[Asterisk-bsd] hangup detection

[Brian Buhrow]

	Hello Jef.  I think your work around is a good idea.  I'd try
something like:

exten = t,1,setvar(RETRIES = ${RETRIES} +1)
exten = t,2,gotoif(${RETRIES} > 3?20)
exten = t,3,playback(invalid)
exten = t,4,goto(s,1) ;Or where ever you want people to wait.
exten = t,20,hangup ;Should only get here if sent by the gotoif above.


Hope that helps.

} Am running 1.0.8-BRIstuffed-0.2.0-RC8h on 5.4-RELEASE with a 4 port FXO

} We have been playing around with it for about a month and finally put it
} into production yesterday.  Twice in the past twenty four hours the first
} line has become "stuck" in our main menu:

} This continues forever until I physically unplug the phone line from the
} port, then plug it back in.  In the meantime the line rings busy from the
} outside.
} 
} I think I can work around whatever causes this by making the menu timeout
} and hangup, perhaps after some number of unsuccessful extensions?  Can
} someone help me with a dialplan example that would accomplish this?

} TIA!
