When I added
group=1
callgroup=1
pickupgroup=1

under each extension then it worked. I assume it is the pickupgroup=1 that did it. I will experiment to see.

I don't know if this will help you, but we had the same problem, we also
have Polycom 500s and I changed the pickupexten to *9 (anything other
than *8), because I read somewhere that for some reason Asterisk has a
problem with this feature and *8.  It worked for us.

No that's not problem.

On my current configs I get:

Oct  9 20:43:18 NOTICE[2990]: chan_sip.c:7455 handle_request: Nothing to

pick up

every time I try *8

Why does the phone think there is nothing to pickup?

Hi

I have Polycom 600s and 500s but I find that we need to dial *8 then
send.
If
we pickup then dial *8 the phone or Asterisk re-aranges it to 8*.
Likewise
with *97 and *98 foes to 9*7 and 9*8.

This might help.

Hello

I have a Junghanns ISDN BRI card for incoming calls and use SIP
Polycom
IP300 phones.

My config files look like this:

features.conf
pickupextn = *8

zapata.conf
context=frompstnisdn
group=1
callgroup=1
pickupgroup=1

I also edited sip.conf like this:
group=1
callgroup=1
pickupgroup=1


But on internal and incoming calls if I dial *8 from any phone I
cannot
pickup.  Do I need to add anything to extensions.conf?  do something
else.
I also tested with a Snom 190 and that cannot pickup using *8 either!

Angus
