CRITICAL: dialog [dlg_timer.c:205]: Trying to update a bogus dlg - Kamailio 3.3.x - sr-users

Hi list,

I'm having some issues with dialog module. From time to time I get the
following error:

ERROR: dialog [dlg_req_within.c:231]: failed to update dialog lifetime
CRITICAL: dialog [dlg_timer.c:205]: Trying to update a bogus dlg

where pid 4100 is slow timer and pid 4102 is timer. Any idea why is this
happening and how to fix it.
(I suspect that may be some issues with our server memory...checking
now...and will inform). However wanted to raise this issue in case anyone
else is having the same.

Thanks, Rinor
