[OpenSER-Users] Problem with asterisk authenticating on invite

[Stagg Shelton]

I am using proxy_authorize & proxy_challenge on the invite.

         if (!(method=="REGISTER"))
         {
           if (!allow_trusted())
           {
               if (!proxy_authorize("", "subscriber")) {
                 $var(debug) = proxy_authorize("", "subscriber");
                 xlog("Not Proxy Authorize: $var(debug)");
                       proxy_challenge("", "0");
                       exit;
               }
               if (!check_from()) {
                       sl_send_reply("403","Forbidden auth ID");
                       exit;
               }

               consume_credentials();
               # caller authenticated
           }
         }


Below is the output I see in the log file when this path is executed.

Jun 30 10:10:47 rolecall /sbin/openser[15625]: Not Proxy Authorize: -4
Jun 30 10:10:47 rolecall /sbin/openser[15629]: Not Proxy Authorize: -5
Jun 30 10:10:47 rolecall /sbin/openser[15625]: Not Proxy Authorize: -5
Jun 30 10:10:47 rolecall /sbin/openser[15627]: Not Proxy Authorize: -5

As you can see on the initial invite the credentials are not found  
which is to be expected.  But on the subsequent invites OpenSER is  
returning the generic error which doesn't tell me a whole lot.  Can  
you tell me how to obtain more verbose debugging.

Is it possible that OpenSER is using the From tag and not the  
credentials supplied in the Proxy-Authorization header?

Thank You
