Chapter 1. Admin Guide

1.1. Overview

This is a module which provides MySQL connectivity for OpenSIPS. It implements the DB API defined in OpenSIPS.

1.2. Dependencies

1.2.1. OpenSIPS Modules

The following modules must be loaded before this module:

If a use_tls is defined, the tls_mgm module will need to be loaded as well.

1.2.2. External Libraries or Applications

The following libraries or applications must be installed before running OpenSIPS with this module loaded:

libmysqlclient-dev - the development libraries of mysql-client.

1.3. Exported Parameters

1.3.1. `exec_query_threshold` (integer)

If queries take longer than 'exec_query_threshold' microseconds, warning messages will be written to logging facility.

Default value is 0 - disabled.

Example 1.1. Set exec_query_threshold parameter

...
modparam("db_mysql", "exec_query_threshold", 60000)
...

1.3.2. `timeout_interval` (integer)

Time interval after which a connection attempt (read or write request) is aborted. The value counts three times, as several retries are done from the driver before it gives up.

The read timeout parameter is ignored on driver versions prior to “5.1.12”, “5.0.25” and “4.1.22”. The write timeout parameter is ignored on version prior to “5.1.12” and “5.0.25”, the “4.1” release don't support it at all.

Default value is 2 (6 sec).

Example 1.2. Set timeout_interval parameter

...
modparam("db_mysql", "timeout_interval", 2)
...

1.3.3. `max_db_queries` (integer)

The maximum number of retries to execute a failed query due to connections problems. If this parameter is set improperly, it is set to default value.

Default value is 2.

Example 1.3. Set max_db_queries parameter

...
modparam("db_mysql", "max_db_queries", 2)
...

1.3.4. `max_db_retries` (integer)

The maximum number of database connection retries. If this parameter is set improperly, it is set to default value.

Default value is 3.

Example 1.4. Set max_db_retries parameter

...
modparam("db_mysql", "max_db_retries", 2)
...

1.3.5. `use_tls` (integer)

Setting this parameter will allow you to use TLS for MySQL connections. In order to enable TLS for a specific connection, you can use the "tls_domain=dom_name" URL parameter in the db_url of the respective OpenSIPS module. This should be placed at the end of the URL after the '?' character.

When using this parameter, you must also ensure that tls_mgm is loaded and properly configured. Refer to the the module for additional info regarding TLS client domains.

Note that if you want to use this feature, the TLS domain must be provisioned in the configuration file, NOT in the database. In case you are loading TLS certificates from the database, you must at least define one domain in the configuration script, to use for the initial connection to the DB.

Also, you can NOT enable TLS for the connection to the database of the tls_mgm module itself.

Default value is 0 (not enabled)

Example 1.5. Set the use_tls parameter

...
modparam("tls_mgm", "client_domain", "dom1")
modparam("tls_mgm", "certificate", "[dom1]/etc/pki/tls/certs/opensips.pem")
modparam("tls_mgm", "private_key", "[dom1]/etc/pki/tls/private/opensips.key")
modparam("tls_mgm", "ca_list",     "[dom1]/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca.pem")
...
modparam("db_mysql", "use_tls", 1)
...
modparam("usrloc", "db_url", "mysql://root:1234@localhost/opensips?tls_domain=dom1")
...

1.4. Exported Functions

No function exported to be used from configuration file.

1.5. Installation

Because it dependes on an external library, the mysql module is not compiled and installed by default. You can use one of the next options.

- edit the "Makefile" and remove "db_mysql" from "excluded_modules" list. Then follow the standard procedure to install OpenSIPS: "make all; make install".
- from command line use: 'make all include_modules="db_mysql"; make install include_modules="db_mysql"'.

1.6. Exported Events

1.6.1. `E_MYSQL_CONNECTION`

This event is raised when a MySQL connection is lost or recovered.

Parameters:

url - the URL of the connection as specified by the db_url parameter.
status - connected if the connection recovered, or disconnected if the connection was lost.
