[Serusers] *bangs head* Struggling with simple SER+SEMS..

[Dave Bath]

Hey guys.... 

I'm really struggling with this.  It was working perfectly yesterday and now I must have made a small change and I just cannot find what I've done wrong.

Bascially, this is a very very simple unauthenticated SER front end to SEMS... all I want to be able to do is use the conference facilities.  Incidentally, when I say unauthenticated I mean also without registering... so all a user has to do is send an INVITE.  To that end, I am trying to just redirect sip URI's beginning with 600.  It seems that the initial redirect goes through... but then something screwy is happening because SER never appears to receive the ACKs correctly.. and it starts sending two sets of 200 messages.. one with no SDP descriptor and then a second batch with a valid SDP descriptor.  Because of this weirdness with the ACKs, the client and SER fight for a while sending out millions of repeat 200s and ACKs.  Meanwhile, because the initial redirect to SEMS worked, the conference has actually been created...

The same story with BYE.. the client sends it, but SER doesn't even appear to receive it (note all the debugging log lines).   In fact, there' something rather dodgy up, because I don't even get the debug lines inside the route[1] block.... 

It sort of points to me that perhaps I've done something very stupid with the transactions.. that for some reason they don't match up ... but I can't find it.  Attached is my ser.cfg.  Any help would be so very much appreciated.

I don't think it's a basic connectivity problem, because as I said, a very similar file was working perfectly yesterday... I've just stupidly changed it slightly somewhere.

Many many thanks in advance.

Dave
