Re: [asterisk-users] Followme Killing Asterisk
Alright for anyone who ever runs into this in the future, the problem seems
to be resolved by
a) removing the lines Set(Channel(language)=) before the Dial and
possibly
b) using the flags 'dI' with followme app
I guess when using Followme, just don't try and set any another variables
that affect the channel ...after calling it and before the Dial
happens...might work before it.

From your discussion below, it sounds like the real problem is the
Asterisk crashing.
So, as a first step to solving **that** problem, make sure asterisk is
compiled with debug
flags, dumps another core file, and then you do the gdb asterisk
corefilename, and
get a stack trace. That should give us some idea of what happened.
Thanks for the note Steve. It doesn't sound like there's tremendously
wrong that I'm doing as far s the configuration is concerned then? and it
won't be too surprising since the configuration of Followme is quite simple
assuming the complexities are all handled by the Followme app.
I tried a whole lot of options that made sense as Dial options that the
Local channel dial from Followme is being hooked into but it appears
that, the cause of the crash is most likely that Followme:
1. Is looking for something to do; bill, log or something after it
returns from Dial/call termination but not finding it. I tried using
Answer(nocdr) at the time the call on the DID is being answered but that
didn't help. I have also tried the 'g', 'c', 'C', 'I' and 'i' etc options
with the Dial but they don't help either. I had real hopes in the 'g'
option to tell it to proceed with the dial plan where I was simply making
it return a couple of call status related variables and then just Hangup,
but regardless of the 'calling' or the called party hanging up, these
number get printed, which means that despite the 'g' option, the call does
NOT proceed with the normal/rest of the dialplan
2. Maybe Followme is not built for this purpose where the caller is
unknown (which it would be in most cases) but at least the called party
is usually known AND is a subscriber/registered user of the system who is
then using the Followme feature to find them when they don't answer their
PBX registered phone. What I'm doing calling from outside, having the
system answer the call, allow the caller to put in a number and then
calling those numbers associated with that extension if it's a Followme
extension but the extension itself isn't a registered user in sip.conf or
users.conf, and maybe followme app has some procedures it needs to run
through as a matter of housekeeping (i.e. accounting, billing, logging etc)
that it's not finding info for
Will do a gdb and see what I can find...I'm not a developer so I may not
be able to pick up a lot from the stack-trace but will pastebin it and see
if one of the community/developer members can figure out why it's taking a
dump

I have been playing with Local channels over the weekend, and as cool as

The ONLY time it gets anywhere is if I use the 'l' option with Followme
application.
In that case, the call connect and I can have a conversation but the

it may be something to do with the after return to handle next steps but

Have tried this with 10.3.0 and 10.11.1. I noticed new changes have been
made in v11...but this should work
How does this work?? Do I need fancy options with the Dial command doing
GoSub and what not? and Why does it insist on playing all these prompts I
have commented them all out from followme.conf, but it's still looking to
play them
