> The dialplan fails to run the invalid "i" extension due to an uninitialized variable dat_exten in main/pbx.c
> In the following code I had to use the word OR instead of the pipe characters because JIRA was causing the text to display in an unexpected fashion.
> Because dst_exten contains random data, it fails at the block of code that reads:
> {code:title=in version 1.8.16.0}
> if (invalid
>  OR (ast_strlen_zero(dst_exten) &&
>   !ast_exists_extension(c, c->context, c->exten, 1,
>    S_COR(c->caller.id.number.valid, c->caller.id.number.str, NULL)))) {
> {code}
> {code:title=in version 11.0.0-beta2}
> if (invalid
>  OR (ast_strlen_zero(dst_exten) &&
>   !ast_exists_extension(c, ast_channel_context(c), ast_channel_exten(c), 1,
>   S_COR(ast_channel_caller(c)->id.number.valid, ast_channel_caller(c)->id.number.str, NULL)))) {
> {code}
> I have another newer system under CentOS 6.2 x86_64 that does not exhibit the problem, but nevertheless, there is a flaw in the code that goes back many generations.
> My company's production system had been running Asterisk 1.6.2.11-rc2 for several years under Fedora Core 5.  I wanted to use some of the newer features in Asterisk 1.8, so I installed the latest version.  However, when I tried placing a call, it would not go through.
> The console showed:
> auto fallthrough, channel 'SIP/131-00000005' status is 'UNKNOWN'
> My dialplan uses the i extension in several places and this was happening right where it should have dispatched extension i.  Once I applied the one line patch I am submitting, the problem went away.
