Installing OpenSIPS on Ubuntu-Server 11.04 (Natty)


OpenSIPS is a SIP server, I don't think I can explain this all myself so copying from the project's main page


What OpenSIPS is
OpenSIPS (Open SIP Server) is a mature Open Source implementation of a SIP server. OpenSIPS is more than a SIP proxy/router as it includes application-level functionalities. OpenSIPS, as a SIP server, is the core component of any SIP-based VoIP solution. With a very flexible and customizable routing engine,OpenSIPS 'unifies voice, video, IM and presence services in a highly efficient way, thanks to its scalable (modular) design.
What OpenSIPS has to offer, comes in a reliable and high-performance flavour - OpenSIPS is one of the fastest SIP servers, with a throughput that confirms it as a solution up to enterprise or carrier-grade class.

Now moving onwards with steps to install the SIP server.

First update the repository and package indexes to install the latest available pakcages.

root@OSIPS_SBC# apt-get update
Install the required libraries/packages
root@OSIPS_SBC# apt-get install build-essential openssl bison flex mysql-server libmysqlclient16 libmysqlclient-dev libsctp-dev openssl libssl-dev libradiusclient-ng-dev libxml2-dev libxml2 libconfuse0 libconfuse-dev libdb-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libcurl3 libpostgresql-ocaml-dev libpq-dev unixodbc-dev libpcre3-dev libexpat1-dev libjson0-dev libmemcached-dev libmemcache-dev libxmlrpc-c3-dev libgeoip-dev python-dev libsnmp-dev


Download and extract opensips source tarball

root@OSIPS_SBC# wget http://opensips.org/pub/opensips/1.7.2/src/opensips-1.7.2_src.tar.gz
root@OSIPS_SBC# tar zxvf opensips-1.7.2_src.tar.gz 
root@OSIPS_SBC# cd opensips-1.7.2-tls/
UPDATE: The newer OpenSIPS version (1.8 onwards) don't need to edit Makefile and select the packages like below. Visit the lastes blog-post on OpenSIPS+Cassandra Integration to see how that works. (Hint: make menuconfig)

Edit "Makefile" to include your required modules.

root@Osips-SBC# vim Makefile

Uncomment the following lines to enable their functionality.
TLS=1
SCTP=1

Include modules to be installed.

Comment out this all directive:

exclude_modules?= b2b_logic jabber cpl-c xmpp rls \
mi_xmlrpc xcap_client db_mysql db_postgres db_unixodbc \
db_oracle db_berkeley aaa_radius osp perl snmpstats \
perlvdb carrierroute mmgeoip presence presence_xml presence_mwi \ presence_dialoginfo pua pua_bla pua_mi pua_usrloc \ 
pua_xmpp pua_dialoginfo ldap h350 identity regex memcached \ db_http json python dialplan

 it should look something like this,

exclude_modules?= osp db_oracle \

#exclude_modules?= b2b_logic jabber cpl-c xmpp rls \
#mi_xmlrpc xcap_client db_mysql db_postgres db_unixodbc \
#db_oracle db_berkeley aaa_radius osp perl snmpstats \
#perlvdb carrierroute mmgeoip presence presence_xml\ 
#presence_mwi presence_dialoginfo pua pua_bla pua_mi \ 
#pua_usrloc pua_xmpp pua_dialoginfo ldap h350 identity \
#regex memcached db_http json python dialplan

I've excludede modules for osp and oracle db , as we don;t need those.

save and exit.
Now compile and install OpenSIPS

root@Osips-SBC# make all 
root@Osips-SBC# make install 


Copy default and the int.d startup scripts to relevant directories.
root@Osips-SBC# cd packaging/debian
root@Osips-SBC# cp opensips.default /etc/default/opensips

Edit the default file:
root@Osips-SBC# vim /etc/default/opensips
SET:
RUN_OPENSIPS=yes
Save and Exit

root@Osips-SBC# cp opensips.init /etc/init.d/opensips
Verify the binary directory of opensips package
root@Osips-SBC# ls /usr/local/sbin/opensips

should show you this output
/usr/local/sbin/opensips

Edit /etc/init.d/opensips to know the path of the opensips executable binary

root@Osips-SBC# vim /etc/init.d/opensips

SET:
DAEMON=/usr/local/sbin/opensips

Create opensips user
root@Osips-SBC# useradd -d /etc/opensips -s /sbin/nologin opensips

SCTP module is required to be loaded in kernel before starting opensips, since e compiled opensips with SCTP support.

root@Osips-SBC# modprobe sctp


START opensips

root@Osips-SBC# /etc/init.d/opensips start
if you get this error:

 grep: /etc/opensips/opensips.cfg: No such file or directory
Starting opensips: opensips already running.

 Execute the following command.( but first do check with "/var/log/syslog" what is your error.I got error on different configurations directory so I created an symbolic link.)

root@Osips-SBC# ln -s /usr/local/etc/opensips /etc/



Create Database for opensips






root@Osips-SBC# cd /usr/local/etc/opensips 


root@Osips-SBC# vim opensipsctlrc

Uncomment

DBENGINE=MYSQL



Save and Exit

root@Osips-SBC# opensipsdbctl create

The "." here signifies that opensips has actually started. If you see anything else like "opensips has started" or "opensips is already running" then see log file for errors.



Verify that opensips is running

Thats all, you've successfully installed OpenSIPS. Now I'll try to upload some configurations sample file for load-balancing multiple Media-Servers(Asterisks/FreeSWITCH) servers using OpenSIPS.

    I really hope that youdidn't miss this step:

    root@Osips-SBC# vim opensipsctlrc
    Uncomment
    DBENGINE=MYSQL
    save and exit

    Make sure you've mysql-client and server installed 

    If you've already done this, then are you installing opensips 1.8 !?

      Hey there,
      I think a few lines from log will help me find the issue for you. I'd say you should try to start opensips with the init.d script rather opensipsctl command.

      #/etc/init.d/opensips start

      if you don't see the "." appearing after the above command then you definitely need to see the log file for errors.

      #tailf -n 60 /var/log/syslog  [Ubuntu]
      #tailf -n 60 /var/log/messages  [CentOS]

      that'll show you last 60 lines in the standard log file.

      Thats your problem. Let me share whats in my mind.

      1- You forgot to load the sctp module i,e #modprobe sctp
      2- You din't install the sctp library and compile opensips with sctp.
      3- The possibility for this is that you followed multiple tutorials on installing opensips and probably mixed everything up and somehow forgot few steps from each.

      I'd alsorequest to reply back if your problems get solved here, this will help any other readers looking for same issues. Thanks.

      1- Make sure you have the line 'modparam("mi_fifo", "fifo_name", "/tmp/opensips_fifo")' in your config file (opensips.cfg)

      2- Edit the opensipsctlrc file located in the same directory as of opensips.cfg and make sure it's FIFO path is uncommented and is same as 1.

      then run the command and it should work.

      Instead of ``` make install ```, you might want to try ``` make install include_modules="db_mysql" ```.

      Gregory, that too is one way of installing a module in opensips but, The issue he is talking about is that when executing the script "opensipcdbctl create" the DB schema is not found.

      The solution would be to manually locate the missing .mysql file in sources directory and place it to a location where the script is searching for.

      @Sammy Go.   Gregory A. Lussier is right . it worked for me. 
      your method worked too , but in my case there's another problem to fix related to mysql script
      Thanks

    hi, Recently installed opensips sever which running smoothly on TCP connections, but users cannot register on UDP connections

    here my Log, have a look.

    --------

    from this I could understand that opensips pre-deamon is exiting with 0, means all modules initialized successfully and have no error ! 

    when i start opensips
    -------------------
    root #/etc/init.d/opensips start

    Starting opensips: Listening on

             udp: 192.168.xxx.xx [192.168.xxx.xxx]:5060

             tcp: 192.168.xxx.xxx [192.168.xxx.xxx]:5060

    Aliases:


    ---------------
    from this i could understand opensips running properly and also listening to both TCP and UDP. but I can't figure out this weird problem, why users could not register on UDP. Any helpful mind will be appreciated ... !!

      check with firewall and your local ports being blocked by ISP probably  ??

      Although I believe the error is someplace else and possible above this error in the log file, but what do you think if it can't create a file there what could be the causes?

      1- The directory doesn't exist ?  /var/run/opensips/
      2- The permissions aren't set ?

    Hey, You need to see what error your OpenSIPS is printing in the syslog/messages log file. That's why it is failing to start up.

    Hi Gohar,

    I have already setup OpenSIPS on Ubuntu 12.04. Everything looks good so far since the opensips control panel is accessible. I am able to add a domain and users with no issues and they all show up on the actual database in the server. 

    Currently I am running into issues using Zoiper and 3CX apps to add users to make some test calls. Looks to be like a communication issue. I turned off firewalls and such.

    What i noticed in my setup when starting opensips with /etc/init.d/opensips start, it shows as "already running" and when I do /etc/init.d/opensips status, it says that it is not running.

    My logs don't really show much either. 

    Any input would be greatly appreciated and thank you very much for your help!

    Hi Gohar Ahmed,

    I install opensip1.11 and mysql 5.5(server/client) everything work fine but when i try to create database for opensips like your step. I can't find the directory

     "" root@asterisk11:~# cd /usr/local/etc/
    root@asterisk11:/usr/local/etc# ls 
    root@asterisk11:/usr/local/etc# ls -l
    total 0
    root@asterisk11:/usr/local/etc# ""

    it appear that not have "opensips and opensipsctlrc"  in this directory.

    Did i miss some step or done somethings wrong?
    Please help me Sir.
