Finallly I got the Asterisk<\/a>+freeswitch<\/a> \u00a0in a single system up and running \u00a0with fusion pbx<\/a> as front end for freeswitch \u00a0and A2billin<\/a>g for Astersik .<\/p>\n

You may wonder why we needed this complicated \u00a0single box all-in one setup . I wanted to use this setup for our office internal PBX \u00a0 as well as integrating DID number purchase panel and for international calls.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I have got few issues while configuring \u00a0this system .<\/p>\n

Issue 1 :<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After installing freepbx and asterisk on teh same system i wanted to change\u00a0free switch\u00a0sip port from 5060 to any other port \u00a0as asterisk is already using the port 5060 .<\/p>\n

So i edited the file vars.xml<\/p>\n

# vi \/usr\/local\/freeswitch\/conf\/vars.xml<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Issue2:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Just after installing a2billing , i renamed the default web directory \u00a0\/var\/www\/html\/a2billing \u00a0to something else \u00a0and \u00a0it caused the extensions\/pins i created not registering and I could not reload asterisk from a2billing interface .<\/p>\n

I\u00a0realized\u00a0that this is \u00a0because of missing short link for\u00a0\/var\/lib\/asterisk\/agi-bin\/lib -> \/var\/www\/html\/renamed\/common\/lib<\/p>\n

# cd\u00a0\/var\/lib\/asterisk\/agi-bin<\/p>\n

#ln -s \/var\/www\/html\/a2billing\/common\/lib \u00a0lib<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0Issue 3:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

I wanted a2billing take care of asterisk configuration files and not to restart\u00a0asterisk\u00a0manually\u00a0when\u00a0there is a change ,<\/p>\n

for this i turn of \u00a0“Asterisk\u00a0real time” in system settings –>global list —>global<\/p>\n

use_realtime=NO<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Issue4:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every-time I place a outbound call , a2billing plays the audio saying ” enter the number you wish to dial and press the pound key”. I dont want this but \u00a0place the calls directly .<\/p>\n

under systemsettings–>Global list –> Agi-conf1 \u00a0, I\u00a0changed\u00a0below values to ‘NO’<\/p>\n

play_audio=no<\/p>\n

say_timetocall =no
\nsay_balance_after_auth=no
\nsay_balance_after_call=no
\nsay_rateinitial=no<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Issue 5:<\/strong><\/p>\n

By enabling debug level =4 \u00a0in agi-conf , I understood why my outbound calls are not connecting .<\/p>\n

by disabling caller id authentication in agi-conf, \u00a0i made it work finally .<\/p>\n

cid_enable = NO<\/p>\n

below is the log from a2billing log files<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

#tail -f \u00a0\/var\/log\/a2billing\/a2billing_agi.log<\/p>\n
