RE: [asterisk-users] balance anouncement

Its telling you the sound file Goodbye
does not exist in the directory it looks for sounds. If you indeed have a sound
file called Goodbye then you need to either move it to the default sounds
directory or add the path line to the command. If you dont have the
sound file youll need to either create one or use one you do have.

RE: [asterisk-users] PRI and Asterisk

2006-08-23 Thread Kevin Savoy








I have tested Redfones boxes. Tried
two of them and was able to re-create some issues. I did not have PRI lines but
a 24 channel em wink line so not sure if PRI is affected as well. I found
that over time we had issues with hanging zap channels. Asterisk reported
everything was just fine yet people got busy signals calling in and when
calling out all they got was silence. The CLI never showed any incoming calls
that were attempted and when dialing out it showed Dialing but nothing
happened. I worked with Mark Warren at Redfone and he was very co-operative and
had an idea to fix this but sadly we just didnt have any more time to
fight with it and went with Digium cards. As of this writing I am starting to
get problems with inbound calls. Seems for a couple minutes no one can dial
into our office and then it just clears up. No errors or anything in Asterisk
to indicate a problem.

someone recommend a good text to speech engine that is usable by Asterisk? I

We

You have flite that is free and, IMHO better than festival

Kevin,

Thanks for the suggestion.  I can't seem to get it to work.

This is what I put in my extensions.conf

We only have one number that we want to keep trying right now, so I  
tried to set it so by calling extension 777, it would start the  
system retrying.  (The actual number isn't 999 :)

[trunkretry]
exten = 777,1,Dial(${TRUNK}/www1323999},10,)
exten = 777,2,gotoif[${DIALSTATUS}=BUSY]?(LINEBUSY):(OTHER)
exten = 777,3,(LINEBUSY), Wait(15)
exten = 777,4,goto(trunkretry,1,1)


Thanks,

RE: [asterisk-users] Fwd: Dropping incompatible frame killing Asterisk

2006-08-10 Thread Kevin Savoy
This is an issue I'm having as well. Here is what I've discovered. 

Call comes in on a T1 line. Call is sent to a SIP phone (say 4000) based on
the extensions.conf setup. User of phone 4000 has set a forward in the phone
to an external number, 1-555-555-. There is nothing telling Asterisk to
Dial(Zap/g1) so the call does not get converted back to slin to send along
the T1 lines out of the building. Since SIP can't be sent the frame is
incompatible and is dropped. I know this probably isn't as technical as it
should be but in essence it is what is happening. I've had to do a
workaround and set up an extension that dials the number that the phone was
to be forwarded too. I set up extension 500. The user forwards the phone to
500. extensions.conf says Dial(Zap/g1/155).

Band-aid solution. I've seen on the bug reports it is a known issue but not
resolved yet. Last update was July 5th.

The phone appears to be a SNOM and should be using only g.711 alaw or ulaw.

I inherited this box with Asterisk running as root so I've changed it
to a non-privileged user but assuming the server is dynig through
resource starvation I doubt it'll help.

So, any ideas what this traffic is? What can we do to stop it? Clearly
I need to upgrade Asterisk but a cursory glance at the changelog
doesn't suggest a bug was reported with these symptoms which would
have been fixed in a later release.

RE: [asterisk-users] Fwd: Dropping incompatible frame killing Asterisk

2006-08-10 Thread Kevin Savoy
My Asterisk is 1.2.9.1 but I've recreated this on 1.2.7 and 1.2.8. Not tried
1.2.10 yet.

This only happens on forwarded calls for me as well. I've not let it run too
long to see if the server dies eventually. I don't believe it will because
once the caller hangs up the errors stop and my server carries on. I've not
had it die on me yet but I've no told our users NEVER to forward outside the
building.

Hi

Sorry, I should have mentioned that we're only running SIP. Our calls
to the PSTN are routed through a VoIP carrier and all of our clients
are SIP.

Which version of Asterisk are you using? Is this killing your box? If
it is, have you established why? CPU being killed, memory starvation,
something else?

It is only happening on forwarded calls, though. I'll have to try your
workaround.

Thanks,

[asterisk-users] Operator in Voicemail

2006-07-24 Thread Kevin Savoy








Ive
got an odd problem. I have set in Voicemail.conf operator=yes as a default. This
is so that when a caller is in the voicemail system they can press 0 and be
sent to the operator. This works fine when the caller is internal to the system
but NOT when the caller is calling in from the PSTN. Instead the caller gets
the message Press 1 to accept the recording. Pressing 0 again deletes the
message. How do I get this to work for outside callers calling in??



Thanks

 *Subject:* [asterisk-users] Operator in Voicemail
 
  
 
 I've got an odd problem. I have set in Voicemail.conf operator=yes as a 
 default. This is so that when a caller is in the voicemail system they 
 can press 0 and be sent to the operator. This works fine when the caller 
 is internal to the system but NOT when the caller is calling in from the 
 PSTN. Instead the caller gets the message Press 1 to accept the 
 recording. Pressing 0 again deletes the message. How do I get this to 
 work for outside callers calling in??

Would this work?
exten = 3299,1,VoicemailMain(${EXTEN})

This way it would check the voicemail of the extension doing the dialing?

Subject: [asterisk-users] Voicemail  CallerID

I've got a question about voicemail and callerid and I can't quite 
figure it out. I've got extensions 100, 101 and 102.  For outbound 
callerID (calls from the phones to the PSTN), I want the callerid to say 
100 on all phones, so under sip.conf, I added:

callerid=Bill 100

The problem is that when they go to check voicemail, it looks at their 
callerID and it drops them into mailbox 100 (calls to them still go into 
their own specific mailbox, it is just when they hit their messages 
button).  Any idea how to get around that?  Or do I just have to send 
them to voicemail without having it automatically enter their extension?

This is what my voicemail does:
exten = 3299,1,VoicemailMain(${CALLERIDNUM})

Are you sure they are sending you all 10

on DID. If this is the case you would have this:



exten = 4567,1,Answer()
exten = 4567,1,DIAL(SIP/user,20)

Hi friends,

At present, I am making outgoing calls using Teliax service with Asterisk. But,
I am unable to receive calls. My DID number is: 3031234567. I am using SIP
Server (Asterisk) setup, which is provided on Teliax website support. I have
replaced my DID number i.e., 3031234567 in YOURNUMBER. But, I am unable to
receive calls. 

My configuration file in extensions.conf File:

exten = _1XX,1,DIAL(SIP/teliax/${EXTEN},30,tr)

exten = 3031234567,1,Answer()
exten = 3031234567,1,DIAL(SIP/user,20)

---
I hope the above configuration is proper, If not please suggest the
modifications.

In addition, I have some doubts.

1) How should I configure my DID number in extensions.conf file to recevice
incoming calls?
2) Are they any modifications required in Features option in my
account on Teliax website?
3) To receive incoming calls, do I need to make any kind of modifications to
other configuration files in Asterisk and setup DID number?
4) Do I need to set Public IP in my Asterisk server or our local IP is enough?
4) After configuring DID number, where can I receive the phone call (ring)?
5) How can I setup IVR (Interactive Voice Response) system to my DID number.
(i.e., If someone calls to my DID number, then our IVR (Welcome message) should
respond and ask for extension number.)

Please respond to this message ASAP. Looking forward to your response.

Thank you.

Chandra.

[asterisk-users] Zap Channel not hanging up on Telco side

2006-07-06 Thread Kevin Savoy








Im
having an issue where Asterisk hangs up a call (either party hangs up) but the
telco side of the T1, both the local company and ATT, does not receive the
hangup signal from Asterisk. Therefore Asterisk thinks the channel is available
but its still off-hook on the telco side. I have confirmed this with
ATT that the channels are open on their side but not in Asterisk. Any
ideas what is causing this? The CLI does show the call hanging up. This is not
on every call and Ive not been able to determine yet when it locks and
when it doesnt. My guess at this point is when a call is placed but the
caller does not wait for the answering party to answer and hangs up. Then the
called party line keeps ringing, Ive confirmed this calling my cell phone,
and then the called party answers. At this point I see the CLI state that it is
starting a simple switch, as if the call is reconnecting to Asterisk and then
hangs up since I have the s,1,Hangup() and Asterisk at this point doesnt
know where the call should go. I believe at this point the call is hungup in
Asterisk but NOT on the telco side.



Any
ideas how to get around this???



Thanks

Good point. I am using Asterisk 1.2.9.1, Zaptel 1.2.6. libpri 1.2.3. I had
the same issue with Asterisk 1.2.7.1, Zaptel 1.2.5 and libpri 1.2.2.

My Zapata.conf looks like this:

[channels]

;ATT T1's

switchtype=national
signalling=em_w
channel = 1-96

;Local T1's
group=2
switchtype=national
signalling=em_w
channel = 97-168

My Zaptel.conf looks like this. We are using RedFone's Fonebridges hence the
dynamic channels but I was able to re-create this with the wct4xxp card we
have as well.

Does us no good, not knowing what version of Asterisk, or seeing how you 
have it configured. How about showing your zaptel, zapata and relevant 
configs?

I have not experienced this on a standard asterisk yet, but I did on a
bristuff version (the latest 0.3.0pre-1 series, being n, o, p and q).
However, there's a patch to libpri for this in the mailing list.

Are you using the bristuff'ed version?

[asterisk-users] Possible Bug?

2006-07-05 Thread Kevin Savoy








I
believe Ive found a possible bug in the Zaptel channel drivers. Ive
been able to recreate this on a couple of servers. One with Asterisk 1.2.7.1
and 1.2.9.1,and also Zaptel 1.2.5 and Zaptel 1.2.6. I was testing a server
configuration with some T1s we have with ATT. When I disconnected
the ATT T1s we were no longer able to check voicemail. I noticed
then that no messages from the server could be heard. Playback, voicemail or
any other message the server would play to the caller on the phone. It would
display on the CLI that it was playing the message but nothing could be heard
and it would hang the call until it timed out. It took a lot of trial and error
before I figured out that if I unloaded all related files to the Zaptel drivers
the messages could then be heard. Reactivated the Zaptel with no T1s
attached and again it killed the messages. One server has a Wct4xxp card and
the other using dynamic with Redfones from Fonbridge. Both reacted the
same way.



This
would not be good if we had a fiber cut somewhere and then our users could no
longer use their voicemail or any other application that played sounds.



Can
anyone else recreate this? Do any of you think this is a bug? Should I submit a
bug report?



Ive
heard to submit a bug to send it to mantis. What is this and where or how do I
do this?



Thanks

RE: [Asterisk-Users] bristuff hangup issue

2006-06-29 Thread Kevin Savoy
I can also add that this happens on em_w lines as well. I've had issues
where callers start getting dead air when dialing out. Talking with the
phone company the lines were in an off-hook state even though Asterisk hung
up the call. I done exactly as below where I hang up before the other party
answers the call. I've also had where after I hang up the CLI shows the call
hanging up and then another call starts, starting simple switch, as if the
call was re-established but Asterisk doesn't know what to do with the call
and executes the s,1,hangup() on the call. This does NOT however always hang
up the call on the ATT side. The T1 still shows the call as off-hook even
though it's not in use. It seems random (at least I haven't figured out the
pattern yet) as to when the channel gets hung up properly on ATT's side and
when it's not.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] bristuff hangup issue

hi,

Just wanted to inform everyone, if you're using the latest bristuff's
you might (depends on the country!) have hangup issues.

The issue appears every time you dial an external number, and hangup
after letting it ring for a few times. Then the remote party keeps
ringing.

In some situations (we only encountered this while dialing to other *
servers) it keeps the line open on the telco-side. Meaning.. you pay
for it! The cdr on the calling asterisk (with the bug) doesn't
indicate a long connection time. However, the cdr on the called
asterisk does.. (I've seen several durations of over 20 hours) A show
channels doesn't indicate any active calls.

A quick fix has been posted a while ago by Marcel van der Boom (in
libpri/q931.c), this works. According to the release notes this should
have been applied to the latest bristuff, but be careful, the problem
still exists on bristuff-0.3.0-PRE-1q.

I have emailed junghanns.net to let them know.

Best regards,

stoffell

This didnt work for me either. I
tried using the patch at the link below and it didnt work either. 



If I were to guess what was happening
here, it would be when the call is forwarded by the phone Asterisk doesnt
know which device to send the call to. How does it know to open a Zap channel
and dial the command? What tells Asterisk to open Zap channel and dial the
number the phone had it its forward? Am I off track here?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Turning AAAH into a call-center

2006-05-16 Thread Kevin Savoy
Speaking as one of those call centers we are looking at doing a turn over to
Asterisk from our Nortel systems and are doing it ourselves. We've looked at
a lot of packages from Fonality, Signate, Aheeva and others and none fit our
needs. Each has good aspects but none have all of what we need. Below he
states extensive reporting in QueueMetrics. Yes and no. Extensive but
limited to a few areas. Agent level reporting doesn't go deep enough. There
is no DNIS reporting. In our business that is critical. We have 40 to 50
queues and some queues can have up to 1,000 toll free numbers pointed at it.
Our clients want to know how many calls on each individual toll free and all
the statistics that go with it. Talk time, abandons, thresholds, etc.

The commercial products are fine products but not in depth enough for a
larger call center. We have decided to look into doing it ourselves and
found that it wasn't really that difficult to find all the numbers we
needed. It left me feeling that these companies didn't really spend a lot of
time on reporting as we found all we needed pretty quickly. The previously
stated companies do fine with small call centers or call centers with only a
few clients.

We're having more issues with finding a phone to fit our business then we
are software for Asterisk. I'm disappointed that all these phone
manufacturers have never considered the call center when designing phones.
Nortel and Avaya have phones specifically designed for call centers. They
don't have handsets. Only headsets. Sadly none of the VoIP phones are
designed that way. 

Anyways that's my 2 cents on this. (if anyone cares) :)

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Call Center Phone with Auto Answer

2006-05-09 Thread Kevin Savoy








I see two problems with doing it this way.
One the agent is not paying attention and misses the announcement. Two we have
some queues that can have as many 800+ toll free numbers pointed at the same
queue. The agents need to be able to know which of the toll free numbers was
dialed. We do that in our current system by putting the last four digits of the
toll free on the phone display. With the below scenario it will not only have
to have a variable as to which account but also say out the digits of the last
four but only on certain accounts. That is possible I realize but messy. 



I need a combination of the two scenarios.
AgentCallBackLogin so that I can have a phone display but AgentLogin so that
there is no Call Back and just presents the call. Unless I can come up with
something Im guessing we are going to have to write some kind of program
that can do this instead.



Anyone have anything else to add? Thanks

Firstly the auto-answer on both the 301

have to look into this _ALERT_INFO variable. Not much experience with it here. 

Could you give me a dial plan example that
would work? Here is what we have now.



exten=3472,1,Answer()

exten=3472,2,Wait(1)

exten=3472,3,Playback(this-call-may-be-monitored-or-recorded)

exten=3472,4,SetCallerID(ICS)

exten=3472,5,Queue(ICS)



What can I add to this to make the phone
auto-answer? Thanks

I don't see any reason you can't use a polycom. You should be able to
solve your problem multiple ways. You can simply put the default ring on the
Polycom to autoanswer if that is the sole purpose, give it a second extension
to be used in the queue that is programmed to autoanswer, as a couple of
examples, or design your dialplan such that the appropriate _ALERT_INFO
variable is set where the queue is concerned.

Correct. We have to hit the answer
button. In a call center environment such as ours we dont want to give
the agents the option of not answering the call when they are logged in.

Firstly the auto-answer on both the 301

Ill have to look into this _ALERT_INFO variable. Not much experience
with it here. 

Could you give me a dial plan example that

I don't see any reason you can't use a polycom. You should be able to
solve your problem multiple ways. You can simply put the default ring on the
Polycom to autoanswer if that is the sole purpose, give it a second extension
to be used in the queue that is programmed to autoanswer, as a couple of
examples, or design your dialplan such that the appropriate _ALERT_INFO
variable is set where the queue is concerned.

presented to them there is no indication of what call this is. Being an inbound
call center we have 100s of clients. 1,000s of toll frees and

When you send the caller to the queue, you can pass the name of the
audio file to be played as the announcement to the agent when he gets
the call. Maybe you could use that and pre-record the name of the
customer, passing that audio file

something like exten =
8000,n,Queue(8000|t||FilenameOfTheCustomerName|300)

maybe you could also use festival

[Asterisk-Users] Dumping queue_log to MySQL

2006-05-05 Thread Kevin Savoy








Anyone
have a working solution for this? I played with the demo that came with
QueueMetrics to see how they were doing it and it was working for a bit but now
somehow every night it stopped. Perl and Tail are still running on the server
but the information is not dumping to the MySQL database. I dont get any
error messages anywhere telling me why it stops. As far as tail and perl are concerned
everything is fine. 

We
will be using this for a call center and need more reliability. Anyone got one
working?

May be I am not understanding... Why not use agentlogin and have the

Then you don't need auto-answer

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Auto Logout from queue

2006-05-04 Thread Kevin Savoy
I have tried using the autologoff in the agents.conf and it sort of works. I
set it to 5 seconds to test it and it has taken anywhere from 35 to 60
seconds to actually do something at which point it does indeed log out the
agent.

I don't want to be pestering agents with test calls to see if they are
indeed there so the below scripting isn't really practical in our
environment. 

Can anyone tell me why the agents.conf file setting doesn't work as
described? If it is set to 5 it should log them off after 5 seconds or so
not 30 - 60 seconds. I don't really want the call sitting at a logged out
agents phone for anymore then 5 seconds when there are other agents out
there waiting to take that call. Any ideas? 

Thanks

Ok.

First of all , be sure Redfone ethernet link and the
Asterisk ethernet link are both on the same switch segment.

Then try an pri intense debug on asterisk
console. I believe (not sure), this link is not at IP level but ethernet level
2

It can help to determine if packets get stucked into the
redphone or it is an issue related to Asterisk.



Hope it helps

blocking on incoming calls



We have a crossover from
telco to the CSU and a crossover from the CSU to the RedFone and then a regular
Ethernet cable from the RedFone to the Asterisk.

I believe it is important
to determine if the issue arrives at TDMoE level (RedPhone uses it to avoid a
direct T1 link with the box ) 

Or at PRI level. I am not
clear what kink of link bridges your redPhone to Asterisk. Is it an ethernet
link or a T1 crossover?

blocking on incoming calls



Ok here is our setup. We are using Asterisk 1.2.6 and
Zaptel 1.2.5. We are using RedFones FoneBridges. We also have a
Nortel Option 11C that we have hooked up to the Asterisk.



We have 3 T1s from MCI into one FoneBridge on
ports 1 to 3 using d4 and ami signaling. Then we have a local Qwest T1 on port
4 using esf and b8zs. All four are configured with em_w. We are, at this point,
only using Asterisk as an IVR with plans to move off the Nortel in the future
if we can make this work. We have a second FoneBridge with four PRIs
connected to our Nortel 11C using esf and b8zs and pri_net. The telco
T1s do not have D-Channels but the Nortel do. Calls come into the first
FoneBridge and into Asterisk. They are played a message about call recording
and then the call is transferred to the Nortel system to be processed by an
agent.



When we first fire this up all seems to work just
fine, calls come in, get the message and then transfer to the Nortel and on to
an agent. Everybody is happy.



The problem is after 5-20 minutes calls on the MCI
lines start getting busy signals. The Qwest line NEVER stops working. We would
place a few test calls on the MCI and get busy signals and then they start
going through again. A few minutes later they get busy signals again.



When we get the busy signals there is no response on
the Asterisk CLI with verbose at 10. Its as if the Asterisk is not ever
seeing the call.



What is annoying is that it works fine for a bit and
then starts hiccupping. 



Can anyone shed any light on where to look? Any help
would be desperately appreciated.



Please help.
