Hello, I'm just starting out with asterisk and I'm playing around with the system. Currently I have a Digium TE210P connected to a PRI on the Asterisk server. I have a SIP soft phone on my laptop for testing that is working fine. When I try to place a call from my soft phone I get this from Asterisk: May 1 09:11:41 NOTICE[20098]: app_dial.c:1029 dial_exec_full: Unable to create channel of type 'Zap' (cause 34 - Circuit/channel congestion) == Everyone is busy/congested at this time (1:0/1/0) == Auto fallthrough, channel 'SIP/test-3a26' status is 'CONGESTION' #/etc/zaptel.conf: span=1,0,0,esf,b8zs bchan=1-23 dchan=24 #/etc/asterisk/zapata.conf: [channels] switchtype=national context=default signalling=pri_cpe group=1 channel => 1-23 #/etc/asterisk/extensions.conf: [general] static=yes writeprotect=no autofallthrough=yes [default] exten => 123,1,Answer() exten => 123,2,Playback(hello-world) exten => 123,3,Hangup() exten => _9NXXXXXX,1,Dial(Zap/g1) Any ideas?

Looks like your D-channel is down. Ztcfg reports all is ok, b/c as far as iut is concerned, it is talking to your card just fine. LibPri handles the PRI implemetaton. Since you are able to see the pri commands from the CLI, Isdn supprt is linked into your asterisk core. Call your telco and ask if they have your D-channel in a loop. ________________________________ From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Dan Brummer Sent: Monday, May 01, 2006 2:48 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Problems with zaptel and TE210P Some more info to my problem: ipt-dev01*CLI> zap show status Description Alarms IRQ bpviol CRC4 T2XXP (PCI) Card 0 Span 1 OK 0 0 0 ipt-dev01*CLI> pri show span 1 Primary D-channel: 24 Status: Provisioned, Down, Active Switchtype: National ISDN Type: CPE Window Length: 0/7 Sentrej: 0 SolicitFbit: 0 Retrans: 0 Busy: 0 Overlap Dial: 0 T200 Timer: 1000 T203 Timer: 10000 T305 Timer: 30000 T308 Timer: 4000 T313 Timer: 4000 N200 Counter: 3 Any ideas?

Thank you for the reply Alexandar. After I restarted my dev machine I recieved these messages from asterisk: chan_zap.c:2290 pri_find_dchan: No D-channels available! Using Primary channel 24 as D-channel anyway! chan_zap.c:8202 pri_dchannel: PRI got event: No more alarm (5) on Primary D-channel of span 1 May 1 10:23:27 WARNING[3882]: chan_zap.c:2290 pri_find_dchan: No D-channels available! Using Primary channel 24 as D-channel anyway! So you are right on the D-Chan. If my telco says everything is ok, what should I look at next? AFAIK this PRI was in working condition before I moved it to the asterisk test machine.
