Re: [SR-Users] best way to start kamailio at boot

wrote:

Hello, when you run just 'kamailio', the first executable found in path is executed (this is returned by command 'which kamailio'). When you execute with absolute path /etc/init.d/kamailio, then that specific file is executed. 'which kamailio' returns very likely the kamailio binary (/usr/local/sbin/kamailio if you installed from sources), which is the pure kamailio with no command line parameters. The /etc/init.d/kamailio is a script, wrapper around the pure kamailio binary, giving to it some command line parameters. If you do 'ps auxw | grep kamailio' you should see the difference of running command.
