Allocation failed in ARI (list recordings)

Asterisk Asterisk APIs
1

I have always Allocation failed error in ARI when folder have > 0 recordings.
Folder and files have 777 access.
No logs in CLI*.

http://192.168.0.123:8088/ari/recordings/stored?api_key=myuser:mypass
{
  "error": "Allocation failed"
}

Is this a bug?

What version of Asterisk is this, is there anything on the console? I just used http://ari.asterisk.org/ to do the same on my local running 13 and it worked fine.

3

Nothing in console.
Trying 14.4 and 14.5. Same result - “Allocation failed”

4

Looking at the code allocation failed will occur for just that, if memory allocation fails OR if the directory couldn’t be open. By default this directory is “/var/spool/asterisk/recording”. Does that exist with the proper permissions like you mentioned?

5

Yes. I applied chmod 0777 recording/ to folder.

When directory is empty, i receive empty list without errors:
[]

How are you placing recordings in it? Are you not using the record ARI functionality?

7

I am using channel record ARI.
http://192.168.0.123:8088/ari/channels/1497376820.1/record?name=test&format=wav&ifExists=fail&beep=true&terminateOn=any&api_key=myname:mypass
or format = ulaw.

Any idea?
Maybe problem in file system?

Trying to debug with strace:

[pid  5035] getdents(29, /* 3 entries */, 32768) = 80
[pid  5035] stat("/var/spool/asterisk/recording/test.wav", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0664, st_size=62124, ...}) = 0
[pid  5035] close(29)                   = 0
[pid  5035] write(18, "HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Err"..., 281) = 281
