Hi, I have Asterisk running with the VoiceMail. Using the latest CVS. I have my extensions.conf setup so that if a SIP caller dials *99 the VoicemailMain() as follows: exten => *99,1,Wait(1) exten => *99,2,VoicemailMain() A couple days ago I installed the MySQL/Voicemail support described at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+voicemail+database Now for some reason when I call *99 from a SIP extension I am prompted for a Mailbox number but then nothing happens. It used to prompt for a password. I've un-installed the MySQL/Voicemail support and it still doesn't work. From the Asterisk console I get the following message when I hangup when I am NOT prompted for a password. Aug 24 12:34:36 WARNING[319509]: app_voicemail.c:3568 vm_execmain: Couldn't read username Any ideas? I can see on several lists that this is a common problem but I haven't found the answer yet.

[Asterisk-Users] Voicemail & "Couldn't read username" error
The error you are getting suggest that Asterisk can't read the DTMF being entered. Umar On Tue, 2004-08-24 at 18:49, Bill wrote:> Hi, > > I have Asterisk running with the VoiceMail.
