Hi list! On the first we upgraded one of our Asterisk boxes from 1.4 to 1.8.6.0 everything ran OK until tonight we started getting the following messages on the asterisk console and in the log file. [Sep 15 18:05:21] ERROR[14306] res_rtp_asterisk.c: Oh dear... we couldn't allocate a port for RTP instance '0xb138$ [Sep 15 18:05:21] ERROR[14306] chan_sip.c: Got SDP but have no RTP session allocated. Looked at the active number of channels using core show channels and no channels were reported as being in use/active. had to restart the asterisk service to restore access. No other messages in the log to indicate what could be the issue. Anyone else ever see that happen? Thanks! Joseph

Just out of curiosity, what's your /etc/asterisk/rtp.conf say? -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 260 Peachtree Street NW Suite 2200 Atlanta, GA 30303 Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Fax: +1-404-961-1892 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/

Here ya go. Its a very basic configuration. We basically just use this server as a sip/media proxy for some call center agents so we can record the audio from a central location. The calls are generated from a shoretel system which sends the SIP calls to the asterisk box then the asterisk box sends everything on to the carrier sip address. The agents are around 30 at a time. They do outbound calls and then conferencing.

Hi, you can use lsof already now to check whether port usage (between 10000 and 20000) is growing or not. see man lsof - Stefan o Joseph Jackson on 09/16/2011 08:02 AM:
