Hi Sir,
thanks for your promptly response. I am a newbie to asterisk. I have a intel dual core pc with 1 GB ram. I have installed Asterisk 1.6.0.5 and configured with Zoiper Soft phone. I want to connect my PSTN line to it and some other phones to the extensions so, what hardware I need to attach PSTN line to my asterisk server. Please let me know.

Thanks and Regards

Hi Rajib,

Well, if you copy pasted your AGI script as is, you have a small mistake with your ANSWER directive.

1. #!/usr/bin/php -q
2. answer();
10.
11. $agi->stream_file(”demo-congrats”,”#”);
12. do
13. {
14. $agi->stream_file(”enter-some-digits”,”#”);
15. $result = $agi->get_data(’beep’, 3000, 20);
$keys = $result['result'];
16.
17. $agi->stream_file(”you-entered”,”#”);
18. $agi->say_digits($keys);
19. } while($keys != ‘111′);
20. $agi->hangup();
21. ?>

In addition, it would appear that you didn’t even construct the AGI object correctly. If you refer to page 105 of my book, you would notice that lines 3 through 7 are missing from your script.

Try also to increase your console debug level via the /etc/asterisk/logger.conf file, that may shed some more information in regards to what breaks your script.

Cheers,
Nir

Hello Sir,

I have a problem with the following code (took from your book). It
doesnot make a beep sound and takes ainput. I am using Zoiper soft
phone to test it with an IAX2 account.
$result = agi->get_data(“beep”, 3000, 20);
say_digits() also not working.

My code looks like…

1. #!/usr/bin/php -q
2. answer();
10.
11. $agi->stream_file(“demo-congrats”,”#”);
12. do
13. {
14. $agi->stream_file(“enter-some-digits”,”#”);
15. $result = $agi->get_data(‘beep’, 3000, 20);
$keys = $result['result'];
16.
17. $agi->stream_file(“you-entered”,”#”);
18. $agi->say_digits($keys);
19. } while($keys != ’111′);
20. $agi->hangup();
21. ?>

asterisk out put….
