asterisk users - Apr 2007 - Zap failure: cause 66 - Channel not implemented

Hi,

I just compiled and installed Asterisk-1.4.2 along with zaptel-1.4.1
and libpri-1.4.0 on a Debian machine with a TDM400P card.
Everything goes ok but when I try to make a call through the ZAP
channel get an error message about NO ZAP CHANNEL AVAILABLE. Ztcfg and
zttool show the card correctly installed.

When I tried to use the debug command ZAP SHOW, it was not present in
the CLI.  My question is: Is this an indication that Asterisk has not
been correctly complied or is it normal that ZAP SHOW commands are not
available in 1.4.2?

Thanks for any hint.
Jose Limeres

Jose,

Look for chan_zap.so into channel folder in your asterisk installation
dir. If you only see chan_zap.c your module wasn't compiled. Try
recompile asterisk.

Run lsmod and see if zapata module is lodade, if not try modprobe zapata.

In asterisk cli try to load module direct: module load chan_zap to see
if any error happen.

I had a similar problem using FC6 in kernel 2.6.20. To resolve I've
use kernel i686 and kernel-devel i586.

This almost surely means that when you compiled asterisk, it did not
detect that you had the Zaptel drivers. I had this happen to me and I
beat my head against the wall for quite a while before I figured it out.
You must compile and install the zaptel driver first, then compile
asterisk.

Which version of Zaptel and Asterisk are you using.

If you have compiled Asterisk 1.4.2 with Zaptel 1.4.0 or a lesser version of
Zaptel, you may face this problem.

It happened to me with asterisk 1.4.1 and Zaptel 1.4.0
