[asterisk-users] Polycom not updating the directory list

[hin lee]

The <mac-addr>-directory.cfg  permission is 777 with a symoblic link pointing to 000000000000-directory.xml with permission of 644.  

I would manually edit the 000000000000-directory.xml and make the changes needed.  Upon rebooting the phone, the directory is still show the old contacts.  Somehow the phone did not pull the new contacts directory.  If I format the phone file system, then it will reflect the new contacts.

The very obvious thing to check is the permission of the <mac-addr>-directory.cfg.

Hi,

I have a strange problem with all of our Polycom 550 & 650 phones.  I am running a TFTP server on my Asterisk server and option 66 Boot Host pointing to Asterisk on my DHCP server.  The auto-provisioning is working because the phones are registering correctly with their extension.  If I change the MAC.cfg file to another extension and reboot the phone, it will reflect the new ext.  

The part that doesn't work is the <MAC>-directory.cfg.  If I make an update to this file and reboot the phones, they do not reflect the new directory list.  The only way I was able to get the phone to see the new directory list was to "Format" the phone.  Of course this is not the ideal way.  Also to add, the <MAC>-directory.cfg files point to 0000000000000-directory.xml.  This way I only have one file to maintain.

Anyone knows why it's not pull the new <MAC>-directory.cfg file.


Thank you!
