| 14:55.56 | Alric | Why the heck isn't lynx part of the CentOS default distribution! :) |
| 14:57.12 | Alric | Hey, anyone know how to remotely reboot a Sipura? :) |
| 14:58.38 | jsmith | elinks |
| 14:58.50 | jsmith | I mean, install the elinks package and then run "links" |
| 14:59.06 | Alric | I just installed lynx and ran lynx... |
| 14:59.09 | Alric | Is links better? |
| 14:59.29 | jsmith | To remotely reboot a Sipura phone, go to your browser and type "http://192.168.123.222/admin/reboot", where 192.168.123.222 is your Sipura's IP address |
| 14:59.34 | jsmith | yes, links is better |
| 14:59.39 | Alric | hrm |
| 14:59.42 | Alric | Turns out it doesn't matter anyway. |
| 14:59.46 | Alric | Stupid Sipura is nated |
| 15:00.04 | Alric | Trying to break into that nat... |
| 15:00.52 | jsmith | You could try "sip notify sipura-check-cfg <sip_peer_name>" from the Asterisk CLI |
| 15:01.02 | Alric | Yeah, tried that. |
| 15:01.15 | Alric | I don't have the Sipuras set up to provision themselves though. |
| 15:01.19 | Alric | So I don't know if that'd even work. |
| 15:01.51 | jsmith | It will, if they're talking to Asterisk and don't require AUTH for for the resync |
| 15:02.07 | Alric | hrm |
| 15:02.10 | Alric | They shouldn't. |
| 15:02.34 | Alric | Hey, any idea what the failure codes for placing .call files mean? |
| 15:02.44 | Alric | reason 3, reason 5 etc don't mean much to me... |
| 15:02.53 | jsmith | No clue. |
| 15:02.56 | jsmith | I use the manager interface |
| 15:03.07 | Alric | Jan 29 09:02:59 NOTICE[28850]: pbx_spool.c:269 attempt_thread: Call failed to go through, reason 3 |

| 16:34.34 | jsmith | Is it happy? |
| 16:34.38 | blitzrage | of course it is! :) |
| 16:34.56 | blitzrage | another week of fun and adventure in Asterisk! |
| 18:29.38 | blitzrage | if I do this... should it not work? |
| 18:29.49 | blitzrage | Set(__USERNAME=${CUT(CHANNEL,-,1)}) |
| 18:30.04 | blitzrage | and by work, I mean be inherited to say, the Local channel when I Dial() it |
| 18:30.04 | jsmith | Yeah, that should work. |
| 18:30.14 | jsmith | Sure, why not |
| 18:30.22 | blitzrage | it doesn't inherit unless I do |
| 18:30.26 | blitzrage | Set(__USERNAME=${USERNAME}) |
| 18:30.34 | jsmith | To be honest, I've never actually used inherited variables in production |
| 18:31.16 | blitzrage | ok cool, if you don't see anything obviously wrong, I will verify that I'm seeing that, and ask in -bugs if I should open a bug report |
| 18:31.28 | jsmith | OK |
| 18:31.36 | blitzrage | oh inherited variables are super handy! |
| 18:32.02 | jsmith | I'm sure they are... I just haven't ever found a need for them |
| 18:32.05 | blitzrage | obviously you've just never run into a situation that you've needed them |
| 18:32.08 | blitzrage | :D |
| 18:32.56 | jsmith | Exactly! |
| 18:33.05 | jsmith | I hate Mondays, by the way |
| 18:34.37 | blitzrage | why?!?!?! |
| 18:34.41 | blitzrage | Monday's kick ass :D |
| 18:35.53 | jsmith | Well, this one is certainlly kicking mine |
| 18:37.45 | blitzrage | hrmmmmmm.... how do you pass a value to ODBC_SQL again when the value you want to pass has a comma in it? |
| 18:38.06 | blitzrage | I can't escape with \, because the value is populated from the CHANNEL var |
| 18:38.07 | jsmith | SQLESCAPE |
| 18:38.11 | jsmith | function |
| 18:39.21 | blitzrage | SQL_ESC only escapes single ticks |
| 18:54.26 | jsmith | Ok, so I'm not sure I understand your problem |
| 18:58.21 | Alric-Ofce | Today is the work cutoff day for a problem customer! :) |
| 19:01.05 | jsmith | w00t! |
| 19:01.28 | blitzrage | w00t indeed! |
| 19:10.15 | Alric-Ofce | ... maybe not.... |
| 19:10.35 | Alric-Ofce | Its great when you have to ask yourself what else could possibly go wrong. |
| 19:10.47 | Alric-Ofce | Just when you think it can't get worse, it does. |

| 19:40.12 | Alric-Ofce | Are you kidding me? :) |
| 19:40.23 | jsmith | Nope. |
| 19:40.33 | Alric-Ofce | USG funded this? |

| 19:41.08 | jsmith | Well, this weekend I ran into a USG person who funds projects in Africa |
| 19:41.27 | jsmith | So, I put two and two together and decided to see if our friendly tax dollars couldn't be put to good use |
| 19:42.19 | Alric-Ofce | So you're at the core of all that? |
| 19:42.36 | Alric-Ofce | Hrm. That article is dated July 2005. Wow... |
| 19:47.55 | jsmith | No, all I did was talk to the govt. guy and said "go send these guys some money" |
| 19:48.04 | jsmith | I'm as far from the core as I could possibly be |
| 21:13.39 | blitzrage | jsmith: ping |
| 21:13.47 | jsmith | ACK |
| 21:14.09 | blitzrage | do you happen to have a couple minutes to have a quick chat with Paul and I? |

| 21:14.30 | blitzrage | n[p |
| 21:17.23 | blitzrage | Paul is going to forward you an email |
| 21:19.12 | blitzrage | just have a look at that email, then jump on 202 whenever you have a chance. Paul and I are just going to idle there while I eat some lunch :) |
| 21:19.59 | jsmith | OK. |
| 21:20.02 | jsmith | Just finished up that call |

| 21:51.34 | jsmith | ctooley: Howdy! |
| 21:51.44 | ctooley | Hey jsmith. Cold up there? |
| 21:52.04 | jsmith | ctooley: It was on Friday night when I was camping outdoors with the Boy Scouts |
| 21:52.07 | jsmith | 17 degrees |
| 21:52.19 | ctooley | well then... move south. :) |
| 21:52.20 | jsmith | Right now, it's a balmy 32 |
| 21:52.33 | jsmith | ctooley: Yeah, but I've been in Texas in the summertime. No thanks... |
| 21:52.48 | ctooley | :) It's not as bad as it seems... |
| 21:52.53 | ctooley | it's generally much worse |
| 21:53.00 | jsmith | Yup... |
| 21:53.15 | jsmith | Thankfully, most of my time in Texas was in a cold datacenter |
| 21:53.20 | ctooley | I'm actually going to be flying into KC on a fairly regular basis now |
| 21:53.33 | ctooley | Isn't that where you guys are? |
| 21:53.43 | jsmith | That's where our headquarters are. |
| 21:53.44 | jsmith | I'm in Virginia |
| 21:53.47 | jsmith | Leif is in Toronto |
| 21:53.49 | ctooley | oh |
| 21:53.59 | blitzrage | ctooley: !!! |
| 21:54.00 | jsmith | But I'm in KC a lot teaching classes |

| 21:54.37 | jsmith | ctooley: How's the new gig? |
| 21:56.42 | ctooley | It's good, but since my kids just moved to Missouri (just north of KC) I'm actually going to have to start looking for yet another new job. |
| 21:56.54 | ctooley | We're struggling here with chan_sip in Asterisk |
| 21:56.57 | ctooley | it's been tough |
| 21:57.30 | jsmith | Oh yeah? |
| 21:57.42 | jsmith | I'm sorry to hear you kids moved to Missouri |
| 21:57.47 | jsmith | s/you/your/ |
| 21:57.47 | ctooley | Yeah. 350 bridged channels seems to be the upper limit that we're getting to. |
| 21:57.59 | jsmith | BTW, we're hiring ;-) |
| 21:58.06 | ctooley | Yeah? |
| 21:58.08 | ctooley | what for? |
| 21:58.10 | jsmith | Last but not least, what kind of SIP problems are you having? |
| 21:58.19 | jsmith | ctooley: Trainers / consultants |
| 21:58.27 | jsmith | ctooley: Front page of www.sokol-associates.com |
| 21:58.28 | ctooley | hmmm |
| 21:58.35 | ctooley | I'll work on my resume. :) |
| 21:58.37 | jsmith | And we'd prefer you were in KC. |
| 21:58.44 | jsmith | ;-) |
| 21:58.54 | jsmith | See, now you can't say I've never done anything for you |
| 21:59.03 | jsmith | Not required, but preferred |
| 21:59.05 | ctooley | I'm actually wanting to move to Omaha |
| 21:59.18 | jsmith | That may be close enough to KC |
| 21:59.47 | ctooley | I'm sure Jodi would not appreciate the required amount of travel though. She's already worried about me working too much. :) |
| 21:59.56 | ctooley | But... I'll polish up the resume. |
| 22:00.40 | jsmith | How's she doing, anyway? I'm still worried about that last night at AstriCon... and feel bad you had to drive all the way back for your server |
| 22:01.11 | ctooley | Oh, that's my ex-wife. And she's ok |
| 22:01.29 | ctooley | The return trip turned out to be a good thing. |
| 22:01.36 | jsmith | Oh... OK. |
| 22:02.05 | ctooley | Anyway. It's a mess. Everything is much better now except not getting to spend much time with my kids |
| 22:02.14 | ctooley | But. The SIP thing... |
| 22:02.15 | blitzrage | ctooley: yah, I seem to not be able to get more than that many channels either from my testing with SIPp |
| 22:02.25 | ctooley | it's messy too |
| 22:02.34 | jsmith | SIP is like divorce? |
| 22:02.59 | ctooley | the problem is not that we're only getting 350 bridged calls, it's that Asterisk is segfaulting during varying amounts of load |
| 22:03.52 | jsmith | That's not cool. |
| 22:03.59 | jsmith | Segfaulting in the SIP channel? |
| 22:04.46 | ctooley | we're not sure exactly where it's segfaulting. |
| 22:07.22 | ctooley | Alric-Ofce, that's entirely possible |
| 22:07.30 | ctooley | is the Manager Interface in 1.4 flaky? |
| 22:07.58 | blitzrage | you're using 1.4? |
| 22:08.03 | ctooley | yes |
| 22:08.08 | Alric-Ofce | I can't run 1.4 due to the flaky audio thing. |
| 22:08.10 | blitzrage | Even oej says the SIP channel in 1.4 should not be put into production at this point |
| 22:08.24 | ctooley | blitzrage, that's super |
| 22:08.33 | ctooley | blitzrage, when do we think that status might change? |
| 22:08.46 | blitzrage | he is in Alabama this week, and him, Kevin, and a couple others are supposed to be trying to resolve that |
| 22:09.12 | blitzrage | so you might want to ping him and see if there is anything you can do to help test and debug to resolve your issues |
| 22:09.41 | Juggie | everyone should know 1.?.0 releases are not really something you would want to upgrade to. |
| 22:09.50 | Juggie | in anything, in linux kernel, anything. |
| 22:09.57 | blitzrage | agreed |
| 22:10.10 | Juggie | i wont touch it till 1.4.2 or so. |
| 22:10.20 | blitzrage | which is probably why they didn't mind releasing 1.4.0 even though it probably shouldn't have been released as a "release" version at the time |
| 22:10.40 | blitzrage | I'm testing on it now on my new platform, but if I have to run it in production like... next week, I'll have to drop back to 1.2 |
| 22:11.38 | Juggie | yah, i think nic has a box with 1.4 on it |
| 22:11.41 | Juggie | but we dont run it in production |
| 22:11.47 | Juggie | we are still runnning 1.2.9.1 i think :) |
| 22:12.29 | blitzrage | 1.2.12.1 has been good to me |
| 22:15.15 | ctooley | We're having all kinds of issues with 1.2.14 which is why it was recommended that we move to 1.4 |
| 22:15.29 | ctooley | 1.2 has a horrible "bridge" mechanism |
| 22:16.45 | ctooley | The whole RTP going through core thing is a real performance killer |
| 22:21.03 | jsmith | Yeah... the bridging is much better in 1.4, but you really need to be using the latest 1.4 branch (from SVN), not 1.4.0 |
| 22:21.48 | ctooley | svn on a platform doing millions of minutes a day scares the bejebus out of me |
| 22:22.34 | Alric-Ofce | svn scares me too. |
| 22:22.45 | Juggie | you misunderstand svn |
| 22:22.47 | Alric-Ofce | but I do maybe 60 minutes a day. |
| 22:23.05 | Juggie | if you were using trunk, you should be worried |
| 22:23.07 | Alric-Ofce | So my fear may / may not be irrational ;) |
| 22:23.19 | Juggie | but using 1.4svn is just using all the fixes before 1.4.1 is released. |
| 22:23.35 | Alric-Ofce | and whatever unintentional problems those fixes cause? |
| 22:23.51 | Juggie | but they will be in 1.4.1 anyways unless you find them :) |
| 22:24.13 | Alric-Ofce | but once 1.4.1 comes along, there will be enough lemmings that jump the cliff before I come to it. |
| 22:24.19 | Alric-Ofce | and they'll find all the bumps on the way down. |
| 22:27.49 | blitzrage | Alric-Ofce: I think you under estimate the number of people testing the cutting edge |
| 22:29.01 | blitzrage | you're going to find bugs whether you're using 1.4 SVN or 1.4.1/1.4.2 if no one is really testing that much |
| 22:29.13 | Alric-Ofce | but cutting edge changes 30 minutes from now :) |
| 22:29.31 | Alric-Ofce | svn in an hour is likely not the same svn as it is right now, right? |
| 22:29.33 | blitzrage | that's why I subscribe to the -commits list |
| 22:29.40 | blitzrage | well duh |
| 22:30.12 | blitzrage | watch the commits -- you can tell when you should or shouldn't upgrade. If something touches chan_sip, then you know you have some testing to do before deploying down to your customers |
| 22:30.14 | Alric-Ofce | Eh, sorting through commits doesn't work for me. |
| 22:30.36 | blitzrage | I wake up in the morning and read the commits... takes like 15 mins (and that's when there is like 100 commits) |
| 22:30.44 | blitzrage | it's just good practice |
| 22:30.52 | blitzrage | at least for anyone seriously using Asterisk :) |
| 22:31.04 | blitzrage | or join #asterisk-commits and watch them in realtime |
| 22:32.58 | jsmith | Alric-Ofce: See, revision 52645 may have just solved your audio problem, but you may never know, unless you try it ;-) |
| 22:33.41 | Alric-Ofce | sigh |
| 22:33.46 | Alric-Ofce | Okay, so get this. |
| 22:33.55 | Alric-Ofce | These people have a VoIP PBX at two locations. They are linked. |
| 22:34.07 | Alric-Ofce | Yet the people at one location still dial the PSTN number at the other. |
| 22:34.37 | blitzrage | catch it and send it over VoIP |
| 22:34.38 | Alric-Ofce | Did rev52645 actually change SIP audio at all? |
| 22:34.47 | blitzrage | SIP doesn't do audio.... |
| 22:34.49 | blitzrage | RTP does |
| 22:34.57 | Alric-Ofce | You know what I mean. |
| 22:54.41 | ctooley | So 1.4svn is what I should be running in a production server? |
| 22:55.08 | jsmith | That's what I'm running |
| 22:55.23 | Juggie | well, i would run 1.2svn but, if its not 1.2svn then 1.4svn probally yes :) |
| 22:56.13 | jsmith | Yeah, really depends on if you need the new features in 1.4, like the Packet2Packet bridging, etc. |
| 23:44.31 | blitzrage | but yah... 1.4.0 is waaaay old now |
| 23:44.34 | blitzrage | many bug fixes |
| 23:59.04 | Alric-Ofce | cool |
| 23:59.21 | Alric-Ofce | (stumbling, as if hit by multiple cars and Mack trucks) |
