Hi, I have a Intel Xeon Dual Core server, with 3 GB RAM, running Centos 5.0, Asterisk 1.4.4 and mysql 5.0. It is a kinda high-traffic box, with about 60 concurrent calls.

Hi all, While trying to track down a T.38 issue, I came across a series of log entries like this: ============================================================================ [Jan 26 10:23:31] WARNING[32508]: udptl.c:948 ast_udptl_new_with_bindaddr: Unable to allocate socket: Too many open files [Jan 26 10:23:31] ERROR[32508]: acl.c:488 ast_ouraddrfor: Cannot create socket

Hi everyone, I am running into wall today with simultaneous call limits. I have two Asterisk machines (fast 3GHz C2D with 2GB of ram). I tried to create a lot of sip calls from one machine to the other by issuing AMI Originate commands to one machine. The machine that makes calls plays a message (demo-intruct) upon the other machine answer. The machine receives the calls just waits for 40 seconds

Hi, I am taking over an asterisk system from another person and having an issue where a sip trunk is restricting the outgoing codecs to just g.729 I am dialing in from a Cisco 7960. The Invite from the Cisco has the folowing M line: m=audio 17022 RTP/AVP 18 0 8 101. So it is allowing g.729, ulaw and alaw. Asterisk is tandeming the call out over a SIP trunk sip.conf tandem trunk config:

Let's say I have two devices configured and the follow call scenarios occur. [100] disallow=all allow=g722&ulaw Polycom phone with g722,ulaw,alaw,g729 [101] disallow=all allow=ulaw Polycom phone with g722,ulaw,alaw,g729 101 dials 100 -> ulaw to ulaw is chosen 100 dials 101 -> g722 to ulaw is chosen Ideally when 100 dials 101 ulaw would be chosen since it is the common format.

Hey Guys, Whenever i calling any extension i am getting following WARNING messages do you have any idea they coming from where? -Satish shirley*CLI> == Using SIP RTP CoS mark 5 -- Executing [7623 at from-sip:1] Macro("SIP/7527-00000008", "stdexten,7623,sip/7623&sip/7624") in new stack -- Executing [s at macro-stdexten:1] Dial("SIP/7527-00000008",

I am integrating a new server (Asterisk 1.8.2.3, DAHDI 2.4.0) with VOIP only trunks, and this server only has soft phones. When I dial an extension and the phone is not registered, I don't get any ring or progress indications, and eventually the Dial() times out and drops into voicemail (as expected).

I don't understand the reasoning here so could somebody please help me out? chan_h323 is causing a segmentation fault when trying to connect a call. I tracked the problem back to chan_h323.c in the oh323_new() function. the code is: tmp = ast_channel_alloc( 1 ); After this point, tmp->pvt is not allocated (null pointer). HOWEVER, in the ast_channel_alloc() function right before the
