Perpetual issue for old/dead links

[gtjoseph]

If you find a link to the old wiki.asterisk.org website that just takes you to the new documentation site homepage instead of real content, add it here and we'll try to set up a redirect that takes you to the relevant content instead.

Please include the stale link and, if you found the real content on the new website, that link as well.

https://docs.asterisk.org/Configuration/Dialplan/Special-Dialplan-Extensions/ page has EXCEPTION link with URL https://docs.asterisk.org/latest_api/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Functions/EXCEPTION but I bet it must be https://docs.asterisk.org/Latest_API/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Functions/EXCEPTION (manually detected).

latest_api -> Latest_API. Maybe worth to find others like that (just in case).

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Migrating+from+chan_sip+to+res_pjsip (shouldn't be needed after Asterisk v21, but still good to have)

I couldn't find this content on the new site

[jcolp]

It's here: https://docs.asterisk.org/Configuration/Channel-Drivers/SIP/Configuring-res_pjsip/Migrating-from-chan_sip-to-res_pjsip/

[gtjoseph]

The fix for the Latest_API thing is on its way up.

Hello, I couldn't find the documentation for Dialplan SendFax and Dialplan RecieveFax

https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/SendFax https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/ReceiveFax

[oduserdnov]

Hello, I couldn't find the documentation for Dialplan SendFax and Dialplan RecieveFax

https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/SendFax https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/ReceiveFax

Expected links: https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/SendFAX https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/ReceiveFAX

Looks like this is a common issue across the docs (case does not match).

Btw, I bet it would be better to mention where is the starting point for your links @Starvingg , as I had no issues to locate working ones but yours - have no idea where did you come from.

[Starvingg]

Hey @oduserdnov below is my starting point (At the end of the document) https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Functions/FAXOPT/

I tried searching as well but wasn't confident the ReceiveFax and SendFax I found was related to Dialplan.

[gtjoseph]

Ah. Those need to be fixed in the res_fax module itself. I'll get a fix pushed up.

[gtjoseph]

The case mismatches for dialplan applications and functions should be fixed in all branches now. I had forgotten to do the 16 branch the other day but it's fixed there now as well.

[remiquezada]

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/DIGIUM/Digium+D-Series+Phones

[jcolp]

That was moved to https://sangomakb.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/Phones/pages/21299305/Sangoma+D-Series+Phones as it is Sangoma commercial product documentation, and not part of Asterisk or open source.

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Configuring+res_pjsip (along with the sip link I mentioned earlier) are both referenced in the deprecation notice printed by Asterisk

Hey all! Found a redirect issue for the Hangup Handlers documentation.

Link I was looking for: https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Hangup+Handlers

Link that it was redirected to: https://docs.asterisk.org/Hangup+Handlers

Actual location of information: https://docs.asterisk.org/Configuration/Dialplan/Subroutines/Hangup-Handlers/

[gtjoseph]

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Configuring+res_pjsip (along with the sip link I mentioned earlier) are both referenced in the deprecation notice printed by Asterisk

@2br-2b I thought we squashed all of those. Which branch are you seeing the message in and for which module?

[gtjoseph]

Thanks. I'm trying to find a better way to handle the redirects.

[DrPyser]

https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_certified/18.9_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/WaitExten

Redirected to this page from the See Also section of Playback for the Dialplan Applications WaitExten link.

Seems the path prefix Asterisk_certified/18.9_Documentation should be Certified-Asterisk_18.9_Documentation: https://docs.asterisk.org/Certified-Asterisk_18.9_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/WaitExten/

[gtjoseph]

Thanks for the report @DrPyser . These should all be fixed now.

[ronlockard]

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Hangup+Cause+Mappings

should redirect to

https://docs.asterisk.org/Configuration/Miscellaneous/Hangup-Cause-Mappings/?h=hangup+cause

[gtjoseph]

Thanks @ronlockard. I'm trying to find a better way to handle the redirects that don't fit a known pattern.

[bguilera]

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/SIP+Retransmissions

Currently Redirects to which has no info:

https://docs.asterisk.org/SIP+Retransmissions

Probably should redirect to:

https://docs.asterisk.org/Development/Roadmap/Asterisk-16-Projects/WebRTC-User-Experience-Improvements/?h=retransmission#rtp-packet-retransmission

[gtjoseph]

@bguilera Had you visited that page on the old wiki at some time? I don't see it in the dump we took so I'm wondering what it pointed to originally.

[bguilera]

@gtjoseph Unfortunately no, I don't recall visiting the old wiki.

[sailor-ITlab]

On this Site: https://docs.asterisk.org/Getting-Started/Installing-Asterisk/Installing-Asterisk-From-Source/What-to-Download/ is an Link "Checking Asterix Requirements" which redirects to this non existent site: https://docs.asterisk.org/Getting-Started/Installing-Asterisk/Installing-Asterisk-From-Source/Checking-Asterisk-Requirements

[sailor-ITlab]

On this Site: https://docs.asterisk.org/Getting-Started/Installing-Asterisk/Installing-Asterisk-From-Source/What-to-Download/ is an Link at the download section, which then gives an Error 500: https://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/libpri/libpri-current.tar.gz

I think it should point to: https://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/libpri/libpri-1-current.tar.gz

[paul-jewell]

On this page: https://docs.asterisk.org/Getting-Started/Hello-World/ the "installing pjproject" link is Installing pjproject, but I think it should be https://docs.asterisk.org/Getting-Started/Installing-Asterisk/Installing-Asterisk-From-Source/Prerequisites/PJSIP-pjproject/ Currently it shows the 404 page, linking to this issue. Many thanks!

@supercooltest Thanks for reporting this. This page isn't actually linked from www.asterisk.org any more which is probably why we never updated it. We didn't know it was there. I take it you found this page linked from an external site? Anyway, I've updated it.

Thanks, I'll try and get that fixed on Monday when I'm back in the office.

Hello, no link found: https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/External+Media+and+ARI

The link from https://community.asterisk.org/t/streaming-from-ari-snoop-channel-for-speech-recognition/75982/6

I fixed the community post to point to the correct page.

[gtjoseph]

Old link: https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk+Community+Code+of+Conduct New link: https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk-Community/Asterisk-Community-Code-of-Conduct/

Redirect added. Should show up shortly.

This needed to be fixed in Asterisk itself. Should propagate here in a few days.

[chorons6bo]

Hello, https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Building+and+Installing+Asterisk seem's now https://docs.asterisk.org/Getting-Started/Installing-Asterisk/Installing-Asterisk-From-Source/Building-and-Installing-Asterisk/ but not sure ....

[gtjoseph]

@chorons6bo You're correct. I've added a redirect for the original page and it should become active sometime today.
