[asterisk-users] Phones don't stop ringing when queue is answered

[Andrew Martin]

Hello,

I am running Asterisk 11 on CentOS 6.4 with about 150 local SIP clients on a
LAN. The SIP clients are a mixture of Yealink phones (e.g SIP-T32G, SIP-T42G,
etc). I have configured the system as follows:

sip.conf:
[169]
secret=111111
dtmfmode=rfc2833
directmedia=no
directrtpsetup=yes
canreinvite=no
context=main
host=dynamic
type=friend
port=5060
call-limit=5
nat=force_rport,comedia
callcounter=yes


queues.conf:
[queue_level_1]
musiconhold=default
music=default
strategy=ringall
joinempty=yes
timeout=18

member => SIP/178
member => SIP/146
member => SIP/169


extensions.conf:
[test-queue]
exten => s,1,WaitExten(2)
same => n,Queue(queue_level_1,rtnC,18)
same => n,Playback(transfer_exten)
same => n,WaitExten(2)
same => n,Queue(queue_level_1,rtnC,18)
same => n,Playback(user_unavail)
same => n,Voicemail(169 at myvm,s)
same => n,WaitExten(2)
same => n,Hangup()


This rings a group of phones for 18 seconds, and if no one answers it repeats
ringing that same group. If no one answers the second time, it goes to
voicemail.

I have noticed an intermittent problem where if the caller hangs up or a
particular phone, say 146, answers the call, the other phones in the queue will
continuing ringing for several seconds before realizing that the caller is no
longer in the queue. This is very problematic since users are then answering the
queue to find no one there. The log does not show anything amiss (calling from
265 into the queue):

  == Spawn extension (test-queue, s, 5) exited non-zero on 'SIP/265-00002931'

This only happens occassionally; most of the time the phones will all
immediately stop ringing once one of them picks up. Do you have any ideas about
what could be wrong here or what else I can do to debug?

Thanks,
