[asterisk-ss7] DTMF generation of 1 failed on CIC=36.

[Arix koffi]

Hi all,

I re-install everyhting the linux OS, Asterisk, zaptel etc.. but Still the same Problem.

Here find the new message : DTMF generation of 3 failed on CIC=14 res=-1 errno=61: No data available.
I have alway the error message : Short read on linkset "green" CIC=54 (read only 0 of 160) errno=11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) (supressed 0).

I dont know where the problem come from. But I wondered if the E1 connection( transmission) with the MSC could be the problem for short read. In fact the Server is litlle bit far from the switch room.

Any idea ?

Br,
ARix

This is an error code from the zaptel driver when it is asked to generate the
DTMF digit. We would need to find out why this generates an error in your
case/

Can you apply the following patch, which adds more debug output, and post the
full message from the new version when the error occurs?

Or if you are not used to applying patches, just change line 299 of transport.c to this:

    ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "DTMF generation of %c failed on CIC=%d res=%d errno=%d: %s.\n", digit, cic, res, errno, strerror(errno));

This message indicates that chan_ss7 wanted to read 160 bytes (== 20
milliseconds) of audio from the SS7 data link, but not enough data was
available for some reason.

Given that you get both this message and the above error with DTMF generation
failed, it is possible that you have a problem with your driver installation,
configuration, or hardware for your zaptel interface. Ie. if there is a
driver-level problem with sending and receiving data on the link, this will
also cause problems on the ss7 level, which sits above. Your messages do not
have enough information to confirm or reject this theory, but you might want
to double-check it.

On the other hand, this message is not necessarily harmful. Do you get any
end-user visible problems when this message occurs, such as missing or
broken-up audio? Do you get other messages of this kind with a higher number
of suppressions (ie. "(suppressed 1000)") ? If so, please post details, if not
you might just ignore the message (and if you want to get rid of it in your
logs, just remove the line that prints it, it is line 2163 in the l4isup.c
file.

Also, it seems there is a Chan_ss7 beta 96 available on
http://www.dicea.dk/company/downloads which you might want to try...
