asterisk users - Apr 2003 - Weirdness on "hookflash call pickup"

I'm sure dumb when it comes to describing things that happen on my system.

I'm making an outbound call on my ATA186 when another call comes in.  I 
first get the nasty CID screech and then the periodic call-waiting tone. 
  So far, so good.

Then I hookflash, and just like it's supposed to, the waiting caller is 
on the line.

But during the duration of that conversation, my console is going crazy, 
spewing this message:

  -z: No such file or directory
  -z: No such file or directory
  -z: No such file or directory

It doesn't seem to hurt anything, but it's wild to look at.  The 
messages stop as soon as the call is hung up.

Anyone know what I'm looking at?

Thx.

Id guess its looking for mpg123 in a place that doesnt exist .. for the 
music on hold.  Check your paths ..

In your /etc/asterisk/musiconhold.conf, I suspect you have a
space between your musiconhold directory and the '-z' option.
Remove that space.
