[OpenSIPS-Users] unable to start opensips due to FIFO

[Deon Vermeulen]

I am also getting this output when checking the opensips.cfg file.

Sep 15 15:55:29 [3090] NOTICE:core:main: config file ok, exiting...


I am not sure if any of the above info will help.

I also see a "CRITICAL:core:yylex: cfg. parser: unexpected EOF: 2  
comments open" and can't find the problem in the configuration file.

Thanks for the help.

Appreciated.
