Re: [asterisk-users] AGI script commands

[Eric Wieling]

You have to read stdin to accept the data Asterisk sends when the AGI 
starts before you can send any AGI commands to Asterisk.   Also, "agi 
set debug on".

I never see any messages or commands sent from the script to stdout (to

any AGI libraries…just simply read/write to stdin/stdout.

I'm using ts-agi which has served me well. In the docs, it suggests
phonekeys is an array:
https://github.com/sergey12313/ts-agi/blob/master/src/__tests__/index.test.ts#L295

   ctx.streamFile("test", [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,"#","*"], 1000,)

But in fact, you're right! I just tried "12345*#" and it works. I learn
something new every day here!

Believe me, I'd love to be going full ARI right now, but with no way to get
the current offset of a track I have to stick with AGI.

Thanks again.

Maybe because ABCD are valid DTMF events? Maybe because 0 means playback

IIRC there are some inconsistencies in the AGI API that I stumbled across 
when I wrote my library back in '04. If you're not using a library, you 
may want to consider it.



AGI Rx << STREAM FILE "hello-world" "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,*,0,#"


'Comma' is not a valid 'digit' so this the same as '#*0123456789'

[asterisk-users] AGI: Why is stream file and wait for digit result ASCII, but get data is "normal"?

[Jonathan H]

Having been scratching my head the whole morning to find a bug, I now have
an A4 poster on the wall (not joking!) saying:

"get data" = *number*
"wait for digit" and "stream file" = *ascii !!!*

As you can see here:

AGI Rx << STREAM FILE "hello-world" "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,*,0,#"
AGI Tx >> 200 result=49 endpos=11840
AGI Rx << GET DATA hello-world -1 1
AGI Tx >> 200 result=1
AGI Rx << WAIT FOR DIGIT -1
AGI Tx >> 200 result=49

OK, I should have RTFM a bit harder, but this is VERY confusing! Out of
interest, any idea why it was done like this, and why someone would ever
need the ascii result from a keypress, rather than the keypress as given by
"get data"?

Just curious!

From res_agi.c:

enum agi_result {
AGI_RESULT_FAILURE = -1,
AGI_RESULT_SUCCESS,
AGI_RESULT_SUCCESS_FAST,
AGI_RESULT_SUCCESS_ASYNC,
AGI_RESULT_NOTFOUND,
AGI_RESULT_HANGUP,
};

so, AGI_RESULT_HANGUP == 4.

When Asterisk detects the hangup on the channel, it sends a SIGHUP to your 
AGI.


I always set a signal handler on SIGHUP and do what makes sense to my 
application: maybe some cleanup or syslog() before return() or exit(). 
Almost always exit().

I think this can happen by hanging up the call by one party, when SIGHUP
is sent to AGI script. PHP will exit on SIGHUP. It can be resolved by
initializing signal handler in PHP script (pcntl_signal) for SIGHUP and
doing nothing in it (return).

[asterisk-users] AGI Script Returning 4

[Alexander Perkins]

HI All.  I have a really strange issue that I'm two months into
troubleshooting; however, I cannot figure it out.  I have an AGI Script
(PHP) that runs every time a call comes into my Asterisk box.  Most of the
time, it runs without any issue.  However, every now and then, the PHP-AGI
script fails after it is executed and simply returns 'returning 4'.  I
verify the PHP script begins to run.  However, it appears to just stop.  I
have placed try/catch statements everywhere, but it does not seem to hit
them.

Just to verify, this is the same script running over and over with the same
parameter.

Any ideas/suggestions as of what can be happening?

Thanks,
Alex

These wiki pages are automatically generated from the source code[1], so 
the best place would be the Asterisk Issues Tracker[2]. Even better 
would be to attach a patch to the issue you create which beefs up the

[asterisk-users] AGI: "Get variable" returns variable VALUE vs "Get full variable" returns variable NAME - bug or my misunderstanding?

[Jonathan H]

Just trying out a node agi package (https://github.com/sergey12313/ts-agi/ ,
and it wasn't behaving as I expected, but when turning on agi debug, it
looks like it might be Asterisk (using 17.1.0)

This works as expected

AGI Rx << SET VARIABLE myVar "Hello World!!!"
AGI Tx >> 200 result=1
AGI Rx << GET VARIABLE myVar
AGI Tx >> 200 result=1 (Hello World!!!)

But  GET FULL VARIABLE just returns the NAME of the variable

AGI Rx << SET VARIABLE myVar "Hello World!!!"
AGI Tx >> 200 result=1
AGI Rx << GET FULL VARIABLE myVar
AGI Tx >> 200 result=1 (myVar)

Is this a bug, poor documentation, or my poor understanding of them?

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+17+AGICommand_get+full+variable
GET FULL VARIABLE VARIABLENAME CHANNEL NAME
Example return code: 200 result=1 (testvariable)

Yes, it is the same. The only difference is the code that actually receives 
notification of the DTMF and uses it. Have you enable DTMF debugging to see if 
there is a difference?

[asterisk-users] AGI GET DATA same DTMF code as Read cmd ?

[Gee Jacobs]

Hi, 

I am struggling with DTMF detection in Asterisk 16.3. 

With the Asterisk read dialplan command I get excellent detection. With the AGI 
GET DATA function the DTMF detection is however often bad.

Is the underlying DTMF detection code the same in both functions?

Thanks for your help.

Best

Gee

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI timeout option

[Matthew Fredrickson]

Hey,

I would suggest starting a new thread with this question instead of
inserting this into another existing thread like this.

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI timeout option

[Patrick Wakano]

Thanks everyone for the answers!
I did explored some options at the PHP level and probably will do something
in this direction, but in fact what I was really looking was something in
the Asterisk side, not in the script side.
Because in my opinion regardless of the language or AGI type, Asterisk
itself should be able to timeout a long running script and return to the
dialplan. However looks like there is nothing of this sort.

Kind regards,
Patrick Wakano

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI timeout option

[Eric Wieling]

I don't know AGIspeedy, but I have some PHP scripts where I set a 
connect timeout using streams.


Example using https, but should be easily adaptable to non-s http.:

$pbxsh_bin = @file_get_contents("https://blah.blah.blah;, FALSE, 
@stream_context_create(array('https' => array('timeout' => 5, 
"verify_peer"=>false, "verify_peer_name"=>false;

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI timeout option

[Tech Support]

Hello;

I’ve been using AGISpeedy for Perl for years. I just works, and it works 
really well. I’m a Perl programmer, not a PHP programmer, but it seems to me 
that you need the PHP equivalent of Perl’s ‘alarm’ command.  Just a thought.

Regards;

John V.

Subject: [asterisk-users] AGI timeout option

 

Hello list,

Hope you all doing  well!

 

Recently, I had an issue with a FastAGI PHP script, which under some specific 
situation would run into an infinity loop, consuming all CPU resources. This 
also was preventing Asterisk to terminated the call properly because it was 
waiting for the AGI to return... The application uses AGIspeedy to process the 
AGI calls, not sure if this can be affecting this situation somehow

Due to this problem I started looking for some option to timeout the AGI call 
and return to the dialplan after XYZ seconds and so this would protect Asterisk 
preventing the dialplan to get stuck due to some external script problem that 
is actually outside of Asterisk control. Does Asterisk provide some control of 
this sort? I searched around and could not find any. 

Any idea is appreciated!

 

Kind regards

Patrick Wakano

This is how a sysadmin opened up a web server to compromise a decade or 2

disabled by fiddling with the permissions.


More information may yield a clue.

1) ps -aef | grep asterisk | grep --invert-match grep

Its not about email - the Voicemail app allows you to record a message 
that gets dropped into multiple voicemail boxes.

Hi,

I have a voicemail broadcast AGI that has been running fine for years - it
collects extensions and then EXECs the Voicemail app, like this:

EXEC Voicemail \"%s\"

(%s is the extension list like AAA etc)

This works fine, but after leaving the message and pressing "#", I just get
"Thank you" and a hangup.  I would like to have the option to review,
re-record, or cancel.  It isn't clear how to enable this option via EXEC.  I
tried:

EXEC Voicemail \"%s,review=yes\"

but there is no effect at all.

Any clues?

Thanks,

[asterisk-users] AGI Exec Voicemail

[Jeff LaCoursiere]

Hi,

I have a voicemail broadcast AGI that has been running fine for years - 
it collects extensions and then EXECs the Voicemail app, like this:


EXEC Voicemail \"%s\"

(%s is the extension list like AAA etc)

This works fine, but after leaving the message and pressing "#", I just 
get "Thank you" and a hangup.  I would like to have the option to 
review, re-record, or cancel.  It isn't clear how to enable this option 
via EXEC.  I tried:


EXEC Voicemail \"%s,review=yes\"

but there is no effect at all.

Any clues?

Thanks,

j

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI: How to break out of AGI when stream_file escape_digits are detected in middle of long sequence of files?

[Jonathan H]

Arrrgh! You are correct, of course. I hadn't realised you could do it
that way - I was assuming it was a variable that was returned to the
dialplan/channel.

Some of the finer points of AGI are still a slight mystery to me!

Thank you very much - working perfectly now, with your help and the
following code. Thank you again.

escape_digits = str("*")
pressed_digit=agi.stream_file(promptFile,escape_digits)
if pressed_digit == "*":
sys.exit(0)

Hello,

as the docs on stream_file() mention it returns the digit if one was
pressed.
So you might want to try something like:

pressed_digit = agi.stream_file(promptFile,escape_digits)

in you case the raw value 48 is converted to its ascii equivalent so
pressed_digit will have the value 0

[asterisk-users] AGI: How to break out of AGI when stream_file escape_digits are detected in middle of long sequence of files?

[Jonathan H]

For reasons best known to myself, I call a python agi (PYST2 - love
it!) which streams a series of very short files in quick succession.

Like this:

escape_digits = str("0")
agi.stream_file(promptFile,escape_digits)

and this is what I see on the AGI debug:

AGI Tx >> 200 result=0 endpos=6784
AGI Rx << STREAM FILE
/home/DefaultPrompts/en_GB/female/wx/low "0" 0
--  Playing
'/home/DefaultPrompts/en_GB/female/wx/low.alaw' (escape_digits=0)
(sample_offset 0) (language 'en_GB')
AGI Tx >> 200 result=48 endpos=1440

The FIRST line is a file that finished normally, with result=0, the
LAST line is a file that was interrupted, and receives result=48 from
asterisk.

Yes, zero stops the file playing, but it just goes onto the next file.

So, how do I get that variable? It doesn't become available in python,
and trying to get it via either

agi.env[result']
agi.get_variable('result')

just makes python choke and the AGI quits. That would be fine if it
was a result of result being 48!

I feel like I'm going slightly bonkers here because it's something so
obvious, and yet I've googled so hard over this!

Thanks.

[asterisk-users] AGI() or System() - Play audio in the background

[Bruno Correia]

Hello,

I need to leave an audio running in the background while other commands are
executed. I have an AGI that does some checks and tamed around a5s, need
to leave a audio running in the meantime. Does anyone know any
way? already I tried hard and so far nothing.

I tried to tip below using MusicOnHold, but it worked. It is indefinitely
on MusicOnHold() application.

[asterisk-users] AGI Perl Question

[CDR]

From inside a Perl script, Asterisk 1.4, I am trying to get this information
$xipaddress = $AGI-get_full_variable('CHANNEL(recvip)');
or using pan get_variable
But I get nothing. How do I read the IP address of origin from an AGI Perl
script?
I cannot update the version, for this is an old system that I am being paid
to keep it running.

[asterisk-users] AGI and AMI in PHP -- What's current?

[Steve Edwards]

I'm writing some code that needs to access AMI in PHP. (I'll probably be 
doing AGI later as well.)


I'm looking at phpagi (2.20), but it hasn't been updated since 2010 and 
appears to be a bit behind current Asterisk -- No event handler for event 
'fullybooted'.


What PHP framework/library are you using -- and why?

Other than a few minor patches, we use stock phpagi.  If you want simple, 
phpagi is the way to go.

 Eric is correct. There is no way to send dtmf while the call has

 My AGI line is the following

 Eric is correct. There is no way to send dtmf while the call has not been
 answered.



 But us very confusing the read command, in specific  option = n(noanswer)
 to read digits even if the line is not up


 My AGI line is the following

  $AGI-exec(READ,umenu,VARXX,1,n,2,7);

 The command works, but there is no dtmf negotiation


  $AGI-exec(READ,umenu,VARXX,1,,2,7);

 The command works, but there is a kind of answer

 What is the purpose of this noanswer option in a read command when it is
 imposible to read?.

 Is there any way to negotiate with the end user in this early media
 situation?



 Thanks in advance.

 Generally the only thing you are allowed to do before answer is send
 audio.  You can’t receive audio and can’t receive DTMF.   I assume it is to
 prevent people from doing exactly what you  are trying to do --- trying to
 have two way communications without paying for the call.

 Hi Guys..


 I am making an anoucement machine that is not allowed to answer the call
 due to a billing issue.
 I found that Playback with noanwser is usefull in this case.

 $AGI-exec('Playback',$message,noanswer)}


 But when i request some values to the user with get_data, i think there is
 an answer anywere.

 Is there a way to get_data without answering the call?

 Thanks in advance!!

Re: [asterisk-users] agi get_data noanswer

[Tech Support]

What you may want to check out is the PlayTones and Ringing applications in 
your dial plan. Asterisk will answer the call, but your users won't know that 
because all they hear is the call still ringing. After a certain amount of time 
passes, you can send them directly to voicemail, hangup, run your scripts, or 
anything else you want to do with the call. My dial plan snippet looks like 
this. Just an option. 

 

exten = s,n(ringing),Answer

exten = s,n,PlayTones(ring)

exten = s,n,Ringing

exten = s,n,Wait(${TIMEOUT})

exten = s,n,GotoIf($[${BLOCKDEST} = 3]?s-NA-VOICEMAIL,1)

exten = s,n,GotoIf($[${CUSTCALLBLOCKACTION} = 3]?s-NA-VOICEMAIL,1) ; 

exten = s,n,PlayTones(congestion)

exten = s,n,Congestion(10)

exten = s,n,Hangup

John V.

Hi John.
I am making an inteligent annoucement resouce for a big ericsson switch. Is
just an ivr with agi applications.
The tricky thing try to make asterisk not to send answer. The perl
application with agi commands must be executed with out answering.

Something like

exten = 6009,1,Progress()
exten = 6009,n,Set(__INICIA=${EPOCH})
exten = 6009,n,Set(CHANNEL(language)=sc)
exten = 6009,n,AGI(anouncement.pl)
exten = 6009,n,Hangup()

Thanks anyway.

[asterisk-users] AGI Record File / what does randomerror mean? res_agi.c / line 2377

[Thorsten Göllner]

Hi,

I have a question about this here:

Asterisk-Version: 11.10.2
File: res/res_agi.c
Line: 2377

[...]
 static int handle_recordfile(struct ast_channel *chan, AGI *agi, int 
argc, const char * const argv[])

2304 {
2305 struct ast_filestream *fs;
2306 struct ast_frame *f;
2307 struct timeval start;
2308 long sample_offset = 0;
2309 int res = 0;
2310 int ms;
[...]
2365 /* backward compatibility, if no offset given, arg[6] would 
have been
2366  * caught below and taken to be a beep, else if it is a 
digit then it is a

2367  * offset */
2368 if ((argc 6)  (sscanf(argv[6], %30ld, sample_offset) 
!= 1)  (!strchr(argv[6], '=')))
2369 res = ast_streamfile(chan, beep, 
ast_channel_language(chan));

2370
2371 if ((argc  7)  (!strchr(argv[7], '=')))
2372 res = ast_streamfile(chan, beep, 
ast_channel_language(chan));

2373
2374 if (!res)
2375 res = ast_waitstream(chan, argv[4]);
2376 if (res) {
2377 ast_agi_send(agi-fd, chan, 200 result=%d 
(randomerror) endpos=%ld\n, res, sample_offset);

2378 } else {
2379 fs = ast_writefile(argv[2], argv[3], NULL, O_CREAT 
| O_WRONLY | (sample_offset ? O_APPEND : 0), 0, AST_FILE_MODE);

2380 if (!fs) {
2381 res = -1;
2382 ast_agi_send(agi-fd, chan, 200 result=%d 
(writefile)\n, res);

2383 if (sildet)
2384 ast_dsp_free(sildet);
2385 return RESULT_FAILURE;
2386 }

In line 2377 I find randomerror. And in fact I get this error 
sometimes in my AGI-Scripts but can not reproduce them by my own.


Can anybody tell me please, when this message will be fired? I do not 
really understand this source at this point. The message will be sent, 
when res is true (or larger 0). res should be set in the lines 
before. MAYBE res is 0 in line 2377 when the call hangs up at this point?


Best regards
-Thorsten-

Hey all
  
 Please disregard my question. I was looking for the word Verbose to show

 There was no real issue it is working just different than what I was 
expecting.

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI GET DATA behavior

[Hoggins!]

Hello,

Yes, it is fairly simple, really.

And I found out about the return code of Asterisk enabling the agi
debugging, precisely.
The documentation of the GET DATA entry specifies that Asterisk should
either return -1, nothing, or the actual result of what the user
entered, but never 0, am I right ?
(http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/get+data)

The problem is that Asterisk's behavior is not constant : 1 time out of
4 or 5, without ANY change in the behavior of the user, Asterisk simply
does not wait for the user input, and returns 0 before the timeout.

0) Please don't top-post.

1) Reduce your script to the smallest example that illustrates your issue.

2) Post your script along with console output (with 'core agi set debug 
on,' 'core set debug 99,' and 'core set verbose 99') of a successful and a 
failed call.

[asterisk-users] AGI GET DATA behavior

[Hoggins!]

Hello all,

I have a strange problem with a very simple AGI script, using the GET
DATA command.

When using this command, Asterisk often returns 0 as a result after a
GET DATA beep 5000 command, without even waiting for input from the
calling party.
It is quite random : sometimes Asterisk behaves exactly as documented,
and sometimes it gives 200 result=0 without any reason.

Do you have an idea of what might be happening ? I'm using version 11.6.0.

Hoggins!

Whereas database connection is fine, when I run agi debug I see only Tx
packets not Rx packets, firewall is also OFF.

Any other specific reason why there is no Rx.

The same script working in one more Asterisk machine.

[asterisk-users] AGI return codes

[Ishfaq Malik]

Hi

Does anyone know what the different return codes from AGI script
execution mean? I'm getting a lot of

AGI Script script-name completed, returning 4

I'm using asterisk 1.8.7.0

Thanks in advance

You need to check the exit statements within the AGI scripts in question.  
Different exit values usually mean different things have happened.  Typically 0 
is the most favourable exit value, i.e. everything O.K., and non-zero exit 
values indicate errors.

If the authors of the scripts were nice, then they will have provided a list 
of possible exit values in the documentation, or in the script comments.

I wrote the script! I've not put exit status values in it either. 

I've been having a look the source for res_agi_c (as a non c coder) and
there is a variable called returnstatus which is instantiated with the
value AGI_RESULT_SUCCESS which I assume is a constant defined elsewhere.
This variable is where the 4 is coming from.

There are other constants referred to as well so I'm trying to work out
which one equates to 4 to give me more of an idea of why the script is
failing.

Return codes can be set by you, or can be returned from the scripting language 
you work in.

If you were working in Perl, for instance, a return code of 4 means Interrupted 
System Call.

Check the documentation for your language for a better idea. Also try running 
your script as the user that Asterisk runs as. Maybe asterisk doesn't have 
permissions to execute the script. One way to do this is via the sudo 
command, e.g. sudo -u asterisk path to agi-script

Hi Andrew

Thanks for the advice, I will look into it (I'm using php)

The script executes successfully over 99% of the time, it is run very
very frequently. I'm trying to track down why the 1% failures are
happening which is always a bit trickier than tracking down why a script
always fails!

In these cases it's always (very) good to think about attaching standard 
debugging tools like strace to the asterisk process or your AGI to see what's 
going on.

The use of good debug logging (make sure you output information to a file on 
the file system) to help you keep track of what your script is doing will also 
be very useful, and a lot less headachy than attaching strafe to a php or 
asterisk process.

Hi Andrew

I have an even simpler fix for this particular script. This one isn't
really a true AGI script, all it's doing is taking the arguments
presented to it and logging them in a db table.

I'm going to try the system command instead, should have done that in
the first place but the AGI command was just my 'goto place'...

Thanks for all the advice though

[Asghar Mohammad]

Hi ishfaq,
if you want just loging some info into db you can do in dialplan without
any AGI.
i am doing billing on the fly in dialplan and mysql for every single user
without AGI and enhanced call capacity almost double.
let me know you need some examples.

I bet there's a problem with the data, which is causing the INSERT to fail 
sometimes.  Get your script to log its inputs to a file; then log the INSERT 
as soon as you've constructed it, and the query status immediately after the 
query has been performed.  If the query fails, the script won't get far enough 
to log the status.

By the way, it will almost certainly turn out to be caused by speech marks in 
the data.  That's about as reliable a long-distance diagnosis for a PHP / SQL 
issue as saying a central heating fault is due to the diverter valve.

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI

[Gustavo Salvador]

Thanks,

You are right, the bash version should be:

#!bin/bash

#Get and spawn AGI variables
declare -a array
while read -e ARG  [ $ARG ]; do
array=(` echo $ARG | sed -e 's/://'`)
export ${array[0]}={array[1]}
done
echo EXEC \Dial\ \DAHDI/g2/$agi_dnid\

#Get execution answer
answer=read line

Yes, it could also be written using C instead.

Gustavo

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI

[Gustavo Salvador]

Hi, 
Thank you. The reason I have not to use an AGI library and also use bash shells 
is because the asterisk box I'm working on, have not AGI library, there is 
installed on a basic first version of Centos, and it is not an asterisk pure 
box. It's from a vendor, and also have some annoyances specially with the 
settings and configuration files. And I can not upgrade it, because it is 
running production.

By the way, I have just get what I need.
The bash shell if anyone is interested is:

#!/usr/bin/bash
echo EXEC \Dial\ \DAHDI/g2/$1\
read line

AGI invocation:
AGI(agiFile.agi,${CALLERID(num)})

Regards,

Gustavo

 This implies that you need to read up a bit on the AGI protocol. The second*

 You can pass command line parameters to your AGI when you execute the agi()

 Your AGI can then access the command line arguments as you would

 Personally, I dislike 'positional' parameters. I prefer to use the

Can we at least pretend to follow the protocol? :)

while   [ -s $(read) ]
do
:
done

# dial the number from the command line
echo exec dial dahdi/g2/$1

# ignore the response
read

# (end of agiFile.agi)

At least this way, the 'next guy' won't pull out his hair wondering why 
the response to 'dial' is 'agi_request: agiFile.agi'


BTW, you do not have to name an AGI 'example.agi'. 'example.sh' or just 
'example' will do just fine.


If you don't have PHP or Perl, how about C? You could always compile on a 
VM on another box.

 -- SIP/INCONCERT-35d2AGI Script agi-test.agi completed, returning 0
 
 I looked through my AGIs and find I always set channel variables and let the 
 dialplan do the actual dial().
 
 1) Is your AGI exiting before the dial() completes?
 Yes.
  
 2) If you execute the same dial() command from the 'AGI debug output' (which 
 should show the expanded variables) in your dialplan, does that yield andy 
 clues?
 How I do that? I just use the AMI command originate. Executing this with the 
 protocol already works, but not ring.
 
 3) If you use another technology like SIP can you enable SIP debugging and 
 observe the SIP dialog?
 I can not use SIP because the call goes out to E1.

[asterisk-users] AGI Script

[Gustavo Salvador]

 
 Hi every body,
 
 Please if some one could help me with this:
 I'm writing an AGU Perl Script which basically makes a call using an 
 extension provided by other asterisk box to an E1. The asterisk version is 
 1.6.0.28, so it hasn't the Wellington know AGI class. The code is as follows:
 
 =
 #!/usr/bin/perl
 use strict;
 
 my %AGI;
 :
 print EXEC Dial(DAHDI/g2/$AGI{dnid},,W);
 =
 
 When dialplan executes the AGI, asterisk throw the following error: Dropping 
 incompatible voice fraile on SIP/INCONCERT-4796 of formar ulaw since our 
 native format has changed to 0x8 (alaw).
 
 And connection is never make.
 
 It's the code OK?, I'm newbie on asterisk, and really don't know what is 
 going wrong.
 
 Regards,
 
 Gustavo

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI Script

[Gustavo Salvador]

Thanks,

But SIP uses the caller box to send the call to the second box where is running 
the AGI script, the second box uses DAHDI to routes the call to E1. I've tested 
the codec routing a call between a E1 extension and a local one with the 
originate extension command and works.
So that is because I'm loose with this

Regards,

Gustavo

Is this your entire script or just a snippet? If this is all, this is not 
an AGI.


An AGI is an executable that follows the AGI protocol. At a minimum, this 
means:


1) Read the AGI variables from STDIN.

2) Write an AGI request to STDOUT.

3) Read the AGI response from STDIN.

4) Repeat steps 2  3 as needed.

Asterisk creates the process executing your AGI and sends a bunch of cruft 
to it via the process's STDIN. If you don't read this, even if you don't 
need to use the variables, your AGI will not execute correctly and 
reliably.


If you do not read the response after every request, your AGI will not 
execute correctly and reliably.


Most people use an established AGI library since nobody understands the 
implications of the protocol correctly the first time.


Can you enable AGI debugging on the Asterisk console and see if that 
yields any clues?


When dialplan executes the AGI, asterisk throw the following error: 
Dropping incompatible voice fraile on SIP/INCONCERT-4796 of formar 
ulaw since our native format has changed to 0x8 (alaw).


(Actual 'cut-n-paste' is better than 'retyping' console output.)

I think if you take another look, this is a warning, not an error. No big 
deal, it means just what it says, just ignore it.

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI Script

[Gustavo Salvador]

Thanks Steve,

That was just a snippet, the complete script is as follow:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;


$|=1;


# Setup some variables

my %AGI; my $tests = 0; my $fail = 0; my $pass = 0;

my $key; my $value;


while(STDIN) {

chomp;

last unless length($_);

if (/^agi_(\w+)\:\s+(.*)$/) {

$AGI{$1} = $2;

}

}


print STDERR AGI Environment Dump:\n;

foreach my $i (sort keys %AGI) {

print STDERR  -- $i = $AGI{$i}\n;

}


sub checkresult {

my ($res) = @_;

my $retval;

$tests++;

chomp $res;

if ($res =~ /^200/) {

$res =~ /result=(-?\d+)/;

if (!length($1)) {

print STDERR FAIL ($res)\n;

$fail++;

} else {

print STDERR PASS ($1)\n;

$pass++;

}

} else {

print STDERR FAIL (unexpected result '$res')\n;

$fail++;

}

}


my $count = keys(%AGI);

print EXEC Dial('DAHDI/g2/$AGI{dnid},,W');

my $result = STDIN;

checkresult($result);

There I'm not using the AGI class because as test not works ( seems to me 
because it is not there within this asterisk version) . I have tested the 
Script communication with asterisk works making it to execute a voice prompt.

I have run asterisk in verbose mode, and also set on the debug, but the only 
clue I have is just this error.

Regards,

Gustavo

 Make sure Asterisk has access to your AGI script, and make it
 executable (chmod u+x agi.php). Also make sure it has shebang
 (!#/usr/bin/php)


 Besides  that you'll need to create SIP users and define their *
 context=my-agi* and in your context call this AGI.

 [my-agi]
 exten = _X.,1,NOOP(Invoking AGI Script now)
 same = n,AGI(my-agi-filename.php)
 same = n,NOOP(Any other post AGI things here)
 same = n,Hangup()



 *and the second one, how can limit users to call just my number in
 list at database and permit to call another numbers.*
 *
 *

 That depends on logic in your script, you can also separate users by
 contexts


 Alternative to the above approach there are other possibilities, like
 applying a GotoIF() condition in the *[my-agi]*  dialplan code above
 restricting a particluar number,  or Instead of *_X. *in the above code
 implement some regex to enable only local area dialing i.e

 exten = _78XX,1,NOOP(Invoking AGI Script now for dialled string
 starting with 78 and 8 digit in length)

 If you don't like any of the above because you've a list of numbers
 which should be dialled only in a DB.table then in your php-AGI script do
 some restrictions based on that table.

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI command

[Eric Wieling]

Stop Asterisk.  Start Asterisk as asterisk -cvvvd then in the CLI issue the 
command agi set debug on.

Starting Asterisk as this command will make it run in the foreground and show 
you STDERR.  You do not normally get to see STDERR when running AGIs in 
Asterisk.Since Asterisk is running in the foreground, if you do a ctrl-S to 
stop output it pauses Asterisk's call processing.  Remember that.  

This should help you figure out what is wrong.Personally, I use the PHPAGI 
library and don't worry about all the low level stuff.

This. It also gives you a nice logging function you can use to output 
debug information to the asterisk CLI so you don't have to kill and 
start asterisk interactively.

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI command

[Muhammad]

*Hi,
sorry to delay.**

here is my answers.
 1) What does the Asterisk console log look like when you try to execute
the AGI?
**first let me know how can I execute the AGI?**

 2) If you enter '/usr/bin/php -v', what do you get? I get:
**$ php -v give me:
PHP 5.1.6 (cli) (built: Nov 29 2010 16:47:37)

**but not in path /usr/bin/php -v**

3) If you enter the following command in a shell, what do you get?

sudo -u asterisk /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/testAGI.php

**Asterisk already running on /var/run/asterisk/asterisk.ctl.  Use
'asterisk -r' to connect.**

 Your PHP script executes correctly on my dev box, but I would change the
 log file path to something absolute like '/tmp/agi_log.log' so we know
 where it is.

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI command

Thanks Steve.

but explain me more about your dialplan codes. Im a beginner.


exten = _X.,1,NOOP(Invoking AGI Script now)

what is Invoking AGI Script now and what should I do in this method?

what is _X. it seems it is dynamic extension number.
and n?

 Make sure Asterisk has access to your AGI script, and make it executable
 (chmod u+x agi.php). Also make sure it has shebang (!#/usr/bin/php)


 Besides  that you'll need to create SIP users and define their *

 [my-agi]
 exten = _X.,1,NOOP(Invoking AGI Script now)
 same = n,AGI(my-agi-filename.php)
 same = n,NOOP(Any other post AGI things here)
 same = n,Hangup()



 *and the second one, how can limit users to call just my number in list
 at database and permit to call another numbers.*

 That depends on logic in your script, you can also separate users by

 Alternative to the above approach there are other possibilities, like
 applying a GotoIF() condition in the *[my-agi]*  dialplan code above
 restricting a particluar number,  or Instead of *_X. *in the above code
 implement some regex to enable only local area dialing i.e

 exten = _78XX,1,NOOP(Invoking AGI Script now for dialled string
 starting with 78 and 8 digit in length)

 If you don't like any of the above because you've a list of numbers which
 should be dialled only in a DB.table then in your php-AGI script do some
 restrictions based on that table.

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI command

[Salman Zafar]

You seriously need to go through Asterisk text books available online or
at-least read the manual.

NoOP is just a No Operation, so its just printing text in your case.

To execute an AGI you need to call it from dialpan like exten =
_X.,n,AGI(name_of_AGI), agi should be appropriate directory, which I reckon
you already know.

Make sure that the user executing the Asterisk process can execute your 
script. Ownership (user and group), directory permissions, and file 
permissions all play a part.

Re: [asterisk-users] AGI command

[Muhammad]

***When you say 'doesn't work' do you mean 'doesn't do what I want' or
'does not execute?'*

I mean I do all steps in Mr. Nir presentation documents and not works.

Here is my php code:

#!/usr/bin/php -q
?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ob_implicit_flush(false);
set_time_limit(6);
$stdin = fopen('php://stdin', 'r');
$stdlog = fopen('agi_log.log', 'w');
$debug = false;
/* Read input from Asterisk and output via $astOutput */
function astRead()
{
global $stdin, $debug, $stdlog;
$astOutput = str_replace(\n, , fgets($stdin, 4096));
if ($debug) fputs($stdlog, read: $input\n);
return $astOutput;
}
/* Write AGI command to Asterisk */
function astWrite($agiCommand)
{
global $debug, $stdlog;
if ($debug) fputs($stdlog, write: $agiCommand\n);

echo $agiCommand.\n;
}
/* Handling execution input from Asterisk */
while (!feof($stdin))
{
$temp = fgets($stdin);
$temp = str_replace(\n,,$temp);
$s = explode(:,$temp);
$agivar[$s[0]] = trim($s[1]);
if ($temp == )
{
break;
}
}
/* Operational Code starts here */

astWrite(STREAM FILE demo-congrats #);
astRead();
/* Say the number 123456 */
astWrite(SAY NUMBER 123456 #);
astRead();

/* Finalization of AGI script and clean-ups */
fclose ($stdin);
fclose ($stdlog);
exit(0);

and have wrote in extension_custom.conf:

[from-internal-custom]
include = testAGI

[testAGI]
exten = 147,1,Answer
exten = 147,2,AGI(testAGI.php)
exten = 147,3,Hangup


147 is my extension.
operators can call a number via their extension(each extension may use for
one or more users?)

I register extension 147 in my client softphone and call a number. what
happen after that?

 When you say 'doesn't work' do you mean 'doesn't do what I want' or 'does
 not execute?'

 If you enable AGI debugging, what does the Asterisk console log look like?

 Did you use an established PHP library or 'roll your own?'

 A good way to test an AGI is to create a text file containing all the
 cruft (the AGI 'environment') Asterisk sends to the AGI along with the
 expected responses. Then you can execute your AGI completely external from
 Asterisk with a shell command line like:

 /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/my-**firs-agi example environment

 *Thanks Zohair!
 I wrote some php code to working with AGI, but it dosen't work.

 inside /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin  so, what should I do after that. *


 Make sure Asterisk has access to your AGI script, and make it executable
 (chmod u+x agi.php). Also make sure it has shebang (!#/usr/bin/php)


Besides  that you'll need to create SIP users and define their *
context=my-agi* and in your context call this AGI.

[my-agi]
exten = _X.,1,NOOP(Invoking AGI Script now)
same = n,AGI(my-agi-filename.php)
same = n,NOOP(Any other post AGI things here)
same = n,Hangup()



 *and the second one, how can limit users to call just my number in list
 at database and permit to call another numbers.*
 *
 *

 That depends on logic in your script, you can also separate users by
 contexts


Alternative to the above approach there are other possibilities, like
applying a GotoIF() condition in the *[my-agi]*  dialplan code above
restricting a particluar number,  or Instead of *_X. *in the above code
implement some regex to enable only local area dialing i.e

exten = _78XX,1,NOOP(Invoking AGI Script now for dialled string
starting with 78 and 8 digit in length)

If you don't like any of the above because you've a list of numbers which
should be dialled only in a DB.table then in your php-AGI script do some
restrictions based on that table.

 you need to run full command, like

When you say 'doesn't work' do you mean 'doesn't do what I want' or 'does 
not execute?'


If you enable AGI debugging, what does the Asterisk console log look like?

Did you use an established PHP library or 'roll your own?'

A good way to test an AGI is to create a text file containing all the 
cruft (the AGI 'environment') Asterisk sends to the AGI along with the 
expected responses. Then you can execute your AGI completely external from 
Asterisk with a shell command line like:


/var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/my-firs-agi example environment

[asterisk-users] AGI exec command

[Vieri]

Hi,

I'm trying to understand how AGI works.
I'm using php-agi library from sf.net.

*CLI agi show commands
  Yes   exec   Executes a given Application

*CLI core show application set

My PHP-AGI script contains:

$AGI-exec(Set, CUSTOM_VAR=2);
$AGI-exec(NoOp, \DEBUG - ${CUSTOM_VAR}\);

An AGI debug from *CLI shows:

SIP/4053-004dAGI Rx  EXEC Set CUSTOM_VAR=2
-- AGI Script Executing Application: (Set) Options: (CUSTOM_VAR=2)
SIP/4053-004dAGI Tx  200 result=0
SIP/4053-004dAGI Rx  EXEC NoOp DEBUG - 
-- AGI Script Executing Application: (NoOp) Options: (DEBUG - )

Why isn't CUSTOM_VAR set?

I know I could use agi command set variable but I'd like to know why the 
above code doesn't seem to work.

Also, there's no AGI-specific command for NoCDR(). So I did something like this:

$AGI-exec(NoCDR, );

but the CDR was written to cdr-csv/Master.csv so I'm assuming I'm doing 
something wrong with the agi exec command.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Vieri

Never mind. Figured it out.
Sorry for the noise.

[asterisk-users] AGI and AMI stuff.

[Ken D'Ambrosio]

Hey, all.  I'm interested in doing some simple, very specific web pages 
for some of my users -- things like call groups, setting forwarding, and 
for the receptionist to transfer calls and see calls.  Probably do this 
in Ruby or PHP, though I'm open-minded.  Anyway, if someone could point 
me to some documentation -- dead tree, electronic, whatever -- that 
gives some fairly in-depth detail on this, I'd be most appreciative.


Thanks!

-Ken
