ALERT GVSIP Is Dead, was: GVSIP Registration Issues. Asterisk 13.23.0 Seems To Fix The Problem.

cd /usr/src

I went ahead and did it. My gvsip trunks seemed to be working fine, but did it anyway. No downtime, no ill effects. Hopefully this will keep me ahead of future problems.

Had some time last night, so compiled 13.23. Will post how things go.

@wardmundy - I did this without the SRTP patch (didn't need it here), but are there any updates on that front?

Here's the latest, but there appear to still be some problems. We're dodging the hurricane at the moment so haven't had time to experiment.

One quirk I've had is that since moving to the new gvsip is that I can't call my own google voice number ("rejected by the service provider" error message). All other numbers work fine, but I can't call myself.

Just a note. I have had this issue from day one even with 13.22. I never had time to play with it though.

Didn't take long. Things were OK yesterday, but the problem trunk stopped working again today. Asterisk still showed the trunk as "registered". A "pjsip send register gvsip2" did bring it back to life though.

Haven't had a chance to look at the logs yet.

It sounds like there are several problems with registration. All my trunks are fine since 13.23 was installed except for the failure to re-register after an Internet interruption when they showed "Unregistered."

I can't get any of the GVSIP to work. How can I check the registration of the GVSIP1-4 trunks?

In the admin interface click on Reports and select Asterisk Info. On the right, click Chan_PJSip Info.

Thank you.
I am running Asterisk 13.22.0 & Incredible PBX 13-13.7

I only have chan_sip and none of my gvsip1-4 are showing only another sip provider trunk i have that is working and showing registered. any suggestions of what to check?

If the gvsip connections are installed properly then you should see them under Chan_PJSip Registrations, even if they aren't registered. In that case they would indicate unregistered, but still show up.

You should be following the instructions under "Installing GVSIP-NAF for FreePBX" at the following link.

Have you don't that?

Yes I have. I think the GV Motif didn't properly get removed. Is there a way to uninstall the GVSIP-NAF and reinstall it? I think I might have not removed one of the GVMOTIF trunks before I installed the GVSIP-NAF.

Also looks like PJSIP commands might not be working."No such command 'pjsip show registrations'"

It's not a command. It's a section on the Chan_PJSip Info page. Mine looks like this.

Notice that I have three gvsip connections, and they're all registered.

I'm really not sure what the consequences are for what you've done. My gut reaction is to install from scratch again, but there may be an answer out there for you. I suggest that you start a new thread with a descriptive subject that will attract people who might know.

I downloaded and installed the latest Raspberry Pi version as a clean install. I programmed all my stations, fax, and trunks before installing my GVsip trunks. Once I installed the GVsip trunks they worked 1 time each (2 of them) then any subsequent calls to them failed. At least immediately they showed as registered. The next day when I looked at them they showed as Rejected. That made me think I might have flipped the my refresh tokens. I went to Google and created new refresh tokens and tried again. Like last time the trunks worked for about 1 call then failed while showing registered as their status. Later when I checked the status became "rejected" again.

I went ahead and did the upgrade to 13.23 and the trunks worked after the asterisk restart. I even poked it with a stick and rebooted the system to see if they would fail. So far it has been 40 minutes since the last reboot and they are still working. The strange thing is the Dash Board is still showing these 2 trunks as off line.

Known issue. The dashboard doesn't know how to handle the custom trunks.

Started seeing random "Rejected" registrations in the last several days.
"pjsip send register gvsipX" seems to clear the problem in less than 60 seconds. Considering running a cron job until fixed in Asterisk.

any update on this issue? i have the same problem, can you share your cronjob script for pjsipsend register, so i can use it meanwhile as well?

Ariban,

Here is the script code:

#!/bin/bash

TIMESTAMP=`date "+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"`

response=$(asterisk -rx "pjsip show registrations" | grep -e "Rejected" -e "Unregistered")

if [ -z "$response" ]
then
        if [[ $0 != *"cron"* ]]
        then
                echo "$TIMESTAMP All GVSIP Channels Are Registered"
        fi
else
        line=1
        col=0
#
        for word in $response
        do
                col=$((col+1))
                cell[col]="$word"
#
                if [ $col -eq "3" ]
                then
                        line=$((line+1))
                        if [ ${cell[col]} != "Registered" ]
                        then
                                command='asterisk -rx "pjsip send register '${cell[col-1]}'"'
                                $(eval $command)
#
                                if [[ $0 != *"cron"* ]]
                                then
                                        echo $command
                                else
                                        echo "$TIMESTAMP"":" "${cell[col-1]}" "reregister request sent." >> /var/log/asterisk/gvsip-reg
                                fi
                        col=0
                        fi
                fi
        done
fi

You would need to create the /var/log/asterisk/gvsip-reg file with proper permissions and place a symlink to the script in the respective cron sub-directory. The symlink name should contain the "cron" substring. This is done to allow the script to know it runs as a cron job.

Please let me know if you have questions.

[ariban]

Wow thank you for the code.
Excuse my ignorance, i am not very good at this.
How do i do the below

I put something in crontab? Nano /etc/crontab ?
What do i put?
Thank you

 

[Vladimir Mikhelson]

Ariban,

You need to do something like that:

• sudo touch /var/log/asterisk/gvsip-reg
• place the script into /root/scripts/gvsip-reg using sudo nano
• sudo chmod 700 /root/scripts/gvsip-reg
• sudo ln -s /root/scripts/gvsip-reg /etc/cron.hourly/gvsip-reg-cron

I have not tested the commands, just typed them in here. I assumed your Linux distribution has /etc/cron.hourly If it does not please adjust accordingly.
