asterisk users - Oct 2009 - AMI input streams limit?

Hello List,


I was writing something in PHP that connects to AMI and sends a data 
stream ( example of it: http://slackware-es.com/ami-input.txt ), but the 
file (voicemail.conf , in this case) does not get fully written.

I tried pasting the stream directly through telnet to AMI, and 
everything *appears* to be OK, but the file is not being completely written.

No errors on CLI
No errors on AMI

I'm Using Asterisk 1.4.26.2


Notes:
Increasing the writetimeout on manager.conf does not seems to have any 
effect on this issue.


Have someone seen something like this before?

I don't know what the error is, but I would assume you need to do one
final file close or commit to make the stream end.

In other news, this sounds like a silly way to transfer a file. I
would suggest NFS or other shared file system, rsync, scp, you get the
idea.

What part of the file is missing?

The end?

Try writing some empty entries to the end to flush out the valid entries.

Yes, as you can see in the example stream 
http://slackware-es.com/ami-input.txt (I can not use pastebin, sorry, 
emails trigger the spam filter there) I added a context at the end, and 
then appended some lines (mailboxes). It stops writing at the same point 
always, but without displaying error messages.

I will try adding some empty entries as you suggested. Thank you.

It appears you have one action with lots of action ids.

Have you tried running them as separate entries and checking the results 
of each action?
