Use application specific log4j.xml

2013-05-21T19:23:33Z

Dears, Could we load more than one xml configuration file for loggers , log4j.xml or any other logger, to be one log configuration file for each application deployed on the VXML server ?!!, because when i did that( using domconfigurator on the application start class of each application ) the vxml sever is always overwriting one of them with the other and uses it for both applications which is wrong !!!! Would anyone here ever HELP ?!!!!

Did you try putting both jar files into the application's deploy/java/application/lib folder? Or did you restart VxmlServer when you had the files in the java/util directory (it's only reloaded on a restart of VxmlServer). If you want to try these options, you must remember to take the jar files out of the VxmlServer/common directory because VxmlServer/common takes precedence. And restart VxmlServer.

Hi Janine, Thank you for the swift response. Here’s a bit more detail: - · I have a StartCall class which uses the Hibernate API to read data from a database. It then stores some Java beans as session data. I then have a decision element which retrieves the data from the CVP session. When the decision element executes I get the ClassNotFoundException even though the bean class is in the java/util/lib folder for the application. Also the StartCall element can find the class when it executes which is strange. · I have a decision element which contacts a server using a bespoke XML API over TCP and fetches some data. The data is then stored in a CVP session variable. A SayItSmart element that I developed then tries to access that data but I get the ClassCastException (even though the Object passed to the SayItSmart is of the correct class). I believe that this is a class-loader issue as the two objects cannot be cast as they were loaded with different class loaders. I guess I’m looking for what is best practice to avoid the issues above. Although I resolved the issue, copying the jar files to an area which makes them accessible to all applications seems a little inelegant. The contents of the two application lib folders are shown below. I have removed the element jar file name as it contained the customer name: - Java/application/lib 17/05/2013 14:19 57,809 .jar Java/util/lib 15/05/2013 12:08 443,432 antlr-2.7.6.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 559,366 commons-collections-3.1.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 60,686 commons-logging-1.1.1.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 313,898 dom4j-1.6.1.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 71,283 hibernate-commons-annotations-3.2.0.Final.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 3,123,360 hibernate-core-3.6.10.Final.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 102,661 hibernate-jpa-2.0-api-1.0.1.Final.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 644,148 javassist-3.12.1.GA.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 15,071 jta-1.1.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 489,884 log4j-1.2.17.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 2,714,189 ojdbc6-11.2.0.3.0.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 25,496 slf4j-api-1.6.1.jar 15/05/2013 12:08 10,336 slf4j-simple-1.6.6.jar 15/05/2013 12:30 7,188 xmlpull-1.1.3.1.jar 15/05/2013 12:30 24,956 xpp3_min-1.1.4c.jar Graham From: Cisco Developer Community Forums [mailto:cdicuser@developer.cisco.com] Sent: 17 May 2013 18:50 To: cdicuser@developer.cisco.com Subject: New Message from Janine Graves in Customer Voice Portal (CVP) - General Discussion - All Versions: Re: New Message from Graham Whitelam in Customer Voice Portal (CVP) - Gener Janine Graves has created a new message in the forum "General Discussion - All Versions": -------------------------------------------------------------- Are your jar files using any external libs (other than things you wrote from scratch) - like AXIS, Jaxb, etc?

Remember that the classes you deploy to util folder will not be updated when you run the update App script. I generally place third party libraries in TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib dir.

Jonathan, Routing to CVP from Outbound requires you to setup a CVP Translation Route (not used for inbound calls).

Hi Harshal, Unfortunately we don't get from Cisco a URL with the wav files - seems that such implementation are platform specific and with Cisco / CVP seems we don't have such solution. The only workaround for that is to develop your own code in order to get the the wav file locally via Submit/HTTP POST as stated in the VoiceXML 2.1 recommendation. [url=http://www.w3.org/TR/voicexml21/#sec-reco_reco]http://www.w3.org/TR/voicexml21/#sec-reco_reco[/url] "Like recordings created using the tag, utterance recordings can be submitted to a document server via HTTP POST using the namelist attribute of the , , and elements.

These are some of my very old notes. The config below is CVP 4.x with SIP and no Outbound Proxy. It’s hard for me to know what you know and what you don’t know, so just think of this as a check list 1. Create a skill group - say CVP_Outbound 2. Create a route - CVP_Outbound.rt 3. Create a call type - say OutboundXfer_CT 4. Create a call type - say Outbound_CT 5. Assume that the transfer label on your type 10 NVRU on the CUCM Routing Client is 8222222222 (not the one on the CVP.RC. Assume you have that and it's the conventional one of 8111111111) 6. Create a SIP trunk to CVP Call Server 7. Create a route pattern in UCM for 8222! associated with the SIP trunk to CVP 8. Create a Transfer to IVR Campaign - Enable IP AMD, Transfer to IVR Route Point, Terminate Tone Detect. Create the normal stuff associated with a campaign - dialer, dialer ports, query rule, import rule. Set it to power dial with 1.00 lines per "agent" (not reall any agents involved here). 9. Add the Skill Group CVP_Outbound. 10. Set the number of IVR ports (less than or equal to the number of dialer ports) 11. Set the IVR Route Point - say 67008 12. Create a corresponding dialed number on the CUCM.RC.67008 13. Map the dialed number CUCM.RC.67008 to the call type OutboundXfer_CT 14. Schedule your CVP script to play back the message (or whatever it does) against the call type OutboundXfer_CT. Modify it as described in 21 below. 15. Create a route point in CUCM and assign it an extension of 67008 16. Associate this route point with your ICM JTAPI user 17. Create an admin script - say CvpOutboundAdmin 18. Set the variable CVP_Outbound.OutboundControl = PROGRESSIVE_ONLY 19. Set the variable CVP_Outbound.OutboundPercentage = 100 20. Schedule the script to run every minute. Don't forget this part. 21. Create a reservation script called, say Outbound, which has an LAA node attached to the CVP_Outbound skill group. Schedule this against the Outbound_CT. This is for phantom calls to reserve "agents". 22. Create a dialed number say 99999 on the Dialer MR PG routing client. 23. Modify your CVP script to have a "Send To VRU" node immediately after the start. You need to get the 8222222222 label to the CUCM RC, which then calls the route point and gets the call to CVP. When the script resumes, a second implicit "Send To VRU" node returns 8111111111 and you have a static route like "8111>" to get that call leg to the voice gateway. You cannot use "Send To Originator" because the call has not been originated by the IOS gateway SIP user agent. 24. Make sure you have your customer instance defined, and associated with your NVRU, all your dialed numbers and all the NVRU scripts. Regards, Geoff

I have an administrative skill group since it is an IVR campaign that no one is logged into, but then I have another skill group that you log into and the admin script looks to see if someone in that skill group is available and then lets it run. I have it setup for one IVR port (as it is in test right now), and I have a cache setting of 20 records. Do you use CVP for transfer to IVR within CVP? Is there some dial peer in the GW that needs to be setup to make it work? Currently when using the IP IVR transfer to IVR, you have to setup a Dialed number DLR.xxxx for it to work. Do I need to do the same for the CVP route point?

RE: New Message from Jonathan Wood in Customer Voice Portal (CVP) - General

2013-05-13T22:08:22Z

You are on the right track. Did you put the route point in with the skill group name and ports in the Skill Group Selection tab of the Campaign? Regards, Geoff

Configuration for Transferring to IVR using CVP

2013-05-13T21:45:59Z

I am trying to convert one of the current outbound IP IVR campaigns that dials out to a customer and when they answer transfers them to an IVR application. Can anyone provide guidance as to how I configure the system to get it to use CVP for IVR treatment instead of using IP IVR? I tried using a CVP route point to an ICM script and setting this route point up in the Outbound Campaign setting of "After AMD and for transfer to IVR campaigns", but it just hangs up. I am on CVP 8.5
