Hi Larry,
Check your subscribers table. Your users were created with the right domain?. What domain is in the opensserctlrc (The default domain to create users).
You may create users for an specific domain using openserctl add 1...@domain 1000.
Follow the book step by step, do the labs in the sequence, the lab for multiple domain is in the section Multiple Domains. If you are trying to use multiple domains before getting there, it probably won't work. All the labs of the book were tested, so I'm sure they work.
when starting openser, use openser -c to check for syntax errors. If you don't get to start, check the syslog in /var/log/syslog, you will find error messages there. Try to run your script with another screen with the ouput generated by tail /var/log/syslog -f.
Sometimes is easier to get back and start from scratch, even a missing character such as "{ ) ;" is enough to ruin a script. Use the default script again and increment it step by step.

Hi Bogdan, Thanks for your help very very much.
I edited /etc/openser/openser.cfg adding alias="usmetrotel.com" and restarted
OpenSER. It crashes the openser daemon.
what you mean by "crash" ? does not start? do you get an error and it
stops?

I cannot place calls, but I can see the SIP messages from the softphones when I
do the ngrep on the OpenSER. I statically entered the extensions 1000 and 1001
in the OpenSER via the:
/sbin/openserctl add 1000 password [email protected]
/sbin/openserctl add 1001 password [email protected]
Commands, as the book states to do.
So when I perform an "openserctl ul show" I expected to see my two statically
entered users (1000 and 1001) show up. But here is what comes back:
database engine "MYSQL" loaded
Control engine "FIFO" loaded
entering fifo_cmd ul_dump
200 OK
Domain:: aliases table=512 records=0 max_slot=0
Domain:: location table=512 records=0 max_slot=0
FIFO command was:
:ul_dump:openser_receiver_31972
If I try to run:
/sbin/openserctl add 1000 password [email protected] or
/sbin/openserctl add 1001 password [email protected]
again, the system tells me:
database engine "MYSQL" loaded
Control engine 'FIFO' loaded
is_user: user counter=1
ERROR: user 1000 already exists.
Yet if I try to remove it using:
/sbin/openserctl rm 1000
the command hangs with this output:
database engine "MYSQL" loaded
Control engine "FIFO" loaded
is_user: user counter=1
Also, when I run the command "openserctl domain showdb" it displays:
+----+----------------+---------------------+
| id | domain | last_modified |
+----+----------------+---------------------+
| 1 | usmetrotel.com | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 |
+----+----------------+---------------------+
So I am not sure if the server knows that it hosts the domain usmetrotel.com
and the extensions 1000 and 1001 for that domain or not.
Not sure how to tell the openser.cfg that usmetrotel.com is a local domain and make my soft phones
communicate with the OpenSER. According to everything I have read in the book, it states it should
be working. Perhaps the next section on page 101 "Enhancing The Script" and page 102
"Managing Multiple Domains" will make thing s more clear. I guess I was expecting the
calls to work as the book states they should be working and able to call each other several times
by this point.
Again I appreciate the help, very much.
Thanks
LK

No, it is not in RC file, but in opensips.cfg - there you need to
configure that domains should be considered as local.

Bogdan,
Assuming you are talking about the file /etc/openser/openserctlrc; at the top
of that script it shows:
## your SIP domain
SIP_DOMAIN=usmetrotel.com
Would I still need to place: alias="usmetrotel.com" or ALIAS=USMEROTEL.COM in
there and restart the daemon? All the variables look to be all CAPS. Not certain if the
/sbin/openserctlrc cares or not.
Right underneath the SIP_DOMAIN=usmetrotel.com line in /etc/openser/openser.cfg I added
ALIAS="usmetrotel.com" and restarted the service. It restarted okay so this did
not apparently break the OpenSER service. I'll try registering the X-Lite phones and let
you know what happens.

Bogdan,
Thanks always for your very much appreciated help!
Is that in the /etc/openser/openser.cfg in /etc/openser/openserctl or some
other file?
In /etc/openser/openser.cfg a search for the word "alias" shows results at Line
151 at Col 25 as:
lookup("aliases");
And then again at line 153 Column 53 as:
append_hf ("P-hint: outbound alias\r\n");
In /etc/openser/openserctlrc the word alias appears several times commented out
at Line 31 and then two lines down as a variable:
ALIASES+TYPE="DB"
It seems more like it would go in this file but I have no idea, I am not a Kung
Fu Master with C or OpenSER either. I am having a tough go of it.

Hi Larry,
most probably your opensips does not recognize the usmetrotel.com as a
local domain, so it is keep forwarding the request to itself.
adding something like:
alias="usmetrotel.com"
in your script should solve the problem.

After Bogdan helped me to correct my errors I was able to manually register
extension 1000 on my OpenSER 1000 by entering: /sbin/openstlrc add 1000
password [email protected]
Then when I went to register my soft-phone to the OpenSER as extension 1000. On my
soft-phone (X-Lite 3.0 running on WinXP) I got the message "503 - Message Too
Big". I corrected this by editing the file on the OpenSER /etc/openser/openser.cfg
(at line 96 Column 24) increasing the default value from 2048 to 8192.
Then I got the message "483 - Too Many Hops" on my soft phone. So back on the OpenSER I
edited /etc/openser/openser.cfg (at Line 91 Column 40) and increased the default value from 10 to
100. I still got the "488 - Too Many Hops" message on the client.
So I ran a SIP capture on the OpenSER by using the command: ngrep -p -q -W byline
port 5060 >test.txt
Here is the output of that capture:

I am not sure what else it could be with the Soft-phone client or OpenSER.
Here is a brief outlook of what my IP network & traffic routing looks like:
Network/Device Private IP
Public IP (if it has one)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Network 1 (Private LAN):
My WinXP PC containing X-Lite Soft Phone 172.20.30.22 None
Default gateway: 172.20.30.254
208.76.137.2
-Internet
-Network 2 (DMZ):
My OpenSER Server: 10.100.100.199 =
208.76.137.116
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Questions:
- Do you think the OpenSER is having trouble making its way back to the
soft-client or to the Internet based on what the SIP capture shows?
- Could the OpenSER have a problem leaving one private network, traversing the
Internet, and then going back into another private network?
- Do I perhaps need to somehow add a route on the OpenSER server to tell it how
to get to that remote network?

Bogdan,
Thank you very much for your help with OpenSER. I have seen many people report this issue in
forums but was never really able to see where folks found a resolve for this. I see too in
Flavio's book on page 100 where he states what the user openser's password must be entered as
when adding VoIP extensions. In the book it states to change HAS_SERWEB="yes". I
guess later on it will cover the PHP & SerMyAdmin possibilities. Now that I know that
this is controlled in this location if I need the SERWEB enabled again, I can as needed and
then restart OpenSER. Now I can move on to getting the VoIP X-Lite soft-phones to register to
OpenSER and make hopefully make interdomain test calls.
Here is my output now:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MY-SERVERS-NAME:/etc/openser# /sbin/openserctl add 1000 password
[email protected] database engine 'MYSQL' loaded Control engine 'FIFO' loaded
is_user: user counter=0
check_db_alias: alias counter=0
MySql password for user 'open...@localhost':
new user '1000' added
MY-SERVERS-NAME:/etc/openser# /sbin/openserctl add 1001 password 1001@
mydomain.com database engine 'MYSQL' loaded Control engine 'FIFO' loaded
is_user: user counter=0
check_db_alias: alias counter=0

Hi Larry,
in openserctlrc check for the SERWEB compatibility field and disable it.
When this is enabled, openserctl tries to populate the phplib_id field in the
subscriber table (which by default does not exists).

I am certain for anyone experienced this is an easy fix, so help me
out OpenSIPS community.
I am using OpenSER Source 1.2.2 on Linux version 2.6.26-2-686 (Debian
2.6.26-19) (gcc version 4.1.3 20080704 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.2-25)).
I am using Flavio's book. On page 100 (Adding Authentication with
MySQL) at step 4 it states:
Configure two user accounts using the openserctl utility.
/sbin/openserctl add 1000 password [email protected] (mydomain.com)
/sbin/openserctl add 1001 password [email protected] (mydomain.com)
In either instance the system returns:
Database 'MYSQL' loaded
Control engine 'FIFO' loaded
is_user: user counter=0
check_db_alias: alias counter=0
*ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'openser'@'localhost'
(using password: YES)*
or
*ERROR 1054 (42S22) at line 1: Unknown column 'phplib_id' in 'field
list'*
*ERROR: introducing the new user'1000' to the database failed*
I have verified that the users openser, openserro and root have the
correct passwords to access the MySQL database named openser (as one
forum stated it was a password issue). I have tried several changes to
the file /etc/openser/openserctlrc as several online forums indicated
this was the issue. I have found this listed in many online forums but
I have not been able to fix this trying several of the things that are
mentioned.
Can anyone on this [email protected] please advise me? I am
using OpensSER 1.2.2 as that is what the book I have procured
indicates to use and I want to strictly follow what Flavio's book
states to use. Thanks in advance.
Respectfully,
