Just a shot in the dark... but have you tried Answer() before Playback()? Josh McAllister

I have an outbound route named "foo", with dial pattern "5|.", with the only entry in trunk sequence being "IAX2/foo". I have an X-lite local extension, on which I can dial 51<10 digit ph#>, and asterisk will call out over foo and the phone at <10 digit ph#> will ring. This rules out a lot of possible problems. extensions.conf includes this: [outgoingtest] exten => s,1,Playback(custom/testmsg) exten => s,2,Wait(1) exten => s,3,Hangup And yes, asterisk has been restarted since the last time any config files were modified. I have a test message at /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/custom/testmsg.gsm If I make the file "1.call" containing: Channel: IAX2/foo MaxRetries: 1 RetryTime: 5 WaitTime: 10 Context: outgoingtest Extension: 1<10 digit ph#> Priority: 1 and copy it to /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing/ then the phone doesn't ring, but this shows up on the asterisk console: -- Attempting call on IAX2/foo for 1<10 digit ph#>@outgoingtest:1 (Retry 1) -- Hungup 'IAX2/foo-7' -- Attempting call on IAX2/foo for 1<10 digit ph#>@outgoingtest:1 (Retry 2) -- Hungup 'IAX2/foo-8' The "foo-7" and "foo-8" on the console are different (numbers anywhere from 1 to 9) every time I try copying the file to outgoing. I tried using extension 51<10 digit ph#> instead of 1<10 digit ph#> in 1.call, but that didn't work either. Why is it failing? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
