Hi,

I found that the problem was reported as "(0013251) endbeforehexten=yes is
useless now"

I use the exten H for creating a MYSQL Database for billing, this database
has the CDR fields plus additional fields like, LATA, City, State where the
call was originated o finalized, the DID for incoming calls and the rate
charged to the call.

In * 1.4.22 the functionality of exten H was changed and the parameter of
cdr.conf endbeforehexten=yes has no effect.

I has 17 * installations in production and this is a critical paramter for
us.
One of the main reasons for us to migrate to 1.4.22 is because CHANSPY
produce * crash when the SPYGROUP is emptied. I understand the ChanSpy
problem was solved on 1.4.22

The CDR CSV (Master.csv) is correct and has all the information regardinbg
call duration and Date/Time.
