I have played with it. But the problem I'm having is as follows
exten => _1800.,1,Dial(Zap/4/${EXTEN},20,Tr) ; call some company
willing to pay for my test, preferably get someone with an on hold message
; Now I press #* on the analog phone to transfer them to Meetme
exten => *,1,Meetme,2000 ; send
them to meetme
exten => *,2,Flash() ;
flash the pstn line
At this point they are moved to meetme and the pstn line is flashed.
I am disconnected and don't get a dialtone, I get a busy tone.
So I physically hang up the phone and then attempt to call another 1800
number ....
When I do this the cli displays a notice:
Unable to create channel of type 'Zap' == Everyone is busy/congested at
this time
It is possible for me to join the meetme by dialing 2000 but I can't appear
to access the pstn line that I flashed
What I don't understand is that there are settings in zapata.conf for
threewaycalling, transfer, etc... but it doesn't seem to work and I wonder
what these settings do? But more importantly is there a way to solve my
problem?
