QM with astmanproxy

[AB_FCR]

I just sent a similar question to support, but was hoping to get a wider audience.  I use queuemetrics in a fairly busy call center, that is about to get busier during the holidays.  Support previously suggested that I could try out astmanproxy to help lessen the load on the AMI, that other users have had good success with it.

I was wondering if anyone had any guidance to get astmanproxy working with queuemetrics.  When I try to pass commands now I receive a "QueueMetrics cannot send the command to the PBX" error.

I am aware that we have a few clients using proxies, though I'm not sure this is exactly AstManProxy.

Well if anyone has any suggestions, including other proxies to use Id be grateful.  I do not understand the AMI well enough to really move forward.

The error received in the AMI tester is, edited slightly.

AMI URL: tcp:login:password@192.168.1.1:5038

    Problem: AMI query failed

I understand you patched AstManProxy to go past this error - what did you change?

[AB_FCR]

I got your email, so Im pretty sure you already know this.  But for anyone else that may be interested I had to change the proxy banner and the proxy version to get this to work inside of astmanproxy. 

Inside the makefile i changed the version to read as 1.0 instead of 1.27.  Also I changed the Proxy_Banner to say "Asterisk Call Manager" instead of "Asterisk Call Manager Proxy".

Thanks - so if we add detection of "Asterisk Call manager proxy" we know we can ignore the version.
This makes it easy to fix!
