Re: [Asterisk-java-users] Unable to create the extension "exten => 1300, 1, Agi(agi://localhost/hello.agi)"

[T. L. P. T. <tom...@gm...>]

Hello Satya:
 Yes, you can integrate Asterisk-Java and FreePBX without any dirty work around.
 Let's see how this could be achieved.

 The first thing you should know about FreePBX configuration files is
that any modules that generates any configuration files, usually use
the name <configuration file>_additional.conf. Normally, a base
configuration file will include this FreePBX generated file. For
example, the base extensions.conf file that comes with FreePBX
includes (among others) the files extensions_additional.conf.
 It doesn't make any sense to modify extensions_additional.conf,
because the next time that changes are applied from the interface,
this file will be regenerated; dropping any changes done by hand.
Also, the base config file (in this case, extensions.conf) shouldn't
be edited. There is a better way to integrate your self developed
contexts, extensions and priorities.
 Most of the base config files of FreePBX include a file named
<configuration file>_custom.conf. In this case, you should edit
extensions_custom.conf and add your custom context.
 For example:

[custom-myAsteriskJavaApp]
exten => 1300,1,Agi(agi://localhost/hello.agi)

 Now, if you run an "extensions reload" command from the CLI, a new
context will be available. We are going to use this context to
integrate Asterisk-Java.

 To attach an inbound route to your Asterisk-Java application, you
will need to create a new Inbound route and select "Custom App" in the
"Set Destination" combo box. By using "Custom App", any incoming call
that matches this inbound route will be delivered to a context (which
must start with the "custom-" prefix) available to Asterisk. Copy the
name of this new context, the extension and the priority
(custom-myAsteriskJavaApp,1300,1) to the input box. Submit the changes
and apply the changes to Asterisk.

 You can now test an incoming call to the DID 1300 and have fun with
Asterisk-Java.

 Your mileage may vary but you should be able to have this example
working with little modifications. Let us know if you have any
problem.

Best regards, Tomás.
