[asterisk-users] Asterisk Queues Problem

2007-02-15 Thread John Breen

Help!

I'm (still) having issues with Asterisk Queues.

I want to implement a queue so that callers get the 'all our staff are 
busy at the moment, your call has been placed in a queue and will be 
answered by the first available operator.  You may press 1 at any time 
to leave a voicemail' announcement, then they can press 1 and leave a 
voicemail.


Documentation with * 1.2.x (I'm using 1.2.15) and in the O'Reilly 
Asterisk book says I can add a line context=blah to the queue definition 
and this becomes the 'escape context' where pressing buttons will take 
you to whilst in the queue.


I've done this, and put the relevant context in extensions.conf and put 
extension 1 in there - and nothing happens - I call into the queue and 
press 1 and don't go anywhere.


Please help if you know how to solve this issue, I have been working on 
it for a week and it's becoming quite urgent (not to mention causing me 
to tear my hair out with frustration...)

John Breen

*8 doesn't take an extension does it?  If you dial *8 send, it just 
picks up the first ringing extension within your pickup group.  At 
least, that's how I use it on several sites...

Hello John,

I'm not sure - but when tou try to define a context for testq queue with:
   context=testing
it is useless. From what I know you could not have such an option 
inside a queue.


Did you find any documentation specifying a context for a queue?

Best regards,
## nini @ www.modulo.ro ##

Indeed I did, in several places including on the web.  One I believe was 
in the excellent book from O'Reilly "Asterisk - The Future of 
Telephony",  Also from the sample configs with * 1.2.14, which is what 
we're using:


; A context may be specified, in which if the user types a SINGLE
; digit extension while they are in the queue, they will be taken out
; of the queue and sent to that extension in this context.
;
;context = qoutcon

[asterisk-users] Queue extension issues

2007-02-08 Thread John Breen

I'm stuck on queues!

The way I read what documentation I have found, if I set up a queue like 
this:


[general]
persistentmembers = yes

[testq]
musiconhold=default
strategy = ringall
timeout = 10
retry = 5
context = testing
member => SIP/100


and then add into extensions something like this:

[incomingiax]
exten => 1234,1,Dial(SIP/100,10)
exten => 1234,2,Queue(testq|tTH|||300)

[testing]
exten => 1,1,Dial(SIP/101)

[testcontext]
exten => 100,1,Dial(SIP/100)
exten => 100,hint,SIP/100

exten => 101,1,Dial(SIP/101)
exten => 101,hint,SIP/101

exten => 102,1,Dial(SIP/102)
exten => 102,hint,SIP/102


Then if a user dials in on extension 1234 (which is what's forwarded 
from the iax peer), Ext.100 should ring for
10 sec, then the call should be placed in queue testq.  While the call 
is in the queue , the caller should be able to press 1, which should 
then send them on to ext. 101.  That's right, isn't it?


Problem is, dialling 1 doesn't go to ext. 101

I can't see anything obvious that I've done wrong - It all looks right 
to me.  But I've obviously missed something.  Can anyone enlighten me as 
to what that something might be?
