asterisk users - Aug 2006 - MaxRetries:1 - Problems Dialout Call files

Hi all,

I'm working with dialout call files and i've noticed that with
MaxRetries: 1
,many times the call is already established successfully and asterisk dials
a second call.
I mean Asterisk dials party A then party B then Bridges the call and after a
while starts trying to do the same...

MaxRetries: <number> Number of retries before failing

This way i get two GSM calls to the same mobile while the first one is
sucessfully running... I only figured out to use now MaxRetries:0

Any guess why does this happens?

I was having the same issue until I schedule the dialout a few minutes 
after the .call file creation.

I use the following:

cat vm-callout.sh

#!/bin/sh

cd /usr/local/bin
/bin/touch /usr/local/bin/$1.call
/bin/touch -r /usr/local/bin/$1.call -m -F 150 /usr/local/bin/$1.call
cp --preserve=timestamps /usr/local/bin/$1.call 
/var/spool/asterisk/outgoing/
