http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Opensips+Installation,+How+to.

First i have to say, i am sorry for my bad english, but was really hard to find out a good tutorial for opensips installation, so i made this one and i want to share with the next people who will need this. i just got 3 or 4 days to make my first installation of opensips, and now with this tutorial, i can finish in about 15 minutes. =)

Starting:

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

apt-get install build-essential openssl bison flex

apt-get install mysql-server libmysqlclient15off libmysqlclient-dev

Remember to create your sql root password

Now download the last version of opensips in the following site http://opensips.org/

cd /usr/src

wget http://opensips.org/pub/opensips/latest/src/opensips-1.4.4-tls_src.tar.gz #opensips-1.4.4-tls_src.tar.gz (atual version: 11/03/2009)

tar xvzf opensips-1.4.4-tls_src.tar.gz

cd opensips-1.4.4-tls

Compile the Opensips

we will compile Opensips with all available modules:

make all include_modules="db_mysql" modules

make install include_modules="db_mysql" modules

Now copy the files from the extracted directory to the followings:

cp /usr/src/opensips-1.4.4-tls/packaging/debian-etch/opensips.default /etc/default/opensips

cp /usr/src/opensips-1.4.4-tls/packaging/debian-etch/opensips.init /etc/init.d/opensips

Make the following changes in the files /etc/default/opensips:

vim /etc/default/opensips

RUN_OPENSIPS=yes

User to run as

USER=opensips

Group to run as

GROUP=opensips

Amount of memory to allocate for the running OpenSIPS server (in Mb)

MEMORY=128

Change also the file /etc/init.d/opensips:

vim /etc/init.d/opensips

Replace the line DAEMON=/usr/sbin/opensips to:

DAEMON=/usr/local/sbin/opensips

Give execution permission to the file:

chmod +x /etc/init.d/opensips

create the opensips user:

adduser opensips

Now create the dir:

mkdir /var/run/opensips

Configuring the Opensips:

We must change the file in /usr/local/etc/opensips/opensipsctlrc

vim /usr/local/etc/opensips/opensipsctlrc

And make the following change:

SIP_DOMAIN=localhost

DBENGINE=MYSQL

DBHOST=localhost

DBNAME=opensips

DBRWUSER=opensips

DBRWPW="opensipsrw"

DBROUSER=opensipsro

DBROPW=opensipsro

DBROOTUSER="root"

USERCOL="username"

INSTALL_EXTRA_TABLES=ask

INSTALL_PRESENCE_TABLES=ask

INSTALL_SERWEB_TABLES=ask

CTLENGINE="FIFO"

OSIPS_FIFO="/tmp/opensips_fifo"

PID_FILE=/var/run/opensips/opensips.pid

Now create the database:

opensipsdbctl create

This command will ask for the root mysql password.

Configuring Mysql support:

make the following changes in the opensips file configuration /usr/local/etc/opensips/opensips.cfg/:

vim /usr/local/etc/opensips/opensips.cfg

loadmodule "db_mysql.so"

loadmodule "auth.so"

loadmodule "auth_db.so"

modparam("usrloc", "db_mode", 0); #THIS LINE MUST TO BE COMMENTED

modparam("usrloc", "db_mode", 2)

modparam("usrloc", "db_url", "mysql://opensips:opensipsrw@localhost/opensips")

----- auth_db params -----

/* uncomment the following lines if you want to enable the DB based authentication */

modparam("auth_db", "calculate_ha1", yes)

modparam("auth_db", "password_column", "password")

modparam("auth_db", "db_url", "mysql://opensips:opensipsrw@localhost/opensips")

Create the softphone user in the database:

opensipsctl add 1234 1234

opensipsctl add 5678 5678

Create the Opensips user in the Mysql:

mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO opensips@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'opensips';

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO opensips@127.0.0.1 IDENTIFIED BY 'opensips';

Starting OpenSIPS

There are two ways tho start the opensips:

Use just one of them;

1. /etc/init.d/opensips start | stop

2. opensipsctl start | stop

Finished instalation.

Now you can test using X-lite or your softphone registering with the created opensips user.

eg: the created opensips users;

Create teh softphone user in the database:

opensipsctl add 1234 1234 ## user and pass

opensipsctl add 5678 5678
