The root cause is that opensips creates multiple, concurrent NOTIFY transactions for the same dialog. This failure could be avoided by queuing subsequent NOTIFY messages until response for prior message is received. The full details: say opensips creates two concurrent NOTIFY transactions: A and B. The first transmission of A is lost in the network, then B is delivered to the client, and then a retransmission of A is delivered to the client. This is out of order: client gets B before A. Depend upon the client, it will either accept A and process it like normal, drop it A, or send a 500 response to A. For full-state events like presence with "good" clients this is a benign failure. But for conference events (RFC4575) which is partial state, this is fatal.

The solution that Kennard proposed - to wait for the reply of the previous Notify is good and will solve this issue. I have changed the type of this report in feature request and we will try to solve it. Of course, if you are willing to contribute with the implementation you are more that welcomed :). Regards, Anca ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Aron Rosenberg (amr42) Date: 2010-09-16 03:24 Message: Another very common way this can occur is if two PUBLISH messages come in very close in time. The presence module will start sending out the NOTIFY's for PUSBLISH 1, and then create a new set of NOTIFY's when PUBLISH 2 arrives. PUBLISH 1 and 2 could be from the same endpoint, or from different endpoints on the same URI. One use case that tends to trigger this is when a UAC auto changes its "presence" status upon receiving an incoming call. If an INVITE forks to two endpoints both endpoints will issue PUBLISH extremmly close in time causing the presence server to have NOTIFY transactions with multiple CSeq numbers on the wire at the same time. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=1086413&aid=3067207&group_id=232389 _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.opensips.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel
