I recently worked on a project where the client was attempting to configure a SIP trunk between an Avaya IP-PBX and Skype for Business Server to enable Dial-in Conferencing. All inbound calls were being rejected with a SIP/2.0 503 Service Unavailable error message.
The Windows Event Log showed the calls were being dropped due to an internal server error with no further explanation.
We captured SIP messages using CLS Logger but the SIP messages did not contain any information to explain why the calls were being dropped.
Further investigation discovered that the Mediation, Conferencing Attendant and Response Group Service were not at the correct patch version.

This happened because Enterprise Voice was deployed after the server had been patched. When a new component is deployed the server must be re-patched to bring that component up to the same level. After running the server update again the versions are all at the correct level
