¿how to configure chan_skypiax?

Wed, 2008-10-15 12:36 — opqa

I am trying to get the new chan_skypiax working, I have followed the complete installation guide. I also have the skype client installed and working, but I don't know how to instruct asterisk to connect to it. This is what I do:

From an X terminal:

sh-3.1$ skype & (it starts and auto-login as my user)
Asterisk Ready.
*CLI> set debug 10
Core debug was 0 and is now 10
*CLI> load chan_skypiax.so (I don't load it on startup to be alble to see the debug information)

Skype not configured on the 'current' console, not importing from Skype client!

And this is all, how should I configure the console to connect to the X skype client? Thanks in advance.

Forgot to add the line where

Forgot to add the line where I start asterisk, is in between the skype & and the Asterisk ready lines, and looks like this:

/usr/local/asterisk/usr/sbin/asterisk -c

This is all. Hoping for your answers.

Launch Skype before asterisk

You have to launch the skype client and have it logged into Skype (I mean, ready for you to make a Skype call with it) *before* to launch asterisk.

When you will launch asterisk, the skype client will ask your authorization to be used by asterisk-celliax.

Give it to it.

*then* proceed.

Please, write again here if this do not work, or if you find other problems.

But this is the way I do it

My previous steps are performed exactly in this conditions. I recieve no autorization request in skype window when I start asterisk, no matter If i load the chan_skypiax module at start-up or with the load command, as shown before. It does not detect the skype window.

I forgot to add...

that I am performing all this steps in a vncserver, not an standard X server. Can this be the problem? For the moment I have no direct access to this machine. If I use a Xvfb server the debugging messages on the asterisk window are exactly the same, but of course then I can not see whether skype client asks authorization or not.

missing skype=yes in skypiax.conf

I'm sooo sorry!

My fault, sorry for having wasted your time!

You have to add a line to the skypiax.conf config file you find in svn. Now I've fixed it in svn.

Please add a line like the following to the skypiax.conf file you are using:

skype=yes


Fri, 2008-10-17 14:55 — opqa

Now it works :D

No, please, don't apologize for waisting my time, you waist your time in making this great & useful piece of software. Thanks to you.

Ok, now it connects and I'm able to import contacts from the skype client. For the moment I can not test making calls, but I will investigate it in some days.

Another issue is that I've been unable to compile the separate module against the asterisk version on Debian Etch, maybe I'll also post about it later. Thanks for all again.

skypiax test call

to test chan_skypiax you can add a line like

exten => 777,1,Dial(Skypiax/skypeclient/echo123); please, dial 777 to call the Skype test sound machine

or you can use the celliax_stuff/newconfigs/extensions.conf instead of the extensions.conf you are using now.

I've fixed this too in svn, now.

Thanks a lot to take the time to let us know about this problems, you for sure spared lot of times and troubles to other users!

Let us know of how is going, and let's fix the bugs together ;-)

Error Compiling skypiax files

Hi there!

I've downloaded all files from skypiax_stuff and build directory to get the things done, but when i try to compile the files i get this error message!

[TrixServer.net build]# make clean
rm -f *.so *.o *.so.a
[TrixServer.net build]# make
gcc -DASTERISK_VERSION_1_4 -pipe -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -g3 -I/usr/src/asterisk/include -I. -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -march=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer -D'SKYPIAX_SVN_VERSION="exported"' -c -o chan_skypiax.o chan_skypiax.c
chan_skypiax.c:1: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘.’ token
chan_skypiax.c:1:23: warning: no newline at end of file
make: *** [chan_skypiax.o] Error 1

What can i do, some help?

-PD: i've downloaded the celliax files from this link here and compiled them without any problem, maybe is the way that i'm downloading the skypiax ones manually. There's some way to download a .tgz file format??

Regards!!

Please note that at the moment, celliax software is pre-beta, and
