The problem always arises if I try to execute a skript in the 'h' extension. In my case i wanted to sent out an email when somone called and nobody picked up the phone:
h => { if ( "${DIALSTATUS}" == "CANCEL" ) { System(/etc/asterisk/scripts/mail-missed.sh "${CALLERID(name)}" "${CALLERID(num)}" "${CALLEDNUMBER}"); }; }; This totally locks up my system as the asterisk process gets in a busy loop until the external process finishes. Sometimes the system recovers after several minutes with asterisk at 100% cpu usage, sometimes i have to reboot to regain control of the system. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to asterisk in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/695556 Title: Asterisk "locks up" the system when an external process is called from the 'h' extension with a lower priority than Asterisk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/asterisk/+bug/695556/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
