Asterisk 1.8 package

Appears to be here:
http://svn.digium.com/svn/dahdi/freebsd/trunk/drivers/dahdi/

Unfortunately the project to port DAHDI to FreeBSD was completed in Oct 2010, after the 8.1 release so it is not in the 8.1 ports tree. You could try the version from 8-stable but it's a complex package so the chances of it working seem quite small. Backup everything first because you'll probably cause all sort of problems! ;)


pkg_add -r ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/mirror/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-stable/Latest/dahdi.tbz

When you say 'not even listed in dmesg' are you saying it doesn't even appear as a 'none' device? (one that has no driver attached)

hi everybody i'm miguelshady new pfsense user's
I have a real problem with asterisk services
I use pfsense 2.0.1 and I installed the asterisk package, statut state asterisk stpopped and I can't start services or find files configuration where located in usr / local / etc, as described in the topic, I also install siproxy and FreeSwitch, I would like to allow a user to call through asterisk server with their sofphones after a captive portal authentication
thank you for helping and sorry for the quality of my english

marcelloc

Configure on service at once. siproxy, freeswitch and asterisk will try to bind on the same port.

Marcelo,

In order to edit a configuration file do we start with the xyz.conf-dist files and write to xyz.conf files?
How do you want or envision configuration to be done?

marcelloc

Current package helps only on installing and monitoring only, a future release will include asterisk-gui.

Edit/rename config files using console, filer package or scp for example.

att,
Marcello Coutinho

For those who is following this thread, I've submitted asterisk-gui to freebsd ports. Since it's approved, I can add it to this package.

Guys thanks for the awesome work!

I've a pfsense 2.01 on a nanobsd platform running asterisk package successfully.

While I've the voicemail for only one extension configured, I wanna integrate it with my google IMAP account.

I was reading details on howto here http://www.asteriskdocs.org/en/3rd_Edition/asterisk-book-html-chunk/voicemail_IMAP_integration.html

I've configured voicemail.conf successfully and module reload app_voicemail.so does not give me any errors but I still dont see any voice mails coming up on my IMAP. I'm wondering if the IMAP toolkit was compiled into this built of asterisk. Being a no-pro, any heads up on how to check and proceed would be appreciable.

Hi all,

1st post on this forum, so this may not be the place, but thanks so marcelloc for his hard work and tireless support.
I've been using pfSense for about a year now, and have discovered "real" network administration, it has opened up for me many possibilities for me, learning and achieving so much I can't ever be so thankful !

Anyway, here is my problem with this module today:
Since GUI upgrade to 2.0.2, service fails to start:


Dec 22 12:06:03 	root: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/asterisk: WARNING: failed to start asterisk
Dec 22 12:06:01 	php: /status_services.php: The command '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/asterisk stop' returned exit code '1', the output was 'Stopping asterisk /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/lib/libssl.so.6: unsupported file layout'

Any ideas ?
Thanks !

@francois13e:

'Stopping asterisk /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/lib/libssl.so.6: unsupported file layout'

In most cases it means wrong arch on libs, for example, amd64 libs on a i386 system.

Did you upgraded i386 to amd64???

francois13e

Thanks for your prompt reply.
Ah, that may well be the case !
Would uninstalling the module and reinstalling correct this, or may I run into other bugs doing so ?

Are you doing it with pkg_add on console/ssh?

I usually do 99% through the GUI. BTW, I'm using full install, if that helps.
I now remember I had to use i386 installing 2.0.1, as I had found incompatibilities with my motherboard at install (intel D2500cc), VGA problems were worse on x64. Maybe I should have used a serial setup, but am really not familiar with that.

I'm just going to uninstall reinstall the package through GUI, see if that helps, and report here. If it breaks, I'll try to reinstall 2.0.2 i386 and load previous configuration.

francois13e

A simple uninstall / install from GUI fixed it.
Sorry for the trouble, I should have tried that right away.

Thanks again for your contributions to the project, they're priceless !

Any idea when these will be out of beta stage and available via the package section in the webgui? (asterisk 1.8.x and the asterisk-gui 2.x)
I am currently on 2.0.2

Thanks.

Mafioso,

The port submit of asterisk-gui is still pending on freebsd ports. :(

m4f1050

Good luck and I hope they hurry up because I am not installing Asterisk until the gui is there or altogether. :)

asterix

Ditto. I am totally confused with the current package and how to configure it. I am a GUI guy and would love to have GUI for this package for me to start taking advantage of it.

Hello,
a newbie question…

I'm yet another cheapskate with a TDM400P PCI analog telephony card doing 'nowt in an old box...and wondering if the zaptel/DHADI route (even with the apparent echo issues...) is worth pursuing and how to get some stable drivers to try on a production box (I know!!).

I've been looking around
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/FreeBSD%20zaptel looked interesting but seems a dead end...

The card is recognised by pciconf -lv :
none2@pci0:1:8:0: class=0x078000 card=0x0003b100 chip=0x0001e159 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Tiger Jet Network Inc'
device = 'Multiple devices use this ID: General Purpose I/O Controller'
class = simple comms

but doesn't show up in dmesg

Is there hope? or is it (very likely) easier to erm... Ubuntu it?

Any pointers very welcome ;D

marcelloc

To run asterisk cards on freebsd will need it drivers and dahdi. I do not recomend it on pfsense.

Thanks - I had to ask the question… there seems to have been some activity - but quite a while ago and the hardware has moved on.

I guess I'll try a Draytech VoIP router to handle analog and see how I get on with that.... TDM400P >=ebay
