Thanks Charles,

Forgive my ignorance - what is SVN? And where can I get hold of the
package containing it?

Thanks,

Thanks Charles,
We've got rid of some of the errors now. These are the latest versions
of the scenario files and config files. They work in 3.0 and not in 3.1.
The error we get from transfer-to-ss is:-

In pcap pcap/dtmf_2833_1.pcap, npkts 10
max pkt length 24
base port 1
In pcap pcap/t30sec.pcap, npkts 1094
max pkt length 180
base port 49172
2008-05-21  10:13:10:0761211375590.076638: The label 'master'
was not defined (index 9, ontimeout attribute) .


(Also - XMLPad still picks up an error in the DTD shipped with both
versions, so you might want to see if you can fix that one too.)


Thanks,
Michael

SIPp's XML parser is unfortunately not an XML parser, so errors are not
caught very well at all.

The timeout value should be fine.  What is the precise error message you

see (please copy and paste).  Any extra spaces or things would mess up
this value.

If you want help getting the scenario loaded you should post it if at
all possible.

Re: [Sipp-users] 3.1 - scenarios don't work, no documentation,  not

Hi,
Ok, done a bit more investigation and I?d like to share our progress
with 
you and how we went about it ? because it was a bit arduous and
hopefully 
someone will get some benefit from our experience even though we still 
can?t get it working with version 3.1.
 
When we loaded the scenario into a different XML editor we found a
missing 
tag. However ? we also found a problem in the DTD which might explain
why 
our original XML editor didn?t pick up our missing tag. 
 
The error in the DTD we get is at line 21:  !ATTLIST exec command CDATA
 
 - we don?t know what this is about or whether it is serious or not, 
anyway we fixed the missing tag in our XML, but we were then back to
where 
we were before (almost), with the scenario working in 3.0 but not in
3.1. 
 
When we ran it in 3.0 it created calls and it worked. In 3.1 we got an 
error, it complained about the label ?m? which we used to denote the 
master. 
 
The way we successfully debugged was to remove the block with ?m? in it.

SIPP then complained about something in the block above it, we deleted 
this block and guess what ? it complained about the block above that. We

did this iteratively until SIPP started successfully and then we
examined 
the block we had just removed. We found a couple of extraneous bits in 
there, an assignment which was never used and a tretrans on a receive 
command which obviously wasn?t necessary.
 
During the debug process we found out that it didn?t like a timeout
value 
of 180, having removed that it now works on v3.0 and performs very 
well ? still no joy with 3.1 though.
 
Question ? is there a limit on values for timeouts? We need a long
timeout 
because we have queuing on our sip server.
 
Thanks,
Michael

Hello Michael,
Due to the fact that many new features have been added in this release, 
and usage of few have changed from before,
it would be useful if you can mention what exactly is the problem faced
by 
your team regarding 3pcc and other issues.
That would help to fix whatever issues are there.
 
Documentation is very much available under current documentation,
which 
you can refer.
http://sipp.sourceforge.net/doc/reference.html
 
Thanks
Anuj

SVN is subversion (like CVS), which is the source code control that we use 
for SIPp development.

With a new Fedora or RedHat you can probably type svn to see if you have 
it.  If not you can use yum to install subversion.

This page has the URL to the SIPp repository 
http://sipp.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Dev, which is:
https://sipp.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/sipp/sipp/trunk

And this is a basic tutorial if you are familiar with CVS:

2008-05-23 Thread Michael Lynch
Thanks Charles, I'm not sure what you're saying though. What I meant to
ask was how do I get the fix for our issue? i.e. a SIPP release package
containing the fix? Will there be a release soon? Or are you saying that
the only way I can get the fix is by checking the latest code out of
SVN?

Thanks again,
Michael
