We recently had an issue with outbound faxes failing. We tracked the issue down to using “*393
” in the Global Prefix. It seems the dialplan is now having an issue with the “*
”. We removed the * and changed our global prefix to just “393” we also updated our outbound routes to match.
Asterisk: 13.23.1
FaxPro: 13.0.42
We get this error in Asterisk:
NOTICE[2773] core_local.c: No such extension/context *393XXXXXXXXXX@special-fax-context while calling Local channel
The context uses _X which seems to not recognize the *
[special-fax-context]

;–== end of [special-fax-context] ==–;
Has there been a change in the FreePBX dialplan or Asterisk that has broken this?
