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?
Thanks, Uri
Hello,
even if you create it, it is not going to work, because the file descriptor in kamailio points to a different address, the solution is to restart kamailio.
Perhaps the -v has to be replaced with something else, it seems to be a common issue.
Cheers, Daniel

What about changing Kamailio to first check if the FIFO already exists, and if yes, if it is used by another process (like the 'fuser' utility). If another process already uses the FIFO, Kamailio should exit without touching the FIFO.

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 ......

thanks, hope to try it soon.
