#!/usr/bin/python
import sys
import os
from agi import AGI
def test_call(agi = None,text = ""):
    agi.say_alpha(text, "#")
    agi.hangup()
if __name__ == "__main__":
    text = 'abcdefr'
    agi = AGI()
    test_call(agi,text)

and i have one file agi.py which is get from pyst lib.

when i try to call to this agi i get this issue

Executing [123@from-internal:1] Answer("SIP/12345-00000016", "") in new stack

i see that i have this file in /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin which 777 permission.

Please suggest to get this basic script work.

thank all in advance

i see that i have missing some package in ubuntu server. I have move this script to elastix server and it works find. But in ubuntu server, which packages i have missed ? — voipmanvn
Are you sure the file is in the right location? Because the No such file or directory tells you it can't find the file. And is the script executable? — Jap Mul

There can be 2 reason for such error:

no file /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/test.py in that location or it not accessable by asterisk for some reason - linux general permission issue.
file /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/test.py, but no some libraries(python give same error). This one is more likly. Try execute script manual from asterisk user and see what it say.

Recomendation: Use FastAGI instead of AGI.
