Log in to the CLI (if not on your main system, use 'asterisk -vvvvvr') and
watch for the incoming call.

If you want to do DID's you may have to put 'immediate=no' and
'overlapdial=yes' in the zap channel definition (zapata.conf) to ensure
that it waits to receive the DID info and put it in the appropriate
variable.

Do not forget to restart after changing zapata.conf. An 'asterisk -rx
reload' does NOT reload zapata conf!

Once it works, you should see something like this in the CLI:
    -- Extension '0793429193' in context 'from-pstn' from '0174287114'
does not exist.  Rejecting call on channel 0/1, span 1

After that all you need to do is define an incoming extension with the
correct DID data, like:
[ext-did]
exten => 0123456788,1,SetVar(FROM_DID=0123456788)       ;
exten => 0123456788,2,Goto(ext-local,200,1)     ;
exten => 0123456789,1,SetVar(FROM_DID=0123456789)       ;
exten => 0123456789,2,Goto(aa_1,s,1)    ;

HTH!
