Automatic redial if a called extension of the same FPBX is busy

Hi,
a customer asked me for a feature, he’d like to activate a feature that advice him when a busy called extension return ready. If simplest we can even do something that automatically recall the extension when ready.

In the past there was the camp-on module but it is now deprecated so, what kind of solution is appliable ??

The system is a PBXact
PBX Version: 15.0.37.4
PBX Distro: 12.7.8-2011-5.sng7
Asterisk Version: 16.13.0

Some tips from the community ??

Thanks a lot
Enrico

you could still install/use the camp-on module. It may need a little work. It just isn’t maintained but it may still be the best route.

Hi James,
first of all thanks for your answer, I remember to have already tryed it but without luck, do you know some tricks to let it run smoothly ? I can surely try again !!

I never used it but IIRC the reason it was dropped was because it was generally inconsistent and not heavily used. That doesn’t mean it isn’t the “best” solution because I am unaware of an alternative. I don’t honestly know enough about it to give good answers.

Thanks anyway, your message is a why to do another effort !!

It was removed from asterisk when they moved to pjsip so someone would need to add support into pjsip for this to work. @jcolp would know best where this stands. When I left the project 5 years ago it was waiting on enough demand to invest the work.

Good day Tony, thanks for your answer, searching on google I’ve fount that was the cause but, I still use SIP so I suppose that I can make a try. The problem is to found the module, all the known repository aren’t available anymore, do you know where to find it or how to install from github ??

Thanks again
Enrico

The SIP protocol specific method has not been added to PJSIP as noone has asked for it, or implemented it.

Hi Joshua, thanks, do you know where can I find the module so to download and install it to try ?? I ask for it cause all the known repository are unaivalable.

Thanks
Enrico

Hi James,
I’ve found the project on github and you’re on of the developer, great job !!! I’m a newbi on github, how can I do to create a package and try to install it on our PBXact ??

Thanks a lot
Enrico
