[OpenSIPS-Users] siptrace missing inbound requests from caller

[John Quick]

Hi Vlad,

Thanks for the quick response. Your suggestion worked - I just had to change
the order of setting the trace flag and calling sip_trace().

I tried to use trace_dialog() when I first started looking at the siptrace
module and had some problems. Today I tried it again and it worked fine and
requires much less code so is the best solution.

The documentation does not make it clear how the config options, flags and
functions of the siptrace module interact - I had to experiment to find out,
but it is all working well for me now.

Hello,

You must have the trace_flag set in the message before calling the 
sip_trace() function. Please change the order of sip_trace() and 
setflag(8) and see if that works for you.

Also, you might want to check out the trace_dialog() function exported 
by the siptrace module, if that  dlg_flag's only purpose in your script 
is to remember to do the tracing.
