asterisk users - Sep 2012 - $agi->hangup() Does not hang up the channel

Hello All,

I need to use agi to handle some issue , after finishing agi i want to
hang up the channel , if i call from an extension there is no problem
but i want to be the same for PSTN (outside) caller , if someone call
asterisk show the hang up channel but the caller is not disconnected
and if meanwhile someone inside try to call from an extension the
outide caller can listen to DTMF and everything . . . .
I would be really grateful if you share your close experience .

Regards,
Mehdi

If this is on Analog (FXO) lines then you may be out of luck.  In India, 
at least, the called party cannot hang up an incoming call on an analog 
line -- the caller has to do it.

In any case, what happens if you execute HangUp() in your dialplan 
instead of in AGI?

Thank you for your reply
i did it in both ways (AGI and DIALPLAN) but not working.
so you mean it is because of telco ?
what about digital lines such as E1 ?

This is happen whenever caller calls from mobile phone and if the
caller calls from analog line i can handle with :

;exten => s,n,Playtones(congestion) ; send the audio sequence that
humans understand means "congestion"
;exten => s,n,Congestion(5) ; signal the other end of congestion. Wait
for hangup.

and call hangs up from the telco , but it does not for mobile calls

Mehdi

From my experience: the call gets disconnected if the called party 
executes HangUp on a digital line.  The problem is only with Analog 
lines.
