AMI doesn't execute command

Asterisk Asterisk Support

Hello,

I have problem with my AMI command from Perl script.
I am able to login and logoff but no command is executed.

Asterisk 14.3.0
CentOS Linux 7

#!/usr/bin/perl

use IO::Socket::INET;

sub asterisk_command ()
{
#    my $command=$_[0];
    my $ami=IO::Socket::INET->new(PeerAddr=>'10.8.34.40',PeerPort=>5038,Proto=>'tcp') or die "failed to connect to AMI!";

        print $ami "Action: Login\r\nUsername: test\r\nSecret: 12345678\r\n\r\n";
        print $ami "Action: Originate\r\nChannel: SIP/test/200\r\nContext: phones\r\nExten: 200\r\nPriority: 1\r\n\r\n";
        print $ami "Action: Logoff\r\n\r\n";

}

#asterisk_command ("Action: Originate\r\nChannel: SIP/test/200\r\nContext: phones\r\nExten: 200\r\nPriority: 1\r\n");
asterisk_command ();

[test]
secret=12345678
deny=0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
permit=10.8.34.40/255.255.255.0
read=all
write=all

== Manager ‘test’ logged on from 10.8.34.40
== Manager ‘test’ logged off from 10.8.34.40

When I use this via Telnet I have no problem:

telnet 10.8.34.40 5038

Action: Login
Username: test
Secret: 12345678

Action: Originate
Channel: SIP/test/200
Context: phones
Exten: 200
Priority: 1

  == Spawn extension (phones, 200, 3) exited non-zero on 'SIP/test-00000007'

Could you please give me some advice what I have done wrong?

I have also tried this:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Asterisk::AMI;
$astman = Asterisk::AMI->new(PeerAddr => '10.8.34.40',
                                PeerPort => '5038',
                                Username => 'test',
                                Secret => '12345678'
                        );
 
die "Unable to connect to asterisk" unless ($astman);

print $astman;
 
my $action = $astman->({ Action => 'Command',
                      Command => 'sip show peers'
                    });

$astman->send_action(\%action);

Same problem.

Thank you for your help.

Solution:

I have to added sleep(1) before my logoff:

sleep(1);
print $ami "Action: Logoff\r\n\r\n";
2

Calling a number that is engaged.

Sorry I have no clue what you have meant.

4

The phone that you have called is busy.

AMI is executing the call, but the called device is rejecting the call with a status code that indicates that the person called busy.

5

Now I see. This is because I have not accept this call.

The problem is that my AMI command from Perl script is not executed.

My steps:

  1. Test telnet connection - OK
  2. Test “action” via telnet - OK
  3. Test Perl script Login/Logout - OK
  4. Test Perl script execute “action” - PROBLEM
6

Please provide a log demonstrating the failure case.

I hope that all is in my initial post.

  • Perl script
  • log from Asterisk CLI (only manager login\logout)
  • my test from telnet session

It doesn’t have a gray background. You need to realise that people skim postings for relevant information. In particular, if there is anything wrong in the more obvious log, people are not going to look beyond that.

In that case, there is not enough logging to see what is going wrong.

The first one will get a broken pipe , possibly as early as the response to the login.

I’m not sufficiently familiar with the class library to know what it waits for, but it may well get a broken pipe whilst processing the command.

You should read all the responses before falling off the end of the script.

It means, that you dont know why my commands are not executed in manager CLI.
You just think that problem is in broken pipe - what means my IO::Socket::INET connection is broken.
I think that this is not the problem because I have tested it :

I have tried two things:

  1. Telnet connection and whole AMI command
  • it works

AMI command:

Action: Login
Username: test
Secret: 12345678

Action: Command
Command: sip reload

Action: Logoff

AMI execution:

Perl scrip execution without error:

[root@asterisk perl]# ./asterisk_AMI_login.pl
[root@asterisk perl]#

@david551 : Thank you for your advice how to write posts. This is mine first one and I have tried my best. The problem is that I dont get log from my AMI script if command failed or what so ever. I have written all information what I can see. If you need more, just tell me what and I will try to provide it.

10

The connection is broken when the script exits. The script is exiting before all the responses have been received.

11

@david551 Thanks now it works fine .-)

I have to added sleep(1) before my logoff:

sleep(1);
print $ami "Action: Logoff\r\n\r\n";

Now I can move on.
