Hey Gnaneshwar,

sorry for not replying for such a long time. Real life has been keeping me busy. :)

Without knowing too much about pua_dialoginfo, I can tell from your logs that no dialog termination was observed, therefore no "terminated" state was published. Are you possibly not running completely stateful dialogs, e.g., replying statelessly to INVITE requests? The dialog module cannot handle such cases yet, you need to be stateful all the times.


Cheers,

This is why a lifetime of zero is always available to callback functions, including the one from pua_dialoginfo, no matter what the configured lifetime is.

It's attached in this email -- would you mind giving it a try and see if it helps? In order to apply the patch, all you need to do is check out the 3.1 branch (unless you already did so) doing
