Issue with appending an extension number to feature code

Posted by ci_newman on Tue, 02/23/2010

Hi all,

I seem to be having problems with appending an extension number to the end of a feature code. In this example, I am using a feature code *90 to call the tl-directed-call-pickup script. When dialling *90100 from my extension, I would expect that I should answer any calls currently ringing extension 100.

This isn't working at the moment as Asterisk is not seeing *90100 as a call to feature code *90, it is seeing it as a independent extension / feature code. As a result, I get an "invalid extension" error message.

I'm clearly missing something with the set-up of the feature code but I am unsure on what this is. The tl-directed-call-pickup script has been tested separately and is working fine. We're running on Asterisk 1.4.18 with PBX Manager 6.0.1.74.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Chris

That hasn't worked unfortunately. Asterisk is still seeing *90100 as a invalid extension.
