asteriskLogger fails without reasonable message when internet connection is unavailable

[ghost]

asteriskLogger needs to access the internet in order for it's SOAP client to work. But this isn't made clear anywhere in the documentation nor in the output:

Only after a few hours digging in meaningless backtraces did I find nusoap had a debug output and hacked it to write to stderr:

As the error comes from nusoap, it can't probably be fixed in yaai; however, this issue might be worth mentioning in the docs.

I'm surprised that it does. Thanks for pointing this out.

You were testing with the local IP address and not a host name? What requires Internet?

I was testing it with a local IP, that is OK. The SOAP library requires internet for its internal needs, i.e. to fetch http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/, as can be seen from the log. That has nothing to do with the location of my Sugar instance -- that's why it's confusing. It's unpleasant that it has to fetch such a thing at all (there is no principial reason that connecting to a local SOAP server should require fetching something from the internet), but at least it's better to know about it.

[blak3r]

You're right. NuSOAP downloads the schema definitions from the internet.

I suspect we could save the schema locally and specify the $namespaces as shown here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4832415/how-to-disable-external-schema-downloads-in-nusoap

I'm hesitant to get too involved with that right now as someone else already rewrote asteriskLogger to use native soap support and that would also get rid of those error messages in AsteriskLogger which confuse lots of people...

Hi,

Does anyone know of a definitive resolution to this issue yet? Having a problem with an installation, I can solve it using hardware but if there is a way around it through configuration that'd be fantastic.

[blak3r]

How can you solve it is ring "hardware"?

Well the site of the installation in question has 2 routers, one with a DSL that only allows voice traffic (which is what the server is currently connected with, and what is causing the problem), and the other with a standard DSL line (which I can't use to connect the server, because of voice quality issues). I'll put in a small managed switch that routes all the http traffic from the server over the standard DSL, while keeping voice traffic routed over the dedicated line. So not really a solution, more of a workaround.

Is your sugar instance on the same box as the asterisk server. Only the box running asterisk logger would need the network connection.
