Hi, We have a PRI Trunk (physical E1) and we are getting some rather weird and very isolocated problems. On outbound calls to specific numbers, it would seem to me that DTMF from the remote side is affecting the local asterisk system. Basically what happens: - We make a OUTBOUND call via the PSTN (PRI Trunk) to a remote System - Remote Answers, and converse - Remote sends DTMF on their site to

I just discover an "hidden" problem with AEL macro I want to have your feedback. If you use a macro to dial out, like &dialout(${EXTEN}), the leg extension will became ~~~~s~~~~ and if it happens you transfer the call, that will be the callerid appearing on the other phone display. I am just rewriting all the dialplan getting rid of the macro and using gosub, even if asterisk is

I just had a user report that they called out to someone on a cell phone this morning, and after a short conversation, the call was dropped/lost. The person on the cell phone says that this is very rare, and would not suspect the dropped/lost call to be on their side. I have looked at the asterisk/full log as thoroughly as I can, and have pasted the lines which seem relevant to that call below.

I'm trying to clarify my understand of gosub, macros and AEL. My understanding is that macros using the Macro() application, which is defined in extensions.conf by: [macro-foo] ... and called in extensions.conf with exten => _9NXXNXXXXXX.,n,Macro(fastbusy) is deprecated in favour of Gosub(). True so far? But then there are "macro"s defined in extensions.ael: macro foo() {

Hi people, I have a problem with some extensions. The calls are ended after 31/35 seconds, also, it depends on the number which I call. This is the log, but I've not been able to find something wrong... Any ideas?

Hi, I think this must be a bug introduced with 1.6.2.17.something. When I upgrade from asterisk-1.6.2.16.1 to asterisk-1.6.2.17.2 or 1.6.2.18, my AEL Dial() commands with the "U" options fail with the following error: [May 3 12:05:54] ERROR[6300] app_stack.c: Attempt to reach a non-existent destination for gosub: (Context:screen, Extension:s, Priority:1) Here are the segments

Hi! Since 1.6, when using AEL, macros are implemented using Gosub(). Is there workaround to have MACRO_EXTEN also in this case? regards Klaus PS: I know I could use something like context fromSip { 11 => &myMacro(${EXTEN}) } macro myMacro(MACRO_EXTEN) { } but isn't there some workaround to achieve compatibility with 1.4?

I am using Asterisk 11.17.1 with my program that uses AMI Originate calls to generate a bunch of calls for a callcenter. The PBX configuration is handled by FreePBX 2.11. I want to understand the dialplan behavior in order to figure out why the CDR(recordingfile) is blank on the CDR records despite the dialplan setting it. My program generates the calls by setting Channel=Local/NUMBERTODIAL at

>>> Nobody has any information or opinions on any of this? Personally, I don't think MACROS are going anywhere any time soon, so I have not bothered looking into a substitution. As for ael; I've never used it. Doug

Hi, I have recently run into the problem with macro implementation in AEL in Asterisk 1.6. I have some older AEL dialplan which runs on 1.4 but it does not on 1.6 and I'm not sure how to solve this correctly. Let me explain... For example, in Asterisk 1.4 I have a macro like this: macro read_digits(digits) { Set(playlist=${SHELL(${PYTHON} ${SCRIPTS}/read_digits.py

Hi List, When doing 'ael reload' on two servers, which are setup with asterisk 1.4.22 and 1.4.35 respectively, I am getting multiple lines of this strange error: ERROR[15483]: ael.flex:647 ael_yylex: Unhandled char(s): On three other servers with same versions of asterisk, i.e. 1.4.22, I don't see this error. Number of lines of the error are the same as the number of lines of the

Hello, I am having an issue whereby calls are being dropped randomly. I have an ISDN 30 E1 line going into a Wildcard TE220 (4th Gen). My Asterisk install is based on Trixbox 2.0. However, I have updated the source code to the following. The Asterisk release is asterisk-1.2.20. Zaptel release is zaptel-1.2.18. And libpri release is libpri-1.2.4. I have include an extract from the Asterisk log

Hi, according to discussion on asterisk IRC, where people said, that macros will be depracated, I tried to migrate from macros to contexts and Gosub but if I try to use gosub in extensions.ael, ael compiler complains, that I shouln't use Gosub app, but I can't find ael keyword, that will be Gosub equivalent, or can I ignore this ael warnings? thanks PJ LOG: lev:3 file:pval.c

Hi, I'm trying to use ChanIsAvail to build a resilient 'dialout' macro. The logic is simple; try Zap/g1 (a group of two E1s), and if that fails, try locating a channel via DUNDi. Here's a massively cut down version to illustrate the problem I'm having. macro dialout ( dest ) { ChanIsAvail(Zap/g1); noop(Value of AVAILCHAN is ${AVAILCHAN});

Hi list! I have this configuration for sending T38 faxes to my T38 fax termination provider: T38modem --> hylafax --> Asterisk-SIP-Extension --> T38 termination provider --> T.30 termination to PSTN We are experiencing 2 problems with this (if you want configuration files, it won't be a problem, just tell me): 1. T38 termination provider receives faxes at 2400 bpps from our

Hello-- It's been a while since I wrote any updates about AEL/AEL2 to the users list, and I thought it might be worthwhile to update everyone on what is going on in respects to AEL. What the heck is AEL? The Asterisk Extension Language. A higher level language for extensions.conf, which will appear in the config file, extensions.ael, in the /etc/asterisk/ (or equiv) directory. It provides

Hi I'm using a macro to dial in a AEL dialplan. The problem is the macro do not set the field CDR(dst), showing only ~~s~~. I tried various configurations, but without solutions. This is the macro: macro dial-out(destno,dialstring,route_descr,interno) { __TRANSFER_CONTEXT=ipbx; if(${interno} = 1) { Set(__PICKUPMARK=${destno}); if(${ODBC_verify_user(${CALLERID(num)})} > 0) { t = tT; }

Hi to all, i'm wondering to realize a dynamic macro that can take the number of extensions to RING,the ring type and all the parameter in a dynamic way. I have done this code to test it: macro pbx-ring-group-ael(pbx_id,num_int,ring_type,timeout,ext_string) { //; pbx_id = Id of PBX in the DB //; num_int = Quantity of extensions to ring //; ring_type = Kind of RING (C=contemporaneous
