asterisk users - May 2004 - What has happened to my asterisk/PRI ?

Hi there,

I have an asterisk server with cvs-code from May 13,2004 and a Quad-PRI
Card.

1 Port of the Quad-Pri is connected to the Telekom-PSTN, the other
Port is connected to an Alcatel PBX. 

What I want is to make Asterisk Bridge the Calls from PBX to PSTN
and to add some VoIP Functionality and Logging.

Everything worked fine while testing but suddenly (maybe under
higher load ?) the system stopped working, we did not receive
any calls and we could not dial out.


In the attached Logfile we see on  "May 14 09:14:14" that asterisk
does not anymore recognize the extensions on dialin-calls. Asterisk
says:
"May 14 09:14:14 VERBOSE[1180010432]:     -- Extension '9149' in
context 'dtagpri' from '03081062309' does not exist.  Rejecting
call on channel 7, span 1
May 14 09:14:31 VERBOSE[1180010432]:     -- Extension '9149' in context
'dtagpri' from '03081062309' does not exist.  Rejecting call on
channel 8, span 1
May 14 09:16:14 VERBOSE[1180010432]:     -- Extension '9149' in context
'dtagpri' from '02166458729' does not exist.  Rejecting call on
channel 9, span 1
May 14 09:16:21 VERBOSE[1180010432]:     -- Extension '9149' in context
'dtagpri' from '02166458729' does not exist.  Rejecting call on
channel 10, span 1
"

I am sure all these callers called more Numbers than "9149", they
might have
called "9149-0" or 9149-xx" but not the "9149" alone.

Dialout also did not work anymore, an example from the log is this:
"May 14 09:46:00 VERBOSE[-1159015616]:   == Spawn extension (alcatel,
01706384000, 3) exited non-zero on 'Zap/62-1'
May 14 09:46:00 DEBUG[-1159015616]: Set option AUDIO MODE, value: ON(1) on
Zap/62-1
May 14 09:46:00 DEBUG[-1159015616]: Hangup: channel: 62 index = 0, normal = 78,
callwait = -1, thirdcall = -1
May 14 09:46:00 DEBUG[-1159015616]: Set option TDD MODE, value: OFF(0) on
Zap/62-1
May 14 09:46:00 DEBUG[-1159015616]: Updated conferencing on 62, with 0
conference users
May 14 09:46:00 DEBUG[-1159015616]: Set option AUDIO MODE, value: OFF(0) on
Zap/62-1
May 14 09:46:00 VERBOSE[-1159015616]:     -- Hungup 'Zap/62-1'"

I see no reason for not dialing out, but I see the Hangup in the same Moment
a call starts.

I also wonder about some entries in the Logfile like this:
May 14 07:41:14 DEBUG[-1947545024]: Added 19 to conference 9/62
May 14 07:41:14 DEBUG[-1947545024]: Added 78 to conference 9/1

What do they mean ? We did not intend to do conferencing.



Our Local Phone Nr. is "9149" and some number appended, my extensions 
look like that:


[alcatel]
ignorepat => 0
exten => _XXXX.,1,SetCallerId(9149${CALLERIDNUM})
exten => _XXXX.,2,Dial,ZAP/g1/${EXTEN}
exten => _XXXX.,3,Hangup


[dtagpri]
exten => _9149.,1,Dial,ZAP/g2/${EXTEN};
exten => _9149.,2,Hangup

Does somebody have an idea what has happened ?

I have loaded up the complete Logfile to http://www.niederrhein.de/asterisk.log
because
it is too large for a mailing list

Thanks

Just a hunch: Try

overlapdial=yes

in your zapata.conf file.
