[Asterisk-Users] t1 won't dial outbound

[Joe Dennick]

It looks like your channel and group statements in the zapata.conf are the
problem.  Notice that when it tries to dial out it does so on Zap/6-1.  You
have the T-1 defined as 'Span 1,' but you are trying to send the calls to span
6.  It ain't gonna work!  I don't see anywhere where you've assigned the rest
of the channels on that T-1, either.  I would recommend either grouping them
all together (that's the easiest), or at least making sure you've got all of
the channels assigned to groups.  My zapata.conf is much simpler:
     signalling=pri_net
     group=1
     channel => 1-23

When it dials, then you will see the calls going out on Zap/1-1 or Zap/1-2,
etc.

Good luck; and have fun!

 I've posted this problem a couple of times before with little or no
 response.  Basically I have a T100P in my * box.  Incoming calls are
 working great.  However outgoing calls are not working at all.  I've
 copied a previous post into this message which should have all the
 necessary info.  Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
 Thanks.

 OK...I've got an * box with a T100P in it.  For the most part incoming
 calls are going through just fine.  Outgoing calls, however, I'm having
 some more trouble with.  Whenever I make an outgoing call, the call
 begins, however after the dialing process all I hear is dead air.
 Here's the output from my * console:
  
 -- Executing Dial("SIP/mark-2d08", "Zap/g3/2550559") in new stack
     -- Called g3/2550559
     -- Hungup 'Zap/6-1'
   == Spawn extension (uti-mainst, 2550559, 1) exited non-zero on
 'SIP/mark-2d08'
  
 I've checked with the switch guy...and whatever channel I'm trying to
 dial out on is coming up as "blocked" on his switch.  We've compared as
 many settings as we can think of and they all seem to be set the same.
 I'll post the entries from my zaptel.conf and my zapata.conf in
 here...if you have any ideas please send them my way...
