I tried it, and it works, but it is hardly an ideal solution
I've setup the following file:
Channel: SIP/1003
Context: from-sip-internal
Extension: 338
Priority: 1
And it does almost exactly what I want so Oliver/Niksa, thanks for the idea.
However the call file mechanism seems to insist upon a channel which implies
a phone has to ring before the extension (containing the dialplan actions I
want to execute) is called.
Is it right that the channel must be included in the call file? If so, is
there a dummy channel available that will always answer. I've had no joy
getting the application option to work but it, too, seems to require a
channel parameter to be present in the file.
Thanks

Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Execute dialplan command at startup
I tried it, and it works, but it is hardly an ideal solution. If you,
for example, forget yourself and execute 'restart now' from * console,
.call file won't be generated and you may spend hours wondering what
went wrong.
I believe the lack of some kind of 'autostart' context is a major flaw
in design, but then again, I guess it could easily be implemented.

In the meantime I'm hoping that it is possible to use the built-in
database
and be able to run some kind of autostart context. Does such a
facility
exist?
Without getting into details, I would create a call file in the
outgoing spool directory of asterisk within the asterisk startup
script which calls a specific application.
Haven't tried, but should easily work.
Let me know, how it works.
