SOLVED Upgraded to Debian 9 and Freeswitch 1.8, External will not start.

[Davesworld]

Hello I tried to do a search here with this error: [ERR] sofia.c:3228 Error Creating SIP UA for profile: external

Everything works as before except sip external. As one would guess, since internal still works, I can call extension to extension and access voicemail. I am trying to figure out what is so different about the external sip profile in Freeswitch 1.8. Nothing else was broken in the upgrade to Debian 9 and then Freeswitch 1.8.

I noticed that the installer as of last September of 2018 is meant to work with this combination. Any ideas?

The if statement in the source code is:
if (profile->wss_bindurl) {
stream->write_function(stream, " <wss-bind-url>%s</wss-bind-url>\n", switch_str_nil(profile->wss_bindurl));

I should mention that I checked and nothing is bound to port 5080 using
netstat -nlp | fgrep 5080 Just for the heck of it I tested port 5081 as well, nothing bound.

I turned off ssl and it works now. What is the deal with wss?

Ok so I went into the variables and changed the ssl directory tls as follows and it works now: external_ssl_dir $${conf_dir}/tls

The internal ssl directory was wrong as well. It just so happens that before the upgrade ssl was turned off for internal and external so I never noticed.
