      Yes, they are there…

      More precisely in /usr/pbi/asterisk-i386/var/log/asterisk/

      try to create a symlink to /var/log/asterisk

        I'd modified the paths of the PHPs. They are hardcoded for version 2.0.

        Thank you very much…

          Hi again,

          finally with an Asterisk up and running on pfSense 2.1 beta1.

          I'm trying to enable fax sending and receiving with res_fax.so and res_fax_digium.so.

          I've already registered my box with Digium's register method explained in Digiums site but theres a lib missing when I do module load res_fax_digium.so.

          Here is the output:

          There in no comments about this at Digium's site.

          Does anyone succeded on making fax module work on pfSense?

          Thanks…/markster@digium.com

            Hello,
            I'm testing asterisk on pfsense since some weeks. It's very stable :)
            Thank you for this great work !

            I have 3 pfsense with an IPSEC vpn :
            site A : 192.168.1.0
            site B : 192.168.2.0 - with an pika warp / freepbx asterisk
            site C : 192.168.3.0 - with your package asterisk on pfsense.

            I would like to connect from site A to site C with a SIP client. Test with zoiper.

            zoiper site A to asterisk site B : ok. it works :)
            zoiper site A to asterisk pfsense site C : ko. it doesn't works :(

            On states pfsense, of the site A & C, i have :
            NO_TRAFFIC:SINGLE

            IPSEC VPN rules are corrects. * for all settings.
            what should i do ?
            thank you :)

                I see that the GUI of the package needs some work to be compatible to 2.1. I'll soon post the necessary modifications.

                  Is there a place where I could push the modifications needed for this plugin to work with 2.1? Like GitGub, etc…?

                    I've just modified my config file editor page, with complete backup and restore options.

                    I've also optimized the installation to properly run on NanoBSD systems. I'm going to update them accordingly at https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense-packages/tree/master/config/asterisk

                      Hi,

                      this post refer to i thread i started because this the GUI was not working properly on PfSense 2.1 release
                      http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=66660.0

                      i find out at the moment that two file of the GUI need to be modified to point to the new location for the package:

                      asterisk_calls.php
                      path need to be modified to :
                      "/usr/pbi/asterisk-amd64/var/log/asterisk/cdr-csv/Master.csv"
                      or
                      "/usr/pbi/asterisk-i386/var/log/asterisk/cdr-csv/Master.csv"
                      depending of architecture instead of :
                      "/var/log/asterisk/cdr-csv/Master.csv"

                      asterisk_log.php
                      path need to be modified to :
                      "/usr/pbi/asterisk-amd64/var/log/asterisk/messages"
                      or
                      "/usr/pbi/asterisk-i386/var/log/asterisk/messages"
                      depending of architecture instead of :
                      "/var/log/asterisk/messages"

                      for edit config file, the new path is "/usr/pbi/asterisk-amd64/etc/asterisk" for the config file

                      i don't know where to go to do the modification or if someone have to do it at my place (never did it before) but this make the package working on PfSense 2.1 . It is working flawlessly for me for the moment but i have to mod the php file each time an update is done on the package.

                        Work is in progress just now with modifications to address these issues.

                        Actually paths will be corrected on the file system to point to writable locations (as /usr/pbi/…. is not writable on NanoBSD), symlinks will be used and Asterisk configuration files will be updated accordingly on first install.

                        Please be patient, soon the update will be available in the packages list.

                          Package update v0.3 should be online soon.

                          If you already installed asterisk package on v2.1, I suggest to start from scratch by creating a fresh install of pfSense, or at least uninstall the complete Asterisk package, remove these directories by hand, reboot and reinstall Asterisk package:

                          Spool directory:             /var/spool/asterisk
Log directory:               /var/log/asterisk
Run/Sockets directory:       /var/run/asterisk
ASTDB:                       /var/db/asterisk/astdb

                            Note to users upgrading from pfSense v2.0.x:

                            Asterisk package was converted to PBI, thus the system file locations for it have been changed. That means that the asterisk.conf file on the 2.0.x and 2.1 will have different [directories] sections. Please revise the directory paths on the fresh install of Asterisk on v2.1, and correct them manually before restoring the configuration from 2.0.x.

                            On simpler scenarios, where only SIP protocol is used, the first approach to upgrade Asterisk would be to actually install it fresh on a v2.1 box, and replace sip.conf and extensions.conf files with the previous ones. All the other config files can be left in their default state if you didn't modify them earlier.

                              i'll have to reinstall my setup from scratch on 2.1 cause my HDD is failing

                              if i have little time, i'll post the name of the file and what to temporary modify as a workaround until the package is completely updated.

                              you do a great job here folks :)

                              thanks

                                It's already done, devs from pfSense need to pull it in to the servers…

                                    is the last update Asterisk 1.8 pkg v0.3 broken for you ?

                                    • does'nt want to start via web GUI (via status -> service or via Asterisk command page).
                                    • asterisk log page is broken (parse error)
                                    • it start manually but extension won't register (no modification in conf file from 1.8 pkg v0.2)

                                    EDIT :
                                    nevermind for extension not registering

                                    BUT
                                    still need to start manually via shell ( asterisk -C /usr/pbi/asterisk-amd64/etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf )

                                    and log page is missing a ")" on line 70

                                      Yes, I've fixed them yesterday evening, pushed them to the server, still waiting to be pulled in.

                                        Hi roby,

                                        I've tested it on 2.1 and code was not working correctly.

                                        I did some changes and at least on 2.1 it's working fine now.

                                        Check if it's ok on nanobsd too.
