Unfortunately, new contexts don't seem to show up in "real time". I solved this in RAGUI by putting #exec statements in the extensions.cong file that scan the extensions table and generate the proper contexts. However, you still have to do a reload to get the contexts to be available in Asterisk. Here is an example: in extensions.conf #exec /opt/pointcall/asterisk/scripts/load_extensions.rb I used Ruby, but it could be Perl , PHP or whatever load_extensions.rb #!/usr/local/bin/ruby # require 'mysql' hostname = "host" username = "user" password = "pass" database = "rtdb" my = Mysql.new(hostname, username, password, database) res = my.query("SELECT DISTINCT context FROM extensions ORDER by context") # res.each do |row| context = row[0] print "\n" print '[' + context + "]\n" print "Switch => Realtime/" + context + "\n" end Thanks, Mike _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
