Asterisk still crashing.

Asterisk is still crashing soon after it starts. We're getting this now as the last message. [Oct 25 01:30:53] ERROR[7239]: app_rpt.c:19126 rpt_master: Continual RPT thread restarts, killing Asterisk Any idea's? the box has been offline now for several weeks. I am getting pressure from the radio group to dump All_Star and move to a Windoze box with Echolink. :( So what's involved in disabling the APP_RPT radio stuff so our normal Asterisk conferences etc can still be loaded up? ~Ken - vk4akp .-.-. == Set device 1-1 to usb1 == Parsing '/etc/asterisk/usbradio_tune_usb.conf': Found [Oct 25 01:30:45] WARNING[7279]: chan_usbradio.c:1449 hidthread: Loaded parameters from usbradio_tune_usb.conf for device usb . == Parsing '/etc/asterisk/usbradio_tune_usb1.conf': Found [Oct 25 01:30:45] WARNING[7281]: chan_usbradio.c:1449 hidthread: Loaded parameters from usbradio_tune_usb1.conf for device usb1 .

EchoLink Callsign instead of node number.
by Bob Roszkowski 24 Oct '11

24 Oct '11

Is there a way to change Allstar to report an EchoLinks Callsign and not their node number when they connect? I have not been able to find any documentation how to change this. -- boB - W5EVH

Re: [App_rpt-users] Variable Repeat Audio Delay
by Tim Sawyer 24 Oct '11

I can't see why hangtime would affect it any. But yep, it let's us know it's working. The delay itself is only slightly bothersome but fact that it varies from near zero at times to a second or more at other times is very weird. -- Tim :wq On Oct 24, 2011, at 8:06 AM, Mars - N0PCO wrote: > On 10/24/2011 09:53 AM, Tim Sawyer wrote: >> Just to be sure we are talking about the same thing.... it's repeat audio delay I'm talking about, not the delay between nodes, correct?

Variable Repeat Audio Delay
by Tim Sawyer 24 Oct '11

24 Oct '11

App_rpt has an indeterminate repeat audio delay on our system. Sometimes we hear ourselves when we unkey other times not. The amount of delay varies from near zero to four or five words. Has anybody else experienced this on their system? -- Tim :wq

Echolink permit config
by Ed Wilhelm 23 Oct '11

23 Oct '11

I tried adding permit=*-* to limit connections to rf based stations and reduce the drive by connects. That seems to work fine but I would like to add exceptions for several stations. Tried inserting their callsigns but apparently the wildcard has priority. Tried putting it at the end of the line but no difference. Any suggestions? Ed W8VT

Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk.ctl exist?)
by Lu Vencl 21 Oct '11

I keep having this issue with one of my nodes. Anyone have any idea why I get this? Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk.ctl exist?) If I reboot, it clears up. Thanks 73 KA4EPS

Feature Request: web control interface
by Mike Ping 20 Oct '11

20 Oct '11

Maybe this is already possible but I don't see it anywhere. Having a simple web interface where a user or a control op who isn't command line savvy could point their web browser to an address and be able to do basic functions such as connect or disconnect a link or shut off the repeater would be very useful. On the Echolink software they have that option. Its not real fancy but was very useful. Has anyone set something like this up? Mike - N3KPU

Reading archives
by Mike Ping 20 Oct '11

20 Oct '11

I asked this question before and still haven't conquer this problem. I am trying to view the Gzip'd Text archives on the App_rpt-users Archives webpage at http://ohnosec.org/pipermail/app_rpt-users/. I have tried the instructions found at http://johnpoelstra.com/tag/import/ and it works for his example but when I apply the same instructions for the files of this group it doesn't produce anything I can read. When I download and unzip I get a .txt file but when I open it all I get is a bunch of box symbols It would be really useful to be able to search these locally all in one folder as opposed to browsing through each month one at a time. Any suggestions? Mike - N3KPU
