Bug#438702: Asterisk v1.4.9~dfsg-1 Crashed

[GNUbie]

Hello all,

Although I already made a response to Mr. Tzafrir Cohen's original message
regarding this bug 4 days ago, I am now re-sending it to the Debian BTS for
record purposes.

Ok, here are the things I've done here on my Asterisk v1.4.9 on Debian
GNU/Linux Etch:

To get a core file:

I did this.

Enable the -g flag to Asterisk by editing the init.d script (there's an

I didn't follow this.  What I did was I uncommented the line 21 of my
/etc/default/asterisk file with the line that look like this:

PARAMS="-F -g -vvv"

Please install thepackage asterisk-dbg to produce useful backtraces.


I didn't installed the asterisk-dbg package.  After starting the Asterisk
service through:

# /etc/init.d/asterisk start

I entered into the Asterisk shell then executed the command below:

CLI> set verbose 10

So, after a few call attempts to a GSM mobile phone and PSTN telephone, the
Asterisk service crashed and you can download the core dump file it
generated at http://files-upload.com/files/455557/core.asterisk-1.4.9 or at
http://www.filecrunch.com/file/~jab6ay .  I hope that this core dump file
can help provide you information on what's the cause of the problem and a
possible solution on your side.

I would also like to add info about this crash problem that I think Asterisk
crashes when the caller is from a SIP (soft)phone calling to a PSTN
telephone because I remember that I've been using it calling from an analog
phone to a PSTN telephone and vice versa but the Asterisk don't crash or
even the channels are released properly after the call.

Thank you in advance.

More power to you!

GNUbie
