Looking at sipXproxy.log, I see that they are not logging at INFO level.
Have these people not been informed how to obtain diagnostic
information?

sipXproxy.log does, however, log the failed database operations.  If I
pull it into Emacs without character-set translation, I see text strings
which are not valid UTF-8 encodings.  Since the SIP messages aren't
logged, I can't tell where those string come from, but I suspect that
they are from the SIP messages, and that the phones are generating
incorrect UTF-8 for the non-Latin characters.

This may portend difficulties, because it's quite possible that
sipXconfig is creating config files for the phones that contain
non-UTF-8 byte strings.  Or maybe the users are entering them through
the phones' web interfaces.  In any case, there may be some serious
difficult in ensuring that non-Latin characters are always translated
into UTF-8 properly.
