In Asterisk 1.8, I used the following line in extensions.conf to allow me to pass "*82" in front of a dialed number, to disable the callerid block that's normally on that POTS line:
; disable callerid block exten => _*82.,1,Dial(${POTS}/${EXTEN}) But this seems to have stopped working when I upgraded to Asterisk 11.7. I get the following debug output, with a "no call pickup possible" message as soon as I press the '8': [Feb 12 18:17:39] -- Starting simple switch on 'DAHDI/2-1' [Feb 12 18:17:39] DEBUG[2339]: devicestate.c:442 devstate_event: device 'DAHDI/2' state '2' [Feb 12 18:17:42] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: sig_analog.c:1600 analog_handle_dtmf: Begin DTMF digit: 0x2A '*' on DAHDI/2-1 [Feb 12 18:17:42] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: chan_dahdi.c:2145 my_handle_dtmf: Begin DTMF digit: 0x2A '*' on DAHDI/2-1 [Feb 12 18:17:42] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: sig_analog.c:1600 analog_handle_dtmf: End DTMF digit: 0x2A '*' on DAHDI/2-1 [Feb 12 18:17:42] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: chan_dahdi.c:2145 my_handle_dtmf: End DTMF digit: 0x2A '*' on DAHDI/2-1 [Feb 12 18:17:42] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: sig_analog.c:2121 __analog_ss_thread: waitfordigit returned '*' (42), timeout = 0 [Feb 12 18:17:44] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: sig_analog.c:1600 analog_handle_dtmf: Begin DTMF digit: 0x38 '8' on DAHDI/2-1 [Feb 12 18:17:44] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: chan_dahdi.c:2145 my_handle_dtmf: Begin DTMF digit: 0x38 '8' on DAHDI/2-1 [Feb 12 18:17:44] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: sig_analog.c:1600 analog_handle_dtmf: End DTMF digit: 0x38 '8' on DAHDI/2-1 [Feb 12 18:17:44] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: chan_dahdi.c:2145 my_handle_dtmf: End DTMF digit: 0x38 '8' on DAHDI/2-1 [Feb 12 18:17:44] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: sig_analog.c:2121 __analog_ss_thread: waitfordigit returned '8' (56), timeout = 0 [Feb 12 18:17:44] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: chan_dahdi.c:5075 dahdi_enable_ec: Enabled echo cancellation on channel 2 [Feb 12 18:17:44] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: features.c:7880 ast_pickup_call: pickup attempt by DAHDI/2-1 [Feb 12 18:17:44] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: features.c:7900 ast_pickup_call: No call pickup possible... for DAHDI/2-1 [Feb 12 18:17:44] DEBUG[5898][C-0000000e]: sig_analog.c:2211 __analog_ss_thread: No call pickup possible... and then a busy signal. I didn't pay much attention to the differences between Asterisk 1.8 and 11.7 since everything seemed to still work ... Can someone point me in the right direction? -- Eric Cooper e c c @ c m u . e d u -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
