asterisk users - Mar 2005 - Unable to create Zap channel when dialing using a bri cellular gateway

Hi all,
 
 
I have an asterisk box set up with a bri card (using zaphfc).  I have a
bri cellular gateway connected to it beacuse I'd like to route all my
cellular calls through that gateway.
 
The probel I encounter is that when trying to dial a phone number, I've
the message : unable to create a zap channel.
 
My card is normally well configured because when connected to the NT, It
works perfectly...  The gateway is configured as a NT as well so no
worry...
 
Has anyone an idea of what I should look for ?
 
Thank you
 
David Masure

Obviously, your ISDN gateway is misconfigured somehow. I would suggest
that you configure the gateway to dial some extension on your * box and
see if incoming calls work. If they don't, then there is a problem with
configuration of gateway's ISDN interface. If incoming calls work, then
it is possible that the gateway is rejecting outgoing calls based on
number called (I had that problem once), or perhaps you just forgot to
pay the bill to your mobile operator :)).
