[OpenSIPS-Users] cdr_flag not working in v1.7

[Razvan Crainea]

Hello, Sebastien!

The problem is that you should set the cdr_flag only for the initial 
INVITEs. If you also set it for the BYE messages, the acc module will 
consider that you want to separately dump the BYE in the database, 
regardless the cdr automatic behaviour.

So the proper way to use the cdr accounting is to set the cdr_flag only 
for initial INVITEs:

if (is_method("INVITE") && has_totag())
     setflag(2);
