Perpetual issue for old/dead links

If you find a link to the old wiki.asterisk.org website that just takes you to the new documentation site homepage instead of real content, add it here and we'll try to set up a redirect that takes you to the relevant content instead.

Please include the stale link and, if you found the real content on the new website, that link as well.

https://docs.asterisk.org/Configuration/Dialplan/Special-Dialplan-Extensions/ page has EXCEPTION link with URL https://docs.asterisk.org/latest_api/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Functions/EXCEPTION but I bet it must be https://docs.asterisk.org/Latest_API/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Functions/EXCEPTION (manually detected).

latest_api -> Latest_API. Maybe worth to find others like that (just in case).

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Migrating+from+chan_sip+to+res_pjsip (shouldn't be needed after Asterisk v21, but still good to have)

I couldn't find this content on the new site

It's here: https://docs.asterisk.org/Configuration/Channel-Drivers/SIP/Configuring-res_pjsip/Migrating-from-chan_sip-to-res_pjsip/

The fix for the Latest_API thing is on its way up.

Hello, I couldn't find the documentation for Dialplan SendFax and Dialplan RecieveFax

https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/SendFax
https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/ReceiveFax

@Starvingg

Hello, I couldn't find the documentation for Dialplan SendFax and Dialplan RecieveFax

https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/SendFax https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/ReceiveFax

Expected links:
https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/SendFAX
https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Applications/ReceiveFAX

Looks like this is a common issue across the docs (case does not match).

Btw, I bet it would be better to mention where is the starting point for your links @Starvingg , as I had no issues to locate working ones but yours - have no idea where did you come from.

@oduserdnov

Hey @oduserdnov below is my starting point (At the end of the document)
https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk_16_Documentation/API_Documentation/Dialplan_Functions/FAXOPT/

I tried searching as well but wasn't confident the ReceiveFax and SendFax I found was related to Dialplan.

Ah. Those need to be fixed in the res_fax module itself. I'll get a fix pushed up.

The case mismatches for dialplan applications and functions should be fixed in all branches now. I had forgotten to do the 16 branch the other day but it's fixed there now as well.

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/DIGIUM/Digium+D-Series+Phones

That was moved to https://sangomakb.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/Phones/pages/21299305/Sangoma+D-Series+Phones as it is Sangoma commercial product documentation, and not part of Asterisk or open source.

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Configuring+res_pjsip (along with the sip link I mentioned earlier) are both referenced in the deprecation notice printed by Asterisk

Hey all! Found a redirect issue for the Hangup Handlers documentation.

Link I was looking for:
https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Hangup+Handlers

Link that it was redirected to:
https://docs.asterisk.org/Hangup+Handlers

Actual location of information:
https://docs.asterisk.org/Configuration/Dialplan/Subroutines/Hangup-Handlers/

@2br-2b
I thought we squashed all of those. Which branch are you seeing the message in and for which module?

Thanks. I'm trying to find a better way to handle the redirects.

There was a bug in the script that checks out asterisk. It was always using the master branch to generate the docs instead of the intended branch. The documentation is rebuilding now. Should be updated in an hour or so.

@thicsilva

@thicsilva Fixed now. Good catch, thanks.

Old link: https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Voice+Prompts+and+Music+on+Hold+License
Attempted redirect: https://docs.asterisk.org/Voice+Prompts+and+Music+on+Hold+License
Intended redirect?: https://docs.asterisk.org/About-the-Project/License-Information/Voice-Prompts-and-Music-on-Hold-License/?h=voice+prompts

@awelotta

@awelotta Thanks the the report. I've added the correct redirect for it which should become active overnight.

#asterisk IRC code of conduct - bit.ly/1hH6P22
resolves to:
https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk+Community+Code+of+Conduct
but content is at:
https://docs.asterisk.org/Asterisk-Community/Asterisk-Community-Code-of-Conduct/

@telsberry

@telsberry Thanks for the report. I had a redirect for that already but it had a typo in it. It should be fixed when the publish process runs tonight.

https://docs.asterisk.org/Getting-Started/Beginning-Asterisk/ instructs users to visit the Wiki for up-to-date information, but the links are to //

@paradoxheart

@paradoxheart Thanks for the report. I've corrected the wording and links. It should be fixed when the publish process runs tonight.

@samhilmw

@samhilmw Thanks for the report. I've fixed the redirect and it should be live when the publish process runs tonight.

@rodaimi

@rodaimi Thanks for the report! I've fixed the redirect and it should be live when the publish process runs tonight.

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+11+AMI+Events

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+11+AMI+Actions

Asterisk 11 has been end-of-life since 2017 so it's not possible to generate the API documentation for it. The only thing we could do in this case is to redirect to the latest API documentation but I'm not sure how helpful that would be.
