[Asterisk-Users] 'System' application exit with error even if it performs the job as expected - partially solved

[Dan]

Hi Martin,

I have modified the 'app_system.c' file like that and then recompile
asterisk:

        /* Do our thing here */
        res = system((char *)data);
//      if (res < 0) {
//              ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Unable to execute '%s'\n", (char
*)data);
//              res = -1;
//      } else if (res == 127) {
//              ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Unable to execute '%s'\n", (char
*)data);
//              res = -1;
//      } else {
//              if (res && ast_exists_extension(chan, chan->context,
chan->exten, chan->priority + 101, chan->callerid))
//                      chan->priority+=100;
//              res = 0;
//      }
        res = 0;
        LOCAL_USER_REMOVE(u);
        return res;


Now everything work as expected.
It seems to be a problem with the value returned by the 'system((char
*)data)' function which is -1 even if the command is executed successfully.

There is any reason to exit the System() application with -1 if the command
is unable to execute? Maybe a parameter somewhere can prevent this type of
behaviour.

BR,
Dan
