NO JOY Can't call paging group

[bazzacad]

Great idea. It says install available locally. Is there way I can re-download it online?

 

[bazzacad]

Nope that didn't work either. ;-(
But thanks for the suggestion.

 

[TriStarGod]

Are all the phones you are trying to page Yealink phones?

 

[bazzacad]

Yes and all the same model.

 

[TriStarGod]

To test if its a Yealink specific issue, try to page an extension that isn't a Yealink phone.

 

[rossiv]

If the call isn't making it to the page group it shouldn't matter what kind of phone. I would say differently if the call went through but the phones didn't auto answer.

 

[bazzacad]

Yes rossiv is correct the call isn't getting passed the page group. I also tried adding our non-Yealink overhead loud speaker to the group & got the same thing, but I can call the speaker just fine.

 

[rossiv]

lgaetz I see the "Probation Passed...." message on my box too for most if not all calls. I am really clueless why it's not working - but I agree - I think trying a different extension would be something good to try.

 

[bazzacad]

OK here are the logs with different extinctions. I tired 700 & 201 calling from 224.
When I switched the extension in the page group it generated a lot of info in the log, I've saved this as a .txt file as it was to big to screen shot. There where some errors & warning in it so maybe it has something to do with this issue.

 

[rossiv]

Well, there's no call in the TXT that I saw - just Asterisk reloading. BUT what I did see was the page group (700) was in deed created and recognized by Asterisk.

    -- Including context 'app-page-stream-custom' in context 'app-page-stream'

Perhaps another call that doesn't happen immediately after the reload to 700?

 

[bazzacad]

Thanks for not giving up on me. ;-)
I started the log, then changed the page group to 701, then waited a min. or so, then called 701.

 

[rossiv]

Color me clueless. For giggles, try this. Go into FreePBX and create a Misc Application pointing to the Page Group like the image below except replacing the group with yours of course.

 

[bazzacad]

OMG that actually works, WTF!!!
But now my notifications say Bad Destination....

 

[rossiv]

I couldn't hazard a guess why, but it's working so I wouldn't question it. Again - still colored confused, but glad it finally worked for you. Ignore the bad destination.
