[Asterisk-Users] problem with outgoing callsUnabletocreatechannel of type 'ZAP' (cause 34 - Circuit/channelcongestion)

[Michael Collins]

Nik,

Looks like you're making some progress.  When I first started using A at H
I had trouble getting the outbound dialing to work.  I wasn't sure where
to start, so what I did was skip the macros in the dial plan.  I wanted
to play around with exactly what digits the telco wanted to see.  So I
put a specific extension in my [default] context like this:

exten => 555,1,Dial(Zap/1/5595551212)

I chose a specific Zap channel and the exact digits that I wanted to
send to the telephone company.  This helped me figure out what to dial.

The other thing you can do is log on to the CLI and turn on PRI
debugging:

pri debug span 1

This will cause PRI debug messages to display on the console.  It might
take a while but you will learn to read those debug messages.  You can
also post them to the list and we'll help you to interpret them.

-MC

ok, with your configuration incoming calls works, but:

- i have eco (maybe i have to increase/decrease echotraining value?)
- outgoing calls doesn't works (

    -- Executing Dial("SIP/102-cc9b", "ZAP/g0/mynumber") in new stack
  == Everyone is busy/congested at this time (1:0/1/0)
    -- Executing Goto("SIP/102-cc9b", "s-CONGESTION|1") in new stack
    -- Goto (macro-dialout-trunk,s-CONGESTION,1)
    -- Executing NoOp("SIP/102-cc9b", "Dial failed due to CONGESTION")
in new stack
    -- Executing Macro("SIP/102-cc9b", "outisbusy") in new stack
    -- Executing Playback("SIP/102-cc9b", "all-circuits-busy-now") in
new stack

)
it seems that i don't have any channel for outbound
- ALARM is set on NOP

i've got a TE205P and my zaptel.conf is:

span=1,0,0,ccs,hdb3,crc4,yellow
span=2,0,0,ccs,hdb3,crc4,yellow

bchan = 1-15, 17-31
dchan = 16
bchan = 32-46,48-62
dchan = 47

loadzone        = it
defaultzone     = it
