FreeSWITCH package for pfSense 1.2.1 and 2.0 released. PBX or Proxy
-
HI mcrane,
I'm running pfsense 1.2.2 and i can't install freswitch correctly. I't installs all the gui components but fails to install binaries. I manually deleted the pckg according to this thread , then reinstalling , removing and reinstalling again but keeps failling with this errors :Warning: fopen(/usr/local/freeswitch/scripts/recordings.js): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/local/pkg/freeswitch.inc on line 197 Warning: fwrite()
tons off those errors at the end of the installation process. I have tried to create manually "/usr/local/freeswitch" just to test what happends with no luck. The directory is still empty .
Has this been reported? or has not been tested on 1.2.2
Tks a lot and keep up the good work .
p.s.: Sorry I'm not very fluent in english

Has this been reported? or has not been tested on 1.2.2
I can't help you much, but I do know it works on 1.2.2. Freeswitch runs ok on my current 1.2.1 system, and it ran even better on my 1.2.2 system.
Both systems I've installed and even reinstalled, and never had your errors.
Sorry can't be of more help than that. -
I note that mod_openzap.so is missing in latest installation.
Next version will have mod_openzap.so file but in order for it to work zaptel has to be compiled into the FreeBSD kernel which it isn't at this time. I've worked on doing that but so far have not succeeded.

I'm not exactly sure why your package is failing to install correctly. Is your firewall behind a proxy? or a Firewall that is removing some of the data stream?

Shouldn't we just install from port version? I managed to install Zaptel from freebsd port on pfsense 1.2.2 Dev ISO and have it started and detect by adding script file in rc.d, similar to freeswitch.sh but start zaptel instead.
-
The dev iso has the tools necessary to compile a port. Standard pfsense install does not have those tools. If I or someone else can come up with a process that adds the compiling tools back into pfsense then I will add it to the FreeSWITCH package or create a package specifically for compiling ports.

mcrane. How do we uninstall freeswitch so that it does not save any settings?
I'm having issues with my setup. With changing the internal Ip settings, the phones can register to freeswitch, but I can't get it to talk to each other (dial another extension and I get a couple of tones and goodbye). I still thing it's that it shows my wan ip as internal…
Anyways, I wanted to uninstall freeswitch, and then reinstall from scratch. The problem is that when I reinstall, it puts back all my settings.
I even uninstalled, rebooted, and ssh into the box to see that the backup file in /tmp does not exist. It still gets the settings!One last question. Can you see any issues with this package and a provider that uses a non-standard port? vbuzzer uses port 80.
thanks!

Diagnostics -> Backup Restore
Download the configuration then edit it and remove references to any tag that says <freeswitch*<br>Then restore the configuration.One last question. Can you see any issues with this package and a provider that uses a non-standard port? vbuzzer uses port 80.
Try putting the domain:port when you are setting up the gateway's proxy.</freeswitch*<br>

pfSense FreeSWITCH package version 0.8.1 is now available.
1. It includes FreeSWITCH version 1.0.3 revision 12228.
2. Fixed a minor install error.
3. Added new dependency files that were required for 1.0.3.
4. Created a backup directory to store a copy of the original config. /usr/local/freeswitch/conf.rev.orig -

yayyyy!
0.8.0 went BOOM!!!Update:
Actually both my systems went boom on even the 0.8.1 update.. Won't start up due to line errors on freeswitch.incHere is some more info from the status page….
unable to connect to 68.XXX.XXX.XXX:8021 in /usr/local/pkg/freeswitch.inc on line 97 Warning: socket_set_blocking(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /usr/local/pkg/freeswitch.inc on line 98 Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to 192.168.0.3:8021 in /usr/local/pkg/freeswitch.inc on line 97 Warning: socket_set_blocking(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /usr/local/pkg/freeswitch.inc on line 98 no handleUpdate 2:
ok, I crashed my test machine by editing the backup and restoring (that's why it's a test machine).
Anyways, fresh install of pfsense 1.2.2
Freeswitch installs with the above errors.So I'd say it's temporarily broken.. Do not update!!

After update to FreeSWITCH 0.8.1:
Service Freeswitch does not start and nothing is written to the log.

I am having the same issues.

No issues here on 2.0 (other than the unrelated php xml bugs we're fighting in 2.0).

I can confirm this behavior. When attempting to start FreeSWITCH as root from the console (module version 0.8.1 on pfSense 1.2.2), it fails to start saying that it can't lock the pid file (/usr/local/freeswitch/log/freeswitch.pid, IIRC). Removing this file or creating it ahead of time with world-writable permissions had no effect.
I upgraded pfSense to the latest 1.2.3 nightly, and this cleared up the FreeSWITCH issue; I can now start it from the console as well as manage it from the webConfig services interface. So I'd hazard a guess that its some sort of dependency issue with 1.2.2 that goes away in 1.2.3 (and presumably also 2.0).

Interesting just upgraded to latest nightly snapshot and still no freeswitch for me..
-
So I guess the common theme is
1. If you are running 1.2.1 or 1.2.2. DO NOT UPGRADE TO THE LATEST VERSION. Until we hear back from mcrane
2. If you are running 1.2.3 or 2.0 take your own risk if you want. It may/may not work.
3. If you upgraded already and it's crashed your freeswitch, then we are out of luck until mcrane comes up with something..wait…

The system I'm running is working fine on pfSense 1.2.3.
I'm currently on IRC at #pfsense-freeswitch. Those with problems please contact me there and I will help you get your systems working. As the problem is identified I will get it fixed in the package.

I updated my test 1.2.2 machine to 1.2.3 (today's build) and freeswitch was a no-go just like 1.2.2
I then updated to 2.0 and it looked like it was running (service was running) but I could not get to it from the web admin page. That does not say much to me, as when I rebooted I could not get to even the login page. I count that as a pfsense issue.
I then reinstalled a fresh copy of 1.2.3 (not upgrade as in 1st attempt). Still no go (even after reboot).
Service won't start…
So it's either that some 1.2.3 build let freeswitch work, while the new build does not. That or it's related to a specific hardware that it's working/not working.
I don't have too much of specialized hardware. Main pfsense is an AMD Sempron LE-1150, 1 VIA onboard NIC, 1 Intel PIC NIC.
Other test machine is an ATOM 330 with 2 realtek NICS (yah they suck, but it's a test machine)Maybe you can go back to older and freeswitch build until the 0.8 bugs are worked out?

Running 2.0-ALPHA-ALPHA built on Thu Jan 15 23:00:25 EST 2009 FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE-p2 still here.
latest freeswitch package installed fine for me. Running now…
