Re: [Asterisk-java-users] asteriskServer.getChannelByName Timeout waiting for events from StatusAction

[Jorge <gus...@gm...>]

Hi,
Sorry :( . Let´s start again, I will try to clarify a bit the scenario. I
am really new to Asterisk I will try to do my best.

I want to talk to a device using DTMF tones using Asterisk. The main
problem is that the device can call o receive a call to/from Asterisk. The
main problem is that if the device is not connected to an extension (SIP
extension) or to a conference, the device hang up the call so it is
finished.

My idea taken from here (
http://blogtech.cardosi.net/2014/01/15/tutorial-on-lamj-part-4/) is
connecting the device to a conference. And sending the DTMF tones using the
channel that has been created.  Is it right? Do you have a better solution?

First case, If Asterisk calls I use (from
http://blogtech.cardosi.net/2014/01/15/tutorial-on-lamj-part-4) :

AsteriskChannel asteriskChannel =
asteriskServer.originateToExtension(channelName, "default",   "8600",
1, 10000);
asteriskChannel.playDtmf("1");

And a listener that detects the DTMF event that arrives. Like this (more or
less, it is not the exact code I am using) :
        ManagerConnectionFactory factory = new ManagerConnectionFactory(
                ip, user, password);
        managerConnection = factory.createManagerConnection();
        // login to Asterisk
        managerConnection.login();
        // Instantiate a new AsteriskServer
        asteriskServer = new AsteriskServerImpl(managerConnection);
        managerConnection.addEventListener(new ManagerEventListener(){
            public void onManagerEvent(ManagerEvent event) {
                if (event instanceof DtmfEvent) { ...

Second case and here is  the problem. What I have done is setting up the
incoming calls to the conference. So when the device calls the input is
directed to the conference and starts sending DTMF tones. With the DTMF
tone I get the channel name (DtmfEvent.getChannel())  but when I try to get
the channel object from the channel name
(asteriskServer.getChannelByName(mensaje.getCanal());) is where I have the
error.

"org.asteriskjava.live.ManagerCommunicationException: Timeout waiting for
events from StatusAction"

Please, let me know what is not explained and done properly.

Kind regards and thank you for your help.
