[OpenSIPS-Users] Installing OpenSIPS on Red Hat

[Dave Singer]

Toyima,

I posted in the list last week on the thread "multiple
use_media_proxy() calls" my notes on getting media proxy installed on
centos 5.5.

To compile opensips just do the yum installs mentioned in that thread,
get the opensips source, unpack, compile and install according to docs
on install from source.
what I do after the yum installs and updates:

cd /usr/local/src/
wget "http://opensips.org/pub/opensips/latest/src/opensips-1.6.4-tls_src.tar.gz"
tar -xzf opensips-1.6.?-tls_src.tar.gz
cd opensips-1.6.?-tls
# note: the -j<number> is the number of threads the compile can use. I
usually use one less than number of cores.
TLS=1 make -j3 prefix=/opt/opensips doc-prefix=/usr/local
man-prefix=/usr/local include_modules="db_mysql db_postgres" install

A few months ago I also posted an init.d script for centos that does
double checking for problems (runs opensips with -c and runs it full
on localhost:2021 or some port) because -c only does syntax checking
and I got tired of restarting and it would fail when starting back up.
It also is set to use monit if it is installed and configured.
