If you are using Windows to generate the .call files, make sure they are in Unix format (LF only at EOL, not CR+LF) - Notepad makes bad Unix files. Use Crimson Editor www.crimsoneditor.com to make the file, and click Document > File Format > Unix Format.
I ran into this same problem, and it turns out my Asterisk install would not use Windows-formatted text files, it would just ignore them and delete them. -----Original Message----- From: Lee [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 19, 2006 11:58 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: SPAM-LOW: Re: [asterisk-users] .Call files do not seem to work Tzafrir Cohen wrote: > On Tue, Dec 19, 2006 at 12:44:39PM -0500, Lee wrote: >>> In the CLI: >>> >>> sip show peer axVoice >>> show dialplan main_menu >>> set verbose 3 >>> >>> >>> Then drop the call file >>> >>> What is the CLI trace of the above? >>> >> Hi, thanks for responding.

Write to it? > Hi, As I mentioned above, the action of dropping a .call into the /outgoing directory did not produce any CLI output. I did this through 2 putty sessions. The first, we setup to watch the CLI output and the second was to use the commandline to move the .call into the /outgoing directory. Asterisk must be doing *something* with the file (if just deleting it) because if I check the /outgoing directory after I move the file, there is no file there. It's deleted. -- Warm Regards, Lee _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
