I am new to asterisk and I’m setting up a test box to flesh out a
switchover we’re going to do at work. Right now I’m working on
voicemail. I can leave a message fine, but when I attempt to listen to
messages, I am having trouble. I can dial an extension for voice mail
main, login, and it’ll tell me how many messages I have. I press one
and it will give me the date/time for the message but when playback
would normally start, VMMain hangs up.
The message in the * console is: (removed sound playback lines)
Parsing ‘/var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/105/Old/msg0000.txt’: Found
(playback some sound files)
== Spawn extension (internal, 500, 1) exited non-zero on ‘SIP/joseph-0e7f’
At this point it hangs up on me. I’m using X-Lite softphone for
testing (can’t buy any phones till we’re sure we have it all working
right 
) Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give. I’m using the latest Asterisk downloaded from the main site, compiled from source, running on Mac OS 10.4.5 (Client, not server) I’ll
include the appropriate config stuff below as well:
