HELLO & WELCOME

[WelshPaul]

As mentioned elsewhere I have FreePBX running on an Raspberry pi. (RasPBX)

I have several trunks registered, Voipfone, Voicehost and Sipgate to name a few. I have had issues with the Voipfone trunk where everything appears to work ok for a few days then out of nowhere inbound calls fail. The caller will hear one ring then the engaged tone. :-/

I have setup the following script to run as a cron job every minute - it will watch for the failure and reload asterisk to resolve it. Just follow the instructions! :P

Type:

Code: Select all

nano /home/pi/scripts/asterisk-reload-watchdog.sh

Copy and paste into above:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

asterisk -rx "sip show registry" | grep -q "No Authentication"

if [ $? == 0 ]; then
  amportal a r
fi

Now press CTRL X then Y to save the and exit the file.

Next we need to set the permissions of the file we just created, to do this type:

Code: Select all

chmod +x /home/pi/scripts/asterisk-reload-watchdog.sh

Now that we have our script we just need to setup a cronjob to run it every 60 seconds. To do this type:

Code: Select all

sudo crontab -e

Copy and paste into above:

Code: Select all

*/1 * * * * /usr/bin/sudo /home/pi/scripts/asterisk-reload-watchdog.sh >> /home/pi/scripts/asterisk-reload-watchdog.log

Now press CTRL X then Y to save the and exit the file.

For anyone running Asterisk use the following:

Type:

Code: Select all

nano /root/scripts/asterisk-reload-watchdog.sh

Copy and paste into above:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "sip show registry" | grep -q "No Authentication"

if [ $? == 0 ]; then
  /etc/init.d/asterisk reload
fi

Now press CTRL X then Y to save the and exit the file.

Next we need to set the permissions of the file we just created, to do this type:

Code: Select all

chmod +x /root/scripts/asterisk-reload-watchdog.sh

Now that we have our script we just need to setup a cronjob to run it every 60 seconds. To do this type:

Code: Select all

env EDITOR=nano crontab -e

Copy and paste into above:

Code: Select all

*/1 * * * * /root/scripts/asterisk-reload-watchdog.sh >> /root/scripts/asterisk-reload-watchdog.log

Now press CTRL X then Y to save the and exit the file.

I've also been experiencing 'No Authentication' with voipfone more and more often this year. I also have another trunk draytel and another non credential (ip authenticated) trunk on the same freepbx server without issues.

I will try your script!
