Stumped by mod_portaudio permissions issue
by Mark Haun 02 Feb '20

02 Feb '20

I built freeswitch version 1.7.0+git~20150730T192909Z~ab7f83c654~32bit for my ARM-based home server (an NVIDIA Jetson board), with the intention of using mod_portaudio with a wireless USB headset for my main home phone. It works well when running freeswitch directly as root, but when I configured freeswitch to run at system startup, mod_portaudio could no longer find any audio devices. No problem, I thought, it's a simple permissions issue. I am using the example debian init script from the wiki (this is a Jessie install with SysV init rather than systemd). It runs freeswitch as user freeswitch, group daemon using the -u and -g command-line options. So I added "freeswitch" to the audio group, then used sudo to verify that I could play sound files with "aplay" as the freeswitch user. That worked, but it did not solve the mod_portaudio failure. Thinking there must be an issue with portaudio separate from ALSA, I fetched and built the "pa_devs" utility which enumerates and prints the available audio devices. (This is basically what mod_portaudio is doing on startup.) Running as the freeswitch user, that worked too. Hmmmm. I tried running freeswitch from the command line using sudo rather than the -u and -g options, i.e. $ sudo freeswitch /usr/local/freeswitch/bin/freeswitch -nc and that worked as well! Then I started experimenting with -u and -g and discovered that $ /usr/local/freeswitch/bin/freeswitch -nc -u freeswitch allows mod_portaudio to load correctly, whereas $ /usr/local/freeswitch/bin/freeswitch -nc -u freeswitch -g daemon causes mod_portaudio to fail. Can anyone explain what's happening here? In both cases the process UID, GID, EUID, EGID, FUID, and FGID are the same (freeswitch:daemon) as displayed with "ps xao pid,uid,gid,euid,egid,fuid,fgid". Could this be a bug in freeswitch? There are a couple of threads from 2-3 years ago in the archives, where mod_portaudio permissions issues were never resolved and the solution remained a mystery. For the time being I guess this (not using -g) is a workaround, but I'd sure like to understand what is going on. Mark

HI, Has anyone experienced DTLS handshake takes 5s to get to SETUP state: > 2017-09-21 11:40:40.021178 [INFO] switch_rtp.c:3515 Changing audio DTLS > state from OFF to HANDSHAKE > 2017-09-21 11:40:45.319457 [INFO] switch_rtp.c:3172 Changing audio DTLS > state from HANDSHAKE to SETUP In network dump i see that answering side is not sending STUN for this 5s and then suddenly answers last 5 STUNs from A side. Has anyone encountered this kind of problem ? I have a pcap if necessary... Thanks, -- Regards, Mirko

Change SIP Contact header on b-leg
by Кирилл Преслер 22 Feb '19

22 Feb '19

Provider not accepting calls because of "bad" Contact header sip:gw+ss@10.50.244.15:5060;transport=udp;gw=ss ITSP needs sip:username@10.50.244.15:5060, where username should be passed from dialplan for every call and there is no params. I've tried following variables with set and export, but nothing seems to work. sip_contact_user sip_outgoing_contact_uri sip_invite_contact_params

DTMF negotiation
by kaiduan xie 04 Feb '19

04 Feb '19

Hi, We are encountering the following DTMF issue, FreeSwitch adds telephone-event support in INVITE to SBC, SBC replies back without telephone-event support in 200. However FreeSwitch still sends out DTMF in RFC 2833 event. I think FreeSwitch should send out DTMF inband instead of 2833 event, what is the configuration for this? Many thanks for help, /Kaiduan

Sofia stops responding after a few days
by Bipin Patel 01 Feb '19

01 Feb '19

hi, I have 2 instances of FS running on a single windows box, first instance uses normal sip UDP profiles mainly used for routing calls to carriers and its running as a service since a few months without any issues. The second instance runs a sip TLS profile and accepts inbound registrations and forwards calls in sip UDP ahead, it uses xml_curl for directory users but the problem is every 2-3 days the inbound TLS profile stops responding to registrations, and when that happens i cant even stop and restart the service, have to kill it and start again. FS_CLI works but doesnt show any error, at first i though it could be the xml_curl causing the issue but later realized it never sends any requests when sofia stops responding. i have been banging my head from the past week or so but not able to find the cause, could any1 help in guiding me what to check when this happens so can find the root cause, im using commercial certs for TLS and when its running there r no issues other than sofia stops responding every few days, it happens at random times. -- Regards, Bipin ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Audio delayed for about 3sec.
by 王聡 20 Dec '18

Hey all, Today I moved my freeswitch server from VM to cloud server, but I found there has an audio delay on both caller and receiver for about 3sec in each call during call test. Is there any idea for this audio delay? Regards.

Influencing "Update Callee ID" behavior
by Thilo-Alexander Ginkel 19 Jul '18

19 Jul '18

Hello everyone, when placing an external outbound call via mod_sofia I am seeing the callee's number and name being updated as soon as the called party picks up the call: 2017-12-08 10:19:24.933767 [INFO] sofia.c:1279 sofia/external/040xxx Update Callee ID to "Outbound Call" <40xxx> This seems to override what has been previously set as sip_callee_id_name (e.g., using <action application="set" data="sip_callee_id_name=${db(select/cid/${2})}"/>). There are two problems that I'd like to solve: 1. When sip_callee_id_name was previously set (e.g., via DB lookup) I'd like to keep that value (or repeat the lookup) so that the callee's name remains intact. 2. Certain destinations incorrectly strip the loeading zero from the callee's number, which I'd like to avoid displaying as is. Is there any way to influence what is displayed as name and number, i.e. keep the previously set sip_callee_id_name and apply some kind of normalization to the reported number to cope with the missing leading zero? Thanks, Thilo

Is there an expected date when Freeswitch 1.8/Debian 9 will become the preferred production configuration?

Re: [Freeswitch-users] stream a file multicast with mod_esf
by Sluschny, Thomas 10 May '18

Hi Brian, i thought if i can stream from portaudio it is almost the same with streaming from file, so it should working already now. Is this not the design idea of channels and media to do so? regards, thomas PS: sry for improper formatted mail, i cant reply at the moment and have to copy mail from archive :( ________________________________ >From brian at freeswitch.org Thu Feb 12 07:07:36 2009 From: brian at freeswitch.org (Brian West) Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2009 09:07:36 -0600 Subject: [Freeswitch-users] stream a file multicast with mod_esf Message-ID: <6F68FEDB-8976-44D4-9A67-F871EC7D5120(a)freeswitch.org <mailto:6F68FEDB-8976-44D4-9A67-F871EC7D5120@freeswitch.org> > esf is for multi cast paging... it currently won't let you play files... we would have to create a multicast playback application. /b On Feb 12, 2009, at 8:00 AM, Sluschny, Thomas wrote: > Hi, > > i want to stream a file per IP multicast with mod_esf. > > I can stream IP multicast with: > pa call stream XML > and in XML dialplan: > <extension name="stream"> > <condition field="destination_number" expression="^stream$"> > <action application="answer"/> > <action application="esf_page_group" data="224.168.168.168 34567"/> > <action application="esf_page_group" data=""/> > </condition> > </extension> > and i can also play files with 'playback' app, > > BUT: how can put these 2 things together? > > May be its trivial, but i cant get it make working with 'originate' > or 'uuid_broadcast' or 'bridge', 'transfer' and so on ... > > Thanks in advance, > Thomas
