grandcentral+gizmo project settings pbx-in-a-flash?

[lopaka]

I have set up and used this on 2 earlier nerdvittles boxes, but the most recent one (pbif 1.4) doesn't seem to work and I'd like some input on what I need to change. Below is the recommended script

<start>
[custom-gc-did]
exten => 1,1,answer
exten => 1,n,wait(2)
exten => 1,n,SendDTMF(1)
exten => 1,n,Goto(ext-group,2,1) ;use a setup ring group or extension

Then go to FreePBX - setup - Inbound Routes - and set up or edit your Gizmo Project DID. In the - set destination - section set - Custom App: - to - custom-gc-did,1,1 -.

Then setup your ring group or extension.
<end>

I need this so my stepdaughters friends can call her through grandcentral and not tie up my hardline, and I can't spare any funds for a real DID right now.

In pbx-in-a-flash, what should be changed if anything considering I want the call to go to extension 1000 or ring group 1?

Misc Destination?

Thanks for tips...

I would do this:

[custom-gc-did]
exten => _x.,1,answer
exten => _x.,n,wait(2)
exten => _x.,n,SendDTMF(1)
exten => _x.,n,Goto(from-internal,${EXTEN},1) ;use a setup ring group or extension

Now when you call it from your custom inbound route, call it like this:

custom-gc-did,1000,1

You can now change the 1000 to any extension or ring group you want.

Since this is not working, you might want to watch the CLI while receiving a call and see where it is failing.

HTH,

In inbound route, where do I call this "1000,1" in PIAF? I think my problem may be incorrectly setting up "misc destination". I may need a walkthrough.

Strangely enough this all seemed easier on a standard asterisk box with amp

I think the problem is that I have no selection for custom apps. Apparently the freepbx upgrade wiped that out and I'm not exactly sure how to fix it. Help?

grandcentral no selection for custom apps

I think the problem is that I have no selection for custom apps. Apparently the freepbx upgrade wiped that out and I'm not exactly sure how to fix it. Help?

I am in agreement with you lopaka. I can not configure the GrandCentral press1 bypass either due to FreePBX in PIAF not having the selection for custom apps. I do not want to fiddle with the config files 'cause the sql database will just override the changes.

Please, if anyone has a workaround it would be much appreciated.

In FreePBX create a 'Custom Destination', you'll find it under the Tools tab.
You call code that you write in extensions_custom.conf. You call it by putting 'custom-gc-did,1000,1' (as per sample code posted previously) in the Custom Destination box. Give it a meaningful name.

Then go to Setup -> Inbound Routes, create your route then select the Custom Applications radio button in the Set Destination section (at the bottom of the page) and select the name of your new Custom Destination from the drop down.

Don't forget to click the red bar and reload asterisk and then test your code.
I have this working for a large number of destinations.

I hope this hasn't confused you more.
Good Luck... Dallas

So I tried following this, the inbound call fails. I try to go and view the custom destination, I get this...

FATAL ERROR

SELECT keyword, data FROM parkinglot WHERE keyword = 'goto' AND data in (''custom-gc-did,5901,1') [nativecode=1064 ** You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'custom-gc-did,5901,1')' at line 1]SQL -
SELECT keyword, data FROM parkinglot WHERE keyword = 'goto' AND data in (''custom-gc-did,5901,1')


I can't even delete it to start over. Does anyone have an idea?

Thanks,
Mike

In 'Custom Destination' just put 'custom-gc-did,1,1' but give it a description. Choose that same description for that gizmo number in 'Inbound Routes'.

Edit:
This is assuming you use the original "custom-gc-did" that worked before the upgrade. This was originally worked out on BBR last August before FreePBX had "Custom Destination." Several boards linked to it. Let me know how it works and I'll add instructions to the original thread.
