[Asterisk-Users] RE: Realtime Config

[Douglas Garstang]

Actually, this is weird too...

I have in my res_mysql.conf file:
queues => mysql,voxdb,ast_queues
queue_members => mysql,voxdb,ast_queue_members

and I an connecting to realtime. I removed the agents.conf file. Upon load, Asterisk reports:
Dec 22 09:56:40 NOTICE[18475]: chan_agent.c:1033 read_agent_config: No agent configuration found -- agent support disabled

I run a network trace when I try to call AgentCallbackLogin and Asterisk isn't even querying the database. So, it appears that with extconfig configured, and no agents.conf file, Asterisk just disables the feature. What am I missing?

Thanks,
Doug

Subject: Realtime Config


I'm a little confused about something with Realtime.

It isn't clear to me what order Asterisk prefers to read the config. If we are using realtime, do we have to completely throw away the use of the .conf files? Sometimes not it appears. Extensions.conf lets you have a switch command to call into Realtime. For other conf files, you can use the realtime static table to load the general sections, or can you? I guess this question doesn't make much sense because the docs don't make much sense to me.

My preference is to have static stuff in the config files and have dynamic portions, ie bits that might change, in realtime.
