As Ken's original message said, try "fsctl sps 40" or the like. He said that otherwise only a restart, not reload xml would work. -Avi (This message was painstakingly thumbed out on my mobile, so apologies for brevity and errors.)

Hi, I have been getting this error in freeswitch for group calls. Can anyone please let me know what is the issue?

Re: [Freeswitch-users] Terminating calls prior to answer using api

Thanks for your help. I might be doing something wrong but I had tried using a cause, the command I ran was... bgapi uuid_kill 0292147c-7469-11e2-817e-bd1d1e5a02e8 normal_clearing This seemed to work as the hangup event showed "NORMAL_CLEARING" as the hangup cause but the sip client still reported the error.

Running FS with "daemon" group.
by Mimiko Mimiko 11 Feb '13

11 Feb '13

Hello. On this page: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Freeswitch_init I see that FS is started under "daemon" group. Is it safe to start it that way, and is it safe if other services will be started under the same group? About "daemon" group debian says that is better that each service is started in its own uid/guid. But that way services cannot share same directory for storing and reading common files. Especially that FS creates files with 750 permission.

VoIP gateway with PRI
by Mimiko 11 Feb '13

11 Feb '13

Hello. I want to propose for purchasing a VoIP gateway to connect some PRI lines with FS. Basic operation has to be routing like this: One line PRI will be connected to phone provider. Some calls to certain numbers thru this connection must be routed to FS via IP. Other destination numbers must be routed to second PRI connection for legacy PBX for analog phones. So the VoIP gateway must have two PRI (T1/E1) connections and two LAN connection for failover. After a while this VoIP gateway will be as a tehnology converter from IP to PRI. So LAN connectors will be used for connection to FS in a failover manner. And two PRI connectors will be used to connect to legacy PBX which have two PRI inputs to handle 60 concurrent connection. I've spotted three models: 1) Patton SN4951/4E60V2GS/EUI 4T1/E1/PRI 60 VoIP Channels G.SHDSL for $5,000 2) Audiocodes Mediant 1000 M1K-D2 2T1/E1 for $3,800 3) Sangoma Vega 400 2 T1/E1 Digital Gateway for $4,437 Which of this is a better working solution with failover and extended call routing plans? Thansk. -- Mimiko desu.

How to handle refer calls when ATA has call foward turned on
by Benoit Raymond 11 Feb '13

11 Feb '13

Hi gang, I want to keep the *72 feature on my Cisco SPA122 ATAs so I don't have to deal keeping the call forward numbers in FS. But in the standard dialplan, I hit the deflect application and since the call hasn't been answered yet, I assume I need to use the redirect or even the transfer application. Despite my attempts, I am struggling at finding the right way to deal with this refer call. Anybody has a dialplan recipe to handle the following scenarios? External Gatewasy -> FS (bridge app) -> ATA -> REFER -> FS (???) -> External Gateway Internal device -> FS (bridge app) -> ATA -> REFER -> FS(???) -> External Gateway My most wanted scenario is an inbound call coming from the External Gateway. Once FS gets the REFER from the ATA, I need to connect the a-leg to the proper destination but instead, call is dropped. I am a bit at lost here so any hint is appreciated. Benoit

Reg. Freeswitch Performace on Freescale Board
by Varghese 11 Feb '13

11 Feb '13

Hi all, We are facing following observations/issues with freeswitch on freescale processor boards. We ported freeswitch with freescale provided tool chain. _*Freeswitch Configuration: version 1.2.6 (git version)*_ 1. Only enabled mod_sofia, mod_dialplan, mod_command,mod_dptool and mod_console. 2. set the ulimit options and followed the steps in the following link http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Performance_testing_and_configurations 3. SIP test tool run the load test for 500 users in freeswitch and configured the dial plan to just bridge the channels 4. Freeswitch media processing is in default mode: i.e media will go through freeswitch _*Freescale Board Configuration:*_ CPU : 1GHZ PowerQUICC III, 32 bit RAM: 1 GB Linux- 2.6.32 Load test is conducted for SIP to SIP calls with RTP. _*Observations:*_ Linux TOP command shows increasing CPU usage per call and increases to 100% with only 90 calls. After that system response is very slow We could also found delay in media. _Surprisingly, with Asterisk 1.8 the same system configuration works 250 calls without any problems. _ _*Questions: *_1. Any one ported Freeswitch on Freescale or any embedded processors? Any performance figures or references will be appreciated 2. How many simultaneous calls can be possible with 1GHz PowerQUICC III processor ? 3. Any more settings are required in freeswitch or linux for scalability? Thanks And Regards Varghese Paul

Trouble autostarting freeswitch on boot
by Michael Whapples 10 Feb '13

10 Feb '13

Hello, I am trying to work out how to get freeswitch to be automatically be started when I boot the system. First of all I tried using ArchLinux to run freeswitch as that is the distribution of Linux I am most familiar with. I compiled freeswitch using the AUR package (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/freeswitch-git/) If I just run freeswitch from the command line it runs fine. As ArchLinux uses systemd for start up, I tried the systemd service file linked to in the AUR package and also tried modifying the one included from the debian directory (modifying paths as appropriate). Neither worked, the AUR package I think gave exit codes of 214 and the freeswitch debian one I cannot remember (although its probably the same as I am getting with debian). I decided as the Debian one was written for Debian, and may be there might be something Debian specific in that service file I would try on a Debian system. Still no luck, the service just fails to start, although running freeswitch from the command line works fine. On Debian I first got an error from the mkdir command (looked like it was to do with the directory not existing, probably caused by the WorkingDirectory line referring to the directory the mkdir command creates) so I decided to create /run/freeswitch manually and then try again to start the freeswitch service, but it still fails, this time at the launching of freeswitch which gets the SEGV signal. Also on debian I tried the sysvinit script from the debian folder of the freeswitch distribution, and while I get a message appearing saying backgrounding the process, freeswitch fails to continue to run. Ideally I want it so that I can control the freeswitch process, so using systemd seems a reasonable choice, but I will consider other options which meet that ability to control/monitor the process. A search on the internet does not seem to be yielding any answers to this problem. How can I get this running? I might consider another distribution, but it must be one which will run on the raspberrypi as that will be where it will be run in the end. I did try the ArchLinux stuff on both an X86_64 system as well as the raspberrypi, Debian, I mainly tried on the RaspberryPi using the raspbian distribution. Any help would be welcome as I have reached the point that I cannot think of anything else to try other than another system than FreeSwitch. Michael Whapples
