Title: Silentra Conference rooms not working??
Post by: pmacdona on October 03, 2006, 04:17:36 PM

Have tried a couple of installs of Silentra, when dialling the conference room numbers we get a message "That is not a valid conference number", anybody  solved this???

"That is not a valid conference number"

Conference rooms need a timing source. Asterisk naturally uses any installed Digium card to provide its timing.  We're guessing you don't have a digium card fitted to your system.  Digium provides ztdummy to provide timing when you don't have any cards fitted. Stop asterisk and do...

Code: [Select]

modprobe ztdummy

Start asterisk and your conference rooms will work. To make it stick go into the PCI cards panel and do a modprobe.  Sail will detect that there are no cards and modify itself to load ztdummy upon each start-up.

Kind Regards

Tried that, ztdummy not found, also tried pci probe - I get an error "Timed out on UDEV - It may work if you retry..."

Then something is not quite right with your installation of asterisk.  Loading ztdummy WILL cure your problem.  Can you modprobe zaptel? If it fails with not found then please post the output from the following three commands...

uname -r
cat /etc/modprobe.conf  
rpm -qa smeserver-aster*

Thanks

Hi Selintra,

I have been watching this thread as I don't have any cards either, so I just did your second part

This worked for me I got this message

Thanks again for your help and fanastic work on this contrib.
