[asterisk-users] Possible Bug (Include ${HANGUPCAUSE} in CDR)

[Bryant Zimmerman]

No this is just a snip of the much larger code.
The "h" extension is runing but no values port dial function aer being written. If I do a Set(CDR(field)=Value) before the dial
The value is stored.  See my other response for a larger snip of code.

Is the CDR line your only h line? I ask because if you only have one
priority for h then you MUST have: 

exten => h,1,Set(CDR(cause_code)=${HANGUPCAUSE})

This is because the dialplan will not use n for the first priority and
thus will never run.
