<p>when starting from the "sbin" directory it uses this as default: "<span style="font-size: 12pt;">/var/run/kamailio.pid"...</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I changed it to "</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">PID_FILE=/var/run/kamailio/kamailio.pid</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">"
and it works fine as well</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br>
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">the PID_FILE in the "<span> /etc/init.d/kamailio" file is also that one: "</p>
<div>PID_FILE=/var/run/kamailio/kamailio.pid" and that folder has all permissions.<br>
<br>
</div>
</span></span>
<p></p>
I can still use it w/o the service script but it would be nice to have it be working properly<br>
