<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">I have an Asterisk 13 that only processes app Transfer with PJSIP, to the tune of 60 per second. No voice calls.<br>
After like 2 hours, I can no longer get into Asterisk. This command,
asterisk -r, fails, and also "asterisk -rx core show channels", etc. I
am returned to the bash prompt. I checked the handles and
<p>lsof | grep asterisk |wc -l<br>
7098126</p>
<p>I think there is a kind of handle leak here. Nothing else runs in the box<br>
If there is a way to find out what happens, let me know. The dialplan is
confidential, for it belongs to my customer,but I can give you access
to the box.<br>
In short , the app receives a call, checks the number against a database and calls app_transfer. That is it.</p>
<p>This is what I see when the command fails:</p>
<p>asterisk -r<br>

but in fact I am using PJSIP.</p>
<p>It is definitely PJSIP, for I replaced the dialplan with plain SIP, and there is no issue, ceteris paribus.</p><p>Note: I am not a developer and have no idea how to troubleshoot this. </p><p><br></p></div></div>
