[Asterisk-Users] Collecting dialed digits

[Frank Hoonhout]

I try using a similar setup for autoattendent for a inbound SIP call.
I notice that the SetResponseTimeout and SetAbsoluteTimeout, hang up the
call when executed.

When * get to step 5 or 6 (when 5 is commented out), it hangs up the call.
Here is the output from *.
 == Spawn extension (default, 12345, 5) exited non-zero on 'SIP/50007-5499'

Any ideas?

; Inbound SIP calls from FWD 
exten => 12345,1,Ringing			; Let it at least ring,
before pickup
exten => 12345,2,Wait,3				; Wait 3 seconds
exten => 12345,3,Answer				; Off Hook
exten => 12345,4,Wait,3				; Wait 3 seconds	
exten => 12345,5,SetResponseTimeout(20)	; Set Response Timeout for 20
seconds
exten => 12345,6,SetAbsoluteTimeout(60)	; Hang up call after 60 seconds if
no response
exten => 12345,7,Background(Greeting)	; Play Greeting
;
exten => t,1,Goto,12345|7			; If no response, replay
Greeting and goto 12345, step 7 
;
exten => 1,1,Playback(option1)	
exten => 2,1,Playback(option2)
exten => 3,1,Playback(option3)
