[Asterisk-Users] callerid validation and expression parser problems on Solaris 10
Greetings to All.
A little background about
what I am trying to do, and please excuse the length of this post.
I am setting up a voicemail
(VM) system based on Asterisk. From what I've heard Vonage uses Asterisk as
their VM platform as well. I am running 1.2beta with a MYSQL backend for
extensions and VM user info. All the sound files and vm messages are being stored
through an NFS mount externally. The reason for this is that there will be
several asterisk VM frontends, all accessing the same config and vm user info
as well as sounds files.
The customer's CALLERIDNUM
is the same as their vm mailbox. I need to be able to recognize when a customer
calls his own mailbox, ie. when CALLERIDNUM equals VMID (VM mailbox) so that
the customer can be directed to his or her vm mailbox. So far I have not been
able to get this to work.
Here is what I have tried
(the format may be strange to some, but this is for insertion into the mysql
db):
priority='1',app='Set',appdata='vmid=03413306999';
priority='2',app='Set',appdata='cid=03413306990';
priority='3',app='set',appdata='sanity=$[${vmid}
= ${cid}]'; priority='4',app='noop',appdata='${sanity}';
priority='5',app='gotoif',appdata='$[${sanity}]?10:20';
priority='10',app='playback',appdata='vm-doesnotexist';
priority='11',app='Hangup',appdata='';
priority='20',app='playback',appdata='vm-intro';
-- Executing
Set(SIP/10.10.13.110-00123d48, vmid=03413306999)
-- Executing
Set(SIP/10.10.13.110-00123d48, cid=03413306999)
-- Executing
set(SIP/10.10.13.110-00123d48, sanity=0)
-- Executing
noop(SIP/10.10.13.110-00123d48, 0)
-- Executing
gotoif(SIP/10.10.13.110-00123d48, 0?10:20)
-- Goto
(default,03413306999,20)
-- Executing
playback(SIP/10.10.13.110-00123d48, vm-intro)
-- Playing 'vm-intro'
(language 'en')
Call comes in, and the two
variables are set. This has bee verified with noop in previous attempts. Since
I cannot spoof CALLERIDNUM, I am just creating my own fake cid variable. I can
also see CALLERIDNUM come in fine so I can use this later.
Sanity is just a variable to
keep track of whether or not cid and vmid are equal. IN this case they are, so
the statement is true, and sanity should be equal to 1 as per the asrterisk
variables and expressions wiki pages. But in this case sanity=0 so the gotoif
statement is false. Screwing the rest of the vm routine. Gotoif works the way
it should if I put in a zero (for false), or 1 (for true), going to the
appropriate lines. I have also tried doing some arithmetic, but asterisk does
not want to treat my variables as numbers, and I get an op_minus overflow
error.
It seems that there is a
problem with Asterisk 1.2 and parsing expressions, at least on Solaris 10. I
have copied my config to Asterisk 1.0.9 running SUSE, and it works flawlessly,
just as expected. I am currently installing 1.2 on SUSE and will see if the
same issue exists.
If anyone has come across
this problem, and has a solution I would very much appreciate any input.
Regards to all,
Joe

By sound files do you mean the static 'enter your password' type files?
You may do a lot better having those on the individual boxes to reduce
the load on the network. If its static keep it on the box, as a general
rule.
priority='5',app='gotoif',appdata='$[${sanity}]?10:20';
goto 10 if true 20 if false
[...]
-- Executing set(SIP/10.10.13.110-00123d48, sanity=0)
0 means false
[...]
-- Goto (default,03413306999,20)
goes to 20 as you told it to
Sanity is just a variable to keep track of whether or not cid and vmid
are equal. IN this case they are, so the statement
no they arent.
priority='1',app='Set',appdata='vmid=03413306999';
priority='2',app='Set',appdata='cid=03413306990';
6990 vs 6999

Many times I have been victim of typos. My solution has always been to
fix the typo then proceed. Hopefully that solution works for you too :)

If its static keep it on the box, as a general rule. Are the frontends and the nfs server close enough to easily cable them together? If so just add a nic to each box and a switch. That way you can have a separate lan for that network activity. I helped somebody do a gigabit ethernet lan that had a monster raid5 nfs server on 10.1.1.1 with 6 nfs clients to start out. Next thing he will put on the lan is a dedicated database server. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation sponsored by Easynews.com -- 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
