I have both Zap (DAHDI) and AIX2 phone installed. All works fine except that Voix Manager don't see the hookstate of any Zap. The AIX2 hookstate works fine.
Any settings I should look for in dahdi-channels.conf?
FreePBX 2.5.1.2 Asterisk 1.4.23.1 Dahdi 2.2.0

I never tested with DAHDI, was tested on zaptel and I know that works, and I think should work with DAHDI too.

A problem could be freepbx that manage some settings from astdb, but I have not any asterisk with freepbx so I cannot test it in short time.

Did you tested on some other asterisk box that use standard asterisk configuration?

Also I've notices that with the FOP that comes with FreePBX the same ting happens. No hookstate on any ZAP (DAHDI).

One other observation is that in Asterisl CLI when I use "dahdi show xx" I can see the hookstate change. This to me means the DAHDI driver I am using is working and Asterisk.

If you are using FreePbx, there is a parameter in amportal.conf:

1. ZAP2DAHDICOMPAT=true|false
2. DEFAULT VALUE: false

You need to set the value to true.

try it.

Hope this helps...

I think it's dahdichanname = no

1) In /etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf add:

[options]
dahdichanname = no

This will ensure full compatibility with /etc/asterisk/extensions*.

2) In /etc/asterisk/ link chan_dahdi.conf with zapata.conf:

ln -s chan_dahdi.conf zapata.conf
