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

[Deon Vermeulen]

I forgot to add the opensipsctlrc file configuration:

## control engine: FIFO or UNIXSOCK
## - default FIFO
# CTLENGINE=xmlrpc

## path to FIFO file
  OSIPS_FIFO="/tmp/opensips_fifo"

## MI_CONNECTOR control engine: FIFO, UNIXSOCK, UDP, XMLRPC
  MI_CONNECTOR=FIFO:/tmp/opensips_fifo
# MI_CONNECTOR=UNIXSOCK:/tmp/opensips.sock
# MI_CONNECTOR=UDP:192.168.2.133:8000
# MI_CONNECTOR=XMLRPC:127.0.0.1:32860


Thanks for the help.

regards
Deon
