Hi all, I am having a problem with ChanIsAvail. It always returns the same result, regardless of whether an extension is available or not. It always returns 0 Unknown Status. This is my dialplan. exten => _2XX,1,ChanIsAvail(SIP/winsor_${EXTEN}|s) exten => _2XX,2,Verbose(0, ${AVAILSTATUS}) exten => _2XX,3,GoToIf($[${AVAILSTATUS} = "1"]?4:5) exten => _2XX,4,SIPAddHeader(Call-Info: <sip:83.222.226.126>\;answer-after=0) exten => _2XX,5,Page(SIP/winsor_${EXTEN}) I found a mention of the problem here however, the patch that was recommended gave the same result. https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=14426 I am using the "s" option with ChanIsAvail because if I run the page, it interrupts the current call. I need to give the caller the busy signal when a minimum of 1 channel is in use. Can anyone suggest how to test whether the user is on the phone?

I poll hints to see if my channels are available (I pipe "core show hints" through a PERL program; could just as easily be done with PHP/Bash/etc). _____ From: asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Dan Journo Sent: Tuesday, November 03, 2009 6:20 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Problem with ChanIsAvail Sorry, forgot to add that im using the latest 1.4 version Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

By default, it doesn't keep track of device state, as that takes extra CPU cycles. You can turn it on for a particular SIP user/peer/friend by setting "call-limit=99" (or some other reasonable level) in Asterisk 1.4 or "callcounter=yes" on Asterisk 1.6.0 or later. You may also need to investigate "limitonpeer=yes" in Asterisk 1.4 and/or "counteronpeer=yes" in Asterisk 1.6.0 and later. -- Jared Smith Training Manager Digium, Inc.
