I'm trying to rewrite the `From` header in an invite going out to an
external system (*), by calling remove_hf("From");
followed by
append_hf("From: <some value>\r\n");but the result is an invalid SIP message, because apparently after `remove_hf()` finishes, it leaves the content of $fU in place of the `From` header - just the raw text, without a header name or even a "\r\n" - and that eats the next header line and breaks the INVITE. Here is how the INVITE originally looks (without either `remove_hf()` or `append_hf()`): ---8<--- INVITE sip:[email protected]:5060 SIP/2.0 Record-Route: <sip:10.90.80.70;lr;did=649.f0b> Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.90.80.70:5060;branch=z9hG4bK6188.ff5c4fd855bd2970fdf32d4807b114c2.0 Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.90.80.71:5066;received=10.90.80.71;branch=z9hG4bK581897a4;rport=5066 Max-Forwards: 69 From: <sip:[email protected]:5066>;tag=as0bcee217 To: <sip:[email protected]:5060> Contact: <sip:[email protected]:5066> Call-ID: [email protected]:5066 CSeq: 102 INVITE User-Agent: Asterisk PBX 14.7.2 Date: Sun, 26 May 2019 14:42:52 GMT Allow: INVITE, ACK, CANCEL, OPTIONS, BYE, REFER, SUBSCRIBE, NOTIFY, INFO, PUBLISH, MESSAGE Supported: replaces X-CID: ad199638-4df3-4aef-81f1-1b50581032a7 Content-Type: application/sdp Content-Length: 280 v=0 o=root 817636675 817636675 IN IP4 10.50.60.70 s=Asterisk PBX 14.7.2 c=IN IP4 10.50.60.70 t=0 0 m=audio 39064 RTP/AVP 8 0 18 9 a=maxptime:60 a=rtpmap:8 PCMA/8000 a=rtpmap:0 PCMU/8000 a=rtpmap:18 G729/8000 a=rtpmap:9 G722/8000 a=sendrecv a=rtcp:39065 a=ptime:20 ---8<--- and here is another call with the same setup, with just `remove_hf("From");` being invoked (without calling `append_hf()` - this is just for reproduction): ---8<--- INVITE sip:[email protected]:5060 SIP/2.0 Record-Route: <sip:10.90.80.70;lr;did=f45.91b1> Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.90.80.70:5060;branch=z9hG4bK024d.2690ebf7a809edca2208e6b2561ccf9e.0 Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.90.80.71:5066;received=10.90.80.71;branch=z9hG4bK79ae3073;rport=5066 Max-Forwards: 69 972515340014To: <sip:[email protected]:5060> Contact: <sip:[email protected]:5066> Call-ID: [email protected]:5066 CSeq: 102 INVITE User-Agent: Asterisk PBX 14.7.2 Date: Sun, 26 May 2019 14:44:20 GMT Allow: INVITE, ACK, CANCEL, OPTIONS, BYE, REFER, SUBSCRIBE, NOTIFY, INFO, PUBLISH, MESSAGE Supported: replaces X-CID: ffbb4ac1-3a0f-4dd6-9ce9-7ad24361081a Content-Type: application/sdp Content-Length: 280 v=0 o=root 509740923 509740923 IN IP4 10.50.60.70 s=Asterisk PBX 14.7.2 c=IN IP4 10.50.60.70 t=0 0 m=audio 39102 RTP/AVP 8 0 18 9 a=maxptime:60 a=rtpmap:8 PCMA/8000 a=rtpmap:0 PCMU/8000 a=rtpmap:18 G729/8000 a=rtpmap:9 G722/8000 a=sendrecv a=rtcp:39103 a=ptime:20 ---8<--- As you can see, the `From` header is indeed gone, but it left the $fU just before the `To` header. WTF? I'm running Kamailio 5.2.2 built locally. Notes: *) the problem I'm trying to solve is that I can't get my Asterisk installation to generate the `From` header I want, the reason is out of scope of this question, so I'm sending custom SIP headers over to Kamaiio and I want to rewrite the header in Kamailio to the "correct" value. -- Oded Arbel _______________________________________________ Kamailio (SER) - Users Mailing List [email protected] https://lists.kamailio.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sr-users
