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:
  I'm running FreePBX 2.3.1.0 on my lab so I can't tell you exactly how yo
solve this issue. Actually, this issue isn't directly related to
Asterisk-Java.
 But doing some research in Google point out that the version 2.4 of FreePBX
has some changes in the "Custom App" drop down menu.

From: http://freepbx.org/trac/browser/freepbx/tags/2.4.0/CHANGES

Addition of Custom Applications Module. Provides a place to register custom
> extension numbers as well as custom destinations that are to be used in

 Maybe you could try installing this module in FreePBX and doing some tests.

 To verify if a context (and extension) is available to Asterisk, you can
run this command from the CLI:
show dialplan <exten>@<context> (Asterisk 1.2 or older)
dialplan show <exten>@<context> (Asterisk 1.4)

For example:

labbox*CLI> show dialplan 1300@custom-myAsteriskJavaApp
[ Context 'custom-myAsteriskJavaApp' created by 'pbx_config' ]
  '1300' =>         1. Agi(agi://localhost/hello.agi)
[pbx_config]

-= 1 extension (1 priority) in 1 context. =-
labbox*CLI>

Best regards, Tomás.
