asterisk users - Feb 2005 - ASTCC error on free calls

I set up certain routes in my ASTCC application to be free of charge.  When
a user attempts to dial one of these numbers, the announcement plays the
prompts "This call will cost", "nothing", and then
terminates the script,
dropping the call, leaving the card locked in the database as being in use.

 
Any ideas?
 
        Sincerely,

Trevor,

The problem is a "division by zero" issue in the astcc.agi @ line 538 
(I
have made a few mods so my line #'s may not be exactly the same).  The line
reads
:
$maxmins = int(($credit - $adjconn) / $adjcost);

you may want to change the script to something like:

if ($adjcost < 1) {
	$maxmins = <some time limit in minutes you want to impose on a free
call>;
} else {
	$maxmins = int(($credit - $adjconn) / $adjcost);
}

I set $maxmins = $credit on my system and that will give 1 minute per penny
of account balance as the max duration of the call but will not charge any
duration related fees against the account.  Any connection fees would still
be assessed at call termination, though.
