Hey folks, I have my linuxbox connected to a PBX through a digium te110p card, E1 line. The asterisk is set up to be the timing master for the line. recently run into the following error message when starting asterisk: The message: --------- == Primary D-Channel on span 1 down Dec 7 11:34:02 WARNING[1105]: chan_zap.c:2282 pri_find_dchan: No D-channels available! Using Primary channel 16 as D-channel anyway! == Primary D-Channel on span 1 up Also the yellow alarm is not cleared on the PBX side. Any recommendations for the problem? Or should I use Tie-line connection between the PBX and asterisk somehow? thanks, lez config files follow: my /etc/zaptel.conf: -------------------8<----------- span=1,0,0,ccs,hdb3 bchan=1-15,17-31 dchan=16 my /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf: ----------------8<------------------- [trunkgroups] [channels] spanmap => 1,1,1 usecallerid=yes hidecallerid=no language=en callwaiting=no threewaycalling=yes transfer=yes echocancel=yes echotraining=yes callreturn=yes rxgain=0.0 txgain=0.0 callgroup=1 pickupgroup=1 immediate=no ; LOCAL CONFIGS: context = internal signalling = pri_net group = 1; channel => 1-15,17-31 switchtype = national
If I remember correctly an E1 has two D-Channels. Check your notes on what channels 31, 32 really do.....

E1 PRI has only one D channel and it is correctly defined as channel 16 in this config. You probably just need a T1/E1 crossover between asterisk and the PBX. Just cross pin one with four and two with five. I have even cut a cat5 cable, stripped the wires and crossed the pins appropriately and taped it up with electrical tape when in a pinch or just for testing. Obviously you will want to make a real crossover once you determine this is what you need. The above is assuming that your PBX is configured with E1 PRI CCS HDB3 Thanks, Steve> > If I remember correctly an E1 has two D-Channels.
