| 05:42.38 | Gerbilest | hi there, I have a correction for your tutorial on setting up the simple 2 pbx example that had me confused for a few hours |
| 05:43.03 | Gerbilest | since it's the starter example I may just be wrong, but once i fixed what I think is the issue my example worked great |
| 05:43.11 | WIMPy | What tutorial? |
| 05:43.21 | Gerbilest | https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/The+Most+Basic+PBX |
| 05:43.26 | Gerbilest | the most basic pbx example |
| 05:43.31 | Gerbilest | where you guide users through a 2 phone setup |
| 05:44.34 | Gerbilest | since I'm a noob it took me a long time to figure out with the mistake in the instructions |
| 05:45.28 | WIMPy | Is that just me and Confluence again or is there no real content? |
| 05:45.52 | Gerbilest | look on the left and follow the bullet points through |
| 05:46.06 | Gerbilest | creating sip accounts, registering phones to asterix etc. |
| 05:46.09 | WIMPy | Ok, so which part? |
| 05:46.36 | Gerbilest | when you go through the registering phones to asterix it tells you to make a friends-internal template |
| 05:46.41 | Gerbilest | where the context is from-internal |
| 05:46.58 | Gerbilest | but if you set it up according to the rest of the tutorial you will not get it to work |
| 05:47.11 | Gerbilest | because in the dialplan config it is not set to the same context |
| 05:47.29 | Gerbilest | I had to set the context in the sip.conf to users |
| 05:47.47 | Gerbilest | or vice-versa change it in the dialplan |
| 05:48.36 | Gerbilest | excuse e, the extensions.conf |
| 05:48.57 | Gerbilest | either way the contexts obviously need to match up between the files and it had me running in circles for a few hours |
| 05:49.33 | Gerbilest | does that make sense? |
| 05:49.35 | Gerbilest | do you see what I mean? |
| 05:49.45 | WIMPy | Yes |
| 05:49.56 | Gerbilest | I figure since it's the noobie tutorial it should probably be mentioned |
| 05:49.59 | WIMPy | I wonder if those examples are ment to be used literally. |
| 05:50.03 | Gerbilest | normally I'm not too anal about mistakes |
| 05:50.05 | Gerbilest | yes they are |
| 05:50.10 | Gerbilest | it's a continuous project |
| 05:50.17 | Gerbilest | with clear intro and outros to the next section |
| 05:50.26 | Gerbilest | they form a cohesive little project |
| 05:50.47 | WIMPy | Yes, I guess so. |
| 05:50.47 | Gerbilest | like I said, as a new person who was directed to this tutorial through reading the beginners documentation |
| 05:50.53 | Gerbilest | I just thought it might be worth changing |
| 05:51.02 | Gerbilest | it was a very frustrating start for me lol ;) |
| 05:51.13 | Gerbilest | but now I suppose I know to check contexts lol |
| 05:51.18 | WIMPy | Oh, that's only the beginning :-) |
| 05:51.24 | Gerbilest | I'm sure |
| 05:51.29 | Gerbilest | but it is a copy paste kind of tutorial |
| 05:51.33 | Gerbilest | so I figured it was worth changing |
| 05:51.37 | Gerbilest | for the other poor noobs out there |
| 05:52.13 | Gerbilest | will you make sure it gets changed? |
| 05:52.19 | Gerbilest | or do I have to submit that somewhere |
| 05:53.18 | WIMPy | I'm not that much in to the wiki, really, but I thought there was a comment option somewhere. |
| 05:53.36 | Gerbilest | I just came in here since that was what was on the documentation |
| 05:53.45 | Gerbilest | like I said, new to the asterisk community |
| 05:55.03 | WIMPy | This channel is usually completely dead. So this conversation might get some attention, unless everyone is off for the holidays already. |
| 05:56.02 | Gerbilest | well I'd think it would be an important change |
| 05:56.11 | Gerbilest | maybe I will check back another time |
| 05:56.55 | WIMPy | If I see someone who might be in to it, I will try to remember to tell about it. |
| 05:57.10 | Gerbilest | ok thanks, I'll try to check back sometime after the holidays |
| 05:57.28 | Gerbilest | have a good one |

| 15:58.50 | WIMPy | newtonr: Did you see that ^^? Or who would care about that? |
| 16:32.58 | newtonr | I didn't see it. I had my head buried under webrtc yesterday. Let me take a look |
| 16:36.54 | newtonr | WIMPy, yup I can fix that. Thanks for pinging me. |
