[Asterisk-Users] SIP debug logging

[Nikolai Lusan]

Hi,

i am trying to sort out an issue with my SIP provider (I can make
outgoing calls but am not recieving calls) and have been trying to use
"sip debug" from the CLI. I am after a way to get these debug messages
into a file (I find it easier to go over a file than having to deal with
all the re-register messages flying by the screen). I have tried setting
the debug field in logger.conf, but this doesn't seem to be doing what I
want. Is there an easy way to have these messages going into a file?

If you are using putty as your ssh client... create the ssh tunnel to the *
box & then go to "session-> logging-> log printable output only" in your
putty configuration & save.

To do it on the asterisk box only, I only know of the logger:

1. In logger.conf set "full => warning,error,verbose,debug" then save the
file.
2. Do a "logger reload" command from the CLI.
3. Do "sip debug peer/ip 'whatever' " and make your test calls.

The debug will show in /var/log/asterisk/full

I find that the easiest way is to connect to asterisk like this:

asterisk -rnvvvvdddd | tee /tmp/asterisk-debug

The "n" will remove some ascii color codes. You might want to add a
"g" as
well to force core files if Asterisk crashes.

asterisk -rnvvvvdddd | tee /tmp/asterisk-debug

What's wrong with:

tail -f /var/log/asterisk/full

(after setting the desired verbosity and debug level)

This also removes the need for -n
