Tracking codec g729 by event
by Antonio 15 Feb '12

15 Feb '12

Hi, I'm trying to keep tracking on the use of codec g729 licenses on my server. I've a little ESL program that check all the events for a new call and if the call uses g729 i execute the api "g729_used" to fetch the value. This doesn't work, i try it on event CODEC, and EXECUTE. Is there any event that i can use that is trigger by the encoder/decoder in mod_com_g729 when it actives a license? Thanks, _________________________ António Silva

Queue Agent Status BLF
by Andrew Cassidy 15 Feb '12

15 Feb '12

Just something i've been wondering, I'd like to use a quickdial/blf key to log in and out of a queue. Simple enough. But I'd also like to display the agent's status in that queue using the BLF. Is that something that's going to be possible? I've been looking at trying to implement it using the event socket to send the custom presence updates. Thanks, -- Andrew Cassidy BSc (Hons) MBCS Managing Director; Cassidy Web Services Ltd T: 03300 100 960 F: 03300 100 961 E: andrew(a)cassidywebservices.co.uk W: www.cassidywebservices.co.uk

FreeSwitch does not start in the background
by Eugene Shcherbatyuk 15 Feb '12

15 Feb '12

Hello, The purpose was to evaluate FreeSwitch and decide whether to replace my Asterisks with it or not. I installed FS1.0.6 from git on Ubuntu Server 10.04.3 LTS. Everything went smoothly until FS did not start with the system today. There are no errors in logs. FS starts in console fine. FS does not start in background mode nor from console (with -nc option) nor from init script. Even worse: FS can unexpectedly start (rarely) or do not start (often) with "backgrounding" message. Have a look at the console output below, please. > root@fs:/usr/local/freeswitch/bin# /etc/init.d/freeswitch start > # ******* FS started without a message ********* > root@fs:/usr/local/freeswitch/bin# netstat -ant > Active Internet connections (servers and established) > Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State > tcp 0 0 172.18.0.130:5060 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN > tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:8021 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN > tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:22 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN > tcp 0 0 172.18.0.130:5080 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN > tcp6 0 0 ::1:5060 :::* LISTEN > tcp6 0 0 :::22 :::* LISTEN > root@fs:/usr/local/freeswitch/bin# /etc/init.d/freeswitch stop > Killing: 850 > root@fs:/usr/local/freeswitch/bin# /etc/init.d/freeswitch start > root@fs:/usr/local/freeswitch/bin# 923 Backgrounding. > # ****** Note message above ********* > root@fs:/usr/local/freeswitch/bin# netstat -ant > Active Internet connections (servers and established) > Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State > tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:22 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN > tcp6 0 0 :::22 :::* LISTEN Your opinions, please?
