Did you have more than 10 concurrent AGI requests to your AGI server?
That might explain the delay that you encounter, because 10 is the
default pool size. You can adjust it in a properties file as shown in
the tutorial.
I have no idea what might be the cause for the prompts being played
twice and never encountered that. Maybe you can trace it if you enable
AGI debugging on Asterisk - but if its hard to reproduce...

whatever you want to say us with that crippled message...
I don't like posting spam messages here and i don't think creating fear
to acquire customers will get you anywhere.
Stop spreading gossip about a lack of documentation and start
contribution to a great community. If Asterisk configuration is that
hard for you maybe that is rather a sign of your limited capabilities
than a sign of a complex system.
If you enable people providing useful support for free on the mailing
list they will value you and your company and may ask you for commercial
support when they really need it - not because they fear Asterisk's
complexity but because they value your support.

[Asterisk-java-users] Asterisk/AGI response problem

[Jonathan A. <jau...@st...>]

I have been experiencing a strange problem over the past 2 weeks.  I  
wanted to find out if anyone has experienced anything similar.  This  
has happened about 3 or 4 times.  I have an Asterisk-Java app using  
the AGI interface.  Simply it answers a call, plays some prompts, and  
collects DTMF.  What has happened is that I have called in and the  
initial prompt plays twice.  I also note a long delay in the start of  
the prompts playing.  I have not timed the delay but it is on the  
order of 20-30 seconds.  When the prompts play they sound very clear,  
no stutter or other audio problems that would indicate a possible  
network issue.

Any ideas on similar experiences or how to attack troubleshooting  
this would be appreciated.  It has been very difficult to investigate  
since the problem does not seem to last for a long time.  The last  
incident this morning was only about 5 mins from the time I became  
aware of the issue.

Thank you,

Jonathan Augenstine

It seems that the callerId property is only available on Asterisk
servers patched with BRIstuff.
I've added it to the upcoming 0.3 release of Asterisk-Java.
For now you can either ignore the message, add the property to the
ExtensionStatusEvent or upgrade to a snapshot of 0.3.

Hello,
        
I have a small example program that
handle all events generated by an
asterisk server, and although it
works ok I am getting in the logs
the following message:
        
Unable to set property 'callerid' on class

It is not directly related to your question, but are you using an IDE such as

Re: [Asterisk-java-users] A newbie introduction

[Olivier <oza...@my...>]

Fred,

Have you considered buying a custom Asterisk system along training ?

Having a fully functionnal Asterisk system running and complying to your
requirements just needs a couple of hours for experienced staff but it asks
days and weeks of labour if one has to learn by himself from scratch
(reading mailing lists itself, consumes much time and ressources ).

I'm running a french 6 people startup dedicated to Asterisk consulting and
services.
As our customer base grows, I'm warning more and more oftenly, prospective
or old customers about what they can really hope with Asterisk home
customisation :

- If you operate a single system, it's very very likely you won't have the
opportunity to tune it or to try and learn with it : you spend weeks of
labour to make it run and then, you won't touch it anymore because you can't
stop your running system. So in the end, what are the benefits ? You've
learned something you won't use anymore.

- It's easy to specify programming interfaces and plug a Java software and
tune that application. But Asterisk deals with hardware and real time, and
believe me, it can be very very long to master its behaviour.

- Moving or adding users takes a couple of minutes. It's not necessary to
customise yourself your system to avoid paying anything for that (you can be
trained on that)
 but adding a queue, for example, will remain out of reach of most.

- It's Open Source but adding any significant feature is a dream for most
companies as the learning curve is very very steep (no documentation, no
training, ...)


Please, feel free to contact me off-list.
Best wishes for your project.

[Asterisk-java-users] "refreshing" AGI server on asterisk's reload

[wardsback <war...@no...>]

Hi there guys

I'm now doing some more tests.

Successfully running an AGI server and starting to play with scripts.

As I'm often modifying my main Java class (the one that gets called  
accordingly to fastAGI mappings), I need the AGI server to be aware of  
class changes. On first shot I just manually stopped and relaunched my  
AGIserver.
Then I had the idea to use Asterisk's reload command and an AGImanager in  
wich I watch for "net.sf.asterisk.manager.event.ReloadEvent" events.
So each time such an event is recieved, I decided to shutdown current  
server, spawn a new one, and start it up.
This way of doing does work (only once, though. i.e. server doesn't get  
shutdown and respawned on subsenquent Asterisk's "reloads"). Plus,  
something tells me I'm not doing it the "right" way. Any hints ?

No this is not supported by Asterisk-Java.
If you want to manage dialplan and SIP users from your Java application
you might want to have a look at Asterisk RealTime though and place your
config in a database that is easy to manage externally.
See http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+RealTime

Earlier at me was Fedora Core 4, then I migrated on Kubuntu. Under both

Astrisk I took from the repositories of these operational systems. (yum

Well, I guessed so, but this little thing will be a test-drive for me as  
I'll have soon to build something more elaborated including :

	- multiple database queries
	- text to speech (in french & other languages)
	- outgoing calls

and more....

You don't need Asterisk-Java to meet your current requirements just a

Basically this system will provide callers with a menu and redirect them=

If destination phone is busy, take a messge and mail it to concerned  =

really basic for now.

It would have to serve a dozen of people. Incomming calls will come  =

Hi,

What would the new "custom PBX using asterisk" be used for ?
How many people do you plan to serve ?

What are the key criteria (lower costs, self teaching, ...) that will make
you think your project is successful ?

Depending your replies, you could get better advice form the list.

Well, indeed, astersik was really easy to compile and set up on the Fedora  
Core 4 distro that was installed on the workstation I got assignedto.  
Unfortunately, troubles came when I made my first tests with Java. Fedora  
uses GCJ and not SUN's Java, so I got issues when trying to connect to a  
MySQL server with JDBC.

So I'm still looking around to find a good distro for Java developpement.  
I gave myself a few days to look around and test a few ones, starting with  
SuSE, tomorrow (wish me luck :P)

Considering the Apps I'm gonna build, well, it goes from company PBX  
(usual VoIP phone routing and call management) to brand new developpement  
for the same company wich offers software solution for "bank-to-bank"  
communications.

Next big project is to build an automated calling system for those banks.  
So they can issue calls to their debitors to ask for paiments. All this  
will include some Text To Speech. I still need to look around and find a  
good TTS technology to use.

OK, thanx for the tip. I thought I had to remove the GC Java before  
installing Sun's.
Which I did with "yum remove ...". But as a matter of dependencies, a lot  
of apps got "broken". So I guess
I'm gonna stick with Fedora (that is, redo a fresh install) and get Sun's  
alongside GCJ.
As you guessed, I'm quite new to linux, but learning fast (hopefully :) ).

thanx again

You don't really need to hunt down another distro to get a functional 
sun java.  Just download sun's jdk rpm for linux, install it, set your 
path to the new binary locations, and you're done.  I don't think the 
linux distros are allowed to distribute sun's jdk, otherwise they would 
probably include it out of the box.

I'm using sun's jdk with Fedora (3 and 5), and it works just fine.

Well, indeed, astersik was really easy to compile and set up on the Fedo=

Core 4 distro that was installed on the workstation I got assignedto.  =

Unfortunately, troubles came when I made my first tests with Java. Fedor=

uses GCJ and not SUN's Java, so I got issues when trying to connect to a=

MySQL server with JDBC.

So I'm still looking around to find a good distro for Java developpement=

I gave myself a few days to look around and test a few ones, starting wi=

Considering the Apps I'm gonna build, well, it goes from company PBX  =

for the same company wich offers software solution for "bank-to-bank"  =

communications.

Next big project is to build an automated calling system for those banks=

So they can issue calls to their debitors to ask for paiments. All this =

will include some Text To Speech. I still need to look around and find a=

If you are developing on windows go with the vmware solution suggested
by tony. trixbox offers a nice vmware image.
This setup will require a powerful dev machine, but hey, since you are
developing java apps you will already have one anyway ;)

If you are developing on linux you probably already chose a linux
distribution and setting up asterisk there shouldn't be too hard.
Asterisk really works well with all of the more common distributions.
