[asterisk-users] Any way of creating a file to write to from the dialplan, or must I use AGI?
Seems I can write to an existing file, but is there really no way of creating a new file to log some data to, without reverting to AGI? (will be different for each caller ID)

Won't the system command do it?

Yes, that would also work (thanks!). It just seems a bit hacky - STAT...GotoIf... System..,Return...FILE.... Has there been any previous discussion as to why FILE can't/won't create a file and write to it in one shot? If so, what was the outcome? Should I suggest it? Thanks!

I'm able to use the FILE function to create files just fine.
Set(FILE(${CALLFILE},,,al,u)=Extension: s)

A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher
a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts,
build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders,
cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure,
program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.
Specialization is for insects.

That's just what I'm using, John. But I'm getting (eg) [Nov 4 21:46:16] ERROR[1676][C-00000003]: func_env.c:449 file2format: Cannot open '/home/logs/anonymous.txt': No such file or directory [Nov 4 21:46:16] ERROR[1676][C-00000003]: func_env.c:949 file_write: File '/home/logs/anonymous.txt' not in line format Asterisk is running as root (yeah, I know!), and has permissions on that directory. Hmmm....
