[asterisk-users] Unable to load module chan_zap.so

Just off hand - isn't that backwards?

Right in the file it says:

What least that is alway what I have done...

2008-04-14 Thread Michiel van Baak
Make sure /usr/lib/asterisk/modules/chan_zap.so is on your system.
If not, my best guess is you compiled asterisk before zaptel.
You'll need to recompile asterisk with the zaptel channeldriver enabled.
Check with: make menuselect

 I'm mainly interested in consistency in configuration. The method has
 to be sophisticated enough to handle this box has 2 Ethernet interfaces

 Why do you think that that would preclude rsync?
 

 Well, it may be based on my ignorance :)

 Can rsync mung a stanza from iax.conf like:

 [general]
   disallow   = all
  allow   = ulaw
  mailboxdetail   = no
  notransfer  = yes
  port= 5036
  register= ${HOSTNAME}:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
  trunk   = no

 and insert the appropriate values?

 Can rsync create /etc/sysconfig/openser like:

 # Created by ./host-setup.sh on 2008-04-12 17:55:03

  OPTIONS=
  OPTIONS=$OPTIONS -l a.b.c.d:5060
  OPTIONS=$OPTIONS -l a.b.c.e:5060

 # (end of /etc/sysconfig/openser)

 where a.b.c.d and a.b.c.e are the IP address of eth0 and eth1? (And the 
 3rd line would only be created if there are 2 interfaces.)

Please check:

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+TAPI

Configure a TAPI source in windows and Outlook can do click to dial
natively using the TAPI Driver.

The order doesn't really matter (unless you try to redefine the same
thing...).

But all of that is Zaptel-level stuff. IT seems to be well defined. 

In the Asterisk CLI, what happens when you run:

  module unload chan_zap.so
  module load chan_aap.so

Re: [asterisk-users] Similar option as promiscredir to use in transfer (REFER)

2008-04-14 Thread tloginbr-asteriskusers
Thanks for the reply, Johansson. Sorry if my question was not very
clear... What I need is that asterisk accepts a REFER command from
the client, sending the call to a non local domain. The scenario is
this: I receive a call from PSTN and dial a sip address that contains
one of my applications (running in a separate machine). This
application receives input from the user and then transfers the call
to another application (in a third machine). The call from PSTN is
going to be in asterisk (that got the call in first place) all the
time, just the other end will change depending on user input. Bellow
is a sip debug from this operation. Asterisk is running in
201.73.67.5:5060 and my first application is at 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:5080. This application then tries to transfer the
call to a second application located at [EMAIL PROTECTED]:5070, but
asterisk ignores the part after the @ from the uri and tries
sending the call to the extension 5070 in the context
from-sip-external. I had a similar problem with redirects (302),
but I solved it using the option promiscredir=yes inside sip.conf.
I've already tried setting the option domain= in sip.conf but that
didn't help...

  I made a similar question in a previous thread, but there was no
  answer, so I think I was not very clear making the question. What
 I
  need is some configuration that works like promiscredir=yes in
  sip.conf that enables me to do the same thing with transfer
 (REFER),
  letting me transfer a sip call to a non local sip address.
 
 
 I'm still not really sure what you ask for, but I'll give it a try.
 
 The transfer() dialplan application supports generating a REFER
 from  
 Asterisk to the client. If the call is not answered, it will send
 302,  
 if the call is in UP state (answered), Asterisk will send a REFER.
 Try  
 it.

 If I put an DSL filter in series with the line and the card, IT WORKS
 PERFECTLY!!! The filter imposes 25 ohms over the circuit. Maybe that's
 causing the card to work. When I put the filter and the ammeter in
 series, I get zero amper when on-hook and 26 mA when off-hook, that's
 the expected behaviour.

It's possible the 'line relay' on that card is not a physical relay,
but electronic, and that its sensitive to too much loop current -- and
the DSL filter drops the current far enough for that 'relay' not to
pull in spuriously.

Telecom guy Mike Sandman has a paper on loop current on his website:

http://sandman.com/loopcur.html

and, come to that, lots of *really* cool stuff for sale as well; if
you've never looked at his site, do.

Understood.  Real Magazines tend to be picky about first pub, though.

True.  That's why I was leaning towards cfengine, which I gather is
tuned for that sort of thing.

 I currently do it with shell scripts but I'm looking for something a bit 
 more sophisticated.
 
 Puppet (http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/AboutPuppet) was

 another language just to support a support tool.

Indeed.

 The shell script approach has the advantage of light weight. I do a 
 minimal Centos 5 install and wget a single script which does everything 
 -- configures the network, installs packages (OpenSER, Asterisk, Zaptel, 
 Libpri, MySQL), adds users, and configures everything from services to 
 timezone. I may stick with it, but it's getting a bit combersome and am 
 interested in what has worked for others.

Noted.  Our solution may not help you all that much; I gather that with
the exception of one small chunk of one file, all our boxen are

April Fools Day was 2 weeks ago, Al.  :-)

rsync, to the best of my knowledge and belief, does not make any sort
of changes to the files it pushes -- it merely pushes the changes you
make.

So if you need a given file, let's say extensions.conf, to contain
different things on different machines, then using rsync to push it
from one master will in fact probably not work the way you want it to.

[asterisk-users] sip.conf wont load completely

2008-04-14 Thread Al lists
I have seen this issue on both 1.2 and 1.4, was not able to reproduce to
find a cause or bug.
I have seen this after power failure boot up.
show sip peer command shows most of peers, except one or two (in my cases
trunk) .
if i issue a sip reload command, it will show all of them.
I can write a script to reload asterisk after a minute of boot up but i
wanted to see if anyone else has seen this issue or has any thoughts.

It is actually two small chunks of two small files in Asterisk and one
line in the vicidial conf file, and that's about it for unique server
configurations, everything else is pretty much the same.

We did recently add a custom backup utility to our SVN for
VICIDIAL(AST_backup.pl) that will backup all conf files, agi, sound
and other files(optionally web files and mysql DB and my.cnf backup)
and tar/gz them then send to FTP server. This has worked well for
multi-server backups for a couple of our clients so far and it will be
included with the next release of VICIDIAL.

The idea behind the script is to create a very simple hot-spare
solution where all you have to do to replace a running machine is
change the IP address of the spare server and un-tar/gz the file on a
base-installed system and it will take the place of the failed machine
within minutes. We haven't had to use it in production in this
capacity yet, but it has worked in testing.

[asterisk-users] do cards just instantly go bad

2008-04-14 Thread Jerry Geis
Hi - Been using a TE205P for a number of months - no issues.

Today I was talking to someone and I heard click
No more phone service.

I still have data service on this T1 line. (partial phone)
zttool reports the SPAN as OK.
calls are not coming in or going out.

Does a card just go bad like that? How can I tell if the card is bad?
I was expecting/hoping to see something other than OK on zttool.
Its reporting OK but still no calls.

I made no changes to anything in weeks.

I presume there is a chance the carrier (nuvox) is having issues but
how can I make sure there isnt something on my end?

My host box is centos 5.1, asterisk 1.4.11 libpri -1.4.1 and zaptel 1.4.5.1

Again, been running fine for MONTHS. I did stop asterisk, service zaptel 
restart, and start asterisk again, same thing though no calls.

THanks,

Jerry

Probably not the card.  More likely the T1 provider.  Contact your 
carrier.  Ask them to put a T1 level trouble ticket.  Ask that you be 
on the phone when the tester is bringing the T1 down and up.

Quite often, all that is needed is to BOUNCE the circuit from the switch end.

 It's possible the 'line relay' on that card is not a physical relay,

Yes, I was suspecting it was something like that. I bought a 33-ohm
resistor (1/2 watt) and it fixed the problem. Both modules are working
properly now.

According to the Ohm's law, the loop's overall resistence was 188.46
ohms, once I was measuring 4.9V and 26mA in the circuit. By adding 33
ohms, it went to 221.46 ohms, bringing the current down to 22 mA.

2008-04-14 Thread Mike Trest - On Travel

-Original Message-
 
  I'd be interested in sections like Rolling out a new server or How we
  maintain all the little configuration files without losing our sanity.

Hi,

I will contribute my 2-cents on how I maintained consistency on  a 
large application
with 64 +  Asterisks that all had to have the same config and links back to
a central DB.

Whenever we needed a new machine, we just

 We had a master source location.with a master image
 We cloned the hard drive with linux  dd copy of master image
 boot the new machine with this disk
 assign appropriate IP address
 perform some sanity checks prior to shipping
 Send either disk or full machine to remote COLO for physical install.

After the machine came on line, it would have enough configuration to
join the other members of the farm of asterisks.

For intermediate updates, we used SSL-DSA keys between the master
master image machine and each of the 64+ remotes.  We would wrote
our own script and gave it a list of each machine on which to perform
the particular steps.  When it was launched, we just went out to lunch
or home at night while the remotes were updated.

This application had as many as 6,000 simultaneous call running and
we wrote the scripts such that each remote were placed in a
take no calls status by the script so we did not kill any active traffic.

We found that no canned package was useful to do this because each
maintenance cycle was addressing a different part of the overall configuration
and had slightly different commands that were needed.

Any good script writer can do the same for what you described.

Regards,  ..mike..

Hello,

VICIDIAL is call center software for Asterisk. It is designed around
Asterisk, not compiled into Asterisk. VICIDIAL takes a different
approach to the call center application from how Asterisk inbound
Queues/Agents does it, since it uses Meetme rooms to house the agents
allowing for more consistency across versions of Asterisk as well as a
lot more flexibility in terms of features. The agent web interface is
an AJAX application that will run well in most modern web browsers on
computers with a PIII 500MHz or higher.

With VICIDIAL you can do inbound/outbound/blended call handling and
there are all sorts of features for call handling and agent functions.
The latest VICIDIAL release is GPLv2, but for future major releases we
are moving to the AGPLv2. VICIDIAL is free as in cost and speech.

There are currently well over 400 companies using VICIDIAL in over 40
countries(unconfirmed survey results show over 700 company users, with
over 17,000 seats total) and the agent interface is available in 9
languages.

Hope that helps. For more info go to:
http://astguiclient.sourceforge.net/vicidial.html

I may have just had an even better idea, crribbing from how DSL does
overlays.

Put said config file on an FTP server on the cluster... named after the
IP of the box, the way Bootp files are.

Put innocuous files on the box as a base install, and have it prospect
the FTP server on boot for an overlay.

This is a good point to remember: shutting down modern motherboards

and that can keep cards from resetting.

As I discovered this week, even a hard power switch on the back isn't
always good enough -- we installed a server with hot-swappable dual
power supplies, each with its own rocker switch.

Turning off both rocker switches *still* did not cause the wake-on-LAN
lights on the Ethernet jack to go out.  I had to unplug both power
cords to accomplish that.

I suspect Underwriters' Laboratories Would Not Be Pleased.

Matt.

 Thanks for the reply and Link. That should get me started looking
at that. Unfortunately, coming from the Nortel world. It may take some
time to get up to speed on things. The hardest part (as I see it) is
getting hardware/software instructions on setting up and then maybe
connecting to someone elses box to play around with the integration of
different sites. This looks like a good Fall/Winter project. Need to
remodel the basement now. Anyway, I think that's a little off list. :) 
 oops. It looks like there is a link on the web-page of the link
that you sent, that provides a "startup from scratch! COOL! 

 Thanks again.

 I'm glad so much has been sent about on the thread I create (bloated ego

 What is VICIDIAL?
 Is it Public Domain?
 Pay for Software?
 What's it all about?  (not looking for all the features, maybe I should put
my understanding of it's functions and people can correct me.)

 It seems to be a software product that can handle call centers, be they in
coming our out going calls. Has modules to take credit cards / and is
customizable so that added functionality can be written.

 This is been very interesting!

Hello,

VICIDIAL is call center software for Asterisk. It is designed around
Asterisk, not compiled into Asterisk. VICIDIAL takes a different
approach to the call center application from how Asterisk inbound
Queues/Agents does it, since it uses Meetme rooms to house the agents
allowing for more consistency across versions of Asterisk as well as a
lot more flexibility in terms of features. The agent web interface is
an AJAX application that will run well in most modern web browsers on
computers with a PIII 500MHz or higher.

With VICIDIAL you can do inbound/outbound/blended call handling and
there are all sorts of features for call handling and agent functions.
The latest VICIDIAL release is GPLv2, but for future major releases we
are moving to the AGPLv2. VICIDIAL is free as in cost and speech.

There are currently well over 400 companies using VICIDIAL in over 40
countries(unconfirmed survey results show over 700 company users, with
over 17,000 seats total) and the agent interface is available in 9
languages.

Hope that helps. For more info go to:
http://astguiclient.sourceforge.net/vicidial.html

No, they're not.

There are service companies specialising in the delivery of 911 calls to 
the correct PSAP along with maintaining and updating E.911 placement/ALI 
information.

I recommend HBF, myself, but they're rather high-end and 
enterprise-oriented.  Also, a well-known local CLEC I've worked for used 
Intrado for intra-LATA and off-net customers needing to dial 911 and it 
seemed to work great.

Yes, we had to read it several times ourselves, the version we have in

I don't know enough about it at the moment to be fond of it or not

I am fairly surprised that I have not heard a single negative comment
about it from any members of our VICIDIAL community or anywhere else.

There are actually other web-based projects that are moving to it as
well(which is how I originally heard about it) and since it became an
official OSI-approved Open Source License along with the special
provisions that GPL made allowing for AGPL compatibility, there are
more people talking about it in the last few months.

In my experience, the most reliable service for me has always been 
associated with commercial PSTN number providers.  When it  comes to 
consumer line service, you want E911 to always work correctly as a 
human life is often at risk.

We use a $.$$ per-call pass-thru via a major US carrier.  We pass the 
service along to our wholesale DID clients.  Even though it costs, it 
is such low usage, that very few of our clients pass it along to 
their retail consumers.

I will look with interest at other responses to your question.

I'm in the same boat.  And we don't need any snide comments because this 
is a potential liability.

Municipalities don't provide E911, they are users of E911 data.  If you 
are not a phone company and you want the E911 data updated with correct 
addresses, then you need to pay someone to do that for you.  That is 
unless I grossly misunderstand it.

 Hmm.  I wasn't aware that either of those functions were permitted to

They cannot be outsourced entirely, in any kind of meaningful financial 
sense.  It is still necessary for the end VoIP provider to collect the 
necessary waivers from the user, to obtain accurate and up-to-date 
address information from the end-user, and to provide facilities to 
complete the E911 call.

The part that can be outsourced is the actual delivery of the call to 
the correct PSAP.  It doesn't make economic sense for a nationwide VoIP 
service provider[1] to obtain hard tandem trunks to the various PSAPs in 
various LATAs all throughout for a service that enjoys at best very 
incidental use and whose costs cannot be recouped.

So, what typically happens is that the VoIP service provider uses some 
sort of intra-industrial interface gateway, web service, API, etc. to 
build ALI information for every customer and transmit that to the E911 
carrier, which updates it in its own database and actually provides the 
PSAP connectivity.

In other words, there's still a lot of legwork to be done by the VoIP 
provider, so I don't know that outsourced is really the right term for it.

[1]  Assuming you think nationwide VoIP service makes sense as a 
business model ... heh heh.

[asterisk-users] polycom auto answer

2008-04-14 Thread Jerry Geis
I was trying to get my polycom phone to auto answer.
I added this to the dialplan. Used a different phone to call 22
and the phone rang it did not auto answer.

Did I miss something?

exten = 22,1,SipAddHeader(Call-Info:=\;answer-after=0)
exten = 22,n,SipAddHeader(Alert-Info: Ring Answer)
exten = 22,n,Set(__SIPADDHEADER=Call-Info:\;answer-after=0)

 Well, I'm not, actually... the people who *like* the GPL (that's,
  y'know, everyone except Trixter :-) would be more inclined to like
  AGPL, I would think; it merely extends the letter to better reflect the
  spirit -- which a lot of people think GPl3 does *not* do...


   There are actually other web-based projects that are moving to it as
   well(which is how I originally heard about it) and since it became an
   official OSI-approved Open Source License along with the special
   provisions that GPL made allowing for AGPL compatibility, there are
   more people talking about it in the last few months.


 If OSI approved it don't *they* then have the official language?

Yes and no, they have the official language for AGPLv3, but not AGPLv2
which is the actual license that they first approved on March 12th. I
can't find the exact version 2 draft that they approved, since it
seems that they moved immediately to post version 3 on their website
and just skipped version 2.

  I did a while back - Dash 911 / Dash Carrier Services.  We looked at
911 Enable.  We didn't like their API or they way they handled calls.
I don't remember all of the details but you could certainly check out

[asterisk-users] zaptel 1.4.10 regression with TE220B on Proliant DL380 G5 ?

2008-04-14 Thread Ex Vito
  Hi list,

  After a lot of testing + troubleshooting, I guess I'm observing
  what I am now calling a regression with zaptel 1.4.10 (is it?)
  As such I call for peer feedback, before either asking Digium
  install support or filing a bug.

  Thanks in advance!


  System: HP Proliant DL380 G5 with 2x PCI-X + 1x PCIe riser card
  OS: Centos 5
  Kernel: 2.6.18-53.1.14.el5 (also tested under 2.6.18-53.el5)
  HW: Digium TE220B, the one with HW echo cancellation
 (configured as 2x E1 via jumpers)

  Context: Pre-site installation of system, no E1 conectivity
   (loopbacks tested)


  /etc/zaptel.conf:
  span=1,1,0,ccs,hdb3,crc4

  dchan=40
  span=2,2,0,ccs,hdb3,crc4
  bchan=56-70,72-86

  After trying lot's of things (disable ILO, disable USBs, try different kernel,

  under zaptel 1.4.9.2...

  In all due honesty, I haven't got the faintest idea what kind of impact this
  could have.

  Side testing zaptel 1.4.10 on a simpler system, an HP Proliant ML110 (nearly
  a PC), the error does not show up as well.


  I checked the zaptel 1.4.10 ChangeLog and there are some changes which
  I'd suspect:

So its not seeing the caller id. What might i have incorrect here?

[asterisk-users] Problem with SPA3000 -- dropping calls

2008-04-14 Thread Rudolf Ladyzhenskii
Hi, all

I have SPA3000 (in Linksys reincarnation) and it has very annoying problem.
Sometimes, incoming PSTN call drops the moment one picks up analog
phone on FXO port.

Most of the times it works, other times phone on FXS rings, I pick it
up and all I get is a dial tone.

Any ideas what may be wrong?

Thanks,

 This was something I put in a long while back on 1.2 branch because we 
 really needed it for 1.2 to bug fix the behavior, but also needed to 
 prevent the change in behavior for those that didn't want it to change.
  
 That being the case and we're in the day and age of 1.6 branches now, 
 it'd be interesting to think of what people would think of deprecating this 
 option completely now in /trunk in favor of the autofill=yes behavior being 
 the only behavior available. I cannot think of any use cases where the 
 autofill=no behavior might be desirable. That being said, I also might have 
 blinders on so would be curious to here what the rest of the community has to 
 say about it.

2008-04-14 Thread Forrest Beck
Jerry,

Did you enable Ring Answer in the phone?

Look at your sip.cfg file for:

 alertInfo voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.value=Ring Answer
voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.class=4/

and

ringType se.rt.enabled=1
se.rt.modification.enabled=1
 DEFAULT se.rt.1.name=Default
se.rt.1.type=ring
se.rt.1.ringer=2
se.rt.1.callWait=6
se.rt.1.mod=1/
 VISUAL_ONLY se.rt.2.name=Visual
se.rt.2.type=visual/
 AUTO_ANSWER se.rt.3.name=Auto Answer
se.rt.3.type=answer/
 RING_ANSWER se.rt.4.name=Ring Answer
se.rt.4.type=ring-answer
se.rt.4.timeout=1500
se.rt.4.ringer=13
se.rt.4.callWait=6
se.rt.4.mod=1/
 INTERNAL se.rt.5.name=Internal
se.rt.5.type=ring
se.rt.5.ringer=2

Have a look at:

 I was trying to get my polycom phone to auto answer.
 I added this to the dialplan. Used a different phone to call 22
 and the phone rang it did not auto answer.

 Did I miss something?

 exten = 22,1,SipAddHeader(Call-Info:=\;answer-after=0)
 exten = 22,n,SipAddHeader(Alert-Info: Ring Answer)
 exten = 22,n,Set(__SIPADDHEADER=Call-Info:\;answer-after=0)
 exten = 22,n,Set(__ALERT_INFO=Ring Answer)
 exten = 22,n,Set(__SIP_URI_OPTIONS=intercom=true)
 exten = 22,n,Dial(SIP/404)

Re: [asterisk-users] Unable to load module chan_zap.so

 In the Asterisk CLI, what happens when you run:

But /usr/lib/asterisk/modules/chan_zap.so does exist and is readable.

In answer to someone else's response, I didn't compile this Asterisk  
or its Zaptel module, I'm using the precompiled packages from  
updates.xorcom.com - but presumably they should match.

Thanks.

Re: [asterisk-users] do cards just instantly go bad

2008-04-14 Thread C F
If you really suspect the card is at fault, you can try to plug in
both ports with a crossover cable and try making a phone call that
goes from one port to the other.
Or you can have the provider send down a tech with a T-Bird.

  zttool reports the SPAN as OK.

  Does a card just go bad like that? How can I tell if the card is bad?
  I was expecting/hoping to see something other than OK on zttool.
  Its reporting OK but still no calls.

  Probably not the card.  More likely the T1 provider.  Contact your
  carrier.  Ask them to put a T1 level trouble ticket.  Ask that you be
  on the phone when the tester is bringing the T1 down and up.

  Quite often, all that is needed is to BOUNCE the circuit from the switch end.

[asterisk-users] Conferencing..

2008-04-14 Thread Ajey Gore
I figured that asterisk can do conferencing if we have zap interface. The
BRI cards I have they do not have Zaptel. How do I enable conferencing on my
server?

Regards
Ajey
