Asterisk kamailio

subham06 · January 2, 2019, 1:31pm

Hi,
I am using kamailio to load balance asterisk servers. All register request are forwarded to one asterisk which is storing contact details in database. Now on receiving INVITE, kamailio is selecting asterisk server in round robin fashion. I was hoping other asterisk server could read contact details from database. In my case contact details are getting populated in ps_contacts table, but when making sip call following error is coming
“Everyone is busy/congested at this time (1:0/0/1)
– Auto fallthrough, channel ‘xyz’ status is ‘CHANUNAVAIL’”.

And this error is only coming when the INVITE gets forwarded to asterisk which did not register the device.

You haven’t stated your configuration. Are you using sorcery caching? What is the sorcery configuration? Have you looked at the CLI output of “pjsip show contacts” to see if they can be listed on the other server?

pjsip show contacts output:
These two endpoints are stored in database. And this output is from other server where register request is not sent

Hello,

  are you tried using pjsip_dial_contacts function instead of DIAL application?

regards

jcolp · January 2, 2019, 2:02pm

Is qualify enabled? It may be because of that. Like I stated originally though, this isn’t something that to my knowledge anyone has explicitly worked on.

subham06 · January 2, 2019, 2:03pm

I added exten => _6XXX, 1 ,Dial(${PJSIP_DIAL_CONTACTS(${EXTEN})}) in the extensions.conf file. And following output is coming repeatedly and call could not get placed.

jcolp · January 2, 2019, 2:04pm

Does it actually attempt to send the SIP requests? (pjsip set logger on will output them)

subham06 · January 2, 2019, 2:26pm

If the INVITE is one sent from Asterisk, then it appears to be trying to establish a call but getting no response.

subham06 · January 2, 2019, 2:33pm

And output is coming in a loop. And finally asterisk server is getting crashed.

Disconnected from Asterisk server.

In the above message via header is appearing twice and both have same ip. Is it possible that because of this it is falling in a loop.

jcolp · January 2, 2019, 2:34pm

Yes. You haven’t described what IPs are what or the layout of things, so it is entirely possible that it is looping.

subham06 · January 2, 2019, 2:38pm

Actually looping issue has appeared now. Earlier I was getting channel unavailable error.

subham06 · January 2, 2019, 2:48pm

I have one kamailio server with ip 34.215.xxx.xx
2 asterisk server with ip 34.220.xx.xx and 54.202.xxx.xx
first asterisk is registering all the requests and then all invite requests are load balanced using round robin method.
I have created a common RDS instance and contact details are stored in ‘ps_contacts’ table.
I am making sip calls from a private network. When call is getting forwarded to first asterisk everything is working fine, but when it is forwarded to second asterisk it is showing channel unavailable error. And surprisingly now I am getting above output in a loop.

jcolp · January 2, 2019, 2:57pm

Then you’re going to need to look at the entire flow, including Kamailio, and understand why a loop is occurring.

subham06 · January 2, 2019, 3:07pm

I think there was some issue with my endpoint. After changing endpoints I am getting following error. INVITE request is actually sent 3 times before giving error.

Did you look at the SIP trace at all yourself or just paste it here? You need to be able to read and understand such things if you are deploying/using SIP.

I have got 404 NOT FOUND error also above but endpoint entry is there in table.

Have you followed the full communication because it still seems to be looping. As well it is dialing extension “sipML5” which would need to exist in the Asterisk dialplan. Simply being a configured PJSIP endpoint doesn’t make it exist in the dialplan unless you’ve written logic to do so.

I have added ‘sipML5’ endpoint in dialplan. And my concern is in INVITE request asterisk is changing the contact field. If you see INVITE request contact filed is “Contact: sip:asterisk@54.202.xxx.xx:5060” .
It should be endpoint to which we are calling and not asterisk. For that I have set rewrite_contact so no, still the issue persist.
