Asterisk stops.....

[arunkoods]

Hi Matt,
My asterisk server was having trouble with the chocking Router and bad network....and suddenly when i saw the cron it was empty and hence i edited and added cron for vicidal (crontab -e) ....and things are fine now but Asterisk stops suddenly when dialling is going on and this happens everday around 12:30 to 1am .

is there any reason of asterisk getting stopped automatically...............

What exactly is in your crontab?

And please post your configuration and version numbers ... put it in your signature. Never know, you could have an old version with that issue and just need to upgrade.
