Hello,
using openserctl to start/stop is obsolete, you have to use the init.d
script for you distribution. Here there are, in your source tree:
Debian: etc/openser.init
RH/Fedora: packaging/rpm/openser.init
Suse: openser.init.SuSE
Just copy this file in /etc/init.d/openser and then use:
/etc/init.d/openser start
/etc/init.d/openser stop
If you have a custom installation you may need to edit
'/etc/init.d/openser'.
Cheers,
Daniel

Hi,
I have openser working now. i have installed it from src
yesterday after manually deleting all the files installed from
binaries. i have added database support and now it is working fine
with authentication. i have tried openserctl start and stop and the
first time they worked fine. but now if i type openserctl start, it
either tells me no /var/run/openser.pid file found or it shows
starting openser and then the cursor keeps blinking but i dont see the
pid number of openser. but registrations keep happening . pls let me
know what to do..
Thanks a lot for all the help.

Hi,
Sorry, but I never tried installing it from binaries. So i have no
idea about whether installing it from src will overwrite or not.
But I guess, it should overwrite. But not very sure.
Another long way to delete is only locating the openser files and
removing it mannually.

Jayesh

Hi Jayesh,
I think you were mentioning about openser-1.0.1_src.tar.gz
(that is from src directory of openser download) and i
installed from bin directory of openser download area. The
bin's tar ball is openser-1.0.1_linux_i386.tar.gz. and when
that is installed, it does not show any openser-1.0.1
directory. it automatically loads various modules at their
respective places and there is no Makefile i could see in it
to edit it for mysql support. I have now openser from src. it
is exactly as u mentioned.... this i have downloaded and
installed as a user and not as root just to verify the
directory structure of openser. i guess it is the right way to
do and now i want to install it as root. should i delete the
previous openser installations in that path and then install
or when i install the src, it will automatically overwrite the
existing onces? i am asking this because as root if i delete
them it might damage the file system. again thanks so
much....pls help me out!
Thanks and Regards,
Padmaja

Hi padmaja,
I guess there should have been a standalone directory
called openser1.0.1 after you untar the .tar.gz file
using tar -xzvf. In that directory itself there is
file called Makefile in which the mysql module is
excluded by default.
Did you also check the logs in /var/log/messages about
what is the error. Those messages are helpful to debug.
You dont always need to go to sbin to start openser,
there is a command called openserctl start to start it.
I have a suggestion for you. Please visit onsip.org
and register on that site. They have very good getting
started documents which will help you.
You can then structure your openser.cfg the way you want.
w/regards,
Jayesh.
Hi Jayesh,
Thank you so much for the reply. I have downloaded the
version openser-1.0.1 from cvs. I thought that is a
stable release and no changes are going to be made to
it. Do i have to again revert to the tar.gx version?
Also please look at what happened when i previously
installed the .tar.gz version of openser before doing
the cvs
1. downloaded openser-1.0.1-linux_i386.tar.gz version
as root.
2. It is now under / (the root directory). after that
i did unzip and untar on that.
3. the file and modules are loaded into the
subdirectories of the /usr directory.I could not
anywhere find a standalone directory called
openser-1.0.1 with the directory sip-server in it.
also there is no makefile here.... (All these i see
when i download it thru CVS in the /usr/local/src
directory.)
4. I tried to see through the list for the module
mysql.so but i could not find it....and so for uri_db
module also. these modules are present when i install
openser thru cvs
5. i did not do any make on it. I thought it is
precompiled version and will automatically get
installed when i do the untar and unzip. please
correct me if the tar version also has to go thru make
6. i ran openser through /usr/local/sbin/openser
start. and it ran successfully... it showd the tcp and
udp ports on which it is running..i could register my
sip UA without authentication.
7. then i wanted to set it up for mysql support. i
edited the config file and uncommented the necessary
modules and tried to create the openser databse in
mysql. here it failed stating ha1 calculation failed..
also it states there is no mysql.so module which is true.
Please let me know if I have made any mistakes in the
installation process.... I am new to openser.. now if
i want to revert to .tar.gz version, will all the
openser modules and config files from the cvs be
replaced by the tar.gz version? or will there be
duplicate entries left?
Thanks again
Regards,
Padmaja

Hi padmaja,
Running openser from cvs would not solve your problem.
Openser from cvs is the development version which will
be released after final testing is done.
To be safe, its better if you use .tar.gz file to
install. For enabling mysql, go to the openser
directory and you'll find a makefile. In the makefile
there is a line exclude_modules?= somewhere around
line no.49. From there just remove mysql and recompile
it again.
You can start openser using openserctl start from the
command line.
To check for some errors you can set debug=9 in the
openser.cfg file.
Normally the logs are stored into /var/log/messages.
You can check for errors in this file.
Hi!
there is something I need to mention here with respect
to openser not
working.....
Initially I had openser installed from .tar.gz and i
could run it from
/usr/local/sbin/openser. It worked fine that way
without any authentication.
I could see local registration of my sip UAs with the
openser being
successful. then i set up mysql. It too started
successfulyy thru webmin.
next I tried to create the openser database in mysql from
/usr/sbin/openser_mysql.sh create. It prompted me for
the root password of
mysql, the domain name and then failed stating that
the Ha1 calculation
failed. also when i tried to modify the openser.cfg
file to support mysql
database i found that there is no mysql.so module in the
/usr/local/lib/openser/modules/ path.
Because of the above problems, I tried installing
openser from CVS and here
all the modules and configuration files are present in
the respective
locations as mentioned in the web link for installing
openser. I could even
create the openser database structures in mysql. i
tried uncommenting the
needed modules for database suppport. now when i try
to run openser thru
monit, there is absolutely no response and openser
does not look like
running............
I am a newbie at openser......please help me which way
i should run
openser.....
thanks and regards,
Padmaja
