Since I saw a couple of good changes/features in Asterisk new version 1.6 here:
http://www.syednetworks.com/asterisk-1-6-features

And I upgraded to new version but I faced two different issues:

1. Since i’m using Digium telephony card TDM410 FXO, so after installation I tried to check zap status with “zap” commands on CLI but unfortunately i couldn’t get chan_zap.so module? what package provides me this?

2. My second problem is my zaptel hardwares are dropping some warnings for echo cancellation. I guess new version doesn’t support echo cancellation or what?
please someone guide me with this. Thanks

The issue lies in the openais code. It tries to allocate over 1 MB of memory on the stack, while Asterisk creates threads with a much smaller stack size than that. So, it blows up. I submitted a patch to fix this a long time ago:

https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/openais/2007-August/009257.html

However, none of the releases listed in the “stable” section on openais.org include this fix. So, you’ll have to run a newer version.

I have configured asterisk and openais (../doc/distributed_devstate.txt).

Nguyen,

Thanks for the comment. This functionality has actually been merged into Asterisk trunk, and will be released in Asterisk 1.6.1. So, instead of testing this branch, I would test 1.6.1. Check it out here:

$ svn co http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/branches/1.6.1 asterisk-1.6.1

I will update the post with this information.

Thanks!

[...] making that possible is something that I have worked on a bit here and there. I previously made a post asking for some of that code to be tested. Now, this code has been merged in to Asterisk [...]
