[asterisk-users] Re : Controlling calls
Hello Steve,
Thanks again for the effort.
I tried your dialplan like this in my extention:
exten= 777,1, Goto(absolute-timeout-test,777,1)
[absolute-timeout-test]
exten = T,1, verbose(1,[${CONTEXT}:${EXTEN}])
exten = T,n, hangup()
exten = h,1, verbose(1,[${CONTEXT}:${EXTEN}])
exten = h,n, hangup()
exten = 777,1, verbose(1,[${CONTEXT}:${EXTEN}])
exten = 777,n, set(TIMEOUT(absolute)=10)
exten = 777,n, dial(IAX2/400)
exten = 777,n, hangup()
Then user IAX/200 calls 777, here is my output:
debian*CLI set verbose 3
Verbosity is at least 3

I tried your statement in my extension like this:
(context or dialplan would be more correct than extension.)
exten = 777,n, set(TIMEOUT(absolute)=10)
exten = 777,n, dial(iax2/400)
exten = 777,n, hangup()
If peer (400) answers the call the call persists, no autohangup is made after
10 senconds (absolute timeout), but the if peer does not hangup, it rings for
10 seconds and stops.
This is unexpected. When the absolute timer expires, the call should jump to
the T extension in the context. If there isn't a T extension, the call
should hang up.
Please use a goto(absolute-timeout-test,777,1) to execute the following
context with the CLI verbosity set to at least 3:
[absolute-timeout-test]
exten = T,1, verbose(1,[${CONTEXT}:${EXTEN}])
exten = T,n, hangup()
exten = h,1, verbose(1,[${CONTEXT}:${EXTEN}])
exten = h,n, hangup()
exten = 777,1, verbose(1,[${CONTEXT}:${EXTEN}])
exten = 777,n, set(TIMEOUT(absolute)=10)
exten = 777,n, dial(sip/201)
exten = 777,n, hangup()
And compare your console output to:
[absolute-timeout-test:777]

I'm calling from SIP/501 to SIP/201, but your output should be similar.
While following the console output, I realize this solution may not do what you
want. The absolute timer starts counting when it is set, not when the peer
answers the call. I don't know if this difference is important to your
application.
Looking at the dial application options again, there is S(x) - Hang up the
call after 'x' seconds *after* the called party has answered the call. This
may be more appropriate for you. I'd still recommend looking up the peer and
duration in the AGI, set channel variables, and then do the dial command in the
dialplan.
Are you saying that when you execute the dial application from your AGI
Asterisk dials the peer and when peer answers they get dead air for 13
seconds before being bridged with the caller?
No, the

You don't have a peer named 777 in iax.conf do you?
The 777 has no special meaning, I just used it because you used it in your
first post.
Did you catch the note about the dial S option in my previous post?

[asterisk-users] Re : Controlling calls
Thank you for the reply.
1- yes i need to call my agi script; because i have to process some tasks with
my DBMS on the caller.
2- yes it is my first script, While very simple, the AGI protocol is easy to
violate i did not get your meaning.
So do you have a perfect solution?

I tried either in php or in java but no success.

the script is running but it does not hangup.
Second solution,i tried this :
exten = 777,1,Dial(IAX2/400,G(myscript))
exten =777,n(myscript),AGI(agi://localhost/sc.agi)
in sc.agi in this time i do not call exec(Dial,IAX2/400) statment;
but the audio stops, no ringing.
Do you have any solution.
0) Please post requests with a more meaningful subject. There are lots of
ways to control calls.
1) Do you need to call an AGI? Can you use an absolute timeout of 1
minute?
2) Is this your first AGI? While very simple, the AGI protocol is easy to
violate.
3) You are executing FastAGI. Is this required by the Java package you
are using?
4) I'm just a 1.2 weenie and I've never used G, but won't the G option
transfer the calling party to myscript and the called party to
myscript+1?
5) Not related to your issue, but spinning on the channel status doesn't
look like a good idea. Adding a wait(x) to your while loop may help with
CPU resource consumption.
6) More detail like what version of Asterisk and some console output with
AGI debugging enabled may help.

Can you set an absolute timeout either in your script or before you call your script? 2- yes it is my first script, While very simple, the AGI protocol is easy to violate i did not get your meaning. The AGI protocol is implemented by issuing requests and receiving responses via STDOUT and STDIN respectively. (FastAGI uses network sockets.) Most programmer's first fail is not reading the AGI environment from STDIN first. Next, they fail to realize that for every request, they must read the response. Lastly, they try to debug their AGI by reading something from STDIN or writing something to STDOUT, not remembering that STDIN and STDOUT are connected to Asterisk, not their console. I always recommend that programmers use an existing library rather than developing their own. The chance of success is much higher. Most AGI problems I have seen (mine and others) can be resolved by understanding the above and enabling AGI debugging on the console and observing the output. So do you have a perfect solution? There are no perfect solutions :) Setting an absolute timeout sounds pretty good to me. It's simple and obvious. You may consider setting a channel variable with the peer dial string in your AGI and keeping the dial command in the dialplan. It seems like a better approach to me, but then I've only had 1 cup of tea this morning and can't explain why coherently. -- Thanks in advance, - Steve Edwards sedwa...@sedwards.com Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST Newline Fax: +1-760-731-3000-- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
