[OpenSIPS-Users] How to start OpenSIPS 3.0 server

[Tekin, Arda]

Hi Liviu,

Thank you very much for all your answers. 

I had built and installed opensips from the source code on CentOS 7 

It seems that service startup scripts and permissions need to be handled for CentOS. I have applied following commands (as root) and now the service works successfully. 

Copy init script:
cp /root/src/opensips-3.0/packaging/redhat_fedora/opensips.init /etc/init.d/opensips
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/opensips

Edit the first section of script according to build prefix path. Mine looks like this
---

prog=opensips
opensips=/usr/local/sbin/$prog
cfgdir="/usr/local/etc/$prog"
pidfile="/var/run/$prog.pid"
lockfile="/var/lock/subsys/$prog"
configfile="$cfgdir/$prog.cfg"
m4configfile="$cfgdir/$prog.m4"
m4archivedir="$cfgdir/archive"
OPTIONS=""
S_MEMORY=32
P_MEMORY=32
RETVAL=0
...
---

Install service:
chkconfig --add opensips
chkconfig opensips on

Copy configuration file:
cp /root/src/opensips-3.0/packaging/redhat_fedora/opensips.sysconfig /etc/sysconfig/opensips

Add user for OpenSIPS:
adduser --system --user-group --shell /sbin/nologin --comment "OpenSIPS" --home-dir /var/run/opensips opensips

mkdir /var/run/opensips
chmod 755 /var/run/opensips
chown opensips:opensips /var/run/opensips 
 

Start OpenSIPS 3.0
service opensips start


Regards,
Arda

IMO, that is a typical systemd error, since it attempts to start your service in some insane "while (!started) { start_service() }"  type of loop until it realizes that it did so many quick attempts that it ran out of resource X (cycles, memory, disk, etc.) and needs to throttle things down...
