Hi Daniel, Thanks for the pointers. In your reply you have mentioned the following .... The user location information is stored in memory and duplicated to database for a possible hot restart of SER. Did you restart the SER after you registered the users and before trying to call?

I am confused ... Should i restart SER after registering each user ?

Of course NOT!!! I just asked to see if the database was really involved into user location processing. Let me explain again, when a user registers all the contact information is stored into memory from where ser takes it for any further processing. Also, it is stored into table location of the database __only if you choose__ so in your config file -- by setting db_mode parameter of usrloc module to the value 1 or 2. This duplication, to database, helps when you, for some reasons -- let's say you have changed something in the config file, need to restart ser. In that moment, ser reloads all information about registered users prior the restart moment from database, so those users don't need to re-register. Again, you don't need to restart ser unless you modified the config file.

Why I asked if you had restarted ser ... because in this case the users contact information would have been loaded from database and if dbtext wasn't working properly then some data might be damaged and some users were not able to be contacted.

If you still have some doubts, let me know.

Best regards, }Daniel

So far i have not restarted SER after regisration. After registering user's i have only tried to invite a user for a conversation. Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks, Annie
