Legacy Backup/Restore: Extensions can't register

Hi,

I’m really desperate and need your help with this…

I just restored a legacy backup from FreePBX 12.0.76.6 to a freshly installed FreePBX 15.0.16.72. The process was finished without errors and all settings were adopted.

The issue: the restored extensions can’t register. I’ve added some new extensions for testing and these can register without any problems.

I’m always getting these log messages when trying to register with a restored extension:

If I try the same phone with a newly created extension, it is able to register:

I’ve tried with different SNOM phones and softphones, I’ve tried to turn off the firewall, I’ve tried with SIP instead of PJSIP, I’ve checked the config files for differences - unfortunately without success.

Any ideas what could cause this behavior? Are there any “hidden” settings that are not applied during a legacy restore?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Are your legacy extensions chan_sip? Because they are being rejected by the pjsip driver. If the restore changed your port bindings, you need to restart asterisk for the changes to take effect:

fwconsole restart

I’ve tried with both SIP and PJSIP, I’ve tried different ports and I restarted like 1000 times.

Edit: I even tried to delete a legacy extension and create it again. Same behavior… :confused:

Finally found the solution!

I’ve changed the “Endpoint Identifier Order” under “Settings > Asterisk SIP Settings > SIP Settings [chan_pjsip]” to this:

[username] [ip] [anonymous] [header] [auth_username]
