[SR-Users] Unable to establish TCP connection with Kamailio

Hello,

I'm running Kamailio Version 5.3.2 on Ubuntu 20.04. Here my build information:

When I start Kamailio, I see the following in the output to stderr:

Listening on
             udp: 172.16.0.57:5060
             tcp: 172.16.0.57:5060
Aliases:
             tcp: VRTPENGINE:5060
             udp: VRTPENGINE:5060

WARNING: no fork mode
 0(6299) INFO: <core> [core/tcp_main.c:5042]: init_tcp(): using epoll_lt as the io watch method (auto detected)

Here's the problem:

When I connect via UDP, everything works fine. I can connect and see all SIP traffic.

However, if I try to connect via TCP, I see the initial SYN packet in attempting to establish a connection.

Kamailio responds with an [RST,ACK] message and the TCP connection is never established. No further TCP traffic is sent.

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
