Hi all

I'm trying to dial out with a Digium X100P card set up
on channel Zap/1 to local number (25921163).

My call file is: (out.call)

Channel: Zap/1/25921163
Callerid: 25921163
MaxRetries: 2
RetryTime: 60
WaitTime: 30
Context: outgoing
Extension: s
Priority: 1

And my extension.conf is,

[outgoing]
exten => s,1,DigitTimeout,5
exten => s,2,ResponseTimeout,10
exten => s,3,Answer
exten => s,4,Wait(1)
exten => s,5,Playback(ent-target-attendant)
exten => s,6,Playback(for-english-press)
exten => s,7,Playback(vm-goodbye)
exten => s,8,Hangup

When I move my out.call file to var/spool/asterisk/outgoing,
the call is made to the above number but with it I have few
issues,

Before I pick the target phone(25921163), the channel
is answered and completes the extensions. i,e omly if
I pick the phone immediately I can listen to some part
of playback (even If I donot pick the phone the
channel is answered).

It has to answer the extensions in the context
[outgoing] from priority 1 only when I pick the target
phone right?

That is not happening,

Thanks in advance,
Sheeju

Asterisk seems to assume that the phone has been answered. 

To get around this, I have a context setup that plays the message, Press 
1 to do whatever. It counts the number of times this message has been 
played.  If played 6 times, play sorry, you've taken to long to dial and 
then hangup.

I have the same setup and I don't have the problem you are having.  The only
difference I can see between my setup and yours is that instead of
'Playback', we are using 'Background'.  Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Kyle
