[asterisk-users] Problem with the ring timeout in dial command for local extensions
Hi all, I don't know if this is the right list to ask, since I'm using Trixbox version 1.0.0.28, that has asterisk 1.2.17. I'm trying to configure the ring timeout value for my local extensions (when dialing from one to another), and the dial command simply ignores my values... I have one extension 0017 in my box, so I used the command Dial(SIP/0017|100|rTtWw) to dial to it. The call gets completed without a problem, but it only rings for 30 seconds, when it should ring for a 100 seconds. I'm pretty sure this is my mistake here, but I didn't find a solution. I also tried changing the value directly in trixbox web interface that says "Number of seconds to ring phones before sending callers to voicemail" and nothing happens. I know that trixbox does weird things to my configuration files, but I edited extenions.conf, since it does not get messed up by trixbox. If I use the dial command to dial out with my termination provider (runs on IAX2) the timeout option works just fine. All help is very welcome, Thiago Abra sua conta no Yahoo!

You might try to find information about that: It might be configurable in the phone. I am not well informed about trixbox, but I assume you can get an asterisk console by "asterisk -r". Use that and "verbose 10" to retrieve the events that occur when the timeout falls. That might help you find the culprit. Regards Anselm
