RE: [asterisk-users] Server redundancy
Asterisk realtime hardly provides redundancy. 1. There's no support for realtime SIP where multiple Asterisk systems can reference the same MySQL database for SIP peers. Ask Kevin Fleming about this. It's known not to work. 2. The IP address of the MySQL server is hard coded into the Asterisk config files. In the event of a database failure, Asterisk fails as well. You need to build redundancy into MySQL with a primary and seconday server, and something that can monitor MySQL system, network, and application and then transparently (to Asterisk, because it can't do it itself) switch IP's in the event of failure. 3. Other stuff I can't recollect right now because I am tired. -Original Message- From: RR [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Mon 7/10/2006 9:16 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Cc: Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Server redundancy Alejandro, doesn't sound like you've read up or done research on ARA (Asterisk Realtime Architecture)? That's what allows you to build asterisk server clusters which draw upon configs either for individual config files OR entire family of processes froma common database (which can then be made redundant/clustered). All examples on the net are based on using MySQL But it's possible to use other drivers in conjunction with the ODBC engine that Asterisk uses to integrate oracle and/or MSSQL to store CDRs and Voicemail. These two can also be stored on a common clustered file system such as GFS or PVFS etc. So all in all, you can deploy ARA along with RedHat CSGFS (built from source, of course) and come up with a fully redundant realtime asterisk cluster.

RE: [asterisk-users] Server redundancy
DUNDi doesn't provide good redundancy for phone registrations. Each phone is only registered on a single, primary Asterisk system. In the event that the primary system for a given phone becomes available, the phone will not re-register until it's registraiton expirey period, on it's secondary Asterisk system. During this time, the phone cannot be reached. You can cut the phone registration period right down, to some small period of time, say 5min, but is that acceptible? Also, keep in mind that the lower the registration period, the greater the number of registrations, and therefore the greater the network traffic, and hence, the load on each Asterisk system. Doug. -Original Message- From: RR [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Mon 7/10/2006 10:09 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Cc: Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Server redundancy unplug, thanks for pointing that out as well as opposed to or in complement with ARA where you can either implement DUNDi between clusters of Asterisk servers or have a redundant pair of DUNDi lookup servers (just like DNS) somewhere remote to the local asterisk servers. DUNDi is a p2p IAX based protocol to allow for looking up contact information for a particular registered extension. So in ARA you can really store all extension based information in the common database for servers that are local to your network i.e. perhaps on the same private network or even the same VLAN. Then implement DUNDi between asterisk servers that are remote to your location and in their own private network using their own database. Not sure the level of reliability one can expect using the public internet for DUNDi look-ups from a server on the other end of the world but in theory it might be do-able. So if you can't find an extension within your local database, you perform the DUNDi lookup and find it in your remote servers. I'm sure the gurus on the list might have plenty to say on this :) ___ --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

Yes, we tried to do the same thing. We wanted our Asterisk system to be multi-homed. Turned out to be a dissapointing limitation of Asterisk.

Interesting points on both messages 1) as far as multiple asterisk servers talking to the same database is concerned, I will have to test this out. I know nothing about the database side of things, and a newbie on asterisk and linux so I have no idea what and where the development of either of these are.

Haven't tested this either but my DBs are clustered A/P providing a single entity to the internal systems. Might further look into a local DNS lookup to add to this. I believe it's possible to do this in the MySQL world with MySQL grid etc? 3) I don't believe frequent registration is that big of an issue for the network load it generates. Most providers out there set devices for a 30-40secs Reg. Refresh to support NAT'ed endpoints and the a reg refresh is hardly about 300-400Byte pkts (I think). The math doesn't add up for a major load esp. if you've got a load balancing mechanism in front of your * boxes. 4) I don't know enough about DUNDi to get into this discussion but DUNDi just lookup extensions? or it also have any part to play in registrations? If they just do extension lookup, then If DUNDi is implemented on an A/P pair of dedicated DUNDi lookup servers which access a clustered database, then barring #1 being true, each * server accesses the same database and pool of registrations.

Re: [asterisk-users] 2 NICs; Asterisk receives on eth1 and replies on eth0
Two different things I think. For redundancy, if you're using RHEL4U2 or later, you can bond your ethernet channels and configure any of the 6 modes AA, AP, ALB etc. you'll get NIC redundancy. Anyone of the NICs die, the other one takes over the MAC and the IP of the failed NIC and the system is always accessible on that same IP. That should solve your problem. Now with the original question, The original question wasn't redundancy, it was physical separation of traffic flow between the two NICs, which has a side-benefit of redundancy but not really since if eth0 dies, no SIP Service! This is not necessarily a limitation of asterisk but a routing thing. If you do a netstat -r, it'll show you eth0 before eth1, which is what the network stack will then use to send your packets over no matter where it's coming from if both NICs are on the same subnet. You may have to either create a manual entry in the routing table. Will have think about it more in terms of what the exact table would look like but if you have a different gateway for your internal traffic, having a static route for that along with some netmask manipulation might sort your problems. But like other people have suggested, you're MUCH better off by having a different subnet for your 2nd NIC. IF you can't, then just bond your NICs and set them to mode 6 where the OS will load balance your tx/rx traffic between the two NICs and you'll still only have one address that you can assign to the DMZ.

Feedback on my testing here. On 7/10/06, Doug Lytle [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Steve Davies wrote: Hi, I was wondering whether anyone has any input into the reliability of faxing (over a PRI) using spandsp and rxfax. 99% of times this is a reliable combination - we use it almost exclusively, but there seem to be certain fax devices which have problems talking to us. Most notably fax modems, and a couple of HP multi-function devices. SpanDSP does very little or no error checking, when an error is encountered, it will fail. Hmmm... I just switched to iaxmodem on a loopback interface as documented, and tried both Hylafax and efax. Both seemed to drop out on any fax larger than 3 pages. When I switched back to app_rxfax, I could receive any length of fax once again. It is also easier to integrate Asterisk and rxfax as asterisk can control where the fax is saved, and what is done to it based on the call that occurred (eg. CLID and dialled number) Also, Hylafax is BIG, especially by the time ghostscript and its prerequisites are installed... Any pointers on how to diagnose or improve this would be appreciated. Install HylaFAX and iaxmodem on your Asterisk box. iaxmodem does use an updated version of spandsp - perhaps that is the source of my problems in this particular case. What I would LOVE is a version of app_rxfax that works with spandsp-0.0.3 and asterisk 1.0.x so I could pin this down further - Perhaps I'll have to backport the test version of rxfax myself. Thanks for the pointers.

[asterisk-users] stuck/phantom zap channels
Hello, Using 1.2.9.1 with bristuff and a QuadBRI card, phantom/zombie channels accumulate throughout the day and end up blocking all incoming calls. It's the first time we have this problem and several similar installations work fine. We suspect bad cabling between the telco and the QuadBRI card. Has anyone dealt with this before?

[asterisk-users] New Asterisk server crashes daily
Hi -This is the first Linux server I have ever built with an installation of [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2.7. For development I have been running on VMWare on an XP box and sustained no crashes or reboots. After moving Asterisk to it's own server I am experiencing daily crashses (around 4am) and I'm not quite sure what the problem is, nor am I sure where exactly to look for logs of any errors prior and during the crash. During the crash there should be nothing running so I'm not sure why it crashes at this time (perhaps some system job that is running at this time?).My hardware is: AMD Athlon 64bit 3200 CPU, 1 gig memory, 100gb hd and a gigabit NIC card. The BIOS is set with defaults.Many thanks, Al. Do you Yahoo!? Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!

Re: [asterisk-users] Choppy MOH (Cisco gateway)

They were new with Asterisk at that time. I told them many times that they had problem in their system, but they never agreed, until one day when one of their engineers figured out that the Cisco hardware was compressing the MoH data to conserve bandwidth, causing choppy MoH.

[asterisk-users] Yet another problem with incoming SIP calls and 407
Hi all, when I receive incoming SIP calls on my Asterisk (1.2.9.1) where the caller has a username in it's From-Address which also exists in my sip.conf then my system answers with 407 Proxy Authentication Required. If it's nonexistent username then callin works fine! It seems that this is a problem in the SIP implementation of Asterisk and found a few hints on how to resolve this (allowguest=yes, insecure=invite,port etc.). But none of them does help! Can anyone suggest what I else could try?

If we balance the sip registrations between the two servers, then there's the issues of both servers having to handle one call via IAX in some situations. What kind of experiences, problems and solutions have y'all had when adding servers to your center?Should we try to have incoming on one server and outgoing on the other?Should we have both servers capable of handling all the IVR operations, so the other server doesn't have to? Should we try to have an identical configuration between both servers and load balance?What kind of general optimizations should we look at to improve network / server performance?Is there a way to easily register each phone with all asterisk servers, and have the phone choose a random server to dial, and then be available as a SIP to each server if it needs to contact it?

[asterisk-users] How to do load balancing (1:1) with IAX and two different ISPs
Hello folks, Does anyone have an idea how I could setup a load balancing (1:1) solution with IAX and two different Internet service providers. The idea is to increase the bandwidth between offices with cheap Internet access (DSL/Cable). I understand that with SIP, I could do that with a SIP Proxy (SER) but how could I do that with IAX (round robin in DNS? / IAX Proxy? ) Any help is appreciated!

RE: [asterisk-users] Server redundancy
-Original Message- From: RR [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 11, 2006 12:45 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Server redundancy Interesting points on both messages 1) as far as multiple asterisk servers talking to the same database is concerned, I will have to test this out. I know nothing about the database side of things, and a newbie on asterisk and linux so I have no idea what and where the development of either of these are. From your message it sounds like it's just how ARA is designed because I doubt it's to do with the ODBC driver itself. This will cause me a lot of grief if you're right about this for multiple * servers to not be able to access the same database for peer lookup. Be prepared for some grief then! :) 2) Clustering of DB isn't an issue, not for me at least. Haven't tested this either but my DBs are clustered A/P providing a single entity to the internal systems. Might further look into a local DNS lookup to add to this. I believe it's possible to do this in the MySQL world with MySQL grid etc? 3) I don't believe frequent registration is that big of an issue for the network load it generates. Most providers out there set devices for a 30-40secs Reg. Refresh to support NAT'ed endpoints and the a reg refresh is hardly about 300-400Byte pkts (I think). The math doesn't add up for a major load esp. if you've got a load balancing mechanism in front of your * boxes. OMG. 30-40seconds? That's insane. We're planning on provisioning 16,000 users on our system. With a registration period of 40s, that's an average of over 400 registrations per second. Actually, it could be over 800 per second, as I think phones re-reregister at half their expirey period. 4) I don't know enough about DUNDi to get into this discussion but DUNDi just lookup extensions? or it also have any part to play in registrations? If they just do extension lookup, then If DUNDi is implemented on an A/P pair of dedicated DUNDi lookup servers which access a clustered database, then barring #1 being true, each * server accesses the same database and pool of registrations. If registrations are refreshed frequently enough, the contact info in the database will always be current and one server dying won't affect anything. At the same time, they just consult the DUNDi lookup server for extension lookups instead of asking the database directly. DUNDi can only lookup the extensions (ie phones) if they are registered. If they aren't registered on any system in the DUNDi peering arrangement, then DUNDi wouldn't return a path to their location... until the phones re-reregister. 5) If you really want to improve on this, supplement your network with SER as proxies and have them deal with Registrations and load-balance feature requests to * servers etc. Once * has done whatever it needs to do (e.g. provide PBX features, voicemail, conference, IVR etc.) it passes the call back to the Proxy to deal with the endpoints. Not as simple as it sounds. So, if the SER boxes handle registrations, how do they propogate this information back to Asterisk? If you don't propogate the information back to Asterisk, then you have to route all dialling from Asterisk back to SER. This causes problems withn certain applications like the Queue command, that as far as I know, can't work with this. There's probably more too. You also have to keep call transfer and call forward in mind. When transferring a call, if you pass the call from Asterisk over to SER for some reason, it has to come back to the same Asterisk box to handle the transfer, Asterisk will puke. All depends on your scope and budget. If you want to have a SP grade service then you need to breakout your functions. I just hope #1 isn't true though. The only alternative then would be to have /etc/asterisk reside on an NFS share or a CFS for all servers to read massively huge conf files if you're catering for large number of endpoints.

[asterisk-users] Issues with making Transfers
Hello, I am having a problem with transferring calls that come in from the outside. Users have been calling in to the PRI that's on the Cisco GW, then they are passed into Asterisk via SIP and to the end phone (Polycom 501/601) using SIP.

We were looking to sponsor video conferencing development on Asterisk a year ago but put it into the too hard basket. We were then looking to build an application using Adobe Flash media Server but have ceased work on this because of licensing changes which made it uneconomical for less than 100 seats. www.cognation.net/unisona At the moment we use Breeze ASP service to do presentations and Asterisk for Voip (and would use LCS or Jabber for internal messaging but just use MSN messenger). We are doing this with the view that things will change in the next 12 months and will re-look at an all in one service based solution at this time. If I had to buy a video/web presentation server solution at the moment it would be www.wiredred.com Best advice I can offer after spending a lot of time looking at this in the past.

Re: [asterisk-users] Server redundancy
What about having the softphone/hardphones configured with a Main Asterisk server and an Alternative Asterisk Server?. I just did a couple of tests with a Cisco ATA 186 and worked quit well after changing the RegInterval and Alternative Proxy Timeout. thks, Alejandro, On Tuesday 11 July 2006 05:04 am, unplug wrote: I have asked about it here. As Douglas said, it doesn't support mult-asterisk in current version. However, I have questions about why multi-asterisk so difficult to implement. 1.

What is mean by multiple Asterisk systems can't reference the same MySQL database for SIP peers.? Does SIP peer information also store in DB? 3. Any difficulty to implement multiple asterisk? 4. If I want to implement multiple asterisk in some extent, how do I begin? Any reference? On 7/11/06, RR [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Interesting points on both messages 1) as far as multiple asterisk servers talking to the same database is concerned, I will have to test this out. I know nothing about the database side of things, and a newbie on asterisk and linux so I have no idea what and where the development of either of these are. From your message it sounds like it's just how ARA is designed because I doubt it's to do with the ODBC driver itself. This will cause me a lot of grief if you're right about this for multiple * servers to not be able to access the same database for peer lookup. 2) Clustering of DB isn't an issue, not for me at least. Haven't tested this either but my DBs are clustered A/P providing a single entity to the internal systems. Might further look into a local DNS lookup to add to this. I believe it's possible to do this in the MySQL world with MySQL grid etc? 3) I don't believe frequent registration is that big of an issue for the network load it generates. Most providers out there set devices for a 30-40secs Reg. Refresh to support NAT'ed endpoints and the a reg refresh is hardly about 300-400Byte pkts (I think). The math doesn't add up for a major load esp. if you've got a load balancing mechanism in front of your * boxes. 4) I don't know enough about DUNDi to get into this discussion but DUNDi just lookup extensions? or it also have any part to play in registrations? If they just do extension lookup, then If DUNDi is implemented on an A/P pair of dedicated DUNDi lookup servers which access a clustered database, then barring #1 being true, each * server accesses the same database and pool of registrations. If registrations are refreshed frequently enough, the contact info in the database will always be current and one server dying won't affect anything. At the same time, they just consult the DUNDi lookup server for extension lookups instead of asking the database directly. 5) If you really want to improve on this, supplement your network with SER as proxies and have them deal with Registrations and load-balance feature requests to * servers etc. Once * has done whatever it needs to do (e.g. provide PBX features, voicemail, conference, IVR etc.) it passes the call back to the Proxy to deal with the endpoints. All depends on your scope and budget. If you want to have a SP grade service then you need to breakout your functions. I just hope #1 isn't true though. The only alternative then would be to have /etc/asterisk reside on an NFS share or a CFS for all servers to read massively huge conf files if you're catering for large number of endpoints.

The main reason being that otherwise you will lose 3way and callwaiting features on asterisk. I'm assuming your answer to this is that you don't care since you just want to make the phone an extended extension on the host PBX, and want it to be as much an extension of the old PBX as posible.

[asterisk-users] several asterisk servers questions
We have a 3 stage implementation plan with a customer, we're still documenting the structure, it is of course subject to change so I welcome all your comments on this matter. customer has one main building and 5 more. All inter-connected with fiber optics links for data/voice traffic. Main building holds the datacenter. proper network gear (switches and routers) are being deployed by another company to the customer. On stage one, the customer wants to have a FAX server. They read about using asterisk as a fax server and also read about Hylafax they also read about astfax+trixbox. The setup must compete against MS windows solutions that do fax-to-email and email-to-fax, we must keep deployment of software to the client machines to a minimum. The customer is looking to deploy an E1 so faxes have 30 channels to receive and send faxes, the server must communicate with an MS Exchange 2003 server. On stage two, there will be an asterisk server to handle PSTN calls (in and out)using E1 lines /about 4 E1s. We think that due to the load (500+ SIP users in main building) voicemail should be handled by a different server. Then On stage 3, another server???, serving SIP users in the main building to connect to the other buildings that will also have a little less powerful IP-to-SIP and/or IP-to-FXS asterisk (those server may have PSTN connectivity). Some form of config backups and/or disaster recovery plans must be documented as well as taking images of the RAID systems that will be using asterisk. I'm expecting full server details on this one, because the customer will provide the equipments (servers). So your comments will be appreciated.

Re: [asterisk-users] Server redundancy
#1.. most the failures and network bottle necks on asterisk in a 1k + user sip /iax are registrations polling'syou are right .. get SER ... dont be dumb.#2 the config file with asterisk hardcode ips is a simple matter of running a script that parses it and puts in whatever it needs #3 basic failover will actually steal the ip form other box.. wich in this case would steal ip of down box.#3b.. we need multiple listening addies.. since asterisk can only listen to one ip its sucks for now On 7/11/06, Alejandro Acosta [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What about having the softphone/hardphones configured with a Main Asterisk server and an Alternative Asterisk Server?.I just did a couple of tests with a Cisco ATA 186 and worked quit well after changing the RegInterval and Alternative Proxy Timeout. thks,Alejandro,On Tuesday 11 July 2006 05:04 am, unplug wrote: I have asked about it here.

On 7/11/06, RR [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Interesting points on both messages 1) as far as multiple asterisk servers talking to the same database is concerned, I will have to test this out. I know nothing about the database side of things, and a newbie on asterisk and linux so I have no idea what and where the development of either of these are. From your message it sounds like it's just how ARA is designed because I doubt it's to do with the ODBC driver itself. This will cause me a lot of grief if you're right about this for multiple * servers to not be able to access the same database for peer lookup. 2) Clustering of DB isn't an issue, not for me at least. Haven't tested this either but my DBs are clustered A/P providing a single entity to the internal systems. Might further look into a local DNS lookup to add to this. I believe it's possible to do this in the MySQL world with MySQL grid etc? 3) I don't believe frequent registration is that big of an issue for the network load it generates. Most providers out there set devices for a 30-40secs Reg. Refresh to support NAT'ed endpoints and the a reg refresh is hardly about 300-400Byte pkts (I think). The math doesn't add up for a major load esp. if you've got a load balancing mechanism in front of your * boxes. 4) I don't know enough about DUNDi to get into this discussion but DUNDi just lookup extensions? or it also have any part to play in registrations? If they just do extension lookup, then If DUNDi is implemented on an A/P pair of dedicated DUNDi lookup servers which access a clustered database, then barring #1 being true, each * server accesses the same database and pool of registrations. If registrations are refreshed frequently enough, the contact info in the database will always be current and one server dying won't affect anything. At the same time, they just consult the DUNDi lookup server for extension lookups instead of asking the database directly. 5) If you really want to improve on this, supplement your network with SER as proxies and have them deal with Registrations and load-balance feature requests to * servers etc. Once * has done whatever it needs to do (e.g. provide PBX features, voicemail, conference, IVR etc.) it passes the call back to the Proxy to deal with the endpoints. All depends on your scope and budget. If you want to have a SP grade service then you need to breakout your functions. I just hope #1 isn't true though. The only alternative then would be to have /etc/asterisk reside on an NFS share or a CFS for all servers to read massively huge conf files if you're catering for large number of endpoints.

I'm working with Asterisk 1.2.5 to get a working system. There are 50 Asterisk configuration files in /etc/asterisk. Are they _all_ called by Asterisk or are some only used in a #include? Is there any way to get a list of which ones Asterisk uses by default? There is only a single #include file and it doesn't even exist. I have only messed with 4 files so far. Are there any more I should be editing? Which ones could be safely ignored? So far the system is just SIP with Zaptel to be added next.

first: download the latest version 1.2.5 had some bugs and is already several months old.Depending on how you want your asterisk to behave will be the amount of files you'll need to mess with.

Re: [asterisk-users] Rate or rank ITSP
There is also the issue of origin of the caller. Not just geographically, but which network provider they use, and to some degree when. Most ISPs see higher traffic volumes when school gets out for the day (abnout 3pm) continuing for a few hours, then gradually declining until its later (11pm or so). As a result, a call made at 10am may have totally different characteristics from one made at 6pm (when both school kids and working adults tend to get home). As such the problem may not be the VoIP provider but with the network of the person sending the call, or a tertiary provider in between the two. Therefore I suggest that if such a list is done, people will include who their provider is, and whether they have had problems in the mornings, evenings, dead of night, etc. That way the list can be as fair as possible to all providers. And if you can search for providers from your geographic location off your provider, you can filter out the ones that are known to be bad from your location and network.

Re: [asterisk-users] Rate or rank ITSP
i think that setting up a qos shaper on the tester gateway could provide a reasonable testing environment not mentioning delay, on worst case you will need 8KB/s (ulaw) you of course are right about origination/network condition but the effort given from such a list could be great not to mention the idea given before from Mike (automation of such list in asterisk) which is something genius!

[asterisk-users] Inconsistent call detail records
Hi list: I need some help to resolve this situation. I placed a call from one phone to a queue, which the queue has one static member. I got two cdr records for each call, but the duration and billsec have two different pattens, I don't know what is the control for this situation. I'd like to get one format, but don't know how. Please help. For example, I list the information for two different calls: Call # 1's two records (partial fields): calldate src dst dcontext lastapplastdataduration billsec uniqueid 2006-07-10 16:02:4428263666 ext-ququesqueue 3666|t|| 11 11 1152572564.24 2006-07-10 16:02:4428268666 from-internal dial SIP/8666|15|tr 138 127 1152572564.26 Call # 2's two records calldate src dst dcontext lastapplastdataduration billsec uniqueid 2006-07-11 11:09:4128263666 ext-ququesqueue 3666|t|| 72 72 1152641381.84 2006-07-11 11:09:4128268666 from-internal dial SIP/8666|15|tr 80 1152641381.86 Many thanks.

[asterisk-users] CDR Call Status
Hi List, When using cdr_csv, the call status are plain strings, i.e. NO ANSWER, ANSWERED, BUSY, etc. However, when using cdr_odbc, the call status are integer. Is there some docs somewhere that would let me know what the integers map to?

[asterisk-users] Polycom ACD, Asterisk, Kernel 2.6
I'm trying to build another asterisk server as I'm having a problem with the current one. Unless anybody can tell me how to compile the meetme app? Everything else works fine, asterisk just will not compile meetme?!? (Under kernel 2.4) I used svn to pull the trunk versions of libpri, zaptel and the polycom_acd_functions (release 30432). I cannot seem to get the zaptel to compile under 2.6, is this correct? Does it only work on 2.4? Is there any release I should be pulling for the zaptel (and libpri)? Or does anybody haveit working or knowa release version that I could pull? ___ --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

RE: [asterisk-users] Issues with making Transfers
This has worked. I downgraded from 1.2.9.1 to 1.2.7.1 and I'm not having the warm transfer issue anymore. Does anyone know if this is a known issue and is going to be fixed in upcoming release?

Users have been calling in to the PRI that's on the Cisco GW, then they are passed into Asterisk via SIP and to the end phone (Polycom 501/601) using SIP. When that user tries to transfer that call to another extension, the call disconnects and hangs in the air and doesn't do anything. The call shows active in the Cisco GW but no where to be found in asterisk. Here is some log output of a transfer attempt: -- Stopped music on hold on SIP/10.25.118.2-b7b4e520 == Spawn extension (ANC, 4023, 2) exited non-zero on 'SIP/4023-ebbfZOMBIE' -- SIP/2198-3780 answered SIP/10.25.118.2-b7b4e520 -- Attempting native bridge of SIP/10.25.118.2-b7b4e520 and SIP/2198-3780 -- Incoming call: Got SIP response 500 Internal Server Error back from 10.45.25.12 I'm not sure if the SIP 500 error is relative to my issue. Any ideas on what could be causing SIP transfers to hang or drop?
