[Freeswitch-users] Outbound mod event bug

[Steven Ayre]

Bug tracker is on http://jira.freeswitch.org - register and then create an issue.

The wiki link I posted before has plenty of helpful information.

It would be useful to add a description of how to reproduce the crash. If you can create a short simple script that triggers the crash that would be even better. Also a debug-level log and crucially the coredump which the wiki has instructions on collecting. The coredump shows exactly where/what triggered the crash.
