asterisk users - May 2007 - [1.2.18] Wrong steps in extensions.conf?

Hello,

	Sometimes, when a call comes in from the PSTN through our VoIP gateway, 
the information that is sent to our web page that logs calls includes the 
original CID name instead of the one that is we expect to be rewritten on 
the fly using Asterisk's LookupCIDName:

================;extensions.conf
[internal]
exten => group,1,LookupCIDName
exten => group,n,AGI(web.agi|${CALLERID(num)}|${CALLERID(name)})
exten => group,n,Dial(${EXT204})
========;/var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/web.agi
#!/usr/bin/perl

#use LWP::Simple;
use URI::Escape;
use LWP 5.64;

open STDOUT, '>/dev/null';
#Causes double entry?
fork and exit;

my $cidnum = $ARGV[0];
my $cidname = $ARGV[1];

$safe_cidname = uri_escape($cidname);

my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new;

my $url = "http://www.acme.com/input.php?";
$url .= "name=" . $safe_cidname . "&";
$url .= "number=" . $cidnum . "&";

($min, $hrs, $day, $month, $year) = (localtime) [1,2,3,4,5];
$currentdate = sprintf("%02d/%02d/%02d", $day, $month+1, $year % 100);
$currenttime = sprintf("%02d:%02d", $hrs,$min);
$url .= "date=" . $currentdate . "&";
$url .= "time=" . $currenttime;
#print $url . "\n";

my $response = $browser->get( $url );
die "Can't get $url -- ", $response->status_line unless
$response->is_success;
print $response->content;
================
Could it be that, sometimes, Asterisk doesn't wait for the previous step to 
be completed before moving on to the next?

Thank you.

Hi Gilles,

I think that you must be take the incomming call control using AGI perl
scripting. Take a look on this script:


;extensions.conf
[internal]
exten => group,1,LookupCIDName
exten => group,n,AGI(web.agi|${CALLERID(num)}|${CALLERID(name)}|
${EXT204})

===================== web.agi====================#!/usr/bin/perl

use LWP::Simple;
use URI::Escape;
use LWP 5.64;
use Asterisk::AGI;

my $AGI         = new Asterisk::AGI;

open STDOUT, '>/dev/null';
#Causes double entry?
fork and exit;

my $cidnum = $ARGV[0];
my $cidname = $ARGV[1];
my $ext = $ARGV[2]

$safe_cidname = uri_escape($cidname);

my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new;

my $url = "http://www.acme.com/input.php?";
$url .= "name=" . $safe_cidname . "&";
$url .= "number=" . $cidnum . "&";

($min, $hrs, $day, $month, $year) = (localtime) [1,2,3,4,5];
$currentdate = sprintf("%02d/%02d/%02d", $day, $month+1, $year % 100);
$currenttime = sprintf("%02d:%02d", $hrs,$min);
$url .= "date=" . $currentdate . "&";
$url .= "time=" . $currenttime;
#print $url . "\n";

my $response = $browser->get( $url );
die "Can't get $url -- ", $response->status_line unless
$response->is_success;
print $response->content;

# send the result over callerid ;-)
$AGI->exec('SetCallerId', $response->content); 
$AGI->exec('Dial', "$ext");
$AGI->hangup();
#
=================================================

exten => group,n,Dial(${EXT204})
