[asterisk-users] dial_exec_full problems with TDM400 - getting critical.

[Jason Morgan]

Hi,

I thought you'd cracked it, I simply turned off all sip by removing the
sip.conf
but after a few more days it did the same.

I've set logging permanently on again.

Any other suggestions?

Cheers,
Jason.

Have you got any extensions defined that aren't physically connected to
anything?

I replaced an ancient Asterisk version with a bang-up-to-date 1.6 version I
built myself, and was getting similar symptoms to what you describe.  It
seemed not to be freeing up channels it was trying to associate with
non-existent devices.

I made sure that every entry in sip.conf had a corresponding phone plugged
in
somewhere, then went through the dialplan and removed all references to
anything that wasn't mentioned in sip.conf.  (And there were a few.)  It
seems to have stayed up since then .....
