[Asterisk-Users] overlap dialing on a pri span

[salmon at netzquadrat.de]

Martin,

I probably should have mentioned that: overlapdial=yes was set in 
zapata.conf (I take it this option is inherited through all the
channels I configure in zapata.conf). I also did a fresh checkout today.

My guess is that the main problem for now lies in the fact that asterisk 
won't execute a dial application once it received the first digit. 
Apparently, the extension _X. won't spawn dial before asterisk hits 
the timeout:

exten => s,1,Wait,1                     ; Wait a second, just for fun
exten => s,2,Answer                     ; Answer the line
exten => s,3,DigitTimeout,2             ; Set Digit Timeout to 5 seconds
exten => s,4,ResponseTimeout,2          ; Set Response Timeout to 10 seconds
exten => _X.,1,Dial,Zap/g8/BYEXTENSION

I can see asterisk pick up:

    -- Executing Answer("Zap/159-1", "") in new stack
    
the receive some digits

DEBUG[22551]: File chan_zap.c, Line 3254 (zt_read): DTMF digit: 7 on Zap/159-1
DEBUG[22551]: File chan_zap.c, Line 3254 (zt_read): DTMF digit: 8 on Zap/159-1
<...>

and seconds (!) later asterisk dials out

    -- Executing Dial("Zap/159-1", "Zap/g8/BYEXTENSION") in new stack
    -- Called g8/78997899
    -- Channel 1, span 8 got hangup
	
Do you know why? Is there a minimum number of digits asterisk need for an
inital setup message?
