Ok I tried but it does not work: now the settings are as follow exten => _123.,1,Answer exten => _123.,2,AGI(test.agi) exten => T,1,hangup the AbsoluteTimeout(5) is in test.agi (PHP) I put "AbsoluteTimeout" before "Answer": when i call for e.g 123456 it tries upto timing out. So I put again "Answer" and then "AbsoluteTimeout" then the last AGI command runs ok (result 200 ok) but it does not stops in the specified seconds. And if i cancel the call, my asterisk PBX stops and i have a message "500 Invalid/Unknown command" in a check file. So i don't know even if AbsoluteTimeout is support in an agi application??? Any help? regards ghislain
