[OpenSIPS-Users] OpenSIPS + MediaProxy: "dispatcher.socket" not being created

[Gary Patton]

Craig
Thanks for getting back to me.  When I do a "ps ax | grep media-" on my OpenSIPS / MediaProxy dispatcher server, it shows that media-dispatcher is NOT running.  I thought that was because media-dispatcher process tried to start but aborted when it couldn't locate "dispatcher.sock" in /var/run/mediaproxy.
Because my OpennSIPS config loads the mediaproxy.so module w/the "modparam("mediaproxy", "mediaproxy_socket", "var/run/mediaproxy/dispatcher.sock") set in the OpenSIPS config file, I thought OpenSIPS created the dispatcher.sock.  Or do I have it backwards - does MediaProxy's media-dispatcher process create dispatcher.sock?
As for rights, I have to confess that I haven't paid attention to rights.  I followed instructions from the MediaProxy documentation on installing MediaProxy using the Debian respository.  The instructions didn't mention setting rights for MediaProxy processes.  I did install MediaProxy via a sudo user account. I also made sure that I copied all of the included MediaProxy certificates into the directory specified in the [TLS] section of MediaProxy's config.ini file.   
But I'm not sure which process creates "dispatcher.sock" so I don't know whether the rights are configured correctly.  When I do a "ls -l /var/run/mediaproxy/" i got
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 160 Jul 20 19:38 tls
(I see I was sloppy and used "dispatcher.sock" and "dispatcher.socket" in my post.  I double-checked my OpenSIPS and MediaProxy config files and I did use "dispatcher.sock" in both.  Sorry about that.)
Regards
Gary

Do you have mediaproxy-dispatcher running? Also does the relevant process have rights to create the dispatcher.sock?

Hi all.  OpenSIPS 1.11.1 and MediaProxy 2.6.1.  
My OpenSIPS creates the opensips.sock just fine.  I don't believe my OpenSIPS is creating the "dispatcher.sock" properly or at all.  After I do a "/etc/init.d/opensips restart" command, I look in the /var/run/mediaproxy/ directory and I never see the "dispatcher.socket" in there.


Here's one of the error message lines from my opensips.log:
>>Jul 20 19:44:50 opensips1 /usr/local/opensips_proxy/sbin/opensips[9476]: ERROR:mediaproxy:mediaproxy_connect: failed to connect to /var/run/mediaproxy/dispatcher.sock: No such file or directory

The strange thing is that I always get a
INFO:core:daemonize: pre-daemon process exiting with -0
and my SIP softphones register with no problems and I can make calls.

Any direction on what to look for, research, or reconfigure would be appreciated.  Thanks.
Regards
Gary
