Variants of the quoting was referring to the value of DBURL, maybe it
was not clear ... Anyhow, I just tried and the next command starts
kamailio with the default config:
./src/kamailio -f etc/kamailio.cfg -A WITH_MYSQL -A WITH_AUTH -A
DBURL='"mysql://kamailio:kamailiorw@localhost/kamailio"' -L src/modules/
-a no -E -e -ddd
Note that the value for DBURL is enclosed first in between ' ' and then
inside are " ".
Cheers,
Daniel
