Rick,

I had same problem before and I gave it up since I didn’t get any answer from list. I am using another way(tricky but working) to do voice mail. Hope it can help you if you can’t fix it.

1. Check location in your routing parts before relay, if not, forward to Asterisk.

2. set up unconditional forward in ATA as 00 + ATA’DID. Make a route in SER and point 00* to Asterisk.

3. Strip 00 in Asterisk and send it to voicemail2(${EXTEN})

Regards

Leon Sun

Subject: [Serusers] ser and * voicemail

Hi All

I’m working with a ser script, written by someone that’s gone now, that routes inbound calls to an asterisk server for voicemail. The failure_route[1], sends calls to asterisk and the IVR plays if the ua is unreachable (not in location) “404”, “408” or  the ua is busy “486” but it doesn’t when the inv time exceeds 30 sec (rings for 30 sec or more). The call just stops ringing and 10 sec later gets a fast busy. Any ideas from anyone would be greatly appreciated. Here is the code I’m working with.

failure_route[1] {

            xlog("L_ALERT", "%Tf %mf ****** Failure Route 1: <%rm> <%rr> <%rs>\n");

            if(t_check_status("487")) {

                        break;

            };

            if(method=="INVITE" && (t_check_status("486|408|404|480"))) {

                        if(avp_db_load("$ruri", "s:mailbox"))

                                    avp_pushto("$ruri/username", "s:mailbox");

                        prefix("V");

                        rewritehostport("A.B.C.D:5060");

                        append_branch();

                        xlog("L_ALERT", "****** Transfering to Voicemail\n");

                        t_on_reply("1");

                        t_relay();

            };

}

Thanks

Rick
