I had been having problems making external calls from my asterisk box. When I initially set it up, I used the asterisk-gui to setup a service provider for outgoing calls. This automatically appended the following context to extensions.conf
[numberplan-custom-1]
plancomment = Default DialPlan
include = default
include = parkedcalls
exten = _0XXXXX!,1,Macro(trunkdial,${trunk_1}/${EXTEN:0},${trunk_1_cid})
comment = _0XXXXX!,1,test,standard
However, since the default context for users is default, and the [default] context did not include this custom context, the calls weren’t being routed. This was giving the following error:
Call from '6000' to extension '08448160000' rejected because extension not found.
The simple way to fix it was to include the custom [numberplan-custom-1] context within the default context:
[default] ; ; By default we include the demo. In a production system, you ; probably don't want to have the demo there. ; include => demo include => numberplan-custom-1 exten => 1571,1,VoiceMailMain
Thanks. I ran into this problem also and your solution works.
Thank a lot. It works for me as well.
This is a working solution. Thanks and God bless.
This worked for me, Thanks for posting it. It still bugs me that It is not using the context I told it too though..
this did not work for me. I am setting this up in Nigeria. Are there any conf to modify for my country?
Thanks! Worked for me on a server that suddenly stopped accepting incoming calls for no apparent reason.
Many thanks, after a few hours searching your article was the one which fixed my vanilla installation of asterisk (had the extension defined under a macro, and this macro wasn’t defined under the default section).
cheers Adrian
Thanks Buddy. That solved my problem.
Cheers !!!
