Description:	I used this code exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,1,system(echo channel: Local/${EXTEN}@internal > /call)exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,2,system(echo MaxRetries: 1 >> /call) exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,3,system(echo RetryTime: 60 >> /call) exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,4,system(echo WaitTime: 30 >> /call) exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,5,system(echo Context: internal >> /call) exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,6,system(echo Extension: 17326202065 >> /call) exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,7,system(echo Priority: 1 >> /call) exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,8,system(mv /call /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing) But it got stuck after the 6th system call I went around the problom by creating a file called /callte with: MaxRetries: 3 RetryTime: 15 WaitTime: 30 Context: callbacktrunk Extension: s and in my extensions.conf i did as follows: exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,1,system(echo channel: Local/${EXTEN}@internal > /call) exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,2,system(cat /callte  >> /call) exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,3,system(mv /call /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing) which cut it down to only 3 system calls, but this might not work for everybody so please try to fix the bug

The quickest solution that comes to mind is an AGI script instead of all your system calls.
