Dialing from AGI script

General Help
1

I’d like to originate a call from my PHP script.

Is there any Dial command for that purpose? I don’t see any such command in the list of AGI commands.

OK! I found the EXEC command that could serve the purpose.

However, I am unable to execute my AGI script. Here is the CLI output

  1. If there are any leading spaces before the first two lines of the script make sure you remove them.

  2. make sure you use the correct php version (php or php5) in the first line of your script.
