duplicatesASTERISK-21691 bridge cmd does not hangup if the bridged leg hangedup
Environment:CentOS 6Attachments:( 0) ami.txt

Description:Sometimes when executing an AMI Bridge on two channels one of the channels will have hungup and disappeared. Although the timing must be precise for this to occur (the hangup event and the bridge event "passing in transit" so to speak) we're seeing it a few hundred times a day on a busy system.

The AMI Bridge correctly response that Channel2 does not exist. It then continues to try and do the bridge anyway (!). This results in Channel1 being hungup.
It's worth noting that if Channel1 doesn't exist it gives the same error, but *does not* try and continue, which to me is the correct behavior.

This seems to happen regardless of the dialplan, however for our testing we had Channel1 sitting in a Wait loop, like so:

exten => _X.,1,Answer()
       same => n,Set(DiallingHub=${EXTEN})
       same => n,UserEvent(GLDiallingHubJoin,DiallingHub: ${DiallingHub},Channel: ${CHANNEL})
       same => n(agentinhub),NoOp(AGENT ${EXTEN} waiting in Dialling Hub)
       same => n,Wait(600)
       same => n,Goto(agentinhub)

I've included the AMI output and CLI outputs when this occurs.

If you need any further details please let me know.

Looks like the AMI bridge action code has always done this.  The code that handles the action is in features.c:action_bridge().  The routine needs to be reordered to call the do_bridge_masquerade()'s for each channel after the verification and preparation work for each channel.

In my case, I was able to figure out why it happens - When I use in dial the "G" option, it looses the track of the bridged call.

Are you also experiencing this under Asterisk 13?
