similar to: CID when using WaitExten?

Is there any known reason that the DISA() routine should behave differently than WaitExten() as far as recognizing DTMF tones? If not, I suspect there's a bug here. Try it yourself--two DID's on our PRI, numbers below let you test each routine: It is my observation that some setups/phones DO and some DO NOT express this variance. --I could not show any variance on a sprint mobile phone

I am trying to setup an interactive menu where a caller hits the main menu and can then dial an extension. As far as I can tell the "Waitexten" app is failing to read 3 digits and just reading the first and then announcing that it is invalid since all extensions are 3 digits. How do I make Waitexten wait for 3 digits? I have setup the extension "100" for users to reach the

Asterisk segfaulted on me the other day; how do I tell it to generate a core file so -- if it happens again -- I can attempt to debug? I looked in the obvious places in "make menuconfig" and didn't see anything appropriate.

I got dragged away from Asterisk (somebody made me an offer I couldn't refuse for system administration), but I'm thinking about seeing if I can't get it deployed at my new employer. Regardless, there are two things about older voicemail that used to annoy me: - Dial by name. Has anyone made it so it can be first or last? - Jump to voicemail; you used to have to actually dial the

Hey, all. Just added an analog card to our dual-T1 system... and clearly I'm doing something wrong. Less interested in having the specifics pointed out than in finding out how/why certain things work. So, really, three things: * What the bloody Hell is the difference between dahdi-channels.conf and chan_dahdi.conf? (And who thought it was a good idea to have two files with,

Hello list, I've got a problem (maybe only a problem of understanding how * works) with IAX and WaitExten. To simplify the problem I've brought it down to the following scenario: - 3 Asterisk Server A,B and C (central). - A and B both register with C. Now I want to be able to dial an extension at A to become connected to C and there I want to dial an extension to become connected to B.

I'm a bit confused about how WaitExten works. I assumed that when it returns 0, the next priority in the extension would be executed, but that doesn't seem to be the case. When I get to WaitExten and enter extension 8, it plays the message, then Waits another 10 seconds and times out. [local] exten => s,1,Wait,1 ; Wait a second, just for fun exten =>

Hi The first step I have to go through when users call into our IVR is to handle the case where users' PBX hides their CID number. In that case, I need to have them type their phone number (ten digits). OTOH, those who call without hiding their CID number are sent directly to the main menu. How would I go about prompting users for their phone number? Here's what I have at this point:

Hi, I have the problem that WaitExten is not responding to key presses. Here are the sections from my extensions.conf: [globals] incoming_call=0 menu=0 announce=0 [internal] exten => 777,1,Goto(hotline,${EXTEN},1) [hotline] exten => _X.,1,Set(CALLERID(name)=Hotline) exten => _X.,n,Set(original_extension=${EXTEN}) exten => _X.,n,GotoIf($[${announce}=1]?4:10) exten =>

Hey, all. I'm planning on migrating a W2K3 server to a Linux solution. It needs to be AD-aware, support ACLs, etc. This isn't something I'm doing Right Now(tm), so I can wait a little bit. A couple questions: 1) Are there any known issues with BTRFS? 2) Which version of Samba would be most appropriate for this? 3) AD integration: I've never really done it (with success); any

All: Some of the people who dial into to our system will press the pound key when entering an extension for the directory key. When waitexten gets that, I get an error messages as, for example 123# doesn't match any extension. I was going to use ${EXTEN} to just use the first three numbers, but I'm not sure how to use this with WaitExten. so I have exten =>

Hey, all. Just wondering if there's a GUI out there -- preferably OSS, but I'll take what-have-you -- that a) can run on an Ubuntu/Debian box, and b) allows a receptionist to see what calls are in-process, and forward calls from their phone to somewhere else.

Hey, all. I quoted a customer about $100 for some cheap SIP phones. I was planning on using the BT-102's, but he called said they look like "Princess phones," and I have to admit that he has a point. Some of the other inexpensive phones look decent, but (for example) the SPA-841's wiki entry says the remote end gets a lot of static. Since it'll be being used from a noisy

Hello, I have another little problem with my ZAPs channels, in fact, when I received a call, I heard no sound while in the CLI, sound is played: -- Starting simple switch on 'Zap/4-1' -- Executing [s at from-zaptel:1] Answer("Zap/4-1", "") in new stack -- Executing [s at from-zaptel:2] BackGround("Zap/4-1", "hello-world") in new stack --

I am trying to use a WaitExten in a Macro, and I am finding that the extension which is pressed ends up in context of the calling context and not in the Macro. How do you do a WaitExten in a Macro? Tony Plack

Hello, I have a problem of DTMF duplication. I receive call from my provider with SIP protocol. These calls pass through an interactive voice menu, using the application Waitexten to enter a client code. The menu works fine, but sometimes I have DTMF duplication that prevent proper code entry. All DTMF come twice. my sip.conf ----------- [general] context=default allowguest=no

I'd *really* like to be able to have a call ring three different cell phones; then, if someone answers, they have to somehow acknowledge the call for it to be directed to them. That way, if one of the phones is off, or out of range, it doesn't go straight to that phone's voicemail. Asterisk 1.4 -- though I could probably upgrade. Suggestions on how to make this happen? Thanks!

Hi I have a situation where I want to be able to count how many times a caller goes round a loop of "Please hold...", "please continue to hold". I have found an example on voip-info but I can't get it to work. Not sure if I've got some syntax wrong somewhere? All that happens at the moment, is I hit is the playback of "som-debug" at 9999. Any ideas would

I've googled to no avail, I'm afraid. Thanks! -Ken -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
