[asterisk-users] meetme dahdi and zaptel

That's very strange ... the code when is compiling checks whether
zaptel is present and then
the #define HAVE_ZAPTEL is set.

Since your error says No "ZAP" channel ...

and the code says

ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "No %s channel available for conference, user
introduction disabled\n", dahdi_chan_name);

and

in main/asterisk.c


#ifdef HAVE_ZAPTEL
static char _dahdi_chan_name[AST_CHANNEL_NAME] = "Zap";
#else
static char _dahdi_chan_name[AST_CHANNEL_NAME] = "DAHDI";
#endif

I deduct from that ... that you're still running zaptel and not dahdi.
Because your log should say "No DAHDI channel available ..." UNLESS
for some reason you only compiled
chan_dahdi.so and copied it manually leaving the old app_meetme.so
with HAVE_ZAPTEL flag...

paste your lsmod output
