  Hi Guys.



  I've had a lay off from Asterisk for 12 months but I am starting to look
into it again. I am not very Linux savvy and found it hard going the last
time. I've started playing with it in the last 3 weeks and I have to admit
to making more head way this time.



  The first problem I'm stuck on and I cant find a solution to is that sound
files that I have recorded (be it by creating a temp file from an extension
number, or by recording in .wav) will not play when I try to create a menu
in the extension.conf



  The relevant lines are:



  exten => s,1,Wait,2

  exten => s,2,Answer

  exten => s,3,Background(mainmenu)



  The mainmenu.gsm is sitting in the sounds folder.



  I get an error on the console saying:



      -- Executing Wait("SIP/timg-a4e6", "2") in new stack

      -- Executing Answer("SIP/timg-a4e6", "") in new stack

      -- Executing BackGround("SIP/timg-a4e6", "mainmenu") in new stack

  Jun 11 12:33:00 WARNING[1209214400]: file.c:464 ast_openstream:  File
mainmenu d

  oes not exist in any format

  Jun 11 12:33:00 WARNING[1209214400]: file.c:752 ast_streamfile:  Unable to
open

  mainmenu (format ULAW): No such file or directory

    == Spawn extension (default, s, 3) exited non-zero on 'SIP/timg-a4e6'



  What am I doing wrong guys???



  Cheers



  Tim
