GA 30303 Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Fax: +1-404-961-1892 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/

Sounds like you are trying to use the Debian init script. Use the one intended for CentOS/Redhat environments instead. It is located in: sip-router/pkg/kamailio/rpm -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 260 Peachtree Street NW Suite 2200 Atlanta, GA 30303 Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Fax: +1-404-961-1892 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/

Test the startupscript if they work: /etc/init.d/kamailio start /etc/init.d/kamailio stop If this works, then make sure to have proper symlinks from the corresponding runlevel to the startup script. Do it manually or use the chkconfig tool. klaus On 24.10.2011 08:00, Uri Shacked wrote:

Thanks Alex, Hey Uri, can you check if you've /etc/init.d/kamailio file exists - open that file if exists and cross verify few parameters. Few of these are as follows PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin DAEMON=*/usr/local/sbin/kamailio* NAME=kamailio DESC=kamailio HOMEDIR=/var/run/ *PIDFILE*=$HOMEDIR/$NAME.pid DEFAULTS=*/etc/default/kamailio.default* RUN_KAMAILIO=yes Make sure /etc/default/kamailio.default file exits. here are the contents of my file.

Hi again.... i installed kamailio 3.2.2 today. i used the chkconfig tool to get kamailio run at boot. i edited both /etc/init.d/kamailio and /etc/default/kamailio files to run with 2048Mg of memory. now, when i run /etc/init.d/kamailio start, it starts with the right amount of memory. when i rum "kamailio" only, it starts with 32Mb.... i use centos 6.2 64bit. any ideas?

Hi Sammy, When you use the init script, it is starting Kamailio with the correct arguments to get the environment you wish (-m 2048 probably). If however, you just call kamailio these args are not there. Im not sure why you are running with kamailio command directly. Why don't you add your init script to the appropriate runlevel for auto startup? Cheers Jason On Wed, Feb 1, 2012 at 3:06 PM, Uri Shacked <ushacked(a)gmail.com> wrote:
