Figured it out. If you have the format set to wav49 vs raw wav, the section in
i_functions.php doesn't see the actual voicemail file. This is due to wav49
having an
extension of .WAV vs .wav.
You can either tell the system to save the files as regular .wav or change the
line
where lame is called (line # 401) in i_functions.php to look for .WAV. I have
tested
both and both seem to work.
You can change the voicemail format in voicemail.conf under "format =". See
below for
more clarification from the voip-info wiki entry.
Hope this helps someone
KSM
voicemail.conf
format
The format setting selects audio file format(s) to use when storing voice mail
messages. The value is a string defining the audio format(s) of the message
file. The
default format string is wav49|gsm|wav, meaning that Asterisk will save the
voicemail
message in all three supported formats. When emailing the attachment, however,
it
will send only the first of the formats defined here. When playing back (as
with all
file playback) Asterisk will attempt to use the optimum format based on the
codec
used for the current channel, in order to provide the best sound quality and to
reduce transcoding processing time.
* wav49: In this format, the file size will be small, the quality good, and it's
a good choice for sending voicemail messages in email. The file will have a .WAV
extension, which all Windows users should have no problems with, and users on
other
platforms should also be able to easily play these sound files.
* gsm: Voicemail saved in this format will have about the same file size and same
audio quality as wav49. It may be less well supported by client operating
systems if
sent to users in email, however.
* wav: This is an uncompressed sound format with a .wav extension, so the file
size is very large. Sound quality will be great, but you probably don't want to
email
it, and you must have adequate disk space.
* g723sf: The sample voicemail.conf file has this option commented out. If you
try to activate it, you will find that it doesn't work.
If you're running Asterisk on Mac OS X, which has a case-preserving but
case-insensitive file system, you can use .wav but you won't be able to use
.WAV(wav49). Asterisk tries to pick the best file in the Playback command based
on
the encoding of your channel, and then looks for the file by file type in a
specific
order. In either case, asterisk will look for filename.wav, and if there is a
filename.WAV, the file lookup will succeed. Asterisk will then try to play the
file
as "wav", and choke on the format. This is especially noticeable in voicemail.
If you
have both wav49 and wav in the format= option, one will replace the other. You
must
remove wav49 from the format= option in voicemail.conf.

I had the same problem for a different reason.
Apache’s $PATH is set [/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin] on my machine (a MacOSX
box).
My Lame was installed using MacPorts, so it was not being found.
The solution was to soft link :
$ sudo ln -s /opt/local/bin/lame /usr/bin/lame

In my case I solve it after looking at the apache log
apache lame: command not found
You need to add the path to lame
Edit i_functions.php
from
$cmd = "lame --resample ...............
to
$cmd = "/usr/local/bin/lame --resample
