[SR-Users] Issue with Socket selection on Forwarding ACK message

Thank you for you answer.

We have tried to change the local port for Bob, but it doesnt change 
anything. And the contact value in 200 OK message has no influence in 
this case.

In fact, we have made a further investigation regarding the socket 
selection *and read the code. *The issue seems to be located in the RR 
module and the loose_route() function.

In the  after_loose() function in loose.c, the  function 
set_force_socket()  is called only if a DOUBLE route is mentioned in the 
route set of the ACK message

But when both users are using 5066 as proxy port, we get only ONE route 
for the proxy in the route set (and to us it is OK). In this case, we 
get a trace:

"No next URI found"

and the code exits. Later in the message processing, when t_relay() is 
called, the forward_request() selects the first socket defined in our 
configuration instead.

At this point, we can't presume what socket we be select. We believe 
that it is a software bug  and that after_loose() should force the 
send_socket even though we have only one route in the route set. We also 
checked the 5.1 code and there is no change in this module that would 
alter this behavior.

Are we missing something?

Thank you for you time,

Thomas
