asterisk users - Dec 2008 - set monitor_filename

Hi

I have this in my queue extension and I see this in asterisk when I call to the
queue, but no file is created in the directory any ideas?

exten =>
s,1,Set(MONITOR_FILENAME=/var/spool/asterisk/queuecalls/QSAMPLE-${UNIQUEID})

-- Executing [s at kundservice:1] Set("SIP/0850001175-b7942770",
"MONITOR_FILENAME=/var/spool/asterisk/queuecalls/QSAMPLE-1228382046.12")

Regards
/ralf

The basics.  Does the queuecalls directory exist?  Does the user that * 
runs under have write permission in that directory?

The monitor-format parameter MUST be set in queues.conf to enable 
recording and to select the format of the recording.  In addition, I 
believe this is still true in 1.4, if you don't set the monitor-join 
parameter to yes you will end up with two files (in & out) instead of a 
single file with both legs of the call.

You are looking in the wrong place.  

Have a look at the following:

Core show function QUEUE_WAITING_COUNT

  -= Info about function 'QUEUE_WAITING_COUNT' =-

[Syntax]
QUEUE_WAITING_COUNT(<queuename>)

[Synopsis]
Count number of calls currently waiting in a queue

[Description]
Returns the number of callers currently waiting in the specified queue.
