[asterisk-users] broken pipe in perl agi

[Elliot Otchet]

Scratch that - my bad.  I had a modified version responding.

Nothing like starting a Friday off on the wrong foot.  At least it is happy hour somewhere.

FYI - It works fine under perl 5.8.8 on RHEL5.2 w/ Asterisk 1.4.24.1

You might want to check your perl modules to see if they're up to date.

Regards,

Elliot

You're on the right track, Steve but that didn't do it either.  Here is the
Perl snippet:
use strict;
use warnings;
my $towatch = $ARGV[0];
my $a=0;
my $retval=undef;
# show hints will get hint information from the dialplan
while ($a<1) {
   my $cmda = '/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "core show hints"|';
   ####  Get Trunk Information ####
   my %lines;
   my $lineseq=0;
   $SIG{'PIPE'} = 'IGNORE';
   open (my $trunk_info,$cmda) or print STDOUT "Broken pipe\n";
   if ($trunk_info) {
      while (<$trunk_info>) {
         if ($_ =~ /internal/) {
            if ($_ =~ /$towatch/) {
               $lines{$lineseq} = $_;
               $lineseq++;
               }
            }
         }
      close $trunk_info;
      }
   sleep 2;

   for (my $i=0;$i<=$lineseq;$i++) {
      if ($lines{$i}) {
         my $c = unpack("x74 a16", $lines{$i});
         $c =~ s/\s//gx;
         $retval=1;
         print STDOUT "SET VARIABLE LINESTAT \"$c\" \r\n";
         <STDIN>;
         }
      }
   $a++;
   }
# if /var/run/asterisk.ctl is not mod 777, no result so we return a dummy
Idle
if (! $retval) {
   my $c = "Idle";
   print STDOUT "SET VARIABLE LINESTAT \"$c\" \r\n";
   <STDIN>;
   }
exit;

If there is an active call on the extension, it works.  If not, the "broken
pipe" message is returned.

I'm guessing you're not reading the last "200 result=1" before exiting or
closing the pipe.

Thanks in advance,
