asterisk users - Aug 2008 - callfiles/manager api originate call fails

Hi all,
asterisk is giving me tough time. its been 3 days I am trying to originate
outgoing call using manager api/callfiles. both seem to work fine when i
originate a call for a local peer, but if i try originating a call outside
using a trunk thats when everything goes wrong. It does originate the call
but the call does not go through to the desired endpoint. The trunk
configuration is correct as all the other calls from users are fine. Am here
for any suggestion. How can i make it work. If anyone knows anyother
technique to originate auto calls from asterisk i'll be happy to try them
out.

 I am using the following manager command,

fputs($socket, "Action: Originate\r\n");

//fputs($socket, "Channel: SIP/abc\r\n");

fputs($socket, "Channel:
SIP/".$txt_your_number."@TRUNK-OUT\r\n");

fputs($socket, "Context: webcall\r\n");

fputs($socket, "Exten:
932\r\n");
fputs($socket, "Priority: 1\r\n");

fputs($socket, "CallerID:
WebCall<932>\r\n");
fputs($socket, "Timeout: 30000\r\n");

fputs($socket, "Variable: ID=" . $id .
"|accountcode=7:0:webcall|sec=" .
$min . "|dialnum=" . $txt_to_number . "|source_num=" .
$txt_your_number .
"|calldate=" . date("Y-m-d H:i:s") . "\r\n\r\n");


and my callfile contents are:

Channel: SIP/TRUNK-OUT/$DIALNUM
CallerID: Webcall<932>
MaxRetries: 2
RetryTime: 10
WaitTime: 35
Account: 7:0:webcall
Context: webcall
Extension: 932
Priority: 1
Set: ID=".$id."
Set: accountcode=7:0:webcall
Set: sec=".$allowed_secs."
Set: dialnum=".$dialnum."\
et: source_num=".$srcnum."
Set: calldate=".$calldate." ".$calltime."\n";

I would say remove the "@TRUNK-OUT" part and make sure that the
context
you send the call to knows about sending calls to the outside world.

Thank you and have any kind of day you want,

Actually both calls have to be originated to the outside world. Thats why im
using @TRUNK-OUT, when the first call is answered only then the call goes to
a context. Thats where the problem is, the first call does not originate so
i cant throw it to any context.
