A FreeSWITCH Calling Card Application written in Ruby
by Diego Viola 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

Hello, I'm currently working on a calling card application written in Ruby, just a hobby, I currently have it on a usable state and I thought I would post it here in case if there is someone interested. It uses mod_nibblebill as the billing/rate engine and FSR (FreeSWITCHeR) as the event socket library. Here is the url of the project: http://github.com/diego/freeswitch-card/tree/master You can find a clone of the project on my FreeSWITCH contrib directory too. http://fisheye.freeswitch.org/browse/FreeSWITCH/contrib/diegoviola/ Regards, Diego

Limit_Hash
by Matt Riddell 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

Hi, Didn't see this one come through before when I posted it, so sending it again - apologies if it did come through. I've moved this discussion to users as it seems my query is moving in that direction :) So, upon looking at limit_hash, it appears to do what I need to do. My question then becomes, how do I set a hash for an originated call? It seems that limit_hash is an application rather than a channel variable, and so far I've been doing most things without touching the dialplan. So, say I want to originate 9 calls, 3 from 3 customers. I would like to mark the calls with my_customer_group_1 through 3, and then use the limit_hash_usage command to verify the count of channels in each group. I therefore have a few questions: 1. Can I mark a call in the originate statement? 2. How do I use the limit_hash_usage command? The wiki states: You can verify the usage of any resource with the limit_hash_usage api call. limit_hash_usage <realm> <id> Is realm the same as a SIP realm? Is id the hash that I have used to mark the call with? Just making sure :) -- Cheers, Matt Riddell Director _______________________________________________ http://www.venturevoip.com/news.php (Daily Asterisk News) http://www.venturevoip.com/st.php (SmoothTorque Predictive Dialer) http://www.venturevoip.com/c3.php (ConduIT3 PABX Systems)

shared mailbox, mwi
by Frank Carmickle 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

Hello I am trying to set up a shared mailbox per group of extensions where the mailboxes are [2-9][2-9][0,2,4,6,8]0 and the phones are [2-9][2-9]\d[1-9]. I mostly have it working except I can't seem to figure out how to get mwi for the phones in the group. I've tried a number of things. I haven't figured out how you can have a mailbox that doesn't have a user associated with it. When I use <variable name="sip-force-user" value="9200"/> I get the mwi but I am not able to call that user any more. I have <variable name="mailbox" value="9200"/> set for each user. What are my options for making this scenario work? Thank you --Frank

DTMF CSeq: 505 INFO vs RTP DTMF
by Alberto Escudero 15 Sep '09

15 Sep '09

Hi, I am using the function session.collectInput and session.streamFile to collect a number of DTMF digits. If the DTMF digits are sent in the RTP, i can collect several digits until timeout. No problem there! If the DTMFs are received as a sequence of SIP INFO packages, collectInput only receives the first one. Any ideas? -- Stopping junk mailers is good for the environment

502 Bad Gateway: Destination out of order error
by email lists 15 Sep '09

15 Sep '09

Hello All, Wondering if anyone has experienced this issue before. I've attached a snip of the log file where the error occurs and could use some leads on this. What's interesting is that the call appears to complete as normal, and a radius stop message even gets generated, though the duration is ~1 second. <snip> h323-disconnect-time = "h323-disconnect-time=14:35:01.000 UTC Tue Sep 15 2009" h323-connect-time = "h323-connect-time=14:34:59.000 UTC Tue Sep 15 2009" </snip> While there are a lot of pieces involved, the call scenario is pretty basic (no transfers, no holds, etc.), just a few redirects that Freeswitch appears to be able to handle without issue. Attached is a dumb'd down call ladder. I tried different rates at which I generate the calls, but it didn't seem to correlate to the amount of errors I am seeing. Sending a total of 100 calls, with a call duration of 10 seconds: @10 calls per second = 14 "502" errors. @5 calls per second = 4 "502" errors. @4 calls per second = NO ERRORS (1st run) @4 calls per second = 39 "502" errors. Please let me know if any additional information is needed. Thanks in advance for all help. Vladimir

sending custom events from event_socket, channel_variable_changed event?
by Benedikt Fraunhofer 15 Sep '09

15 Sep '09

Hello *, while trying to figure out how to send custom events from mod_socket with "sendmsg" (like a telnet connection or something) i only found how to do that from within javascript (with e.fire() and stuff). So... first of all, how's the correct syntax to do that from the event_socket? the wiki states --- sendmsg <uuid> Send a message to the call of given uuid (call-command execute or hangup), see examples below. --- Is there a secret syntax i missed how to send "CUSTOM" events? I tried to work-around that by setting a channel-variable and then calling the info-app. That way, a channel_execute event is fired and shows up in my event_socket-app. If there's a prettier way... please ignore the following up to the <snipp> mark :) so it looked to me that i can only send "command" messages and looking at the sources i found that mod_socket will hard-wire the event-name to "SWITCH_EVENT_COMMAND" (in read_packet() in ./mod/event_handlers/mod_event_socket/mod_event_socket.c). If i understand correctly how e.g.. the mod_spidermonkey-bindings enqueue events, the event-name is taken from the user and can therefor be "CUSTOM" (looks like it's being looked up in the switch_event_types_t-enum). --- if (switch_name_event(ename, &etype) != SWITCH_STATUS_SUCCESS) { switch_log_printf(SWITCH_CHANNEL_LOG, SWITCH_LOG_WARNING, "Unknown event %s\n", ename); *rval = BOOLEAN_TO_JSVAL(JS_FALSE); return JS_TRUE; } if (etype == SWITCH_EVENT_CUSTOM) { [...] if (switch_event_create_subclass(&event, etype, subclass_name) != SWITCH_STATUS_SUCCESS) { --- If it's currently not possible, do you think this could be useful, too? I thought a bit about the syntax and came up with this idea to not break compatibility, but feel free to change that, you know it better :) if you want to send an event that's not COMMAND, use "event-name: CUSTOM" as the first line after the "sendmsg [uuid]" and change the event-name (if that's possible) of the event already created by read_packet() or reconstruct the event or ... <snipp> Just another idea..... that could become handy is if there would be an event "CHANNEL_VAR_CHANGED", fired/enqueued by setvar(), setvar_multi() and friends. But as i write this i admit that one will be overwhelmed by the setvar massacre for example bridge() would do to set "disposition"-variables... Just a thought. Cheers Beni.
