Hi,
I entered the command "kamailio -v" instead of "kamailio -V".
It looks like it starts kamailio again even that it was running....
the problem is that the kamctl_fifo and kamctl_ctl file are gone now. how do i create the files again without restarting kamailio?

You can not create it (At least I don ot know a workaround).

If you need to access the FIFO you can use the /proc directory to get the file descriptor until Kamailio is restarted.

eg:

1. get the PID of Kamailio and the FD of the FIFO:

# lsof|grep kamailio_fifo
kamailio   6505   kamailio    6r     FIFO      202,2      0t0 131110 /tmp/kamailio_fifo (deleted)
kamailio   6505   kamailio   10w     FIFO      202,2      0t0 131110 /tmp/kamailio_fifo (deleted)

2. use FD 6 or 10 of Kamailio's FDs
OSER_FIFO=/proc/6505/fd/6 kamctl ......
