Having searched the groups I have come up with the following in ser.cfg to forward calls from SER to Asterisk voicemail on timeout. The system should work as follows. E.g dial 8003. Ring phone at 8003 for 15 seconds then go to voicemail (at asterisk). Phenomena: 1. When the failure_route is exited though I can see some traffic hitting asterisk, the original phone at 8003 continues to ring. 2. If I press Deny on the phone at 8003 TWICE then the call goes to voicemail 3. If 8003 is on the offhook, call automatically goes to voicemail Points 2 and 3 are pretty much what I want. But in point 1, what am I doing wrong that doesn't cause the t_on_failure to stop ringing the destination phone. I include the relevant part of my ser.cfg below ............................ log("\nMARKER VOICEMAIL ATTEMPT STARTS HERE\n"); t_on_failure("1");#send to voicemail now log("\nMARKER VOICEMAIL ATTEMPT STOPS HERE\n"); ............................ ............................ failure_route[1] { log("\n MARKER IN FAILURE ROUTE START"); if(t_check_status("408")){ log("\nMARKER We have hit second status 408\n"); }; revert_uri(); rewritehostport("telth3.dyndns.org:5061"); append_branch(); log("\n MARKER IN FAILURE ROUTE AFTER APPEND BRANCH\n"); t_relay_to_udp("telth3.dyndns.org","5061"); log("\n MARKER IN FAILURE ROUTE END"); break; } ~ Muhammad Nasim TelAppliant Ltd Tel: 020 7740 3492 Int: +44 20 7740 3492 Main: 0845 004 4040 Fax: 0845 004 4041 www.telappliant.com TelAppliant is the UK's provider of IP telephony solutions for small and medium-sized businesses _____ The information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged.
