Re: [Serusers] CDR and Syslog

Hi Can you please elaborate a bit on this? Does it mean i need to compile my acc module with mysql ie acc_mysql just like acc_syslog???? Also, when I try using the syslog.... as per the instructions in the article : http://openser.org/dokuwiki/doku.php/tutorials:debug-syslog-messages it says i need to add this line: # log messages with LOG_LOCAL0 in /var/log/ser.log local0.* -/var/log/ser.log ... to the syslog.conf file placed in /etc/syslog.conf But, when i insert that line, error is displayed, about not being supported... Dont know what all issue is it about... Can anyone help?

Jai, Thanks for showing a pointer towards teh acc module... but i really cudn't grasp even a bit out of it... all it says is about logs being dumped, with specific data like \: The fixed minimal accouting information is: Request Method name To header TAG parameter Call-Id 3-digit Status code from final reply Reason phrase from final reply Time stamp when transaction was completed There is no session/dialog accounting (yet)-- OpenSER maintains no sessions. If one needs to correlate INVITEs with BYEs for generating proper CDRs for example for purpose of billing, then it is better done in the entity which collects accounting information. If a UA fails in middle of conversation, a proxy will never learn it. In general, a better practice is to account from an end-device (such as PSTN gateway), which best knows about call status (including media status and PSTN status in case of the gateway). Now, my requirement is to generate a CDR for billing purpose... In syslog there are not any logs present, and even if i get the logs there.. using changes in config file, how do i use this raw information to generated CDRz for billing purposes??? I have searched for quite a few tools online which work on the output of SER to generate CDR or for CDR collection... but I need a free software, they are all paid services... Can someone help me where should i go further..? I'm lost ... :( Thanks a lot! Parminder Nayyar acc module write call records to Mysql Invite, ack , bye with this you can generate CDR wrting small scripts, or install serweb to check that records. ram _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users(a)openser.org http://openser.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/users
