[asterisk-users] Unable to create channel of type 'SIP' (cause 20 - Unknown)

 Hi

I've saw some similar case in the mail list, but seems no standard
 answers, so I decide ask here again.

Is there anyone see the message below ? I use asterisk(1.8.11-cert 9)
 in my openbts2.8, and when I made a phone call, the Asterisk CLI poppd the
 following messages.

 =
 *CLI   == Using SIP RTP CoS mark 5
 -- Executing [8690@phones:1] Dial(SIP/IMSI466974600011287-,
 SIP/IMSI466974104638690) in new stack
 [Dec 18 16:00:49] WARNING[2934]: app_dial.c:2218 dial_exec_full: Unable to
 create channel of type 'SIP' (cause 20 - Unknown)
   == Everyone is busy/congested at this time (1:0/0/1)
 -- Auto fallthrough, channel 'SIP/IMSI466974600011287-' status
 is 'CHANUNAVAIL'
 ==

The attached files are the sip.conf and extension.conf and wireshark
 trace log.

The part of my setting in sip.conf is:

 [IMSI466974104638690];
 callerid=8690 8690 ;
 regexten=8690;
 canreinvite=no
 type=friend
 allow=gsm
 context=phones
 host=dynamic
 registertrying=yes

 [IMSI466974102820333];
 callerid=0333 0333 ;
 regexten=0333;
 canreinvite=no
 type=friend
 allow=gsm
 context=phones
 host=dynamic
 registertrying=yes


 [IMSI466974600011287];
 callerid=1287 1287 ;
 regexten=1287;
 canreinvite=no
 type=friend
 allow=gsm
 context=phones
 host=dynamic
 registertrying=yes

The part of my setting in extensions.conf is:

 [phones]
 exten = 8690,1,Dial(SIP/IMSI466974104638690)
 exten = 0333,1,Dial(SIP/IMSI466974102820333)
 exten = 1287,1,Dial(SIP/IMSI466974600011287)

   How to exactly configure asterisk for a sip call ? Thanks very much !

When you use a dynamic host type, the device needs to register to
Asterisk in order to be dialed. Otherwise there is no way to for
Asterisk to know what address to send the invite to and Asterisk will
make chan_sip issue the cause 20 error you are seeing. If the device
has a static IP and you don't want to deal with registration, you
could always change the host to that IP address. Alternatively you
could just figure out how to get your devices to register to your
Asterisk server.
