[asterisk-users] Getting Asterisk to work with GoogleTalk

[Alvin Austin]

Hello all,

We're trying to get the Asterisk to GoogleTalk functionality working, 
using the latest asterisk svn code (we've also tried with 1.4beta2).  
SVN Asterisk's make update displays:
   Updated to revision 59.
   Updated to revision 44477.

We've tried to follow the recipe (without success) in:
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+Speaks+with+Google+Talk

When Asterisk starts up, the WindowsXP GoogleTalk user (xyz456) sees the 
asterisk server (ast123) appearance.  When it tries to call the asterisk 
server, it hears ringing, but Asterisk does not answer (there is no 
indication in the CLI that it has received a call, except for the 
messages below).

Asterisk (run as:  asterisk -cfvvvvvv) shows the following messages 
several times:

JABBER: googletalk INCOMING: <iq to="ast123 at gmail.com/asterisk709EC6B7" 
from="xyz456 at gmail.com/gmail.F1D1B5C9" id="aaaac" type="result">
<query xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#info">
<identity category="client" type="pc"/>
<feature var="http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#info"/>
</query></iq>
    -- JABBER: I Dont have an IQ!!!

JABBER: googletalk INCOMING: <presence 
from="xyz456 at gmail.com/gmail.F1D1B5C9"
to="ast123 at gmail.com"><show>away</show><priority>0</priority>
<caps:c node="http://mail.google.com/xmpp/client/caps" ver="1.1" 
xmlns:caps="http://jabber.org/protocol/caps"/>
<status/><x xmlns="vcard-temp:x:update"><photo/></x></presence>
    -- JABBER: I am available ^_* 13
    -- JABBER: type is away
    -- JABBER: I Do know how to handle presence!!

Would anyone shed some light on what we're missing here, please?

Here are the relevant configuration file pieces...

(1) sip.conf
------------
[general]
context=from-gtalk
bindport=5060
bindaddr=0.0.0.0
srvlookup=yes
dtmfmode=rfc2833

disallow=all

allow=alaw
allow=gsm
maxexpirey=30
defaultexpirey=180
canreinvite=yes
nat=0
UserAgent=Asterisk
echocancel=yes
echocancelwhenbridge=yes


(2) gtalk.conf (this file is not present. Should it be??)


(3) jabber.conf
---------------
[general]
;debug=yes
;autoprune=yes
;autoregister=yes

[googletalk]
type=client
serverhost=talk.google.com

(4) jingle.conf

;context=guest

[google]
username=ast123 at gmail.com
disallow=all
allow=ulaw
context=from-gtalk

(5) extensions.conf (partial):
------------------------------
;incoming from GoogleTalk
[from-gtalk]
exten => s,1,NoOP("Incoming call from GoogleTalk to ast123 at gmail.com")
exten => s,n,Answer()
exten => s,n,Playback(thanks-for-calling)
exten => s,n,Dial(SIP/101,60,t)
exten => s,n,Hangup

;outgoing to GoogleTalk
[to-gtalk]
exten => 190,1,NoOp("Calling GoogleTalk user xyz456 at gmail.com")
exten => 190,n,Dial(Jingle/googletalk/xyz456 at gmail.com)


(note that ast123 at gmail.com and xyz456 at gmail.com are fictitious names 
for debugging only)


- If you have this working, please share your sanitized configuration files.
- Can you explain the messages "JABBER: I Dont have an IQ!!!" and 
"JABBER: I Do know how to handle presence!!" and what's required to 
correct the problems.

Thanks much,
Alvin
