[Freeswitch-users] Voicemail message File Retrieval on Remote Server

[Chris Tunbridge]

Jonathan, i just wanted to give my feedback in regaurds to this, i
recommend going a different route, such as GlusterFS or writing your own
voicemail in lua (really its not that hard!).

The issues that i ran into while trying to use http was that freeswitch
wasn't able to check that the file existed and it would break certain
functions such as the email voicemail and with things such as greetings, it
would end up either creating empty directories or not returning success
when saving.

I actually opened an issue about this a while back:
https://freeswitch.org/jira/browse/FS-7280  there was some discussion on
how it could be handled, however i think the easier route is to either use
a shared filesystem setup like GlusterFS or to write your own voicemail
module.
