Re: [Astlinux-devel] Grrr I cant get Voicemail MWI status to refresh

[Michael K. <mic...@ip...>]

Thanks Lonnie

Well never having used AMI: VoicemailRefresh, I don't know if it ever worked or used for something else e.g. external MWI.
I basically want to be able to perform an MWI refresh for a specific mailbox and it seems to be more difficult than it should be.
I would rather not turn on FOP to do this (although that didn't seem to work for me either). Quite annoying.

Were you just using the UserEvent: FOP2RELOADVOICEMAIL?

As it currently stands, I will be implementing 1.3.6-13se when released and doing a 'voicemail reload'. 
PS I do like the concept of an SE variant now actually.

Thanks

Regards
Michael Knill

    Hi Michael,
    
    Good work, fortunately Asterisk 13.23.1 (13se) does not have this (28340) bug.  Are you saying VM MWI still has issue in 13.23.1 (13se) ?
    
    This (28340) bug has been fixed in 13.26.0 and 16.3.0, but only available in the current Pre-Release.

    We need to understand this VM MWI issue(s) more.
    
    I have tested Asterisk 13.23.1 and found a seeming obscure bug, but in general no issues.

As such a lot of extra testing was spent wrt VM MWI before the release of Astlinux 1.3.5.2 ... it should work for you.
