[Asterisk-Users] Line is stuck off hook...

[Gene Kochanowsky]

Hi Steven,

I have analog lines connected to the fxo lines of the Zhone channel bank. All of your suggestions sound good. How do you set up the config file so it would play the greeting twice and then hangup the line?

That would fix the problem for the most part, but why isn't * releasing the line when the caller hangs up. 

Thanks!
Gene

What line signalling are you using? 

I'm assuming you are reffering to a phone line coming from the PSTN, is
it analog, or is it digital? 

Have you tried soft hangup on it?

Have you tried to place a timout on it, so asterisk finally times out
the call?

Maybe you would like to place a loop counter on the number of times the
call makes it through the timeout extension, and after some threshold,
you issue a hangup on the call.
