Dynamic specify the outbound GW within source code
by fieldpeak 27 Jun '13

27 Jun '13

Dear friends, i have FS for PSTN outbound call using below dial plan, <extension name="CallToPSTN" > <condition field="destination_number" expression="^(0\d+)$" > <action application="bridge" data="sofia/internal/$1(a)1.2.3.4" /> </condition> </extension> While, now i need dynamically specify the outbound GW’s IP address according to the return result of the external command before routing in the source code , e.g. if the external command return FS the IP address of OB GW 6.7.8.9, then <action application="bridge" data="sofia/internal/$1(a)6.7.8.9" /> however, i don't know which function i should call within the source code to realize it, could anybody help to advise, P.S. i know there is existing module “mod_xml_curl” can realize similar function, however, I could not use it for this case… thanks a lot! Regards, Charles

Hello list, I would like to have one simple ability to listen the phone number of caller when I check my voicemail. At present I listen date of message only. I have found the macro "voicemail_say_phone_number" in conf/lang/en/vm/sounds.xml. But... when FS uses it ? Can I get it without modifying of source code of voicemail module ? Please advise.Thanks.

Anyone able to get freeswitch to register a gateway over TLS or TCP? I can't get it to not send UDP packets for reg.
by Mitch Capper 14 Jun '13

14 Jun '13

I am trying to get freeswitch to register with another freeswitch server (on TLS port 5061) however default the config settings I believe should set it, it always trys to register over UDP (after registration or with registration set to false however it does send TCP then for outbound calls). If anyone has a gateway config that actually registers over TCP or TLS that would be great. The client gateway/profile config at: http://pastebin.freeswitch.org/15383is what i believe should work but isn't I have tried setting contact-params on the gateway to tport=tls tport=tcp tport=tcp;transport=tls and transport=tls without any luck. Anyway even TCP would be helpful as it would allow me to trace better how the sip registration decides to use TCP or UDP. I tried digging into libsofia but its a bit hard to trace and understand with its generic event structure and tagging (plus the documentation isn't the most rebust on registration options). Thanks ~Mitch

Newbie's installation: Can't start FS at boot
by Dyna Guy 23 May '13

23 May '13

I am a newbie to FS and I want learn it. So I setup a Centos 5.2 (fresh install) and followed the instruction on the wiki installed the new Freeswitch v1.0.3. After the installation I can start FS by issus command "/usr/local/freeswitch/bin/freeswitch". After that I copied freeswitch.init.centos5 to /etc/init.d/freeswitch and chmod it to 755. Reboot the server and FS is not running. If I try the start up script: [root@localhost build]# /etc/init.d/freeswitch start Starting freeswitch: [ OK ] [root@localhost build]# /etc/init.d/freeswitch status freeswitch dead but subsys locked Did I miss somthing here? Please help.

Check if UA is still there?
by Peter Steinbach 03 May '13

03 May '13

Hello, is there a way to check if a UA is still available? The reason is, that sometimes a channel hangs and is not being terminated because the UA was disconnected due to a network failure. As the media is outside Freeswitch (bypass media), it is difficult for us to determine, if the call is still active. Meanwhile the B leg to PSTN is also not hungup and produces costs. Is there a way Freeswitch can detect this? Or is there a way Freeswitch may send a SIP message to the UA by an external process and wait for an OK which can be captured e.g. by event socket interface? An help is welcome. -- With kind regards Peter Steinbach Telefaks Services GmbH mailto:lists (att) telefaks.de Internet: www.telefaks.de

Sofia fails to detect offline gateway
by Steven Ayre 03 Jan '13

03 Jan '13

Hi Guys, A couple of our gateways have been shut down for hardware upgrades. However, the FreeSWITCH servers didn't spot the gateways go offline so they're still trying to send calls to them. I see this in the logs: 2011-01-11 09:35:05.396610 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw4 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:05.396610 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw3 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:13.408674 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw4 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:13.408674 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw3 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:21.420884 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw4 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:21.420884 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw3 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:29.458114 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw4 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:29.458114 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw3 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:37.472424 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw4 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:37.472424 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw3 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:46.475934 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw4 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:46.475934 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw3 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:55.489967 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw4 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP 2011-01-11 09:35:55.489967 [WARNING] sofia.c:3981 Ping failed gw3 with code 503 - count 1/0/10, state UP ... you get the idea. I've done some testing and it happens both when FS is running and the gateway goes offline (code 408 then) and when FS starts up with the gateway already offline (code 503 as above). Both IP addresses are entirely offline. I had expected these would go to state DOWN but they haven't, I just get the above repeating. The gateway definitions look like this: <gateway name="gw3"> <param name="realm" value="a.b.c.d"/> <param name="username" value="nouser"/> <param name="password" value="nopass"/> <param name="register" value="false"/> <param name="caller-id-in-from" value="true"/> <param name="ping" value="5"/> <param name="ping-max" value="10"/> <param name="ping-min" value="1"/> <param name="retry-seconds" value="5"/> <param name="expire-seconds" value="60"/> </gateway> Is there a mistake in my configuration? -Steve

How to prevent RFC2833-relaying
by David Ponzone 22 Nov '12

22 Nov '12

Hello all, I have a FS box between customers and carriers, and I receive RFC-2833 from carriers, and FS relays them to customers. Classic. I am looking for a way to tell FS, for specific calls, not to relay the RFC-2833 events to customers. Is there a such thing in the code ?
