[asterisk-users] PRI congestion instead of busy

Wed Jul 9 12:59:42 CDT 2014

I tried changing the dialplan to use Hangup(17) instead of Playback/Busy.  Now instead of ringing for 20 seconds and then getting the "all circuits are busy now", I get "all circuits are busy now" immediately.

It seems that now the PRI cause isn't getting set at all.

If you use Playtones you should put an Answer and a Wait(1) before the Playtones

I recommend using the Hangup app instead.   Busy would be Hangup(17).

Subject: [asterisk-users] PRI congestion instead of busy

I have two servers, each connected to the PTSN via PRI.  When I call from site A (951-999-9999) to site B (555-1212) and the phone at site B is on the phone, I hear the normal ring tone for about 20 seconds, then the message "all circuits are busy now.  please try your call again latter" followed by the congestion tone.  Instead, I want this to busy ring and then hang up without any message.

Here is a snippet from site A:

...

My hunch is that the PRI cause is never set, so site A gets the generic cause 16 (normal call clearing) instead of 17 (user busy).  I suspect this is causing site A to get the "all circuits are busy now" message instead of a busy signal.  I thought calling Busy() would cause the PRI cause to get set when used on a channel that is PRI?  Should this be manually set instead?

Site B details:
Asterisk version 11.10.2
Libpri version: 1.4.12
DAHDI version: 2.9.0.1
Freepbx version: 2.11.0.37, distro version 5.211.65-14
