OK, I tried that... it looks like the reverse autopatch *does* work correctly when dialed into via pure IAX. Unfortunately, only being able to use native IAX clients doesn't meet the requirements for what I'm trying to do. I'll study up some more on how Local channels work, maybe I'm not using that mechanism correctly. Thanks, Josh On 10/10/2011 6:21 PM, Jim Duuuude wrote:

okay, try calling it directly from your IAX client, rather then through a Local channel

Jim,

That would be correct, if I had left the [radio] context as it was in the bundled Allstar dialplan, where this line

exten=_07XX,1,Goto(parkedcalls|${EXTEN:1}|1)

makes it necessary to dial the leading "0." I created a different radio context, and simply added

include => parkedcalls

so that the pickup code *is* actually just '701'.

Because I don't understand everything about this system, though, I tried reverting that part of my dialplan back to the Allstar configuration, just to see if that made a difference. It didn't - the autopatch still gets hung up within a second or two of connection. Dialing through the Local channel is the thing I'm doing that's significantly different than anything in the Allstar dialplan, so I'm guessing that's where the problem is - but I'm not smart enough to find it yet.

Thanks, Josh

Thats because youre missing a 'digits/0' between the incall and the PARKED, such as:

Rpt(${EXTEN:1}|Rrpt/node:NODE:rpt/in-call:digits/0:PARKED|120)

The code to pick that up should be '0701' *not* 701

Hello,

I'm trying to set up a system that has a reverse autopatch as one of its features. The problem I'm having is that when a radio user dials the code to pick up an incoming call, the call gets disconnected almost immediately upon connecting. I'm certain the problem is that I've not set things up properly, but I'm still inexperienced enough that I could really use some help troubleshooting.

My Asterisk system is running from a recent ACID image (downloaded maybe three weeks ago). The machine also has a TDM400P card with an FXS module connected to an analog telephone I'm using to originate incoming test calls to the repeater system.

The relevant parts of my dialplan are as follows:

In context *phones_local*:

exten => 272727,1,Dial(Local/CQCQCQ@repeater) (Apparently, I can't directly connect to app_rpt from a Zap channel, so I dial through a Local channel instead.)

Then, in context *repeater*:

exten => CQCQCQ,1,Rpt(5674,Rrpt/in-call:PARKED,120) (This is an isolated system, so the node number is simply my name on a telephone keypad.)

What happens is this: I dial 272727 from the analog telephone, and I hear the announcement over the radio just fine. I send *6701 from the radio, and hear "Connecting" from the repeater along with echoing audio from the analog phone (because it's right there next to the radio). Then, I immediately hear "Call terminated" and the autopatch drops. The analog phone doesn't get hung up, though.

Here's what I see on the Asterisk console. For this trace, I was actually dialing in from an IAX softphone rather than the Zap channel, but the behavior is exactly the same.

I see some things about invalid return context and zombie channels, but I'm not sure what that means. Any idea what it is I'm missing?

Thanks, Josh
