Hi Michael, Thanks for replying back. I've pasted a sample application on pastebin, the URL is: http://pastebin.com/MYusWe3V What I'm trying to do (and have partially accomplished) is: -Answer the call - Play a message - wait for a command (dtmf or voice, this is out of the sample app for the sake of keeping it short & simple) - originate a new call, wait for it to be answered and depending on an event (dtmf)... - ...do the bridge or dial another extension. The extension number is external (managed by a Cisco CCM). If I try to do the bridge from the XML dialplan it works perfect. When I try to do it from an outbound socket java application, anything happens, and almost no information is logged on FS log that I can use to decide what might be happening. Thanks again for your help. I truly appreciate it.

I recommend you pastebin a simple java app that answers the call and attempts to bridge it and also pastebin the console log. The community will take a look and see if we can help you figure out what is happening. -MC On Wed, Jun 8, 2011 at 3:14 PM, Hector Geraldino <Hector.Geraldino@ip-soft.net<mailto:Hector.Geraldino@ip-soft.net>> wrote: Hi all, I've been playing with FS around weeks, with some level of success. Right now I'm stuck trying to dial an extension, or to bridge a call to an external extension. Briefly, the scenario is the following: - Cisco CCM forwarding SIP calls to FS - FS in outbound mode, forwarding calls to a Java application using freeswitch-esl jar The java application answers the call, says a dialogue using TTS and receives input using DTFM or speech commands; all this is working pretty well. Now I'm trying to put this call in hold, originate a call to another extension and, depending on the result (call answered, not answered, destination user presses an specific number generating an expected DTMF), I need to bridge both calls and finish the session. I try several ways to get this done with no luck yet: using api originate to make the call with different arguments ({ignore_early_media, etc). I even tried to skip this step and just do the bridge between the inbound call and the external extension, but this didn't work either. I can't see any errors thrown by FS, and the result of the command is +OK, but nothing happens, the external phone never rings. The FS log only says: [DEBUG] switch_core_session.c:954 Send signal sofia/external/5655@192.168.8.1<mailto:5655@192.168.8.1> [BREAK] <= this ext/IP address is from the inbound caller, not the one I'm trying to connect to. My first impression was that I might have something wrong with the originate/bridge parameters. I changed the dialplan XML file to just do the bridge, and it worked like a charm. <include> <extension name="test"> <condition field="destination_number" expression="6114|5121"> <!-- <action application="socket" data="localhost:8044 async full"/> --> <action application="bridge" data="sofia/external/5562@192.168.2.14<mailto:5562@192.168.2.14>" /> </condition> </extension> </include> I don't know what path to follow here. I was unable to find relevant examples on google that guides me to solve this little issue. Any advices?
