[asterisk-dev] Page program limitation/bug

[Alexander Lopez]

There may be a string length issue here. In the mean time you can set up
'zones'

Exten =>
7999,1,Page(Local/1 at zone-page&Local/2 at zone-page&Local/3 at zone-page|)

[zone-page]
Exten =>
1,1,Page(Local/7110 at page&Local/7111 at page&Local/7112 at page&Local.......)
Exten=>
2,1,Page(Local/7120 at page&Local/7121 at page&Local/7122 at page&Local....)
Exten =>
3,1,Page(Local/7130 at page&Local/7131 at page&Local/7132 at page&Local....)

This will split your paging groups into zones and make it possible to
select 'areas' as well as page-all.

If you can determine that it is a character limit, by shortening the
extension numbers or change the [page] context to [pg] and seeing if it
fails at the same place, please open a ticket on bugs.digium.com....
