I say this note is important only because I (a AGI PHP newbie) was tormented by this problem for many an hour, even though I'm sure it's documented somewhere or obvious to more experienced users.
So as I was experimenting with AGI in PHP scripting I was baffled by why Asterisk was properly receiving AGI commands written to stdout but always returning "510 invalid command" to the stdin. For example, doing a verbose command would properly show the message in the asterisk CLI but it would return "510 invalid." Also, commands like GET DATA and GET DIGIT would not work at all, even though the CLI would report "Playing file my-file." After spending literally hours fumbling around with different buffer flushing schemes in PHP to no avail (I already knew I was doing the flushing properly anyway) and sending an email to this email list, I finally wrote a script that actually returned the proper values in stdin. The thing that fixed it was putting the "-q" argument in the "#!/usr/local/php -q" thing that you put on the first line of your script file. Apparently this argument tells PHP to supress HTML headers or something according to the documentation. I'm still not %100 sure why this would make a difference, but it does! Everybody is probably already aware of this, but I wasn't, so I hope this helps any other newbie who had the same problem. -nate alpert _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
