[asterisk-users] Read Timeout

[Dan Journo]

Hi Danny,

There seems to be a syntax error with your solution but i can't pin point it.

This is what happens when I hit "1".

   -- Executing [s at macro-screen:2] Read("SIP/magrathea-00001ec6", "ACCEPT|priv-instruct-custom|1") in new stack
    -- Accepting a maximum of 1 digits.
    -- <SIP/magrathea-00001ec6> Playing 'priv-instruct-custom' (language 'en')
    -- User entered '1'
[2010-04-20 15:46:59] WARNING[25723]: ast_expr2.fl:415 ast_yyerror: ast_yyerror():  syntax error: syntax error, unexpected '(', expecting $end; Input:

    -- Executing [s at macro-screen:6] Wait("SIP/magrathea-00001ec6", "0.1") in new stack

Thanks
Dan

Not necessarily the best way, but here's how I handle this type of thing in 1.4.X
macro-screen]
exten => s,1,Wait(0.2)
exten => s,n,Read(ACCEPT|priv-instruct-custom|1)
exten => s,n,GotoIf($[LEN(${ACCEPT})  <  1 ] ?no)
exten => s,n,GotoIf($[${ACCEPT} = 1 ] ?yes:no)
exten => s,n(no),Set(MACRO_RESULT=CONTINUE)
exten => s,n(yes),Wait(0.1)

Hello,

I use the following macro to screen calls when they come in.

Priv-instruct-custom says "press 1 to accept, press 2 to reject"

However, when no input is made (or the call goes to my mobile's voicemail and therefore no input is made), the result is that the ACCEPT variable is not set and then the GotoIf statement fails.

How can I resolve this? Can I simply preset the ACCEPT variable to 2, or will the read cmd override the ACCEPT variable with nothing if it times out?

[macro-screen]
exten => s,1,Wait(0.2)
exten => s,n,Read(ACCEPT|priv-instruct-custom|1)
exten => s,n,GotoIf($[${ACCEPT} = 1 ] ?yes:no)
exten => s,n(no),Set(MACRO_RESULT=CONTINUE)
exten => s,n(yes),Wait(0.1)

Many thanks
Dan
