Summary:                    Dahdi support does not work (hangs at "Checking
write permission for GUI folder")
Description: 
When doing a clean install of asterisk 1.6.0.3-rc1 and any version of
Dahdi, the initial GUI setup will fail.  The 2.0 branch hangs at "Checking
write permission for GUI folder".  Pari's dahdi_support version goes into
infinite loop cycling between "Loading...", "Verifying dialplan contexts
needed for GUI", and "Checking write permission for GUI folder".

Upon further inspection, it seems that two calls to
ASTGUI.systemCmdWithOutput() don't seem to be working.  I
don't yet know why.

In index.js:

1. On line 222, this call is not working:
ASTGUI.systemCmdWithOutput( 'echo ' + rand_1  , function(s){ ...

2. and on line 418, this call is also not working:
ASTGUI.systemCmdWithOutput( sessionData.directories.script_detectdahdi ,
function(op){ ...

In the second case, I know that
"sessionData.directories.script_detectdahdi" is pointing to the correct
shell script, but for some reason, it is not run when the
systemCmdWithOutput() function is called.  I can run that script from the
command line with the same user permissions and it works.

(This issue may also be present with Asterisk version 1.4.x and any
version of Dahdi.)

noahisaac,
I've been working with someone from IRC having what appears to be the
exact same issue. We're making progress on resolving his issues. I'll keep
you updated.
