[OpenSIPS-Users] Odd URI formatting issue when using Exec to return a variable

HI Bogdan,

Thanks for the reply.

I was using 3.2.13, so I have now patched this to 3.2.15, which is the latest version on the 3.2 branch. I repeated the test and got the same behaviour. Please see the below information as requested...

Script...

        if ( $si == '10.10.14.71' && is_method("INVITE") ) {
                        exec("/usr/local/bin/sbc-route", $tU, $var(out));
                        xlog("Value returned from Re-direct Script is $var(out)");
                        $branch = $var(out);
                        xlog("Target is set as $branch");
                        send_reply(302, "Server Redirect");
                        exit;
        }

Xlog information logged when the call request comes in...

If it is any help, I did try another method of inputting the Contact header, which was using the 'append_to_reply' command, rather than using the $branch method, so I just formatted in the URI as such...

append_to_reply('Contact: <$var(out)>');

This pushed the closing > from the 'Contact' URI to the "Server" line, as you can see on the outputted 302 below...

Whether this is related or not, I cannot say, but thought I would include it in any case.

Many Thanks,

Hi Ben,

Could you post the xlog output and the resulting 302 ? Also be sure you are using the latest 3.2 version - please post the `opensips -V` here.

Regards,

I am using Opensips v.3.2 and I am attempting to replicate the 302 redirect outlined on the blog (https://blog.opensips.org/2018/07/05/handling-sip-redirect-requests-in-realtime/), but am running into an odd issue.

I am using exec to execute an external program, which returns a URI as a variable, which is then used to populate the $branch field, which is then returned as the contact URI in the 302 response.

For reasons I cannot explain, even though the URI is correctly formatted in the xlogs which I print off during the call request, when the 302 message is received, the Contact URI is missing the end '>'character. This means the server the 302 is being sent to doesn't ACK the message, as the contact URI is invalid.

If I specify the URI directly within OpenSIPs, then the contact header is then formatted correctly.

Initially I thought the issue was related to the script returning the variable (bash script), so I swapped to a Golang program, essentially returning the same URI, but the same behaviour occurs with this as well.

The script is setup as follows...

        if ( $si == '10.10.14.71' && is_method("INVITE") ) {
                        exec("/usr/local/bin/sbc-route", $tU, $var(out));
                        xlog("Value returned from Re-direct Script is $var(out)");
                        $branch = $var(out);
                        xlog("Target is set as $branch");
                        send_reply(302, "Server Redirect");
                        exit;
        }

Can anyone offer any ideas as to why this may be occurring?
