mercutioviz in #freeswitch already solved it for me, a big thanks for you =D The trick was to use ^9(\d{10})$. I need to get off and learn a bit of regexp ;-) Here is the log in case if someone wants to read it, maybe it will help some: 19:39 < mercutioviz> diegoviola: i've had a fair amount of success with regexps in the dialplan 19:40 < mercutioviz> what are you hoping to accomplish? 19:40 < mercutioviz> gimme the plain english and i'll help u with a regexp 19:41 < diegoviola> mercutioviz: well i had a 9(\d+)$ for dialing out through my gateway and at the same time i have the default extensions for echo (9996) etc... and my dial out regexp extension also matches 9996 19:41 < mercutioviz> yep, classic problem 19:42 < mercutioviz> how many digits will the caller dial after dialing 9? like 9 12345678 19:42 < diegoviola> normally is 9-1-number 19:42 < mercutioviz> no prob 19:42 < diegoviola> that's what i was using 19:43 < diegoviola> wait 19:43 < diegoviola> ^(\d+)$ works fine for me 19:43 < diegoviola> no need for the 9 first i think 19:43 < mercutioviz> try this: ^9(\d{10,})$ 19:43 < mercutioviz> it depends on how fancy you want to get 19:44 < mercutioviz> example: 9+phone number goes out one provider, 8+phone number goes out another provider 19:44 < mercutioviz> etc. 19:44 < mercutioviz> the above regexp says "Match if I see 9 plus at least ten consecutive digits" 19:44 < diegoviola> with ^(\d+)$ i can't dial 3030, etc 19:44 < mercutioviz> that way 9996 won't match 19:45 < mercutioviz> the problem with ^(\d+)$ is that it will match *any* consecutive string of digits 19:45 < diegoviola> interesting Thanks, FS rocks =D Diego Jul 30, 2008 at 5:29 PM, Diego Viola <diego.viola@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi everyone,

I have this in my default dialplan for dialing out:

<extension name="outbound"> <condition field="destination_number" expression="^9(\d+)$"> <action application="bridge" data="sofia/gateway/teliax/$1"/> </condition> </extension>

It works fairly well... but when I try to dial other extensions that start with "9", like 9996 (echo extension) I get this: http://pastebin.freeswitch.org/5026 and in my softphone I get "service or option unavailable".

If I remove the "outbound" extension works.

I know it might be something simple... but I'm not very familiar with regular expressions yet, so if you can help me with this I will be really thankful.

Thanks everyone... FreeSWITCH rocks =D
