Fusion PBX - one extension can't register any devices.

Hi All,

I have a new FusionPBX installation running in a VM on Debian 13.

There are around 20 extensions configured, along with the same number of devices (Yealink SIP-T74U phones). Everything is working correctly except for one extension: 208.

This extension will not register any device. The same device can be assigned to a different extension and registers without any issues, but extension 208 will not register on any device. The phone simply shows “No Service”.

I have already tried the following:

  • Deleting and recreating the extension
  • Registering the device with a different extension number first, then changing it back to 208
  • Exporting/importing the extension configuration and modifying it manually
None of these steps helped.

No matter what I do, whenever I create extension 208, no device can register to it.

I had a similar issue with extension 202 a couple of weeks ago. At the time, I restored the VM from backup, which resolved it, but I did not have time to investigate the root cause. I would now like to understand what is causing this issue in case it happens again in the future.

Has anyone experienced something similar or knows what could be causing it?
 
There are two sets of logs attached. The first was captured when the device was assigned to extension 210, which registers successfully. The second was captured when the same device was assigned to extension 208, which fails to register.

In both cases, the initial response to the REGISTER request is 401 Unauthorized.

However, the response to the second REGISTER request differs: extension 210 receives a 200 OK, while extension 208 receives a 403 Forbidden.

I have already verified the credentials, deleted and recreated both extensions, and tested again, but the issue persists. Extension 208 is still unable to register on any device.
