Using Meta-app with curl together
by Doug Blacksone 13 Nov '08

13 Nov '08

Hi, My freeswitch is configured with using curl to generate all the dialplan. Everything seems to be ok except with meta-app. I have setup bind_meta_app as follows: <action application="bind_meta_app" data="1 a s execute_extension::record XML features"/> When *1 is pressed, freeswitch will fetch another dialplan from curl, but the problem is that in the xml that is pressed to curl, there is no variable that can indicates that this is a bind_meta_app, the key being pressed, nor the context name ( which is called features in this case). Therefore, I find it difficult to handle the curl request and properly response to it. I suspect that I may have overlook a parameter or something like that. Any clue or help will be greatly helpful. Regards, Doug

Hi, >Well this backtrace doesn't help at all. See the line starting with >#0... at that point you need to type "bt" and email that to the list.. >and just the part after you type "bt" Sorry about the spam. This is my first time using gdb ( or any similar tool ). I've generated another core dump with the same script and done as you suggested in gdb. Below is the semi abbreviated readout, hopefully it is more useful than my previous submission. *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0xb5e98009 *** Aborted (core dumped) $ gdb /usr/local/freeswitch/bin/freeswitch core.12966 GNU gdb 6.4.90-debian1-C0-81:/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/foo# gdb /usr/local/freeswitch/bin/freeswitch core.12966 Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

javascript access to conf/directory/default
by John Wehle 13 Nov '08

13 Nov '08

I've written a javascript program which allows a caller to lookup an extension by entering the person's name using DTMF. Currently the list of name people / extensions is hardcoded. How do I iterate through conf/directory/default from javascript in order to dynamically build a table containing everyone's effective_caller_id_name and effective_caller_id_number instead of hardcoding it? Does FreeSWITCH load this into a registry of some type at startup and if so how do I access the registry from javascript? Likewise is there an easy way from javascript to determine the voicemail path (currently it is also hardcoded)? I use it in order to play the recorded_name (if present) for an extension when doing the lookup. -- John ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Feith Systems | Voice: 1-215-646-8000 | Email: john(a)feith.com | | John Wehle | Fax: 1-215-540-5495 | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Status of Active calls
by shehzad p 13 Nov '08

13 Nov '08

How can we get status of active calls, while it is in RINGING or ANSWERED I am trying 'show calls' which list calls only when it is answered, but i also need to list calls when it is in ringing state. while 'show channels' gives me two channels per call, it has state field too, but value of 'state' is not likely that i can decide ringing or answered. Thanks all MSP -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Status-of-Active-calls-tp20475950p20475950.html Sent from the Freeswitch-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Is this a direct issue with sqlalchemy/the python mysql backend? It would seem that the hangup hook has some issue with one of these, as sqlalchemy works fine without the hangup hook, and the hangup hook seems generally ok without sqlalchemy, but put the two together and you've got problems. i wonder if switching up to python2.5 would be a good idea?

Freeswitch wedges in voicemail?
by Marc Lewis 13 Nov '08

13 Nov '08

I have a strange problem that I've been dealing with for the last week or two. Once or twice a day, Freeswitch will "wedge", in what appears to be voicemail. The switch is sort of still responding, meaning I can issue various commands at the console, but no new sofia channels will be handled, registrations start failing on the internal profile and no new calls can come in from the external profile. When it happens, existing channels stay up, but once they are completed, no new channels can be created. There is always one channel that remains that looks something like (DID obfuscated): api show channels Content-Type: api/response Content-Length: 394 uuid,created,created_epoch,name,state,cid_name,cid_num,ip_addr,dest,application,application_data,dialplan,context,read_codec,read_rate,write_codec,write_rate ea758bcf-25f5-4cde-9f6c-5e3f1226130f,2008-10-27 10:02:27,1225126947,sofia/external/253941xxxx@204.11.200.165,CS_EXECUTE,253941xxxx,253941xxxx,199.245.214.150,328,voicemail,default pgm.cisvp.com 246,XML,pgm,PCMU,8000,PCMU,8000 1 total. I've been updating every weekend with the latest code, this is currently trunk rev 10146. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Its driving me crazy. - Marc -- Marc Lewis Avvatel Corporation

Re: [Freeswitch-users] Recomended VOIP Providers?
by Jim Flowers 12 Nov '08

12 Nov '08

I wound up using VoicePulse outbound and CallWithUs inbound for testing. VoicePulse offers a free 4 channel test account with $2.00 of outbound minutes, however, until a call is actually completed there is no charge so you can test out your connection, multiple channels, moh and ivr for free. CallWithUs charges $11 setup plus $11/mo for a DID that includes 2000/3000 inbound minutes in my area. That was the least cost I could find for someone who would furnish a DID in my area. -- Jim Flowers <jflowers(a)ezo.net>

And sorry you got all "hung up" on the hangup hooks. mod_python has a narrow testing record. Certain things have been tested heavily and are known to work reliably, but once you veer off the path, you are vulnerable to potential bugs like the one you saw. > > Maybe it's worth adding something to the freeswitch mod_python wiki > page about this? Yeah definitely. I updated the wiki with warnings to hopefully save the next guy the headache. That hangup hook function should probably be removed until its known to work reliably. > I still don't know exactly why this causes a core > dump, and it seems to work ok, as long as there is nothing else > interacting with it (e.g. sqlalchemy), If you can get a good core dump it might reveal something. Maybe a clean build or something .. I thought it was built with debugging symbols by default. Also you should call gdb freeswitch core.1234 (2nd arg should be freeswitch binary) if you are not already.

Javascript, conference, play and say
by Birgit Arkesteijn 12 Nov '08

12 Nov '08

Hi all, I'm implementing the following in javascript: 1. One person, the consumer, is in a conference. 2. I ring the next person, the merchant (mSession). 3. Before dropping the merchant into the conference I want to: 3a. Play a jingle (mSession.streamFile) and say (mSession.speak) something to the merchant 3b. Play a jingle to the consumer: apiExecute("conference", saymember) 4. Drop the merchant in the conference. The calls to mSession return after play and say are finished, whereas apiExecute returns immediately. Ideally I like 3a. and 3b. to be finished at the same time, i.e. do them in parallel instead of sequential. Can anyone see an alternative way to achieve this? I cannot use apiExecute on the merchant: I don't see which command I could use. I cannot use session on the consumer, I tried.

Optimal server hardware and software setup (freeswitch, php & mysql)?
by Dennis 12 Nov '08

12 Nov '08

hi, i am about to set up servers for freeswitch with php and mysql. i would like to ask, what the optimal setup would be. planned software: - freeswitch - php-script as socket server (socket outbound) - mysql (for call-logfiles and dialplan-selection) - ubuntu server 64bit planned hardware: => 2 servers for web, the php socket server script and mysql - each with 2 xenon quad cores, 16 gb ram => 3 servers for freeswitch - each with 1 xenon quad core, 4 or 8 gb ram one of the web-server could smoke off and the other server jumps in. two freeswitch server could smoke off and the last can handle all calls. or one of the freeswitch server could be taken out of the row to test new versions. for me it is important, that everything is very redundant, because i want to avoid trouble with clients. the big questions are: 1.) is this hardware setup ok? 2.) where are the weak spots, when using an app like freeswitch (or something similar)? we would prefer, if each of the three freeswitch servers could stand to have its own php socket server to be run and to have a copy of the mysql database to READ the needed information. this is because the web server or other servers could fail, while each freeswitch server can go on handling call independantly. but, would this setup cause any problems in case of stability or speech quality? i have no idea, what task i should keep away from the application servers. thanks, dennis
