I've successfully built VoIP server with FreePBX Asterisk. It works fine when I register a user on FreePBX. However, I would like to register a SIP account from mobile device directly. I found out that I can add custom information into FreePBX MySQL database.
However, it doesn't work either, and I couldn't find a place to insert SIP password.. Someone said that I need to do something with /var/www/html/admin/functions.inc.php file. Is there better way to create a new SIP extension from outside of FreePBX GUI? Thank you.
Freepbx not use database way(asterisk realtime).
Instead it use text file method.
After adding new info into mysql database, you have apply changes on web to write new config files. You can do same from command line interface (see amp_engine), but can't do that using db query.
Other option is use freepbx framework.php correctly.
Also you can use asterisk realtime architecture and not use freepbx dialplan.
WARNING Freepbx is designed for low number of extensions and low load(branch office pbx). As result using it for support mobile device application will be great fail. Check other projects, for example a2billing.org or hire expert to build core server with HA/failover for your need.

I am new to biometrics. I bought a new Persona U are U 4500 Device and SDK from a vendor. The SDK has some samples (as expected). All of the samples run smoothly except the WebSample. it do not detects my device in addition it gives an error in the console.
Can anyone please help me how to fix this issue and guide me as why am i facing this problem? is it something related to my wss://localhost?
Update
By further diving into the program i found the specified url https://127.0.0.1:52181/get_connection in websdk.client.bundle.min.js when i opened the link it says
{
"code": -2147024894,
"message": "The system cannot find the file specified."
}
Am i missing some file?
I don't have it in front of me now, because I switched back to the U.are.U 2.2.3 SDK, which does not have this feature.
But it sounds like you possibly have not installed the Digital Persona Lite client component. This runs a separate WebSocket service on port 9001 (IIRC) through which the JavaScript client then communicates.
It is described here: https://hidglobal.github.io/digitalpersona-devices/tutorial.html
After installation, you will need to restart.
The call to https://127.0.0.1:52181/get_connection should then respond with details of the WebSocket service, to which the JavaScript client will connect.
NOTE: The WebSkd library requires DigitalPersona Agent running on a
client machine. This agent provides a secure communication channel
between a browser and a fingerprint or card device driver. The
DigitalPersona Agent is a part of a HID DigitalPersona Workstation. It
can be also installed with a DigitalPersona Lite Client. If you expect
your users do not use HID DigitalPersona Workstation, you may need to
provide your users with a link to the Lite Client download, which you
should show on a reader communication error:
A link is provided there to download the Lite client from here: https://www.crossmatch.com/AltusFiles/AltusLite/digitalPersonaClient.Setup64.exe
you just add a script call of the following code "crossorigin = '' ". "crossorigin=''". It will look like this:
<script src="scripts/websdk.client.bundle.min.js" crossorigin="*"></script>
<script src="scripts/fingerprint.sdk.min.js" crossorigin="*"></script>
I am not using real-time asterisk , But still astdb.sqlite3 contains entries of online peers with Reg.Contact information in SIP/registry/peer. key . I would like to store contact information of all peers as they come online in a separate persistent database. I need this for sending push notifications by fetching deviceID etc information in registration contact .
I tried to pull this information from astdb.sqlite3 but the entries are clearing off as soon as devices go offline .Though I am able to fetch the information with "sip show peer XXXX" in asterisk CLI , It is overburdened to fetch every time like this . Instead I want to save only Regcontact information for all the devices in a database ( without realtime) as the devices come online. The other way I tried to pull the information is using AMI event listener. But with AMI I don't see complete information like contact information It displays only below information
Event: PeerStatus
Privilege: system,all
SequenceNumber: 75
File: manager.c
Line: 1856
Func: manager_default_msg_cb
ChannelType: SIP
Peer: SIP/2030
PeerStatus: Reachable
Can someone suggest a better way to push Only Regcontact information to a database as the devices come online .
There are no mechanism like that in asterisk.
You can use kamailio or write patch similar to this one https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/4490/
It sounds like you have dynamic IPs for your endpoints, and you want a way to update a separate DB as soon as a device registers with an IP/port pair.
If you enable the security log, you will see all auth events, including the "SuccessfulAuth" event, which includes the RemoteAddress of the endpoint (including port and protocol).
Here is an example line:
[Jul 21 19:53:45] SECURITY[1342] res_security_log.c: SecurityEvent="SuccessfulAuth",EventTV="2020-07-21T19:53:45.182+0000",Severity="Informational",Service="SIP",EventVersion="1",AccountID="102",SessionID="0x7f41040132c0",LocalAddress="IPV4/UDP/10.0.0.200/5060",RemoteAddress="IPV4/UDP/10.0.0.75/5062",UsingPassword="1"
If all you're looking for is AccountID="102" and RemoteAddress="IPV4/UDP/10.0.0.75/5062", a very fast/cheap way to get it is to enable the security log, and use a script to tail it and update your DB as soon as the event occurs. I like to keep the security log on anyways for utilities like fail2ban. Just make sure your script is able to reopen the file each time it is rotated.
Edit:
By default the log is in /var/log/asterisk. To enable it, edit /etc/asterisk/logger.conf and un-comment (or create) the line under [logfiles] that says security => security.
My place of business currently uses Reflection for Unix and OpenVMS to handle a database of customers. I access this database directly through the Reflection emulation. The only way to get data out of Reflection is to navigate to a single customer via keyboard input and print the information to a .txt.
Is there anyway I can access the VM other than through Reflection with the end goal of automating retrieval of customer information from a Java script executed outside of the Reflection environment? This is the information I can gather via the Reflection interface about what I am connecting to:
At the bottom of the Reflection interface - VT500-7 -- HOST_NAME via SECURE SHELL
Via the Connection Setup drop-down:
Host name: HOST_NAME
SSH config scheme: AutoKeyLogin
User name: username
Via the Security... button:
General tab:
Port number: 22
User Authentication: [x] Public Key
[x] Password
User Keys tab:
Use Name Type Location
[x] username1user DSA C:\Documents\PathToSSHKey\.ssh
Host Keys tab:
Host Type Fingerprint
HOST_NAME, 111.1.111.11, 22 DSA 39:14:f3:123:fds:restOfFingerprint
There is more information available if the solution is possible but I have just not provided enough to solve it, so please ask.
Given that I have the host name, port, .ssh, and host key, is it possible to connect to and read from the VM that I am otherwise connecting to normally via the Reflection emulator?
NO. Reflection (other example is PuTTY) is just a dumb-terminal emulator, here using the (secure) SSH protocol to connect to some Operating System. From the information provided we cannot even tell which OS. Maybe OpenVMS maybe some Unix. Most certainly not a 'VM', but a physical box. Maybe a Alpha, Integrity, Sun, IBM or Intel server.
IF, big if, it is OpenVMS you would possibly see something like this flash by on entry:
XXX - HP rx2600 (1.50GHz/6.0MB) OpenVMS IA64 V8.3-1H1
Last interactive login on Thursday, 7-DEC-2017 13:23:19.83
Last non-interactive login on Wednesday, 6-DEC-2017 12:35:45.80
Most likely username uses is set up to always start a (shell) script which starts a menu from which a program is activated, which knows how to access data record. IF is it OpenVMS then the actual data is likely stored in RMS (indexed) files, but it could in a proper (Oracle RDB or RDBMS) database.
If bulk access to the data is needed then you need to talk to the system/application manager for the system 'HOST_NAME' and ask them about the application and its database.
You may find that there is FTP, ODBC or JDBC or natice DB (OCI?) access to the data avaiable already, or that this can be requested. Likely tools in this space are ConnX, Attunity Connect, and such.
First you'll need to find out which OS/Platform/Version, which application (3rd party? home grown? 4GL? Cobol? Basic? and ultimately, which database/storage method.
That's not to say that some terminal emulator cannot be 'tricked' (google -
screen scraping) to be programmed to fetch a series of data on command, but that will always be error prone and laboriously for limited volumes.
You are better of trying to get proper data access.
Good luck! You'll need some.

The ESB Toolkit 2.1 has the ALL.Exceptions send port using the old SQL adapter.
But the BizTalk Health Monitor reports ...
Non WCF SQL adapter used in some Send Ports
Prefer to use the WCF one which is more performant !
Is there any way to update to the WCF.SQL adapter?
Yes this is possible. It will however include some custom development.
You will need to create a map between the FaultMessage schema (in Microsoft.Practices.ESB.ExceptionHandling.Schemas.Reporting.dll) and the usp_insert_Fault schema (created using the Consume Adapter Service in Visual Studio, from the usp_insert_Fault SP in the EsbExceptionDb database), as the old SQL Adapter uses a different schema layout to execute a stored procedure.
Required Steps:
Change the Transport Type of the ALL.Exceptions port to WCF-SQL
Set the Address: mssql://SQLServer:1433/SQLInstance/EsbExceptionDb?
Set the Action: TypedProcedure/dbo/usp_insert_Fault
Change the ESBFaultProcessor Send Pipeline to use your custom map in the ESB Transform Component
EDIT: Note: The solution described here does not include the Message and its Context like the map with the SQL Adapter does. To accomplish this, you should make use of Composite Operation to insert into multiple tables in one transaction.
We have a vendor that sends CSV files as email attachments. These CSV files contain statuses that are imported into our application. I'm trying to automate the process end-to-end, but it currently depends on someone opening an email, saving the attachment to a server share, so the application can use the file.
Since I cannot convince the vendor to change their process, such as offering an FTP location or a Web Service, I'm stuck with trying to automate the existing process.
Does anyone know of a way to programmatically open an email from a POP3 account and extract an attachment? The preferred solution would reside on a Windows 2003 server, be written VB.NET and secure. The application can reside on the same server as the POP3 server, for example, we could setup the free POP3 server that comes with Windows Server and pull against the mail file stored on the file system.
BTW, we are willing to pay for an off-the-shelf solution, if one exists.
Note: I did look at this question but the answer points to a CodeProject solution that doesn't deal with attachments.
Try Mail.dll email component, it's very affordable, supports attachments national characters and is easy to use, it also supports SSL:
Using pop3 As New Pop3()
pop3.Connect("mail.server.com")
pop3.Login("user", "password")
Dim builder As New MailBuilder()
For Each uid As String In pop3.GetAll()
' Receive email message'
Dim mail As IMail = builder.CreateFromEml(pop3.GetMessageByUID(uid))
'Write out received message'
Console.WriteLine(mail.Subject)
'Here you can use mail.Attachmets collection'
For Each attachment As MimeData In mail.Attachments
Console.WriteLine(attachment.FileName)
attachment.Save("c:\" + attachment.FileName)
' you can also use attachment.Data here'
Next attachment
Next
pop3.Close(true)
End Using
You can download it here: http://www.lesnikowski.com/mail.
possible duplication of Reading Email using Pop3 in C#
Atleast, there's a shed load of suggestions there that you may find useful
I'll throw in a late suggestion for a more generalized "download POP3 messages and extract attachments" solution using existing software and minimal programming. I needed to do this for a client who switched to receiving faxes via email and was not pleased with manually saving the attachments to a location where they could be imported into an application.
For downloading messages on *nix systems fetchmail seems to be the standard and is very capable, but I chose mpop for both simplicity and Windows compatibility (but it is cross-platform). If mpop hadn't done the trick for me, I probably would have ended up doing something with the Python-based getmail, which was created when fetchmail's development stalled for a time (it's since resumed).
Mpop is controlled either via command line or configuration file, so I simply created multiple configuration files and specify via command line which file to load. I'm using it in "Exchange pickup directory" mode, which means it simply downloads the messages and drops them as text (.eml) files in a specified directory.
For extraction of the message attachments, UUDeview appears to be the standard (I'm using the Windows port of UUDeview) across just about any system you could want with just about any features you could want. My main alternative to this was a much-less-capable Python script that I'd developed for a different client back in 2007, but I'm happy to go with a precompiled executable over either installing Python or packaging with any of the Python-to-exe options.
Finally there's the configuration - along with the two mpop configuration files mentioned above (which I could do away with by using command-line options), I also have two 2-line .cmd files launched every 10 minutes by scheduled task - the first line to launch mpop to download into a working directory and the second line to launch UUDeview and extract attachments of specified types (.pdf or .tif) then delete each file from which it extracted attachments. Output is sent to another directory from which staff can directly attach files as needed.
This is overall not the most elegant way to reach these ends, but it was quick, simple, functional and reasonably robust - at each stage if something goes wrong it fails such that no data is lost. The only places where data could be lost are any non-attachment messages being sent to the dedicated fax email addresses, and even those will sit in the processing directory and be caught eventually.
