[asterisk-users] Voicemail not acting as documented.
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 In http://svnview.digium.com/svn/asterisk/branches/1.8/CHANGES?view=markup, line 180 states: Voicemail now runs the externnotify script when pollmailboxes is activated and notices a change.

Compare the line in each that looks like: # chkconfig: 2345 xx yy The 'xx' is the start priority.

[asterisk-users] Bridging INBOUND PRI to OUTBOUND PRI fails with Monitor()
I wrote a note earlier about this problem but have done quite a bit more debugging. Now I'm stuck at what to do next. I have inbound calls being answered by our Asterisk box, which then dials our answering service and bridges those calls. The inbound and outbound are both PRIs. The answering service takes our calls on a PRI. If I don't use the Monitor() application, things work find and have been for a few thousand calls. If I add the Monitor() application, no audio ever gets passed from the caller to the answering service. I have noted the following things while testing with Monitor(): 1) If I have it call my cell phone instead of the service, it works fine. 2) If I have it call my home phone instead of the services, it works fine. 3) I tried calling another number (in another state) that I know terminates into a PRI and it worked fine. 4) If I call the service without Monitor(), it works fine. Throw in Monitor() and it's virtually guaranteed not to work. My dial plan and debug output for both the working and failing call is at http://www.pastebin.ca/1429504 . Things start to diverge around lines 28-31 and 68-72. Can anyone tell me what I can do to further trace this problem? Thanks in advance for anything you may be able to offer.

Re: [asterisk-users] Add Monitor application to call suppresses audio
This is getting really interesting. I had a chance to do some testing last night. To recap, here is what I'm attempting to do: Caller -- INBOUND_PRI -- Asterisk -- OUTBOUND_PRI -- AnswerService The caller dials our number, * picks the call and offers some choices. If the caller needs to speak to a human, * dials the answering service and then bridges the calls. It works flawlessly in this scenario. If I do Monitor() or MixMonitor() on the channel before dialing the outbound call, 99.9% of the time I get no audio to the caller. Now for the interesting part: If I substitute my cell phone number (xxx-) for that of the answering service (1-877-...) everything, including Monitor(), works just fine. The same goes for calling my home number instead of the cell phone. I don't know what my cell phone and home phone terminates into when I dial those numbers but if I call my answering service I know that they have a T1/PRI. I have done a PRI DEBUG SPAN 4 (where 4 is the outbound PRI) and repeated the tests, capturing the output. Nothing in them jumps out at me as yet but I'll keep looking at them. Does this offer anything suggestive David?

So you say call 1 with recording made a file, and the call connected with voice. And call2 with recording made a file, but the customer didn't hear the voice? Yes. In this case I'm using an outside Asterisk server to dial back in and act like the customer. The first time there was a longer delay in making the connection, but I was able to eventually hear the audio. The second attempt gave no audio to the customer side. What happens if you use MixMonitor() instead? Are you mixing these calls back together afterward? My recollection is that monitor makes a call in two halves, one for sender, and for receiver, and then you have to multiplex the halves back together afterwards. Are you doing the multiplex step? MixMonitor() doesn't act any differently... same no audio condition. Monitor does indeed act as you say but if you add an ',m' option to the call it will do the merge the files back together.

[asterisk-users] Add Monitor application to call suppresses audio
I have an application where we receive calls on an inbound PRI. After hours, our Asterisk box dials our answering service on an outbound PRI and then bridges the caller to the answering service. The flow looks like this: (CALLER)INBOUND_PRI -- CONTEXT -- GOSUB(Incoming) -- GOSUB(bridge-to-anssrv) -- DIAL(answering_service) -- OUTBOUND_PRI(service) This has been working fine for months without so much as a burp. What I need to do is record these calls. If I insert a Monitor() prior to dialing the outbound call, I get no audio in the recording and the caller hears no audio. Occasionally it works (perhaps 1 out of 5 times) but most of the time the caller can't hear the callee, and vice versa. The fully working code looks like this: 1) exten = s,n(place),Verbose(4,Dialing answering service); 2) exten = s,n,Playback(vrec_prompts/this-call-may-be-recorded); 3) exten = s,n,Set(GROUP()=ANSSVC); 4) exten = s,n,Set(CALLFILENAME=${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)}_${CALLERID(num)}); 5) exten = s,n,Dial(${OUTGOING_PRI}/${ANSWERINGSVC},15,r); 6) exten = s,n,Goto(s-${DIALSTATUS},1); If I insert exten = s,n,Monitor(wav,${CALLFILENAME},m); before the dial command on line 5, I'm virtually guaranteed that the call will fail and no audio will be passed. I'm using Asterisk 1.6.0.9, LIBPRI 1.4.10, and DAHDI 2.1.0.4. Can anyone shine any light on why this problem is occurring?

David Backeberg wrote: I don't know why recording is breaking your calls. My guess is something is screwed up with your PRI configuration. Are you getting alarms in your logs from dahdi? Not a peep, either with or without using the monitor command. I've been using this system for around four months during which time it has performed flawlessly, running through 20K calls. You should try to reproduce the problem on demand by generalizing your dialplan, change the number of the answer service to the number of your cell phone, and run some calls through. Done. I've been recording calls with 1.6.0 series using MixMonitor() and haven't been having problems, making me think the recordings step is coincidental. Crank up the verbosity, run some calls through and tell us what's happening. To avoid wrapping, I've posted the results from my tests to this link: http://www.pastebin.ca/1422291 The first call is the dialplan I have been using which works perfectly. The second call, which worked, was the first attempt to use Monitor(), after having restarted Asterisk. The third call is another attempt at getting a recording. It, and any subsequent call, fails miserably. I'm open for any suggestions. Thanks very much David.

For example, if you're still using Zaptel then you will need to learn the minimal changes required to go to DAHDI.
