[asterisk-users] duration sec and billing sec in cdr

2007-04-16 Thread Adam KOSA

Hi guys,

i've installed asterisk to handle multiple voip accounts.  I've looked 
at CDR configs, and managed to have cdr-csv files growing after each 
call.  It would be easier to check my locak asterisk cdr's than logging 
into each account and check them at the provider website.


i found that if i ring my sip softphone from my ata, bill seconds are 
counted correctly.  however, if i call via a voip provider, bill seconds 
are counted incorrectly.  Example:


this call went to a pstn number

New call from 551 --- 94361abcdefg (context: internal)
Dialed: SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Call start: 2007-04-14 20:10:55
Answered  : 2007-04-14 20:10:55
Call end  : 2007-04-14 20:11:10
Duration  : 15 sec
Bill  : 15 sec


this call went to my ata from the sip softphone:

New call from 551 --- 505 (context: internal)
Dialed: SIP/505|45
Call start: 2007-04-15 07:58:11
Answered  : 2007-04-15 07:58:15
Call end  : 2007-04-15 07:58:43
Duration  : 32 sec
Bill  : 28 sec


i've searched and google'd the wiki, but found only accounting software 
and cdr extensions for providers, but that's not what i need.


thanks for any help
Adam

Sounds like your VoIP provider is incorrectly sending you an Answer before
the call actually completes.  I would contact your VoIP provider.

I suppose it could also be possible that YOU have an Answer() statement that
is only on your VoIP trunk.  I would double check that, and then contact
your VoIP provider to see if they have any suggestions.

Basically, SOMEONE (your or voipstunt) is answering the call before it
should be answered.

Looks okay to me. either the number you are testing with your VoIP provider
has an automated response which answers the call at the same sec you sent
the Invite request or the provider is sending False Answer Supervision...do
a sip debug and check while you make the call.

this is what's most likely as i have no experience in asterisk configs. 
 I've checked the extension.conf settins, they are:


exten = _94./_5[05][15],1,Playback(please_wait)
exten = _94./_5[05][15],n,Set(CALLERID(name)=my_voip_username)
exten = _94./_5[05][15],n,Dial(SIP/00${EXTEN:[EMAIL PROTECTED])

and for the internal numbers:

exten = _NXZ,1,Set(TIMEOUT(digit)=2)
exten = _NXZ,2,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},45)
exten = _NXZ,3,VoiceMail(b${EXTEN})
exten = _NXZ,103,VoiceMail(u${EXTEN})


Basically, SOMEONE (your or voipstunt) is answering the call before it
should be answered.



i will check this with more voip providers to see if they or i have 
messed up something (but it's probably going to be me, i just don't know 
where to start looking).


thanks again

Playback automatically answers the call unless you tell it not to.  See: 
show application playback in the Asterisk CLI.

The playback wait command may be what's doing it.

The Playback command is auto-answering the call. you can use
Playback(please_wait,noanswer) to fix it.

The Playback is your problem... you need to add |noanswer to the end of 
that to prevent it from automatically answering the call before it plays 
that recording.

This is interesting to me..  I'm a newbie, so please forgive a dumb
question, but what use is it to play a message if you don't pick up the
phone first??  Who's hearing it?

Many types of connections allow you to do early audio or on hook 
audio.  A perfect example of this is when you call a disconnected 
number, you get the telco audio message, but don't get billed for the 
callbecause the telco never answered the line.

playback's manual :(
