[Freeswitch-users] google voice connection going offline (mod_dingaling)

Sat Oct 8 20:57:06 MSD 2011

Hi Anthony,

thanks for the clarification and the suggestion. As an immediate
workaround I would like to try the "cron" approach you suggested. I
have therefore experimented a little bit with the chat api command.

My jingle_profiles/client.xml looks essentially as the one provided
with the example configuration:

  <profile type="client">
    <param name="name" value="$${xmpp_client_profile}"/>
    <param name="login" value="user1 at gmail.com/talk"/>
    <param name="password" value="XXXX"/>
    <param name="dialplan" value="XML"/>
    <param name="context" value="public"/>
    <param name="message" value="Jingle all the way"/>
    <param name="rtp-ip" value="$${bind_server_ip}"/>
    <param name="ext-rtp-ip" value="auto-nat"/>
    <param name="auto-login" value="true"/>
    <!-- SASL "plain" or "md5" -->
    <param name="sasl" value="plain"/>
    <!-- if the server where the jabber is hosted is not the same as
the one in the jid -->
    <param name="server" value="talk.google.com"/>
    <!-- Enable TLS or not -->
    <param name="tls" value="true"/>
    <!-- disable to trade async for more calls -->
    <param name="use-rtp-timer" value="true"/>
    <!-- default extension (if one cannot be determined) -->
    <param name="exten" value="888"/>
    <!-- VAD choose one -->
    <!-- <param name="vad" value="in"/> -->
    <!-- <param name="vad" value="out"/> -->
    <!--<param name="vad" value="both"/>-->
    <!--<param name="avatar" value="/path/to/tiny.jpg"/>-->
    <!--<param name="candidate-acl" value="wan.auto"/>-->
    <param name="local-network-acl" value="localnet.auto"/>
  </profile>

When I try to use the chat command at the fs_cli prompt I'm unable to
form a full jid and always get an error message from the remote
server. Here an example:

chat jingle|888 at xmppc|user2 at gmail.com|test

'from' attribute must be set to the user's full JID.</text>
  </error>
</message>

"xmppc" is the value of the variable "xmpp_client_profile" as in the
default config. I get the same error independently from what I set
before "@xmppc" in the from_jid. Differently from this, if as the
from_jid I set my explicit jid "user1 at gmail.com/talk" as in the
client.xml file I get the error:

2011-10-08 14:20:50.446696 [ERR] mod_dingaling.c:544 Invalid Profile gmail.com

Despite the fact that even a wrong message reaching the remote server
could work as a "keep alive" signal, I still would like to understand
the proper syntax.
I would be grateful if somebody could explain me what is the correct
syntax to use with chat and jingle?

Thank you!
Fede

P.S.: By the way, I'm now working on HEAD.
