Re: [Asterisk-Users] Caller-ID is being sent wrong. How to fix it?

2004-02-07 Thread William Suffill
u probably should upgrade to 0.7.2 but as far as the caller id that
would be from your sip.conf being set improperly  add to your sip.conf
callerid=Caller Name # for each sip entry and that should clear it
up.

 I'm running Asterisk 0.5.0 and using Cisco 7960 phones in a sip only

 Say for example extension 100 calls extension 200.  200 sees 100 as the 
 name but 200 as the number.  IE, it gets its own number as the supposed 
 CLID of the calling party.
 
 This is flat out wrong.  Am I doing something wrong or is Asterisk just 
 terribly broken with respect to sending caller ID information properly?
 
 Is this something that only effects Cisco phones?

[Asterisk-Users] IAX Softphone Errors

2004-02-07 Thread William Suffill
I've been considering deploying an IAX softphone for some remote users
that want to interface with my PBX. It seems as though IAXcomm just
prints that it was rejected if they dial an extension unassigned on the
PBX. Firefly on the other hand crashes if you dial an extension that
doesn't atleast exist in the dialplan. I can't have that of course so I
added a catch all  group of extentions so if they dial any extension not
defined prior it will just play invalid. I was wonder if anyone had any
cleaner method to do this other than  exten = _X,1,Macro(invalid).
I wrote 12 variations to cover all the possible conditions I could think
of but a program should crash over such an issue. I get a memory reading
error with Firefly if I dial a # not defined in the context that my iax
acc is  part of. I noticed the Firefly network kept this from becoming
an issue by making their dialplan give some feedback on all #'s dialed

I have few boxes running it with no major problems. 
Ztdummy will not work becaause uml does not have real usb support.
Zaprtc could work if you play with host kernel. (I have not had time to

I have installed G729 into it as well. Works great. :)

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Interrupted musiconhold sound when silence suppression is enabled

2004-02-07 Thread Vic Cross
Hi,

On Fri, 6 Feb 2004, Andres wrote:

 * uses the incoming RTP Stream as a timing source for sending its 
 outgoing Stream..  If the incoming stream is interrupted due to silence 
 suppression then musiconhold will be choppy.  So in conclusion, you 
 cannot use silence suppresion.

I guess this explains why the music-on-hold goes totally silent (and
fast-forwards) when I hit the microphone mute button on my 7960...?

Could this be tied to zaptel timing instead (like meet-me)?


Cheers,

I've got a Snom 100 and am running the 2.03o SIP code. Basically I'm

haven't downgraded it to see if an earlier release makes a difference

Just wondering if anyone can provide some guidance as to what the best
release of code for this phone may be.

[Asterisk-Users] play_and_record: No audio available

2004-02-07 Thread Ryan Courtnage
Hello all,

I have just installed the latest Asterisk csv on Slackware 9.1.

I've configured the system using the example config in OnLamp's 
Asterisk: A Bare-Bones VoIP Example tutorial.  
[http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2003/07/03/asterisk.html?page=1]

Using X-Lite SIP client on Mac OS X

When trying to leave a voicemail on one of the extensions, the Asterisk 
console reports:

Feb  7 23:26:17 WARNING[409618]: app_voicemail.c:1200 play_and_record: 
No audio available on SIP/2001-dc12??

and the resulting .wav file in /var/spool/asterisk is empty/invalid.

I did find a thread (via google) that described someone with the same 
problem, who rectified it by re-installing.  I've reinstalled, but to 
no avail.

Can someone please point me in the right direction to troubleshoot this?
Thanks
Ryan

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Caller-ID is being sent wrong. How to fix it?

2004-02-07 Thread John Fraizer
Hi William,

Thanks for the reply.  I don't understand why that information should have 
to be set in sip.conf.  It is already known.  If I set the following on an 
extension:

exten = 100,1,SetCallerID(${CALLERIDNUM})

I can see that the information is correct:

-- Executing SetCallerID(SIP/228-a94f, 228) in new stack
-- Executing Dial(SIP/228-a94f, SIP/100|20) in new stack
-- Called 100
But, the number when extension 100 rings, it gets 100 as the number 
portion of the caller ID information.

But after blasting my way through the email, I am out of time and energy.
Anyone have any filters they use on this list that may help me out.
I have never set up any email filters.
I run on a sun/sparc solaris 9 and use mozilla to read my email.
A linux solution should be easy to get working on solaris.

Do you have call progress turned on in zapata.conf ?  If so, try turning
it back off.  I had tried turning it on and DTMF sent from my sip phones
wasn't recognized anymore.

Also, it is the same syntax for the SetCallerID() application.

The way you had it:

Sets the string portion to 200 and leaves the number portion null.

The null number portion is what is causing you trouble.

You are not setting the caller ID properly...

callerid = string portion number portion

If you want no string portion, then:

callerid =  number portion

Um, yes I am setting the caller ID right.  Asterisk isn't sending the invite 
message properly.

[100]
callerid= test name 1234
type=friend

The test name part gets sent but, like I said, if extension 100 calls 
extension 228, the phone at 228 sees the caller-ID as test name 
228.

This happens with Asterisk 0.5 and Asterisk 0.7.2 both.

[Asterisk-Users] All incoming Zap calls getting picked up as FAX calls!

2004-02-07 Thread Darren Martz
There was a posting on this in December, but I didn't see this resolved -
now I'm experiencing the same thing.

 

I recently checked out asterisk using the 1.0 label as the asterisk.org now
states. Perhaps the label is not kept current??

 

No matter, what I'm experiencing is every incoming call on a Zap channel is
immediately assumed to be a fax.

 

I checked the bugs database and didn't see anything substantial related to
incoming faxes.

 

Any suggestions?

[Asterisk-Users] central voicemail with remote offices

2004-02-07 Thread Darren Martz
I'm having trouble figuring this dialplan out. I have a central asterisk box
that has voicemail and the auto attendant for incoming calls. Things get
complex when I add three remote offices connected only through the Internet.
The locals seem easy enough to handle. Redirecting through _2[0-2]N to
another office makes sense.

 

Where I'm having trouble is supporting a central voicemail system. 

 

If headoffice is where I want all the voicemail to reside, and an outside
caller attempts a local. The voicemail statement is easy, its on the same
server. 

 

But when someone from office-a calls someone in office-b, unless the call is
routed through headoffice I can't see an easy way of redirecting for
voicemail.  

 

Or if someone in office-a calls someone in the same office, how can I
redirect the voicemail back to headoffice? 

 

And to further the madness, if my phone is in office-a, is there a way to
know I have voicemail waiting for me at headoffice?

 

I would like to do this because I expect the remote offices to have the
occasional Internet connectivity troubles, but I don't expect our customers
to care. They will still call the headoffice and attempt to contact local
1234.

 

Perhaps I'm looking at this problem the wrong way.

 

Has anyone been faced with a similar situation???

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Caller-ID is being sent wrong. How to fix it?

2004-02-07 Thread John Fraizer
I just set up an X-Lite client on extension  and it shows the same 
behavior.

Further information:

When I call the X-Lite extension  from my Cisco 7960 (extension 100), 
I get the following in the recent calls list:

Name: Test
SIPURL: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ProxyID: ENTERZONE
The sip.conf entry for extension 100 is:

[100]
callerid=Test 100
type=friend
username=100
secret=secret
host=dynamic
fromuser=100
mailbox=100
context=allaccess
canreinvite=yes
dtmfmode=rfc2833
nat=yes
Asterisk is sending the name portion of the callerID properly but, the 
number portion is obviously wrong as you can see from the SIPURL that is 
saved by X-Lite in the recent received calls list.

As I have been stating, it is sending the CALLED number and not the 
calling number.  This is NOT the proper behavior and as a result, it is 
hosing caller ID.  I could really not care any less about what name shows 
up.  The sipurl that called has to be right though, otherwise callerid is 
worthless.

It doesn't do any good to look at your missed calls list and have every 
one of them show YOUR phone number.

If your asterisk server does not do this, please do me the favor of setting 
up two test extensions for me so I can try to figure out what is wrong 
here.  You can lock me in a context where I can only call from one test 
extension to another.  I just need to be able to verify what is going on so 
I can either get it corrected in my config (I don't think I have anything 
wrong) or get it acknowledged as a bug in Asterisk.

Thanks,

John

I guess this explains why the music-on-hold goes totally silent (and
fast-forwards) when I hit the microphone mute button on my 7960...?
Could this be tied to zaptel timing instead (like meet-me)?

 

Probably, but I don't think the developers are eager the code it.  This 
has been discussed in great length before.  Check the archives.

I found the line, and uncommented it as you recommended. That worked -
thanks!!

As best I can tell, the problem still exists in the 1.0 stable code base.

The good news is that I found a related bug 817 on the subject, although the
fix has not made it to cvs yet. It's only known on this list and in the bugs

 OK.  I don't know what the deal is.  Works fine on your server.  Doesn't on
 mine.

 That is so strange.

my version string is: CVS-01/31/04-04:24:34

Also, I noticed that your sip.conf entries are a bit different than mine.

I am curious if canreinvite=no would change your situation.

Remove fromuser= from your SIP statements.  This overrides the caller-id

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] IAX Softphone Errors


 I've been considering deploying an IAX softphone for some remote users
 that want to interface with my PBX. It seems as though IAXcomm just
 prints that it was rejected if they dial an extension unassigned on the
 PBX. Firefly on the other hand crashes if you dial an extension that
 doesn't atleast exist in the dialplan. I can't have that of course so I
 added a catch all  group of extentions so if they dial any extension not
 defined prior it will just play invalid. I was wonder if anyone had any
 cleaner method to do this other than  exten = _X,1,Macro(invalid).
 I wrote 12 variations to cover all the possible conditions I could think
 of but a program should crash over such an issue. I get a memory reading
 error with Firefly if I dial a # not defined in the context that my iax
 acc is  part of. I noticed the Firefly network kept this from becoming
 an issue by making their dialplan give some feedback on all #'s dialed

[Asterisk-Users] Snom 200 MWI Button

2004-02-07 Thread Paul Oster



I'm trying to get the MWI button to work with my 
Asterisk configuration. The snom is accepting and responding to the 
Message indications from *, but when I press the MWI button, it is dialing my 
extension (the one with the voice mail on it).

I'm wondering if there is a way to specify what 
extension to dial to check email in the configuration, either the phone, or * 
itself.

Asterisk Version 1/30/2003 checked out and compiled 
this evening
Snom Version 2.03o (most recent 
auto-update)

Any help would be greatly appreciated. At one 
point Mark had talked about adding a voicemail= directive in sip.conf on the 
mailing list at one point, however grepping the code doesn't reveal a feature 
like that at this time.

Anyone have success in getting the MWI button to 
work on Snoms? If so I would LOVE to hear from you.

Paul M. Oster



Re: [Asterisk-Users] s/asterisk mailinglists/asterisk forum/g ?

2004-02-07 Thread Jamie P
Here is a suggestion for people interested in setting up a web based
interface to the asterisk email list. Use fud forum :

http://fud.prohost.org/

This is a forum system that can archive an email lists messages for easy
searching and a nice web interface and it can be set up to allow posting of
messages through the forum altough this may be undesirable. It is highly
configurable.

Fudforum if properly configured seems to offer a good way to improve access
to an email list.

I guess the question is whether the core users of this list want to improve
access or whether they want to keep access limited to people who are at
least committed enough to set up there email clients correctly which would
be fair enough.

now that the lists are at 2-300 email messages a day, perhaps it's time

This has been brought up several times and it's been shot down every single 
time.  This time is no different.

Web forums will not be viewed by the people who are actively developing 
asterisk since they're such a colossal waste of time, energy and bandwidth.  
It's so much harder to find info on a forum than it is on a mailing list -- 
hideous colour schemes, animated emoticons, l33t sp34k, broken PHP and 
database backends -- that's just the start.  So, like most other web 
forums, they will inevitably stagnate into a breeding ground for newbies 
and fill with messages -- nay /posts/ -- about how asterisk sucks ass 
because nobody can get any help.

These lists are searchable, that too has been brought up many times, and 
someone even wrote a search app that lets you do fuzzy matching and other 
neat tricks.  I don't have the URL handy, but it should be in the archives 
for -users within the last 30 days.

Andrew

I don't like the idea of forums.  Personally, I have yet to see a forum
that I consider useful.  All too often forums are slow, difficult to
search and waste too much time throughout the day polling for new posts.

I think a decent mail list archive with searching capabilities and
sortable by date/thread/author should be fine.  If the traffic is too
much for you then unsubscribe and scan the archives from time to time.

I'm involved with a few organizations that spent considerable time,
effort and $$ setting up and managing forums only to find they are
consistently under-utilized.

I vote against forums.

Ditto. I hate forums. They are annoying.
