[Freeswitch-users] Trouble setting "caller_id_name", "caller_id_number" on an inbound call

[Brian Foster]

http://pastebin.freeswitch.org/18791 << Entire Call

It seems like a pretty common question, and there doesn't seem to be a good
answer to just cleaning up the caller id and doing a lookup. Even the
documentation on the wiki is wrong. To me, if anything, I'd like to get
something that's correct on the wiki in order to facilitate new users. I've
gotten this to work as well, and I don't remember having to go through much
to get it working. I wonder if something has changed?
