[asterisk-users] Problem with asterisk-perl-0.08 and Asterisk >= 1.2.20

[Benoît Mérouze]

Hello,

I've been using for a long time asterisk-perl-0.08 for prepaid card
applications, and I've identified a problem with the last releases of
asterisk-1.2, installed with Trixbox.

The command get_variable() raises a signal SIGPIPE when it is called
(whatever the variable to get).
I made tests with Asterisk 1.2.20, 1.2.21 and 1.2.22, and I noticed
the same issue.
But I've never noticed that with Asterisk 1.2.14 that I've installed
on many customers' servers, and I've got also another customer's
server with Asterisk 1.2.18 that works well.

Is there any reason this can be fixed in the asterisk-perl-0.10 (not
yet included in Trixbox)?
Or is this more an issue from Asterisk (since Asterisk 1.2.19 or 1.2.20)?

If that can help, I'm calling my Perl AGI using the Asterisk command
DeadAGI().
And I've tested get_variable to get the variables DIALSTATUS and
ANSWEREDTIME (very need to bill calls!).

Regards,
Benoit Merouze
