[Users] Setting t_relay() timeout in lcr

[Douglas Garstang]

Yes. I have read sections 1.3.17 and 1.3.18 of the module documentation for lcr.
That's why I made the post.
 
Section 1.3.17 says:
'Sets the value of the fist INVITE's Final Response timeout to be used during sequential forwarding:"
 
Section 1.3.18 says:
"Sets the value of the next INVITE's Final Response timeouts to be used during sequential fowarding:"
 
So, I went and set:
modparam("lcr","fr_inv_timer",2)
modparam("lcr","fr_inv_timer_next",2)
 
and it had no effect on the timeout that t_relay() used. 
However, when I set:
modparam("tm", "fr_timer", 1)
 
it _DID_ have an effect in the timeout that t_relay() used.
 
I _have_ experimed with the variables and functions WAY more than I would have if the documentation was complete. Experimenting with the functions showed me that t_relay() is always returning 0, even when there is a failure.
 
My question therefore stands. Why does setting fr_inv_timer and fr_inv_timer_next have no effect? What is the relationship between the settings in the tm module and the lcr module? Why are there two settings? Which should I use? Why does t_relay() always return 0 even on failure? I could be doing things completely wrong, as there is a lack of good examples accompanying the documentation, and it's easy to see the documentation was written by the same people who wrote the code - there's an assumed level of knowledge when reading it that most people don't have.
 
Douglas.

	before you sent this message, have you checked sections 1.3.17 and
	1.3.18 of lcr README file? 
	
	you should read all existing documentation, experiment with the
	variables and the functions and if you after that still have problems,
	you post your message to the list.
