Hi, Well, with one of my colleagues, we did some research and test, but we don’t find where the privilege issue is with the /var/ FS. If the fifo filename is "/var/run/kamailio/kamailio_rpc_fifo" or "/var/run/kamailio_rpc_fifo", we have this privilege issue. I thought that the following declaration would prevent this security issue : modparam("jsonrpcs", "fifo_name", DEFINE_FIFO_NAME) modparam("jsonrpcs", "fifo_mode", 0755) modparam("jsonrpcs", "fifo_group", "kamailio") modparam("jsonrpcs", "fifo_user", "kamailio") but it is not the case. For the moment only the fifo filename “/tmp/kamailio_rpc_fifo" is valid for kamailio to start.

I thought that the following declaration would prevent this security issue : modparam("jsonrpcs", "fifo_name", DEFINE_FIFO_NAME) modparam("jsonrpcs", "fifo_mode", 0755) modparam("jsonrpcs", "fifo_group", "kamailio") modparam("jsonrpcs", "fifo_user", "kamailio") but it is not the case. For the moment only the fifo filename “/tmp/kamailio_rpc_fifo" is valid for kamailio to start.

All went fine after disabling selinux. It was on a centos. I am not saying it is the same, but it could, so try without centos to see if the issue persists.

Hi, Nothing happens after the ‘service kamailio stop’; kamailio is still running (same pid) ((as detaillled below).

Hi, The killproc command doesn’t exist : [root@vm-vse02-siprouter2 ~]# killproc -h -bash: killproc: command not found To help the debug, I added ‘echo’ command at the case statement in the /etc/init.d/Kamailio script : # See how we were called. case "$1" in start|debug) echo "GINHOUX Start" start ;; stop) echo "GINHOUX" stop ;; status) status $KAM RETVAL=$? ;; restart) stop start ;; condrestart) if [ -f $PID_FILE ] ; then stop start fi ;; *) echo "PATRICK 2" echo $"Usage: $PROG {start|stop|restart|condrestart|status|debug|help}" exit 1 esac The results of the different action are : - service kamailio stop èNothing is displayed - service kamailio start èNothing is displayed - service kamailio XXX è“PATRICK 2” is displayed [root@vm-vse02-siprouter2 ~]# [root@vm-vse02-siprouter2 ~]# service kamailio stop Stopping kamailio (via systemctl): Warning: Unit file of kamailio.service changed on disk, 'systemctl daemon-reload' recommended.

Job for kamailio.service failed. See 'systemctl status kamailio.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details. [FAILED] [root@vm-vse02-siprouter2 ~]# service kamailio XXX PATRICK 2 Usage: kamailio {start|stop|restart|condrestart|status|debug|help} It seems that when ‘stop|start’ are used, linux doesn’t run the /etc/init.d/kamailio script. As you can see that it is complaining about the ‘systemctl daemon-reload’ command to use. I proceeded the same (add ‘echo’ command) on another server running the previous Kamailio rpm. On this server there are no display (from the ‘echo’ command) but kamailio stops: [root@vm-vse02-siprouter1 ~]# ps -ef |grep kam kamailio 1159 1 0 16:35 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1161 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1162 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1163 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1164 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1165 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1166 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1167 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1168 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1169 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1170 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1171 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1172 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio kamailio 1173 1159 0 16:36 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/kamailio -P /var/run/kamailio.pid -m 1024 -M 8 -u kamailio -g kamailio root 1210 1189 0 16:36 pts/0 00:00:00 tail -f /var/log/kamailio/kamailio.log root 1242 1220 0 16:45 pts/1 00:00:00 grep --color=auto kam [root@vm-vse02-siprouter1 ~]# service kamailio stop Stopping kamailio (via systemctl): [ OK ] [root@vm-vse02-siprouter1 ~]# ps -ef |grep kam root 1210 1189 0 16:36 pts/0 00:00:00 tail -f /var/log/kamailio/kamailio.log root 1273 1220 0 16:46 pts/1 00:00:00 grep --color=auto kam [root@vm-vse02-siprouter1 ~]# [root@vm-vse02-siprouter1 ~]# rpm -qa |grep kam kamailio-5.0.0-7.1.x86_64 it really strange.

Hi, I’m going to install the kamailio 5.0.1 . One question before: Can you tell me if it included the patch for the htable (issue “ht_db_load_table(): key type must be string (type=6)”) ?

Can you install the rpms for kamailio 5.0.1? They are already built: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:kamailio:v5.0.x-rpms/kamailio50 I tried to force the pid file path to killproc, but maybe the version is not supporting it. You may need to do 'killall kamailio' first time to stop existing kamailio, then do start and stop after installing the new packages. If it fails, I will look for a different solution and trigger rpms to be rebuilt. Cheers, Daniel

Hi, Kamailio 5.0.1 is now installed, The start and then the stop command works fine now. Kamailio is correctly stopped. I also tested a reboot, and saw kamailio started with success. A new attempt to stop it is also successful. So I can tell that this issue is closed; the fifo file are created as appropriate: [root@vm-vse02-siprouter2 ~]# ll /var/run/kamailio/ total 4 srw------- 1 kamailio kamailio 0 Apr 5 17:57 kamailio_ctl -rw-r----- 1 kamailio kamailio 5 Apr 5 17:57 kamailio.pid prwxr-xr-x 1 kamailio kamailio 0 Apr 5 17:57 kamailio_rpc_fifo About the htable fix, it is included in the 5.0.1 as I don’t get the string error anymore. That’s really a great job you did. Thanks you so much.
