[App_rpt-users] Allstar node Scheduler Help

[Steve Thompson]

Thanks for the suggestion. I’m running a hamvoip instance on RPi 3. I’ve captured the logs. Here’s what is happening:

After 3 min of hang time, I get “TO” in CW (presumably that is “time out”). Then a new line is generated to the log which says:

<DAHDI ...> playing /tmp/current-time

Then I get two separate lines that say:
Hungup ‘DAHDI pseudo...’ 

There IS a file in /tmp named “current-time.gsm”. I don’t know what the .gsm extension means though. The file is not a text file.

What is “DAHDI”?
Any thoughts on how this is scheduled?
And why it’s erroring out?

Thanks

In the [schedule...] section, the only two lines (which reference a macro to be run on the hour) are both commented out with semi-colons. I did not comment them out. I would think since they are commented out, they’d not be running .. unless there’s something somewhere else triggering this behavior.
