[asterisk-users] SoftHangup on asterisk 1.8.2.3

[Jeremy Kister]

I am trying to use SoftHangup in my dialplan, but it's either not 
working or I'm not using it correctly.

when i'm on the console, i see:
pbx1*CLI> core show channels
Channel           Location          State Application(Data)
SIP/vgw1-000000a2 2156181505 at inbound:1 Up AppDial((Outgoing Line))
SIP/143-0000009f  s at macro-SaferSIPDial Up Dial(SIP/99302156181505 at vgw1,,
2 active channels
1 active call
194 calls processed
pbx1*CLI>


in my dialplan, i have:
exten => s,1,Set(CHAN=${SHELL(asterisk -rx "core show channels" |  awk 
'/^SIP\/vgw1-/ { print $1 }' | head -1)})
exten => s,n,SoftHangup(${CHAN})
exten => s,n,Wait(2)



When I dial the extension to invoke the above dialplan code, the console 
shows:
     -- Executing [s at nineoneone:10] SoftHangup("SIP/111-000000a3", 
"SIP/vgw1-000000a2") in new stack

but the SIP/vgw1-000000a2 is still active.  If I use 'channel request 
hangup SIP/vgw1-000000a2', the call is dropped instantly.

Am I using SoftHangup incorrectly?
