No event is being captured

raise Exception(str(future.response))

client.add_event_listener(event_listener)
try:
while True:
time.sleep(10)
except (KeyboardInterrupt, SystemExit):
client.logoff()

this code is running without error but shows no even on the terminal when I run it

Do you have more info about the astmanager user in your /etc/asterisk/manager.conf?
I'm asking to be sure that this user can receive events.

[nouman-ux]

astmanager] ; this must be generated automatically
secret = Xn75CFbVfjRg71v
deny = 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
permit= 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.0
read = system,call,log,verbose,command,agent,user,config,command,dtmf,reporting,cdr,dialplan,originate
write = system,call,log,verbose,command,agent,user,config,command,dtmf,reporting,cdr,dialplan,originate
writetimeout = 60000
this is the settings for this user

I have even tried read=all and write = all

[ettoreleandrotognoli]

Your settings looks right for me
Do you know if the login command is completing?

I'm running it:

# ...
def event_notification(source, event):
    print(event)

client = AMIClient(**connection)
future = client.login(**login)
if future.response.is_error():
    raise Exception(str(future.response))
print(future.response)

client.add_event_listener(event_notification)
# ...

And getting this:

Response: Success
ActionID: 0
Message: Authentication accepted

Event : SuccessfulAuth -> {'Privilege': 'security,all', 'EventTV': '2022-04-18T11:44:12.568+0000', 'Severity': 'Informational', 'Service': 'AMI', 'EventVersion': '1', 'AccountID': 'admin', 'SessionID': '0x7fdeec002b60', 'LocalAddress': 'IPV4/TCP/0.0.0.0/5038', 'RemoteAddress': 'IPV4/TCP/127.0.0.1/39788', 'UsingPassword': '0', 'SessionTV': '2022-04-18T11:44:12.568+0000'}

my output is little different from you i cant see this Event thing.

Same trouble. with previous version no problem to get the event. but now no event caugth.
I have a look on code and perform some tests, and I get the event if I suppress the line in AMICLient class, connect function
self._socket.settimeout(self._timeout)

with no timeout set (as it is in previous version), events are well caught

[mmaridev]

Same here

You can workarround this problem by passing the timeout parameter to the initialization of client:

client = asterisk.ami.AMIClient(address='127.0.0.1',port=5038,timeout=None)
