We have 1 server that after a few hours operating has multiple process of asterisk running. Here is the pstree output: # pstree init-+-atftpd |-auditd---{auditd} |-bash---safe_opserver---op_server.pl |-crond |-cwASTcall.pl |-dbus-daemon |-events/0 |-hald-+-hald-addon-acpi | `-2*[hald-addon-stor] |-httpd---3*[httpd] |-khelper |-klogd

Guys. Anybody know why sometimes on some servers Asterisk shows more than once while doing a ps? [root@server2 akrall]# ps -ax|grep asterisk 20555 ? S 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/sbin/safe_asterisk 20557 ? S 0:00 asterisk -vvvg -c 20558 ? S 0:00 asterisk -vvvg -c 20560 ? S 0:00 asterisk -vvvg -c 20561 ? S 0:00 asterisk -vvvg -c 20562 ? S

Hello all, Saturday night, after a couple of shots of bourbon, I realized that I had an old PC sitting in the garage that I could use as an Asterisk gateway if I just blew the dust off it and reloaded it with a modern Linux distribution. In my characteristically impulsive manner, I grabbed it and started cleaning it up so that I could put it in my office without my wife having a fit. The

Hi, Why does my asterisk keep forking instances at random times everyday? When I do ps aux, I got this: asterisk 13068 2.2 5.1 25924 12276 ?

Hello my friends, I'm very worry about a problem i'm having...my asterisk got freez some times, every 5 or 6 days with NO trace in /var/log/asterisk/messages What i want to know is if safe_asterisk has something to be with this?

I'm trying to fix a problem with the GrandStream Budgetone 102. I've been reading the source code, mailing lists and other resources. Here's the scenario and the approach I have been pursuing. I'm having some problems with the AGI calls and I hope someone can give me some clarification. PSTN <---> T1,PRI * <---> Grandstream BT 102 (12)

Hi, I'm running asterisk 1.2.0 on a debian rel 2.6.13 and when I start it with safe asterisk I got instantly more then 10 processes. Until now I didn't detected any impact of this process proliferation in the system, but it is strange and I'm not comfortable with this. Is this a know problem? Any ideas what is the problem here, or where to start searching? I think

I typically start asterisk with the safe_asterisk script: 22865 pts/3 S 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/sbin/safe_asterisk 22867 pts/3 S 0:31 asterisk -vvvg -c 22871 pts/3 S 0:00 mpg123 -q -s --mono -r 8000 -b 2048 For-You.mp3 for.m 22873 pts/3 S 0:00 mpg123 -q -s --mono -r 8000 -b 2048 For-You.mp3 for.m But when I do a "stop now" from the CLI, the mpg123 causes a

Hello- I have noticed that since i upgraded my kernel, asterisk spawns many copies (usually approximately 18) when starting up. It then runs fine, but there doesn't seem to be any reason for this behavior. I have tried moving between different kernel versions, and all but the stock fedora core 1 kernel exhibits the same behavior. I have verified running this with both safe_asterisk (as I

Hi we have a small problems. We have a Asterisk 1.6.1 old server with music on old. we have updated to AsteriskNow 11.4.0 and now, when we want play sound, we have a errors: -- Executing [334xx at Accueil_HNO:2] BackGround("SIP/SIP000005-0000000c", "Fermeture") in new stack [Jun 16 07:35:06] WARNING[7634][C-00000006]: file.c:701 ast_openstream_full: File Fermeture does

Hello everybody: This could be a stupid question, or may be not; I'm not sure 'cause I have not a very wide experience working with Asterisk, actually I just started last week. I need to make an IVR system work and I choose working with AGIs, written in Perl. The available documentation I've found show it as a very simple proccess, but it doesn't work for me... and I

Hi, I noticed that when dial terminates it does not return to the dialplan, and therefore can not execute any entry after Dial(). Is there any trick to overcome this limitation ? How I am supposed to handle the returned vales DIALEDTIME, ANSWEREDTIME if I can not execute anything after Dial()? I made a workaround with DeadAGI (below) but it is unreliable: if 2 calls end

Hi All, i have created one prepaid PERL AGI script to integrate asterisk users in our current Oracle Billing System. I am using $AGI->exec('Dial', $dialstr); in script after getting the MAX time out for the priticular call. But when the channels increase on my asterisk more than 50-60 asterisk get crashed and i am suspecting the cause is of AGI Script. because when i check ps on

Hello all. I'm new to asterisk and have been using and testing it for about a week now. My initial hope has been to use it as a sip<->h323 gateway to tie SIP & H323 based ip phones together with my Cisco AS5300 and Lucent MaxTNT/MVAM networks. I am currently running Asterisk 0.5.0 under Redhat 9 on a single PIII 800 with 256megs RAM. I have tried a couple CVS version from the past

I've been experiencing some crashes in Asterisk in the past few weeks. I haven't been able to find out why as gdb shows it's in a different function every time. But, in the meantime, I've been using safe_asterisk hoping that it would simply restart Asterisk by itself. It doesn't seem to do that. Whenever Asterisk crashed, the list of processes doesn't show asterisk or

Here's a strange one - when I run safe_asterisk on either of these distros, words that are colored blue or violet (but not red) turn up in Russian (and some other languages, I think). If I run asterisk with the same arguments (-vvvg -c) as safe_asterisk does, from the console, it's OK. If I run it in a Putty window it's OK. If I run asterisk -r from another console or from

Hello, I'm trying to figure out why the asterisk service starts fine, but when i try to connect by typing asterisk -r I get: Unable to connect to remote asterisk The service is running and lists under ps -ef as: asterisk -vvvg -c any help is appreciated

Hello, Just got a core dump, and thanks to somebody named Matt, I ran a gdb command, and this is the cusp of it: Reading symbols from /lib/libgcc_s.so.1...done.

Hi I am currently using 1.2.x and 1.4.x behind OpenSER. One of the things I do on INVITES is to re-authenticate the user from OpenSER. Then when the INVITE gets passed to Asterisk I capture the AUTH to a variable in the dialplan and pass to an AGI script. I am now trying to set the same thing up in 1.6 However because the argument delimter in 1.6 has changed from pipe to comma this breaks as the

Hi all, Recently I have raised up a bug (related to segmentation fault of asterisk process) due to a core dump generated by Asterisk under the following environment: CentOS release 5.7 (Final) Kernel 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue May 31 13:23:01 EDT 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Asterisk 1.8.23.0 DAHDI Version: 2.6.1 Echo Canceller: HWEC, OSLEC libpri-1.4.14-0 libpri-devel-1.4.14-0
