Hunt Group--Auto Attendant--Hunt Group Fails to get to Final Stage


DarkKnight

Recommended Posts

I'm using version 2.1.14.2498 (Linux) and 2.1.6.2450 (Win32), and have found a possible bug:

 

If you have a Hunt Group's final stage kick to a Auto-Attendant, and then choose a Direct Destination choice off that Auto-Attendant to direct you to a 2nd Hunt Group, the 2nd Hunt Group seems to work, except the call is disconnected before it reaches the Final Stage of the 2nd Hunt Group (in this case just a General VM box - i.e., an Extension with a Voicemail box but no phone registered on it). We have tried several ways around this, but get the same result on both versions.

 

Has anyone else experienced this? Any workaround for it?

 

Is there planning to be a patch made for it in version 3.0 or later?

 

 

Thanks in advance!

This sounds like you have reached the max number of redirects allowed.

 

This is a feature to stop run-away calls from looping and looping.

 

To fix this....

 

Stop the service

Go to the Working Directory of the PBX

Edit pbx.xml

Look for the XML setting max_loop

Change it to the required value

Start the service.

 

That should do it.

Hi Thank you for the tip but it did not work :( we are having the same issue here and we are desperate to resolve that, when there is a incommoding call redirect fine to the auto attendant ext 100, when you press any option given by the auto attendant, it does not redirect calls to the selected options, it is happening to all domains in the PBX, when I restart the PBXNSIP service, it settles for a while but the problem comes back again, any help would be appreciated !!!!

 

Thanks

That sounds like a DTMF problem to me. Do you see anything in the log (media, level 6) like "Received DTMF 2"?

Well, if you don't see any DTMF in the log, that means the PBX does not process any DTMF... Do you have the SIP INVITE packet that hits the PBX (coming from the trunk)? Maybe we can see something there. Or just send my a PM with the HTTP access and we'll log on to your system and do a test call to see what's wrong.

was there a fix?

 

im facing kinda same issue

i have the hunt group stage 1: 101 and 102 for 20 seconds

final stage: (800)555-1212

when someone calls into that office, the calls are on a hunt group for 20 seconds, then it goes to a autp attendant, then when they select an option from 1-0 it goes into another hunt group which works fine untill it has to get to the final stage, which i set stage 1 to be for 20 seconds then after 20 seconds the call just ends, it doesnt transfer to the extern number i entered inthe field for final stage

----My version had the "max_loop" default value set at 10, and I changed it to 15, and that has worked ever since, for even more complicated scenarios than what you described.

 

----Oh yeah, just so you know, in your scenario, you cannot put a external telephone number in at the final stage....it does not work that way. Instead, you have to put in an Extension number that has been set to have your external telephone number in the "Call Forward All Calls To:" field (under the Redirection tab) for that Extension you're using as the "Redirection Extension." Hope this helps.

i have a diff domains et up where it does transfer the call to the final stage even the final stage is a external number

 

i guess the issue is the looping prevention set to 10 or whatever the default is set to

the problem is i cant afford to reboot the service since there is contacntly ongoing calls on it

I am having the same issue. My customer wants a group with a final destination as an AA with the option to press 1 to ring another group or 2 to leave a message, when dialling 1 it rings the 2nd group which also has an AA as the final destination but the call is cut off after the ringing the 2nd group.
