FOP2 stops updating on queue call..

[dogatemycomputer]

We are running Asterisk 1.8.3.3 with whitelabel FOP2 2.2 on CentOS 5. I am trying to understand what is happening here.

WHAT WORKS:
If we dial the queue internally (for example.. dial 1000600.. it rings all the phones and the FOP2 continues to update perfectly).

WHAT BREAKS:
If we dial a queue from an IVR the FOP2 stops updating the agent information until we restart it. We can still..

• add and remove agents from the queue
• can see queue updates such as how many callers are waiting and their information
• receive call audio alerts for callers entering/leaving the queue

.. but from that point forward the agents will be listed as "inactive" or "restricted" and the FOP2 stops responding. In some cases all the queue extensions will continue to show a "ringing" symbol long after the call is answered. This happens from Firefox on linux, IE and Firefox on Windows.

Here is a partial log below. I am not sure how much logging I should post but everything looks normal until the error below. I would guess this could be an Asterisk issue but even so why doesn't the FOP reconnect and update all the extensions automatically without restarting the service? If anyone has a suggestion I would appreciate it.

Your manager is disconnecting the fop2 server connection, try to increase writetimeout in /etc/asterisk/manager.conf

If you have a really busy manager, you might want to enable the event_mask to reduce the noise... all the "Reporting" manager events are not needed by fop2 and they add up quite a lot..
