similar to: CDR and Transfer, an asterisk scaring bug lasting from 1.4 version...

Hi All, PLEASE READ if you depend on Asterisk CDR's and support transfers. Apologies for the shout but I'm desperate to get others to agree Asterisk has a big problem with the CDR's that are generated for transfers. I can understand why not too many people are interested as transfers are complicated and messy. However for those of us having to support transfers and depending on

I've taken the liberty of starting a new thread to discuss the design of the Asterisk CDR mechanism. The discussion has been kindly initiated by murf putting together a proposal: http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/murf/RFCs. After reading the proposal I still don't think it's the right way to go. To my mind adding more channel variables increases the complexity in a situation

I have created an asterisk.org blog entry: http://www.asterisk.org/node/48358 to describe what I will shortly be committing to trunk to correct the weaknesses of CDRs, that asterisk users and developers have been complaining about for quite some time. Highlights: Restructuring the code and philosophy of CDRs. Plans to eliminate the ForkCDR() application Plans to create

Hello Asterisk Community, Is there a way to check in asterisk cdrs and extension forwarded? I mean, i'm calling to a ISDN number, wich goes to extension 8222, but this extension is forwarded to another one, the problem is that in CDRs i am able to see the the first step of the call, but never see the forwarded extension, how can i do that? Thanks!

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi guy's I've got an existing application which takes CDR information from a com port from an avaya switch, that we use for billing and accounting. Since the cost up upgrading the Index platform is extortionate, we're looking into alternatives and I've been told to come look at asterisk. First off, asterisk is excellent...

Hi Guys, I am having an issue that I have been able to replicate and I want to know if anyone else has this. Extension 100 dials an external number. He speaks for 5 minutes and then transfers the call to extension 200. Extension 200 speaks for 1 hour. When we go through the call logs we see the five minute call to the external number from extension 100. We then see a call from extension 100 to

Hi Steve, > .. I'll try to sort all this out, and then I'll attack this > problem. Hopefully, I get it all into svn before the next release of > 1.4...! Just wondering if any new CDR functionality made it into the 1.4.16.2 release? I have looked through the ChangeLog for the 1.4.15 and 1.4.16.2 releases but didn't spot anything to do with changes in CDR handling. I for one

Hello! Most are probably bored seeing another letter about this, but I've put in a fair amount work on a spec for rewriting the CDR system in Asterisk, and I have some questions: First, please look at what I've written so far: svn co http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/murf/RFCs and look at the file "CDRfix2.rfc.txt" in the RFCs dir. The spec SIGNIFICANTLY alters the way

Hi everyone, I am facing lots for problem with CDRs in 1.6 and above versions,its shows wrong records when I do transfer(caller side and calee side),callforward,call parking.Is the present CDRs in 1.6 is enough for Complete billing.?What I need to do to make it proper.Please help me on this. Thanks Nikhil

When I compare my total minutes on the bill from VoIP Innovations, to the number from our CDRs, I'm finding a smalish (3-4%) discrepancy in the count of minutes. I'm wondering why it's there. Are there different methods of counting the billable start or end point of a phone call? If it matters, I'm counting more termination minutes than they are and they're counting more

We have a billing system that depends on the CDRs. We had a guest that made a one minute call to a local cellphone, this call went out Zap channel through our channel bank. The CDR recorded a 200 minute call, but I checked with the Telco's records and it had terminated after one minute. What can cause this and what can I do to prevent it? -- Chris Mason NetConcepts (264) 497-5670 Fax:

Hello list, I have a problem with called ZAP channels making an attended-transfer or blind-xfer. Signalling at the phones is ok, but the CDR of Asterisk is wrong. At the moment there is a bristuffed Asterisk 1.2.18 running with bristuff-0.3.0-PRE-1y-g. Here is my dialplan, I simplified it a bit: [default] exten => 0123456789,1,Macro(dialpstn,${EXTEN}) [macro-dialpstn] exten =>

Hello, I'm working on an Asterisk configuration for a call center, and they bill based on the time spent talking to an agent, but not for any time spent waiting in a queue. The CDR information contains the entire duration of the call as billable seconds, including time spent waiting in the queue. I would like the billable seconds to only include the time spent actually talking to an agent.

Hello! I have been doing some tests with call transfers and I have been looking at the CDRs that Asterisk generates. Scenario 1: A calls B B answers and does a blind transfer to C (using # key) C answers and talks with A Scenario 2: A calls B B answers and does an attended transfer do C (using the phone's transfer key) C answers, B hangs up, and C talks with A For scenario 1, the CDR shows

Hi I have a question if there was a major change in CDR? Few days ago I have upgraded to 1.4.12.1 from 1.4.4 and something bizarre happened. After the upgrade I have no call details in the cdr table when the call did not go through because of for example: Unable to create the channel of type Sip - no route to destination. In such situation the call does not exist in the cdr table while it was

I would like to send the CDR records from all our machines around the world to a single database. But I need the hostname included with each record for monitoring purposes. Is there a better way than using the userfield and adding SetCDRUserfield for every call to set the userfield to the name of the host? Thanks...

Hi i've read this post http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-dev/2007-May/027666.html I just want to know if there are some upgrades... on 1.4 or 1.2. I'd like to store two records in the CDR instead of one, when a call is transferd. Is it possibile now? Thanks to all -- /*************/ nik600 https://sourceforge.net/projects/ccmanager

In my application, I am using AMI to run an Originate command between a channel and a dialplan application (NOT a context). In my case, the application I want to invoke is FastAGI. The Originate AMI command works correctly, but Asterisk generates a very short (0-1s) duration for the CDR that results from this call, regardless of the time spent running the FastAGI application. I want the CDR

hello everyone. I am running asterisk and all of my CDRs are in the default csv. the system is so limited to ram (only 256) and I cannot run MySQL or any other program to give CDRs a fancy view. at the moment the only other software running is nginx for a static webpage with guidance on the system. I do now want to move to sql or similar databases because the machine cannot handle it (I have
