      Just tried the package install on a vanilla nanobsd box, unfortunately the GUI didn't appear in the dropdown menu. Also tried to access the filenames directly (by /status_asterisk.php for example) - got 404 - Not Found.
      It appears though well in Services status.

        I'll try on a clean install to check.

        Can you reinstall the package just in case?

        I've also renamed the files using asterisk as prefix.

        asterisk_cmd.php
        asterisk_log.php
        asterisk.xml
        asterisk.inc
        .
        .
        .

          I reinstalled again on a fresh system. Still not appearing in the menu.  :-\

          By calling /asterisk_cmd.php directly, it works.

          I would suggest to automatically add my tweaks for Asterisk 1.8 if on a nanobsd system - otherwise the log will be full of errors due to the ro system.

          I explicitly mean the [directories] section in asterisk.conf and modules in modules.conf. And ofcourse the symlink needed for Master.csv - the call log.
          Adding these will create an absolutely error-free installation on nanobsd.

            oops, in directories section of asterisk.conf I see this:

            astdbdir => /tmptmptmptmpvar/db/asterisk

            and the directories required are not created in the filesystem (/var/log/asterisk/), nor the symlink, just checked.

                  I'd love to. Is there a tutorial somewhere about this, as I'm not familiar about it at all.

                      Hi Marcello,
                        just for curiosity, how does this package work in a CARP environment? Ok I can point the LAN shared IP from the VOIP phones in the company (so only the Master box receives connections from the phone), but do both boxes try to registrate to the VOIP provider (the box currently working as Master and the one working as Slave)?

                      Thanks,
                      Michele

                        That's a good point.

                        In an outbound scenario it may work with carp as clients will reauth with asterisk.

                        For inbound calls, you can test configuring asterisk to listening on carp ips and see if backup asterisk will not crash.

                          well, I am also worry about Asterisk try to register to the VOIP provider, then the VOIP provider will try to contact both boxes for an incoming call… I don't know if I can test that in the real environment, I will coordinate with my colleague that follows the telephony services in my company and try to imagine how we can manage a try. Now we use Freeswitch on a server in our DMZ network...

                            In theory backup box will not be able to register as it will not have the configured ip on it.

                              I made changes, comitted, named "Updated asterisk package to remove errors in the log, cosmetic GUI fixes". The question is, when will they appear when reinstalling the package?

                                        In this case please pull the first one in, I'll do some tests, and afterwards I'll push next ones if needed following.

                                            I discovered further issues related to the package approach, but cannot go further until commits are pulled in (to see if I'm on the right track or not).

                                            I need to learn about how daemon's logging works in pfSense - maybe we should use a similar approach in asterisk's case.
