[asterisk-biz] Question about adding Extensions programmatically

[Dave Phillips]

Okay, here's the thing and I probably should have included this in the
previous post:

1.  I'm using PBXInAFlash distribution
2.  I'm not able to modify the asterisk server itself at this time (due to
my lack of understanding of the whole thing) however, I AM able to modify
the mySQL asterisk database utilizing a language that I AM familiar with.
3.  I'm looking for a solution where I can just insert the necessary rows
into the asterisk DB and/or FTP the necessary file (unavail.wav) into a
specific folder on the asterisk server, as I'm doing all this REMOTELY from
another server.

Is this even possible?

Thanks!

Dave

Dave,

I'd suggest building the normal mailbox structure under 
/var/spool/asterisk/voicemail, and in each mailbox directory make a 
symlink called unavail.wav pointing to your system recording file. For 
example:

/var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/100/greeting.wav -> 
/opt/yourcode/master.wav
