Wow, example by me.  I don't read the Wiki enough lately ;)

while you are recording, are there *-in and *-out files being created? 
Within seconds of hanging up, do they disappear to be replaced by a 
single file?  In my php I search for records using the following:

ls -1t --color=never --almost-all $thepath | grep -v in | grep -v out > 
/tmp/some_list3991-0s022

(aside from the fact that this type of ugly code should NEVER be found 
in the wild for too many reasons to go over)

so look for all files, ignore the ones that include the word in or the 
word out in the filenames..

The soft link bit isn't necessary to see the recordings listed, only to 
download them from the webpage.

So the areas in which this could mess up are A) sox isn't mixing 
anything, so therefore no files exist that don't contain "in" or "out" 
in the file name.  is soxmix for sure installed as part of the sox 
package?  try typing: "soxmix filename-in.wav filename-out.wav 
filename.wav" and when it's done, check with the recordings php again to 
see if it sees anything now.

B) bad permissions in the /tmp dir.  I'm trying to create and then 
re-read a text file.  "chmod 1777 /tmp"?

C) Do you set your monitor filename in the asterisk dialplan?  I never 
experimented with this but you should see recordings listed anyway, even 
with this option.

D) Depending on what distribution you're using, maybe my ls bit isn't 
right.  They are all pretty imperative switches for my use.   There are 
a billion ways to skin this cat, including with cut or awk.

All this is using Automon in features.conf, I assume this is the automon 
you speak of?

Hope this helps!
