What exactly is a time synchronization issue?

[mrgunston]

Hi There,

I understand time synchronization issues are a common problem that might occur in Vicidial however, I was wondering if someone could explain from a technical perspective what exactly a time sync issue actually is, and what usually causes these kinds of issues?

Thanks,
Paul

theres 2 ways this happens, the first is that all the sockets(screens) are not running that vicidial needs, the other is because your time on the system do not match your php time, i have an article on my blog on how to fix this if you need

I don't know, but I think could be more than 100 causes why this could happen

Wrong IP added on the VICI configuration

Database issue

and 98 more causes

1.The vicidial based system is using MeetMe conference , These MeetMe Conference Bridge requires a timing resources like Dahdi or Zaptel. if they are not loaded poperly then time sync error occurs
2.wrong time set for DB time , PHP time , server Time
3.Not updated the New server ip in DB
