Hello, When I use eavesdropping in FreeSWITCH, the sound quality is really bad. Is there any way to improve it? Is this a known problem? Br/ Maciej Aniserowicz

Hi Peter Ok, I got the net changed in acl.conf.xml. I then tried setting console_loglevel, but I don't see any output on the console, it could very well be because it's a FreeBSD, and has very limited console. But after a restart it registers! So for some reason it needed a nudge there, very interesting. So now I have a local extension registered, and a provider registered, now I just need them to communicate. As I understand it, that's the dialplan I have to look at. I only have one provider hooked up, so a dial should be simple, right? It as Order 001 Condition ^0(.\d+)$ action bridge As I understand it, it should react on the 0 (for outside dialing) and then strip it And the action bridges the call to the outside. But I guess I'm missing something, because I just get a 'temporarily unavailable' shown in the xlite. >>> 06-12-2009 kl. 15:14 skrev Peter P GMX <Prometheus001(a)gmx.net> i meddelelsen <4B1BBC52.3050106(a)gmx.net>: Concerning, > Which I'm kinda confused about, I don't have any 192.168 net here?? I think, this is a default entry in the acl.conf.xml. Please check the entries there. But normally this shouldn't stop freeswitch from working and handling requests. Can you set the console_log_level to "debug" in vars.xml and post you console output when the phone tries to register? You may also grep the network traffic on port 5060 (e.g. ngrep -d any port 5060 -W byline) on your machine, to see what's wrong.

Re: [Freeswitch-users] uuid_broadcast with pause and rewind for dictation service?

Someone else was asking about this too. I could probably write a dictaction mod in c like the one I made for asterisk starting at about $3k depending on the featureset required.

Re: [Freeswitch-users] Lua and database access to core_db
by Jon Bruel 06 Dec '09

Dear all Some feedback regarding using Lua to access core database: First of all, I did not succeed to get SQLite drivers in Lua or ODBC-drivers in Lua to work. The SQLite driver did compile OK, but there was an error when loading into Lua. The ODBC driver did also compile OK, did load into Lua, but could not connect. Accessing the SQLite from the Linux console using "isql -v <name of DSN>" worked OK. The problems may be related to the present Linux distribution, which is Ubuntu 9.1 server. Unfortunately the public searchable information about Lua ODBC driver problems is sparse. So I continued to try to get the FS to use MySQL as the core db. A number of problem occurred, which I did not find solution for in the FS documents. The problems and solutions are described below: 1) The core database is not automatically created by FS, therefore I created it manually. 2) During startup, the FS test for transaction support, and this test failed. To achieved transaction support with MySQL and MyODBC, three things had to be changed: a. A line was added in my.cnf to force innoDB as the default table: under the [mysqld] header, the following line was added: set-variable = default-table-type=InnoDB. b. The a line under the DNS was added to allow for multiple line statement support: option = 67108864. (ODBC version is 3.51). 3) After these changes the transaction worked, but all the tables in the core db were not created, therefore I copied the structure from the SQLite tables into tables with the same names in the MySQL database. This exercise also showed what the problem was: MySQL could not create tables with many VARCHAR type files with a size of 4096 (sound very big?). The size was reduced to 255, and most of the tables were created OK. One table still gave problems: the interface table. One of the fields is called key, which is a reserved word in MySQL, and by backticking the word key in the create statement, it worked. 4) Finally the FS started up using the MySQL, but errors splashed over the screen just after startup. There was a problem creating new records in the interface table, the problem was the key field. Changing the insert statement in switch.core.sqldb.c file by backticking the key field name and recompiling the FS solved that problem. I guess this will be fixed in later releases and I hope this will assist the brave programmers! I would like to argue for the development of SQLite connectivity in Lua. The ODBC core solution is not as clean as a direct database connection, and as long as this is limited to SQLite, a direct connection from "recommended script language" would be the cleanest solution. Further, it would be nice if everything works after having compiled the FS package.

caller_id_name + caller_id_number and Snom 360...
by Klaus Hochlehnert 06 Dec '09

06 Dec '09

Hi, currently I'm testing the newest FS trunk. Now I need a hint how to set up an "old" behavior of version 1.0.4. Here's the scenario: - Incoming call from caller_id_name: abc and caller_id_number: 123 - Now I set effective_caller_id_name: xyz and effective_caller_id_number: 456 - Leg B (Snom 360) is ringing and displays the new values (xyz + 456) - After the pickup the Leg B is switching back to the "old" values and displays abc + 123 But I would rather see the new values during the call (as it was in version 1.0.4). What do I need to change? Thanks, Klaus

A few questions about Polycom setup
by Yehavi Bourvine 06 Dec '09

06 Dec '09

Hello, I have a few questions about Ploycom's usage and provisioning for which I found no answers neither at the docs nor on the WEB: - I would like to enable SIP/TLS. for this I have to import the root certificate. How can I do it via the XML config files? the only method I found is via the phone's interface, but what do you do when you have tens and more of them? - Since the phone is limited to 3way conference I would like it to use a conference room on the server. I've defined: <conference voIpProt.SIP.conference.address="sip:Conf000000@*my-server*" /> - The result is that when A calls B (the polycom phone) which tries to conference with C is that B does a conference with C and the conference room and A is left on hold... Thanks! __Yehavi:

Hi Adam Excellent first steps! Thankyou for the hint. Now I hope somebody can tell me what I'm doing wrong next... I've gotten it to register to the testprovider here (musimi.dk), but I get an error when I create an account for testing with the X-Lite phone. It displays 403 forbidden in the display.
