Hi folks,

I was recently installing g729 support as usual (register, cp codec_g729 to
modules) and found out that the resulting asterisk instances freezes
whenever g729 commands are executed in the command line.

The registration process went OK and I can see the module being loaded by
asterisk:

After I can, sometimes, execute g729 CLI commands:

But no g729 seems to be loaded:

Whenever I try to execute g729 show licencese, the CLI freezes and, in a
few, asterisk itself freeezes:
*CLI> g729 show licenses
*CLI> core show translation
*CLI> core show translation

I’ve tried both 1.8.8.1 and 1.8.11.0 asterisk versions, and generic and
barcelona g729 binaries from
http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/codec_g729/asterisk-1.8.0/x86-64/

Whenever I delete the codec_g729a.so module everything runs smoothly.

Is there any issue or incompatibility between 1.8 and g729?

Thank you very much in advance,
Samuel.

Hi,

I have installed asterisk 1.8.11.0. but there’s a problem with the sip
channel module.

The module chan_sip.so exists in /usr/lib/asterisk/modules, but it
won’t load at startup.
CLI command module load chan_sip.so also did not work.

Thanks for answer.  Devices PAP2 and SPA3000 works good and use FSK for VMWI and CallerID, so I think TDM410P should also works.  CallerID works good.  So issue should be in source code of VMWI.

Hi,

Tough Freepbx is not the main focus of this list, may I ask if Freepbx
and its End Point Manager module can work in an environment with an
HTTP proxy ?

In my testing, everything works OK but one thing: I can’t upload End
Point product list :

in End Point Configuration tab, when I click over Check for Updates
button, I get this:
Not able to connect to repository. Using local master file instead.
Aborting Brand Downloads. Can’t Get Master File, Assuming Timeout Issues!
Learn how to manually upload packages here (it’s easy!): Click Here!

Any pointer would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

how can I add/enable app_rpt module to Asterisk 1.8?

Thanks… Béla
