refer doesn't always creates a new channel
by Michel Brabants 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Hello, I've noticed that in 1/2-cases refer doesn't create a new channel. It just doesn't do anything ... I also noticed that there were dead channels listed in "show channels" while no calls were present anymore. This is in freeswitch version 1.2.5.3. If it never worked, I would "understand" it, but this seems to be a bug or misconfiguration ..., but if it really was misconfigured I suppose that it shouldn't work at all ... I can see the bridge-command being listed as to be executed after the refer-message, but it doesn't create a new channel (all the rest, sets, exports, is executed). There's just nothing related to the new channel. The only thing I can see if the old channel/leg being destroyed by the refer-message. In the end I can see I'm trying to update to 1.2.7, but I don't really like to do this as I performed all my earlier tests on 1.2.5.3. Anyway, if somebody could tell me whether I should really pay attention to some things related to refer, it may help. Thanks, Michel

Integrate with a media server
by Jimmy Chang 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Hi, We plan to bridge calls to a application (media) server that acts as a IVVR server. After that, the ap server transfers back the call to a queue (callcenter). The question is what's the role of the ap server in the freeSWITCH? We try to register it as a UA, seems not work. Any advice? Regards, Jimmy

How to generate message waiting dialtone with pots
by Trever L. Adams 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Hello everyone, With some recent versions of FreeSWITCH I have been successful in getting some of my configurations to work finally. However, I still have a few remaining questions. The one I am trying to figure out now is this: With all of the POTS providers I have had, if there is a message waiting on their system, you get a waivering dialtone and a flashing light (if the phone supports it). I do not believe my board supports creating the flashing light signal to the phone. Can FreeSWITCH generate the waivering tone? How would I go about configuring it? I imagine there would be a check on voicemail to see if there are NEW messages and then setting some things in the tone file. I haven't a clue what any of those things are and would greatly appreciate help. Thank you, Trever -- "All this technology has somehow made you a stranger in your own land." -- Robert M. Pirsig

I am trying to add a record_session to record all my incoming calls. But it just doesnt work. There is nothing in the debug logs at all too. How do I diagnose what is wrong? Does something have to be compiled in for this to work?

FreeSWITCH Weekly News and Notes
by Michael Collins 25 Mar '13

25 Mar '13

Greetings! We are back after a brief hiatus. Our friend and colleague Brian West took some much-deserved time off last week so the rest of us were a bit busier than usual. Brian does an amazing amount of work on FreeSWITCH, CudaTel, and ClueCon, so we're definitely glad he's back to work! On last week's conference call<http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/FS_weekly_2013_03_20>we talked about Debian packaging with a little VoIP security and ZRTP thrown in for good measure. Interestingly, a number of people stayed on the call until 6pm EST! You are welcome to stay in the public conference room for as long as you like. This week<http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/FS_weekly_2013_03_27>we have Mark Crane scheduled to give us an update on FusionPBX. It's been about 12 months since we last heard from him. We are looking forward to seeing the improvements that have been added in the past year. We are also gearing up for ClueCon 2013 <http://www.cluecon.com> so save the date: August 6-8, 2013. If you have any questions about being a speaker, sponsor, or attendee then by all means contact us at this email address. Remember that WebRTC is a big topic in the news right now and we are looking for folks to talk about WebRTC in their open source telephony projects and solutions. Have a great week and we'll talk to you again in April! -- Michael S Collins ClueCon Team http://www.cluecon.com 877-7-4ACLUE

show channels/calls shows unexisting(destroyed) sip channels
by Michel Brabants 25 Mar '13

25 Mar '13

Hello, I was wondering where "show channels" gets its info from. I can see channels that don't exist anymore (freeswitch v1.2.7). All these channels got reinvites (which were processed ok) en they also seem to have entered the hangup-state (in the logfile, not in the channel-overview). So, I was wondering if show channels has a different view on the exisiting channels in comparison to the internal freeswitch memory. Thank you and kind regards, Michel

dynamic gateway declaration in freeswitch. Is it possible?
by rdmitry 25 Mar '13

25 Mar '13

Hi guys, I've just faced with a problem of defining a dynamic gateway the same way as in asterisk sip.conf with "host=dynamic" configuration parameter. So the question is how to define a gateway to a host behind a nat where host ip and port become available only after registration of this host on freeswitch. Any idea would be very much appreciated, Dmitry -- View this message in context: http://freeswitch-users.2379917.n2.nabble.com/dynamic-gateway-declaration-i… Sent from the freeswitch-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
