Cant make/receive external calls

Asterisk Asterisk Support

Hi All,
I’m new to Asterisk and am having issues trying to make or receive external voip calls.

I was able to setup internal extensions, calls, etc fine, but I can’t seem to get external calls (both outgoing and incoming) working at all. (I have successfully registered with my SIP provider though, so no issues there)

When I try to make an outgoing call, it just cuts off strait away and the following line turns up in the log:

When I try to call in, the extensions ring (i have set up a call group), but as soon as I pick it up, the following turns up in the log:

Would anyone be able to shed some light on the situation at all?

Many thanks.

Aha, fixed it!

I had disabled all codecs except G.729A, since this was what my provider preferred.
After some research, it appears that G.729A coded is licenced, which led me to believe that it mustn’t be included in Asterisk.

To fix the problem, I simply disabled G.729A and enabled the following codecs (since they are also supported by my provider)

G.711 u-law G.711 A-law G.723.1

Hopefully this will help anyone else having this issue.

That doesn’t solve the parse errors, but you didn’t provide the dialplan that produced them.
