<DIV>I tried implementing voicemail by running SER twice simultaneouly on the same box. The first is running with my ser.cfg [pid 24264 below], and the second is with a slight variation of voicemail.cfg [pid 23911 below] as posted recently by Jiri.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This is all done with the 0.8.11 major release of SER. I didn't take the files from CVS as suggested. I'll try that soon. Are there any changes in CVS which are incompatible with the 0.8.11 database configuration? Are there any other changes which I would have to be careful of with respect to compatibility?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Two instances of SER running on the same box works fairly well. I occasionally get an error via syslog which looks like this:<BR></DIV>
<DIV>Oct 13 12:36:07 jiffypop Sems[23889]: Error: while getting return code from Ser<BR></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Below is an example of syslog output when a user is part of the voicemail group but has no user locations in the location database.</DIV>

<DIV>Below is an example of a call that gets transferred to voicemail via a failure_route [timeout or "busy" reply]. Notice that the ****vm end - begin******* and *****vm end - end ****** entries are missing. Essentially, the voicemail instance of SER isn't processing the BYE messages. I'm not sure why. I guess the other instance of SER is processing them.</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I think these [above log messages] types of transactions are responsible for the above mentioned SEMS error, but I'm not sure.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>What I really need now is a way to deal with the timer issue. Jiri, I don't think I need multiple timers. I never want SER to timeout calls placed to the PSTN. I just want one timer which I can apply to selective transactions. Right now, the timer causes all calls to fail. I understand that I can change processing on failure, and I am doing this, but it would be very nice if the timer could be used only for specific transactions. I think this would involve setting it through a function call instead of a modparam call, but I don't know since I haven't actually looked at any code.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I've also tried to just relay PSTN calls again (re-relay) through a failure route after the timer expires, but that doesn't seem to be working too well. Is this possible?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Also, I think its not necessary to implement the "single-ser" config that is capable of running voicemail if this dual configuration works well. Of cource, the "single-ser" config would make it a little simpler for users.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,<BR>Noah</DIV>
