Kevin,

Thanks for the suggestion.  I can't seem to get it to work.

This is what I put in my extensions.conf

We only have one number that we want to keep trying right now, so I tried to set it so by calling extension 777, it would start the system retrying. (The actual number isn't 9999999 :)

[trunkretry]
exten => 777,1,Dial(${TRUNK}/www13239999999},10,)
exten => 777,2,gotoif[${DIALSTATUS}="BUSY"]?(LINEBUSY):(OTHER)
exten => 777,3,(LINEBUSY), Wait(15)
exten => 777,4,goto(trunkretry,1,1)


Thanks,

-N

Why don't you just test for the dial status after the dial command completes? I don't really see why you want something to keep dialing until it gets through, but this would work.

[something]
1,1,Dial(zap/,sip/, etc/whatever, 10)
1,n,gotoif[${DIALSTATUS}="BUSY"]?(LINEBUSY):(OTHER)
1,n(LINEBUSY), Wait(30)
1,n,goto(something,1,1)
1,n(OTHER), do something else

Sure it is pretty rough, but the basics are there. Also you might want to read this: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+variable +DIALSTATUS

Hi,

Does anybody have an easy solution for this.

I want something that will keep trying a busy number every 30 seconds until it gets through.

I've tried retrydial, but can't get it to work.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
