Paging
by Alex Lake 18 Mar '13

18 Mar '13

I'm a little confused by Freeswitch's support for the paging feature of some phones... The wiki has a page about "Intercom" that suggests that you just prefix the extension with an "8". But the way our dialplan works is that a 3 digit extension number (eg. 302) is picked up and then a tenant-specific bridge command is performed (eg. to ${sofia_contact(0095302)}) so how could that be extended to paging?

Console for backgrounded FS process
by Cal Leeming [Simplicity Media Ltd] 18 Mar '13

18 Mar '13

Hello all, Does anyone know of a way to get console access to backgrounded FreeSWITCH? Specifically, the nice pretty/colorful one with auto-complete. The existing alternatives I've found so far are; * mod event socket on telnet port (not very pretty, no auto complete) * run FS in a screen session (not easily automated into start-stop-daemon, if at all) Any thoughts?

Crash whilst making multiple outbound call attempts
by Andy Ayers 18 Mar '13

18 Mar '13

Hi, I'm running Freeswitch 1.6 and everything has been running incredibly smoothly for many months until I recently extended the functionality of my application to make outbound calls on a schedule handled by PHP. It all works fine when the volumes are low (10 calls every 5 minutes is stable). When I try and ramp up the volumes to do more calls Freeswitch intermittently crashes with no indication in the log files as to why. The log comes to an abrupt halt and the last action in the logs is something different and seemingly harmless every time. Here's a little more info about the setup: I use a cron job on my Linux Debian box to run a php script via apache. This script looks up queued calls in a database and then uses rpc to instruct freeswitch to make the call by executing a javascript script. The calls are originated in Javascript using this function. function MakeOutgoingCall(from, fromName, to) { logMessage("Initiating outgoing call: {originate_timeout=40,effective_caller_id_number=" + from + ",origination_caller_id_number=" + from + ",origination_caller_id_name=" + fromName + ",ignore_early_media=true}sofia/outbound/" + to + "@sip.node4.co.uk"); var newSession = new Session("{originate_timeout=40,effective_caller_id_number=" + from + ",origination_caller_id_number=" + from + ",origination_caller_id_name=" + fromName + ",ignore_early_media=true}sofia/outbound/" + to + "@sip.node4.co.uk"); return newSession; } There's a fair bit goes on during these calls but nothing fundamentally different to the many inbound calls I've been hadling very successfully so far. Can anyone suggest what the likley causes of such a crash might be or where I might look to get more information from the systrem that would give me a clue. Apologies I'm no Linux expert. Initially I thought it might be the voicemail detection but turning this off has made no difference. Does this simply point to a hardware fault on my Linux box? Any help greatly appreciated. Many thanks Andy

Interrupting the playback in the middle and start recording(Not interrupting by using playback terminators)
by Nikhitha 18 Mar '13

18 Mar '13

I want to do the following... 1. Play a long music file from a dialplan. 2. While the music is playing, If the user is not interested in listening to that wav file can start recording For example if it is playing "Do you want to continue the service then say yes or else say no,Please give some input" ,then user is not new to the service so without completion of playing it,can the user start recording like saying "yes/no"? Can we record it while the wav file is being played,is there any chance of interrupting it and proceed to recording the file(Not interrupting the playback /recording using anything like playback terminators).. How do i do this.?? Thanks in advance.. -- View this message in context: http://freeswitch-users.2379917.n2.nabble.com/Interrupting-the-playback-in-… Sent from the freeswitch-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hi Vitalie, Thanks..It worked. I want to know that, is python supported as an IVR scripting lanuguage with the stable release (current) of freeswitch. I can see on the mod_python wiki page that the documentation needs to be re-done as there are a lot of changes. Where can I find the latest documentation about mod_python? Please guide.
