[asterisk-users] Centrale FastAgi server down

[Steve Totaro]

Simpler solution.

What version of Asterisk.  1.2.x you had to enable (patch for) N+101, seems
later versions are more graceful.

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+FastAGI
Error Handling+Asterisk 1.4 & 1.6.x As of Asterisk 1.4 a new channel
variable, AGISTATUS, is set to SUCCESS upon successful execution of an AGI.
If there was a problem connecting to the FastAGI service, the channel
variable is set to FAILURE, allowing the dialplan to perform alternate steps
as not to interrupt the call flow. If the calling channel hangs up during
execution of the AGI, AGISTATUS is set to HANGUP.

Asterisk 1.2 Under Asterisk 1.2, if a request to a FastAGI service failed
for any reason, the channel is hung up. There is a
patch<http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=4029>that addresses this
problem by having Asterisk look for an n+101 priority in
the event of a FastAGI failure, but this code is not included in Asterisk by
default.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro
