Re: [asterisk-users] Call files without permission for asterisk to read
You could save the call file initially to /var/spool/asterisk/tmp, then adjust the permissions as needed and necessary. Finally copy the call file into the outgoing directory. This also minimizes the chance that Asterisk tries to execute a partial file, although I don't know whether one still has to take care of issues like that. jg -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Call files without permission for asterisk to read
Thanks for the responses. Touching a file after setting permissions does not work. Asterisk only looks at the new file only, not all the files in the directory. Restarting asterisk does work, but dont want to do this. Best way i think would be, as suggested by JG, to sync in a tmp directory and at the time of switch-over mv to outgoing directory.

AFAIK there is no Linux interpreter for VBS :( But the format of the callfile is independent of the language used to create it -- anything else would violate the Principle of Equivalence. Just learn Perl or Python instead. Both these interpreters are installed by default on every modern Linux system. Python is for the young and trendy, and I can't get to grips with it myself.

Like only dumping xxx scripts at a time into the spool directory and sending you an email if Asterisk stops processing them for some reason. -- Thanks in advance, - Steve Edwards sedwa...@sedwards.com Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST Newline Fax: +1-760-731-3000 -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] call files .vbs
I'm the original author of said VB Script. Steve is right, I had lots of errors - related to the fact that asterisk watches it too closely and reads the files even before they are complete - and have since updated it that it first dumps it to a temp directory, then use a bash script on the linux machine that moves all files from the temp directory to the call directory using plink. Both pscp and plink are windoz programs that utilize ssh for their functions. Pscp xfers files, and plink executes any remote commands. In the newer version pscp in the VB Script dumps it to /root/calltemps/ and /root/mvcallfiles.sh moves the files from /root/calltemps/* to /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing/ change this line: strcmd=C:\pscp -pw password c:\direcotry\strcnt\* root@asterisk:/var/spool/asterisk/outgoing to: strcmd=C:\pscp -pw password c:\directory\strcnt\* root@asterisk:/root/calltemps make sure the dir exists then add: Set objShell2 = CreateObject(WScript.Shell) strcmd2=C:\plink -pw password root@asterisk /root/mvcallfiles.sh objShell2.Run strcmd2 /root/movcallfiles.sh: #/bin/bash mv /root/calltemps/* /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing/ Hope this helps.

Re: [asterisk-users] .call files with application/data are not generating correct CDR
You often don't get cdrs or at least useful ones unless you run the call files through a Local channel You maybe already doing this Can you check the Master.csv and see if it also is recorded incorrectly there. Is this just an issue with mysql cdrs or something else. In my setups which use freepbx I haven't had an issue with cdrs and call files if using Local channels to call Cheers Duncan On 23/08/2010, at 2:11 AM, Andy Beak wrote: Hi, The exact problem that I'm experiencing is described at http://www.spinics.net/lists/asterisk/msg122364.html in an earlier posting to the mailing list, but I could find no replies to it. I installed Asterisk using Ubuntu's apt-get and then fixed the mysql conf (which doesn't load if you use the default apt-get install asterisk-mysql) by building it from scratch. I'm using Asterisk as an automated voice messaging system so need to be able to dynamically make .call files which point to different mp3 files. My calls are now being logged to the mysql database but even if I answer a call it still logs as Not Answered with a duration of zero. Setting unanswered to either yes or no makes no difference in cdr.conf - the call is still logged as Not Answered if I pick it up. Really the only way around this I can see is to check the lastapp field instead of the disposition. Lastapp is set to Dial if the call was really not answered and MP3Player if the call was answered. I see that there is a known bug in Asterisk and it is suggested to use extension.conf to set up a context rather than using call files. The problem is that I need to be able to change the MP3 that is played. Has anybody managed to solve this problem?

Local channel will help you send your call through the dialplan. You can make all your decision there. If it answers, then the specified application will be execute.

What I would prefer to do is send the first leg of the call to a context and extension so I can send the call using DUNDi rather than a predefined channel.

Sync the clocks on your asterisk boxen using NTP or whatever, and then 'touch' the call files into the future so each asterisk waits before processing it...? Might get them closer.

I thought about using Hylafax, but after looking around a bit, I got the impression that it's not exactly trivial to integrate it with Asterisk, and that it will require a dedicated incoming line. Perhaps I'm mistaken? It isn't that bad basically download compile and install the trick is to find the version of HylaFax that will compile clean under your kernel. You need a version that was released about the same time as the vintage of your kernel. IAXmodem works. It provides a virtual modem that interacts with Asterisk via IAX. Otherwise, you need a channel bank that will terminate to some POTS lines and regular modems + free serial ports, but then, any other fax package requires that as well. The big weakness in Hylafax is the client. 90% of the time the client will be under Windows, and your choices are Cypheus, which is pretty and user friendly but slow and crash-y or WHFC which is ugly and nasty but works 100% and has slick features like offline faxing. hth ___ --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] .call files in outgoing dont get run
First, check your permissions. That seems to be the most common issue there. Make sure that the asterisk user has full read and right permissions to the directory and the file. Second check your logs. After you do this, something like: grep -i warning /var/log/asterisk/full | tail -n 10 may give you something useful to go on.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] call files run at certain times
BTW, can you use the same call file to make 2 calls in order or just 1 call per call file? What I want to do is first make a call to a sip phone and playback some file and then make another call to the same sip phone but this time connect the call to a zap line. This has to be in order since the first call is kind of an announce and the second is the actual connect. Can this be done on the same call file or what do you guys suggest? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steven Critchfield Sent: Lunes, 28 de Marzo de 2005 04:16 p.m. To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] call files run at certain times On Mon, 2005-03-28 at 15:55 -0600, Anton Krall wrote: Im checking the wiki for call files info and seems somebody has a wake up script that runs call files at certain times.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] call files run at certain times
But this doesn't work in an environment where multiple person are using it.. For example, multiple call files with multiple announcements.. For example: A system for programing future calls ALA secretary. Person A call exte *23 and records a reminder, enter the phone number to be called later and the time. A call file is made which contains the time to make the call and the number to call (via zap) and extension to connect it to (the owner of the call file extension). Tehn at that time, the call file is to be run, calling the owner, playing back the reminers to let him know a schedule call is about to be made and what its about, then the call is made via zap and the 2 connect. That's the idea Im working in. The scheduling of the call file via *23 is already done and the reminders recorded ans stuff. The problem I have is that the call can be connected via a call file but I cant find a way to first playback the reminder and THEN connect the call. I can use extensiones for this since many persons will be using it so the reminder is recorded using call%d for incremental names, so this system must be multiuser aware.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] call files run at certain times
Ok, so you have a context: [mycallouts] exten = _X.,1,Answer exten = _X.,2,Background(mycall${EXTEN}) exten = _X.,3,Dial(ZAP/g1/${EXTEN}) and when you do the record you can do [myrecording] exten = 98,1,Answer exten = 98,2,Background(please_enter_99_followed_by_number) exten = 99.,1,Record(mycall${EXTEN:2}) Or something similar. Hope that makes sense. So the record will create a file called mycall5551234 or whatever the number is, and then from the call file you'd send it to the context mycallouts with the extension set to whatever the number was and then it would play the correct file, and then call the number. -- Cheers, Matt Riddell ___ http://www.sineapps.com/news.php (Daily Asterisk News - html) http://www.sineapps.com/rssfeed.php (Daily Asterisk News - rss) ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

RE: [Asterisk-Users] call files
Hi, Why don't you turn the process around: 1/ file is created 2/ internal number is called 3/ internal party answers 4/ internal party hears ringing as the external party is being called. Ofcourse everything depends on how you have built your dialplan since you'd need to have access to an context that can do outbound dialling by number. 1/ file is created 2/ external number is called 3/ the external party answers 4/ the external party now hears ringing as you extension is now being called - bad! What I would like to get round this is probably the reverse - I don't want the people I am calling to hear ringing. For example as soon as it has dialled the receiving end call me, or call me first then call the other extension? ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
