don't show status DAHDI after upgrade to Asterisk 1.8

[RekGRpth]

Sorry for upping this theme, but I have trouble with status of extensions on DAHDI.

I set up much extensions in elastix as DAHDI devices, such as "DAHDI/i9/10" etc, but corresponding buttons don't show their status, when I make call to or from extensions. However status of DAHDI trunks works well, that is, I see channels and phone numbers on trunks.

Check how are your device names are being set by the fop2admin module ( /usr/local/fop2/autoconfig-buttons-freepbx.sh ), and check those names with the active channels for your extensions when you have ongoing calls ( asterisk -rx "core show channels"). If they do not match, you won't see activity.

I have upgraded from Asterisk 1.6 to Asterisk 1.8 and found that the DAHDI channels do not show anymore as well. I have upgraded to FOP2 2.25 with the admin 1.2.10. When running autoconfig-buttons-freepbx.sh I get the DAHDI channels coming back without the i.

Is there a setting I am missing in getting this back working?

FYI - I removed the FOP2admin module and reinstalled ( 1.2.10 ).

I added the line in php.ini max_input_vars = 2500 so that I could post the buttons form properly as the newer version of PHP only permits up to 1000 by default.

I ran the autoconfig-buttons-freepbx.sh and the DAHDI lines do not appear to be showing up correctly still.

I am now showing the channels, but it is not showing up properly.

Eg. I have a trunk which uses channels 1-47 ( private PRI ) and a trunk that uses channels 49-71 ( PRI from telco ).

All channels appear to be coming in via the 1-47 trunk on the FOP2 panel now.

EDIT: Upon further review it seems that Asterisk is not reporting the proper DAHDI channel in use. I make a call out which goes out via DAHDI channel 49, however it is reporting it under DAHDI/i3.

I can only figure that Asterisk is grouping the trunks via an interface number.

Due to this, I changed in FOP2 buttons to use 1-2 for the first two trunk lines ( two links spanned on one group ) and 3 for the last.

This does not appear to work ( one of the trunk buttons light up but does not associate properly to the correct trunk ).

EDIT: To single out the line in FOP2admin - Buttons, you need to set it to 3-3, otherwise it will generate the lines as if going from 1 to 3. This appears to have resolved the issue.
