This should be a UNIX style path e.g. /tmp/kamailio.fifo The directory
where the fifo is must be writable by the kamailio user. I thought the line modparam("mi_fifo", "fifo_mode",0666) set the permissions on the folder/file. Also, I tried changing the path to /tmp/kamailio.fifo that did not work either Please change as below:
kamctlrc
## path to FIFO file OSER_FIFO="/tmp/kamailio_fifo"
kamailio.cfg
# ----- mi_fifo params ----- modparam("mi_fifo", "fifo_name", "/tmp/kamailio_fifo")
I have also tried this. Here is what I am getting.
ERROR: Error opening Kamailio's FIFO /tmp/kamailio_fifo ERROR: Make sure you have the line 'modparam("mi_fifo", "fifo_name", "/tmp/kamailio_fifo")' in your config ERROR: and also have loaded the mi_fifo module.
Interesting side note: After the initial installation and reboot, Kamailio came up and was running and kamctl moni displayed the correct results. However after running "service kamailio restart" I began getting the error again and have not been able to clear it.

For anyone else who might not be able to find the old `kamctl lcr`-commands, the alternatives to some can be found here: http://www.kamailio.org/docs/modules/3.1.x/modules/lcr.html#id2960364
Being able to reload the lcr didn't solve my problem though - still not finding any gw when I run next_gw(), so I'm still open for input...

I am getting this error when I try to run kamctl:
ERROR: Error opening Kamailio's FIFO FIFO
ERROR: Make sure you have the line 'modparam("mi_fifo", "fifo_name", "FIFO")' in your config
ERROR: and also have loaded the mi_fifo module.
I am able to start Kamailio with Kamailio start
I have poured over all the responses on Google for two days trying to fix this error. I have tried everything I know of.
I have tried each example.
kamctlrc
DB Path is correct:
# database path used by dbtext or db_berkeley
DB_PATH="/usr/share/kamailio/dbtext"
## control engine: FIFO or UNIXSOCK
## - default FIFO
CTLENGINE="FIFO"
## path to FIFO file
OSER_FIFO="FIFO" (I have already tried commenting this out)
kamailio.cfg
loadmodule "mi_fifo.so"
Path to modules is correct:
mpath="modules_k:modules"
#!else
mpath="/usr/lib/kamailio/modules_k/:/usr/lib/kamailio/modules/"
#!endif
# ----- mi_fifo params -----
modparam("mi_fifo", "fifo_name", "/tmp/kamailio.fifo")
modparam("mi_fifo", "fifo_mode",0666)
This is installed on Ubuntu Server 10.10 64 bit Intel .
Can someone please help?
