Abaco,

I'm glad to hear that that tweak worked.

Unfortunately, I think UCTCDF is only a "CDF" in the sense that it has an Rf 
interface.  I don't believe it actually generates CDRs - instead, I think it 
just logs details from the messages it receives.

I think you'll need a better CDF to get proper CDRs, and I'm not aware of an 
open-source one.  Sorry!

Matt

Matt,
first of all thank you for helping, the changes you suggested worked (<Acct 
id="3" vendor="0"/>) now there is a connection and ralf sends ACRs.
Sometimes, the CDF says that fails to find AVPs but I think that is a software 
problem because the messages leaving RALFs are normal in my opinion. Since the 
home page of the project is not working anymore, so no explanation are present, 
I have another little question: in theory as CDF this should generate CDRs, do 
you remember it this is happening and if yes where I can find them?

Thank you very much,

Abaco

Abaco,

I saw your email - it's good to hear you've got Ralf trying to connect to the 
CDF.

Over the last few months, I think there have been a few fixes in Ralf to make 
it more standards-compliant - in particular

- 
https://github.com/Metaswitch/ralf/commit/d30a254309265dd0f0b8009264a4ae1ff842c75a
 - which corrected Ralf to register Rf as an accounting application (rather 
than an authentication application)

- 
https://github.com/Metaswitch/ralf/commit/982f593da833b1779c84f87e09b7330f0e4ec96b
 - which corrected Ralf to register Rf as base application 3, not application 3 
under the 3GPP vendor namespace.

I think UCTCDF would need tweaking to bring it into line with the standards - 
my quick hack a few months ago was just to bring it into line with Ralf which, 
as noted above, was not fully standards-compliant at the time.

I would try modifying 
https://github.com/mirw/uctimscharging/blob/master/UCTCDF/cdf.xml - where it 
says "<Auth id="3" vendor="10415"/>", I think it should say something like 
"<Acct id="3"/>" - or maybe "<Acct id="3" vendor="0"/>"?

Having said that, I haven't tested this at all, so it's a bit of a guess.  As I 
said back in May, even when fully working it doesn't crack out much detail and 
seems to lock up quite a bit.

Please let me know if you do manage to get this working!

Thanks,

Matt

Subject: Re: [Clearwater] Ralf diameter realm

Hi Ellie,
I set now the DNS correctly and Ralf finds the CDF and tries to initiate a 
Diameter connection.
Looking in the mail archive I downloaded this basic CDF patched by Matt 
Williams.

https://github.com/mirw/uctimscharging

I set the parameters and the the software receives the capabilities exchange 
but answers with the  DIAMETER_NO_COMMON_APPLICATION this, I suppose, is the 
reason for which Ralf is not sending ACRs.

I know that this software is not yours and I don't want to waste your time but 
since in May the solution even if buggy was working  for Matt Williams I would 
like to know if something changed (in Clearwater) or If I misconfigured 
something.

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide,

Abaco
