Re: [asterisk-users] Useful GUI? [Was: Why does everyone seem to dislike *now?]

What I'd prefer is: Pretty sure that AsteriskNow is reading as well as writing. Also, murf made some changes to clean up rewriting the other day (blank comment lines now get retained or something). - The chance to do CLI stuff as I see fit, BUT - the ability to let users -- even administrative users -- use a GUI, without messing up my beautiful config files. :) I'd say that unless you get a race condition (i.e. GUI reads files, you save your changes from CLI, GUI writes out changes), you should be sweet now, although someone who uses AsteriskNow should be able to confirm/deny. Is this a pipe dream, or is there a GUI out there that might actually do the job? - From what I've heard, AsteriskNow is shaping up pretty nicely. There are options for things like TrixBox too - i.e. the custom extensions.conf stuff, but you need to remember that the machine is running TrixBox and not change the base extensions.conf. This used to be ok because if the extensions.conf-custom (or whatever the filename is) only appeared on machines which had TrixBox. I've lately seen a few machines where the extra config files exist but TrixBox is not running (i.e. someone copied /etc/asterisk from a TrixBox machine). I actually put my extensions.conf stuff into a generate.php file which writes out the extensions.conf file with parameters supplied by the customer stored in separate files. So our software is doing the same thing (overwriting configs) but I don't want the users changing settings too much. I guess this is probably pretty similar to the TrixBox idea but I haven't had a look at how that works under the hood. I think AsteriskNow also lets you edit configuration files from the web page. - -- Kind Regards, Matt Riddell Director ___ http://www.venturevoip.com (Great new VoIP end to end solution) http://www.venturevoip.com/news.php (Daily Asterisk News - html) http://feeds.venturevoip.com/AsteriskNews (Daily Asterisk News - rss) -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFG7zliDQNt8rg0Kp4RAmKTAJ9mqmG/j0dw88L0N4g/4R1FFH0KCwCfQKMJ lBE5riG5KZ038I30E3R7liA= =/xas -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Sign up now for AstriCon 2007!

Re: [asterisk-users] where is 1.4.12?
Russel, Please excuse me for saying it yet once more... (look for the thread Stable Stable Asterisk, from Sunday). Build bots are nice to check and spot for compile errors (which is good). But I think that what people are looking here (well, specially me) is a set of automated tests for all of us to make before we bring our test PBX to production, something you do before release. I have a been working on such a list, but it's more or less concentrated on channel banks (like duh... look at my email...). I would be more then happy to give you the list of tests I have made if you desire.

That in itself is not easy. Thanks. I understand that simply compiling only goes so far in regards to testing. What I was trying to get across is that we were working on the setup to have an easily configurable automated build and test environment. After working on setting up the infrastructure and verifying it using build tests, we can start adding automated runtime tests. Then, over time, we can build smarter and smarter ways to automatically and routinely test functionality. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

What unit tests are available for me to try? Can you share the tests your lab is doing with the Asterisk community? We might be able to test it with you and help you with it (even add some tests). We really do try very hard to test all of our changes. We have community members that work very hard to help test out the more invasive changes. Furthermore, we have a lot of people run the code from the release branches directly so that regressions are caught quicker, and hopefully before they make it in to a release. And yet people complain a lot. (see the post of Steve Totaro bellow me). At Digium, we have a department dedicated to doing testing of our products, including Asterisk. Every bug that is found as a part of this testing gets fixed in the open source branches as well. Well, I am a n00b in the Asterisk world (only 2 years in it). But I do have an active @kde.org email account for 5-6 years, and I do see what they are doing. The KDE4 code is 50-200 times bigger (*) (I am not even counting the extra* modules, or the dedicated branches which might get the number WAY up), and yet they are doing 50 times more testing. Both insecurity and bug fixes (think EBN, or the unit-tests been made in kdelibs). ... and that is even before we speak of the huge work Trollteck is making in stabilizing Qt releases *before* KDE gets them, and not the huge amount of work Novel is investing in usability tests, or the work Mandriva is investing in coding, or the infrastructure that RH is investing in linux itself. What I would like to know is : how I as a person using Asteriks, or deploying it, can test it for you. What steps do you recommend to me?. Just for reference I just left a mini-system here at Xorcom running with ~30 calls SIP/ZAP for 2.5 days, playing Vivaldi to echo test, giving me a load average of 2.5-3 for 2 and a half days. It's a start, but I am not sure what else can I do. Can you give us, the community, a standard set of tests we can make to our PBX for which we can claim we tested this system with the same tests Digium are testing, it's stable, we and Digium guarantee it. (*) just for reference, I think Amarok's code is a little bigger then Astresik 1.4 code. Well at least 1.2.

Can you tell I'm a Gentoo user? :P I've got nothing against packages in principle, and my system has plenty of packages from the distribution, but I've yet to see a project as dynamic as Asterisk. What package maintainer could possibly keep up? And even gentoo uses packages. Sorry, but make install is something for developers - not users. The good thing about package managers, is that they tell you which package has been modified (a user changes a file, someone breaks into your machine and modifies a binary). In rpm it's done via rpm -qVa and in debian it's done by the command debsums. I am not sure about gentoo. On a developers users - I would say install from source. On a *users* list : install always from your distribution packages. When was the last time you installed X from sources? KDE? Mozilla? OpenOffice?

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk on Debian Etch
you need to use apt-get install asterisk. If you MUST HAVE 1.217 or your cats die, there are repositories available. For example, read this: http://www.buildserver.net/ If you still MUST build asterisk yourself, I wish you good luck.

[asterisk-users] DTMF issues
Hi all, I am trying to indentify a problem: I have 2 machines, one with Asterisk 1.0.11, the second with Asterisk 1.2.17. Both running with the same zaptel (1.2.16). Asterisk 1.0.11 running on Sarge with AMP's dialplan and the 1.2.17 running on Etch with FreePBX's dial plan. Now on both machines, I have some FXS connected (yes, I am talking about Astrinbanks...). The problem is that when I call one FXS to another on the 1.0.11 machine I can press one of the DTMF buttons and have a solid sound. On the 1.2.17 machine, the sound is cut off and only the first 0.1 seconds at the beginnin and end are passed to the other side. I can also confirm that with another dial plan the machine with cut off DTMF sound does pass the full DTMF sound (we usually leave the keys pressed for several seconds to test the sound quality). Now the fun stuff: The zapata.conf files are identical on the AMP and FreePBX setup. The other configuration I tested, is too different to help me. The default values on both machines in the end of this mail. I am probably missing something very stupid, and I would like to hear what do you think it is.
