That certainly doesn't look good, I haven't seen that happen on any of my systems. Do you have any "Congestion" entries in your extensions.conf?

[kissas]

i'have the same problem. checking if a have congestion entry, back to the forum soon.

[mflorell]

Please post your Linux distro and version as well as the verson of perl you are using.

[kissas]

CentOS release 5 (Final)
Perl v5.8.8

[mflorell]

I try to avoid CentOS whenever possible. I have not seen this kind of problem on Slackware, OpenSuSE or Gentoo.

The perl version is probably fine.

im just using the extensions.conf-sample-1.4 from the default astguiclient install.

do i need to add something?

[mflorell]

Nope, in much older version of Asterisk you could use Congestion, but since about 1.2.4 it causes all sorts of problems similar to what you are experiencing. Your problems are most likely caused by something that is not configured properly somewhere else on your system.
