Hi Steve, Sorry for the late reply, I have been away in Brisbane.. I think I have found the problem, it looks like I have not been running rc.updatenodelist to create the rpt_extnodes file!!! As you can guess I am still learning.... Maybe we should put some debug statement in the code at line 4190 of app_rpt.c /* if file does not exist */ if (stat(myrpt->p.extnodefile,&mystat) == -1) { if (ourcfg) ast_config_destroy(ourcfg); ourcfg = NULL; ast_mutex_unlock(&nodelookuplock); return(NULL); } e.g if the stat() fails.????? e.g rc.updatenodelist is not running etc (assuming this is the correct part of the code) What do you think?? Also is there a chance I could get a development allstar node number as I need to test some configs before we put them on node 2393, the club 70CM repeater ? I have applied for one but I never get the email. Regards Anthony VK2ACP On Tue, Oct 20, 2009 at 8:58 PM, Stephen Rodgers < hwstar@rodgers.sdcoxmail.com> wrote:

Hi Steve, Thanks for the reply. The strange thing is that when we turn the debugging on we see no error messages at all!!! Neither is there anything in the log files... All we see is a "psuedo .... hangup" when we call allstar. Calling echolink creates a log list of connection messages and it works fine..
How do we check if the node list is updating correctly?
regards

Hi all, We recently built a new allstar asterisk repeater using a svn
development
build from a few weeks ago. ( I did have a small prob with the build but that was easy to fix by altering a makefile, I can elaborate if required) It works fine as a repeater with the DMK fob but when we call an allstar node it fails. However, when we call a echolink server it works fine. We parsed our older xipar config files to build the new configs for the svn build, I guess we may have missed something for the iax to work? It also seems to register ok on the allstar stats site... Any suggestions? When we put our older allstar repeater back in place it works fine on allstar so it can't be a network or firewall issue...

There should be connect errors displayed on the Asterisk console. It would be helpful to see those.
A hint: Maybe your node list is not updating correctly.

Use the following Asterisk cli commands to enable debugging and a more verbose output from Asterisk
core set verbose 4 rpt debug level 5
The node list should be located in file /var/lib/asterisk/rpt_extnodes
It is a text file so you can use text tools to view it.
The file gets downloaded every 10 minutes, and the top of the file should contain two recent time stamps which are no more than 30 minutes old.
The other thing to check is if the system is registering properly. If you use the following, Asterisk CLI command, you should get something similar to this:
radios*CLI> iax2 show registry Host dnsmgr Username Perceived Refresh State 67.xx.xx.xx:4569 N A2010 72.xx.xx.xx:4569 60 Registered
It's 3 AM here, and I can't sleep.
