rpt.conf "connpgm" and "discpgm" not working

[Allan-N]

As reported on Community :

One thing I ran into on the otherwise very smooth setup is the connpgm (and discpgm) programs. However I put these options into the rpt.conf file, template section or general part I cannot seem to get this to work. Even just a simple touch of a file in /tmp doesn’t seem to get executed. Have I missed something in the extensive (again kudo’s) documentation about changes to this option for ASL3?

Sure enough, I put together a simple pair of shell scripts that logged it's arguments, updated my "rpt.conf" file to exec these scripts, restarted asterisk, connected/disconnected, and the scripts were not executed. At first glance, it "looks" like we are not parsing the variables.

Did the cli show any errors? (or enable debugging on app_rpt and see what is reported)

[Allan-N]

I did not enable debug but no errors are reported. But, looking at the sources I don't see where we even look for the variable in the config. Maybe just an oversight when the code was updated?

I have these settings on my node:

connpgm = /usr/local/sbin/smlogger 1 ; Default: Disabled. discpgm = /usr/local/sbin/smlogger 0 ; Default: Disabled.

My node is logging information. (My asterisk instance is running as root)

[Allan-N]

Are you certain that smlogger is logging on your system?

From the top of the app_rpt sources, exec :

find . -type f -exec grep "connpgm" {} /dev/null \;

[KB4MDD]

Yes - I double checked.

find . -type f -exec grep "connpgm" {} /dev/null \; ./apps/app_rpt.c: if (!myrpt->p.connpgm) ./apps/app_rpt.c: i = strlen(them) + strlen(myrpt->p.connpgm) + +100; ./apps/app_rpt.c: sprintf(a, "%s %s %s &", myrpt->p.connpgm, myrpt->name, them);

[Allan-N]

Right. That's the code that would exec the programs. What's missing is code that sets "p.connpgm".

[KB4MDD]

connpgm was missing. I see that discpgm was present - that is probably why my log file was being udpated.

Pull request being issued.

This will be included in app_rpt 3.0.1
