Debugging in Yate
From Yate Documentation
This page purpose is to show you the methods of debugging in Yate.
Debug logged in file
At startup Yate can be started with logging in a file so that you can see the errors in the specified file.
To increase the visible debug level you have to add -v option more than once to the command line or to service start script:
yate -vvvvv -l logfile -d -s -r
To see what all the other options are please run
yate --help
Debug using rmanager module
This module allows controlling Yate using a simple telnet client.
Use telnet in console to enable debugging and to increase the level of debugging:
telnet localhost 5038 debug on debug level 10 debug sip level 10 color on
Use color on to colorize the debug output. The format for debug command from telnet is:
debug [module] [level|on|off]
Debug using msgsniff module
The module will dump the Yate messages to output console or log into file.
- First enable the module in yate.conf:
[general] msgsniff=yes modload=no ;Don't forget to load the sniffer module if modload parameter value is 'no'.
[modules] ;for debugging yate rmanager.yate=yes msgsniff.yate=yes
- Start Yate with logging:
./run -vvvvv -l logfile
- Enable / Disable sniffer in telnet:
The module must be loaded so that you can use this commands from telnet:
telnet 0 5038 ;enable sniffer: sniffer on ;and disabled with: sniffer off
