Hi,

I have the same problem. below is the script which i used.
if i  don't use session.answer then it give correct session time but if i use session.answer before new session originate it does not gives the correct time.

i have provided the logs also with and without session.answer.

my script is as following:

//========start =========

session.answer();
var DialNumber = 919971XXXX;

console_log("notice", "Your destination :"+DialNumber+"\n");

var dialstr = "sofia/external/"+DialNumber+"@192.168.1.10:5090";


                                        new_session = new Session();
                                        new_session.setCallerData("caller_id_name", "ABC");
                                        new_session.setCallerData("caller_id_number", "2121231234");
                                        new_session.originate(session, dialstr,60);
                                        bridge(session, new_session);


var Acallduration=session.getVariable("billsec");

var p1time=session.getVariable("progresssec");

var odur=session.getVariable("duration");

var Bcallduration=new_session.getVariable("billsec");
var p2time=new_session.getVariable("progresssec");
var ndur=new_session.getVariable("duration");

console_log("notice", "Your old session  bill duration:"+Acallduration+"\n");
console_log("notice", "Your old session progress time :"+p1time+"\n");
console_log("notice", "Your old session total time :"+odur+"\n");

console_log("notice", "Your new session bill duration :"+Bcallduration+"\n");
console_log("notice", "Your new session progress time  :"+p2time+"\n");
console_log("notice", "Your new session total time  :"+ndur+"\n");
new_session.hangup();


session.hangup();


//======end============


Case 1:  when session.answer was commented.run java script call was made to number 919971XXXX and connected for 4 seconds.
so this is showing correct time.


2008-08-20 16:00:48 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your old session  bill duration:4
2008-08-20 16:00:48 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your old session progress time :6
2008-08-20 16:00:48 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your old session total time :16
2008-08-20 16:00:48 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your new session bill duration :false
2008-08-20 16:00:48 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your new session progress time  :false
2008-08-20 16:00:48 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your new session total time  :false



Case 2:  When session.answer was used.call was connected to number 919971XXXX for 8 seconds only but its showing 19 seconds. which is not correct.

2008-08-20 16:11:47 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your old session  bill duration:19
2008-08-20 16:11:47 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your old session progress time :0
2008-08-20 16:11:47 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your old session total time :19
2008-08-20 16:11:47 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your new session bill duration :false
2008-08-20 16:11:47 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your new session progress time  :false
2008-08-20 16:11:47 [NOTICE] test.js:1 console_log() Your new session total time  :false
