Dial plan not working in asterisk server - asterisk

Question

I am writing asterisk dial plan for testing purpose. I write this in my extension.conf:-
[demo]
exten => s,1,Answer
exten => s,n,Read(user_number)
exten => s,n,SayDigits(${user_number})
exten => s,n,System(echo 'User entered ${user_number}' >> /tmp/key.txt)
When i call on 8500, call successfully established, But when user press 1 or 2 or 3 key on sjphone then playback is not working. I can't hear any sound.
Here is my complete extension.conf:-
;
; Static extension configuration file, used by
; the pbx_config module. This is where you configure all your
; inbound and outbound calls in Asterisk.
;
; This configuration file is reloaded
; - With the "extensions reload" command in the CLI
; - With the "reload" command (that reloads everything) in the CLI
;
; The "General" category is for certain variables.
;
[general]
;
; If static is set to no, or omitted, then the pbx_config will rewrite
; this file when extensions are modified. Remember that all comments
; made in the file will be lost when that happens.
;
; XXX Not yet implemented XXX
;
static=yes
;
; if static=yes and writeprotect=no, you can save dialplan by
; CLI command 'save dialplan' too
;
writeprotect=yes
;
; If autofallthrough is set, then if an extension runs out of
; things to do, it will terminate the call with BUSY, CONGESTION
; or HANGUP depending on Asterisk's best guess (strongly recommended).
;
; If autofallthrough is not set, then if an extension runs out of
; things to do, asterisk will wait for a new extension to be dialed
; (this is the original behavior of Asterisk 1.0 and earlier).
;
autofallthrough=yes
;
; If clearglobalvars is set, global variables will be cleared
; and reparsed on an extensions reload, or Asterisk reload.
;
; If clearglobalvars is not set, then global variables will persist
; through reloads, and even if deleted from the extensions.conf or
; one of its included files, will remain set to the previous value.
;
clearglobalvars=no
;
; If priorityjumping is set to 'yes', then applications that support
; 'jumping' to a different priority based on the result of their operations
; will do so (this is backwards compatible behavior with pre-1.2 releases
; of Asterisk). Individual applications can also be requested to do this
; by passing a 'j' option in their arguments.
;
priorityjumping=yes
;
; You can include other config files, use the #include command
; (without the ';'). Note that this is different from the "include" command
; that includes contexts within other contexts. The #include command works
; in all asterisk configuration files.
;#include "filename.conf"
; The "Globals" category contains global variables that can be referenced
; in the dialplan with ${VARIABLE} or ${ENV(VARIABLE)} for Environmental
; variables,
; ${${VARIABLE}} or ${text${VARIABLE}} or any hybrid
;
;[globals]

Answer 1

It seems you didn't understand how to write dialplan properly.
The proper syntax for an extension is:
exten => number,priority,application([parameter[,parameter2...]])
so if you want to do something when user press 1,
write it like
exten => 1,1,playback(digits/1)
and for better understanding read the book asterisk: future of telephony
