similar to: Using Dial() but no CDR is generated for this outcall

Hello, When I bridge an incoming and outgoing call (attempting to simulate call-forwarding) I'm only getting one CDR -- that of the outgoing call. A (PSTN) calls B (residing on Asterisk) and the Asterisk calls C (cell phone on PSTN) and bridges the call. The only CDR created is from B to C. I have even tried using Answer() and ForkCDR() to get two CDRs, but to no avail. I am starting to

Hi Gang I have not yet managed to find a solution to correctly generate CDRs for this situation: Alice calls Bob. Bob has call forwarding delayed 20s to Charlie. Charlie picks up immediately. exten => bob,1,DBget(cfwdly=CFDLY/${exten}); $cfwdly contains charlie same => n,Set(CDR(src)=${CALLERID(number)}) ; src 'alice' same => n,Set(CDR(dst)=${exten}) same =>

I have created an asterisk.org blog entry: http://www.asterisk.org/node/48358 to describe what I will shortly be committing to trunk to correct the weaknesses of CDRs, that asterisk users and developers have been complaining about for quite some time. Highlights: Restructuring the code and philosophy of CDRs. Plans to eliminate the ForkCDR() application Plans to create

Hello, I'm working on an Asterisk configuration for a call center, and they bill based on the time spent talking to an agent, but not for any time spent waiting in a queue. The CDR information contains the entire duration of the call as billable seconds, including time spent waiting in the queue. I would like the billable seconds to only include the time spent actually talking to an agent.

Hi, it's me again with a cdr-issue. I have the following example extensions.conf: # dial in exten => 100,1,Playback(hello) exten => 100,n,Dial(local/200,20,rtg) exten => 100,n,Playback(pleasewait) exten => 100,n,wait(10) exten => 100,n,Playback(goodbye) exten => 100,n,Hangup # for local dial exten => 200,1,Playback(hello) exten => 200,n,wait(10) exten =>

Greetings list, Whilst running through a routine check of some CDRs, I've noticed that the originating channel's accountcode isn't preserved on creating a local channel. For example, if we start with: exten => 123,1,Set(CDR(accountcode)=foo) exten => 123,n,Queue(bar,nrtw,,,) And the queue 'bar' is defined as follows: [bar] member => Local/456 at outbound member

Gang, I'm having this error pop up when I do a ForkCDR, and I'm not sure how to get around it. Here are a few log lines: Nov 8 10:37:08 VERBOSE[28079] logger.c: -- Executing ForkCDR("Zap/49-1", "") in new stack Nov 8 10:37:08 WARNING[28079] app_forkcdr.c: Channel does not have a CDR The scenario occurs like this: I use a .call file to generate a call on

Hi, I had Asterisk threads consuming 100% CPU at times since last week. Of course, last week an extra card was installed (we had a 1PRI, a 4PRI was added) so search concentrated on that, but to no avail. Today, I installed DDD on the machine and quickly found out that it was looping because cdr->next->next == cdr in ast_cdr_setapp(). I patched this up with some simple code in

Hi, I can't get Asterisk to save CDRs for calls transferred via SIP blind transfer. My extensions.conf: [globals] __TRANSFER_CONTEXT = transfer [common] exten => 123,1,Playback(demo-congrats) exten => 123,n,Hangup() exten => _0X.,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN}@PSTN-GW,60) exten => _0X.,n,Hangup() exten => i,1,Hangup() exten => h,1,Hangup() exten => t,1,Hangup() [transfer] exten

hello everyone. I am running asterisk and all of my CDRs are in the default csv. the system is so limited to ram (only 256) and I cannot run MySQL or any other program to give CDRs a fancy view. at the moment the only other software running is nginx for a static webpage with guidance on the system. I do now want to move to sql or similar databases because the machine cannot handle it (I have

Hi, all Sorry for null subject last mail. I use Ubuntu 12.04.01 TLS and install asterisk 11.7.0 (tar.gz downloaded from asterisk.org). We named it "Asterisk11". I want to generate a call file to /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing. This call will dial out to Local Channel and return to some Extens. Then Asterisk11 will generate a CDR records to MySQL's cdr table(in database

First off, I also posted this on the digium forums so if anyone here also reads those, sorry for the cross-post. When I place an outbound call using SIP to my cell phone, asterisk immediately starts processing the dialplan without waiting for the call to be answered. We could handle this on DAHDI using callprogress, but I don't know of a similar setting for SIP. Here is the contents of

Hi, I`ve recently upgraded a server from 1.8 to Asterisk 13. While everything is under control, I have one issue with the way CDRs are kept for queues. And I don`t mean ?I don`t like it?. I mean it crashes the server. I realize there are multiple CDRs per queue call ? one per ring/per phone, basically. The issue is that whenever the number of CDRs ?to be recorded? for a call exceeds 5000,

Hi OutCALL 1.40 is released. It is available in two flavours: - Without extension authentication - With extension authentication Changelog: OutCALL 1.40 (2007-06-29): - Multi-language support (French-Canada is included in the setup, while the English PO file is distributed with OutCALL setup which can be translated and added into OutCALL in run-time) Please use http://www.poedit.net/ for

Hello! I have been doing some tests with call transfers and I have been looking at the CDRs that Asterisk generates. Scenario 1: A calls B B answers and does a blind transfer to C (using # key) C answers and talks with A Scenario 2: A calls B B answers and does an attended transfer do C (using the phone's transfer key) C answers, B hangs up, and C talks with A For scenario 1, the CDR shows

Hi, Using 1.6.2.13. I'd like to know how I can force Asterisk to fork a call. To simplify things, Let's say I have an out context (for outbound calls) and an in (for inbound). If person A wants to call person B, and both are on my servers, I don`t want to send the call out. I want all this to happen internally on my server. The problem is if I use some condition to send

Hi Everyone, I am using OutCall 1.6 (latest) with Asterisk 1.6 and Windows Vista. I can originate calls see the program login nicely but when a call comes in it only shows the Name portion of the CLID and not the number hence it pulls up a new contact on Outlook. The new contact only show name and last name and no CLID Number again. So, this repeats every-time I call even if I manually enter a

I've taken the liberty of starting a new thread to discuss the design of the Asterisk CDR mechanism. The discussion has been kindly initiated by murf putting together a proposal: http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/murf/RFCs. After reading the proposal I still don't think it's the right way to go. To my mind adding more channel variables increases the complexity in a situation

Has anyone implemented an outcall notification when there is a voice message waiting? I would like to have the system notify me of awaiting voice messages by a telephone call rather than an email notification. I would imagine that a call could be dumped into the asterisk spool directory, but I'm not sure how I would monitor for messages waiting. Has anyone implemented such a feature for
