      I think the issue I am having is RTP and NAT no playing nicely I need someting to accept and forward the RTP packets that NAT is not expecting.

        Forwarding rules may do this.  I had success doing this another way, see http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,12830.0.html, but I don't know if pieces of that may work for you…

          I have fresh install of pfSense 1.2.2 & fresh install of FreeSWITCH 0.8.3.4.
          FreeSWITCH don't start.

          Here details:

          
# cd /usr/local/freeswitch/bin/
# ./freeswitch
Cannot lock pid file /usr/local/freeswitch/log/freeswitch.pid.
# rm /usr/local/freeswitch/log/freeswitch.pid
# ./freeswitch
Cannot lock pid file /usr/local/freeswitch/log/freeswitch.pid.
# ps aux | grep freeswitch

            Sorry uploaded the new build but forgot to rename and replace the old one. Remove the package and reload it and you should get the new version that will work.

              Hi,

              Just for the record: FreeSWITCH is now running here (hasn't been under the latest 2-3 versions).
              Am using 0.8.3.4 on pfsense 1.2.2

              Cheers,

                Just a report:

                My provider is getting this line from me now (instead of the standard   sip:1234567890@myipaddy:5080;transport=udp)

                sip:gw+Voip Line 1@myipaddy:5080;transport=udp

                pfsense 1.2.3  package 0.8.3.1

                Was playing some more last night.   "The Voip Line 1" comes from my gateway name. Dont know where the gw+ comes from. Is there a way to fix this?

                Found this regarding my issue.  http://www.nabble.com/Contact-header-on-INVITE-td22376608.html

                In case anyone else runs into it…  :)

                  The 0.8.3.4 package is 1.2.2 safe with no need for PHP work around. It also fixes the recording glitch where 2 seconds of recording got tagged on the end. Easy upgrade no issues, great work Mcrane!

                    I also have an issue where if I call in and the calls goes to voicemail, I cannot leave a message.  As I talk into the phone to leave the message, it stops and says it is below minimum record length, even thought I am still talking.  This is not an issue if I am calling from extension to extension.

                    Hey, I had the same exact issue with voicemail, just though I'd let you know, placing an "Answer" action immediately before the voicemail action fixed things right up for me. It's odd because it was working before without it, but it's an easy enough fix.

                      Although I am not sure, it doesn't seem as if anyone's aware of the issues in the recent several 2.0AA snapshots, with installing FreeSwitch.  Each time I've tried to install it, it hangs at:

                      Configuring package components…
                      Additional files... libcurl.so.5

                      At this point, the whole web-gui hangs, reboot results in errors regarding curl (specifically: PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/local/lib/php/20060613/curl.so' - /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.5: invalid file format in Unknown on line 0), nothing else works correctly until removal of both of these files and a reload of the 2.0AA full update...

                      Not sure if this is best posted here, or on the 2.0AA Problems support section, but it seems to be the only package having this sort of trouble...

                      edit:  for the addition of error details...

                        pfsense 2.0 package installer seems to have a problem with requesting remote files using libcurl. So for those that really want it I have created a manual install. That is php code that can be run from Diagnostics -> Command -> PHP Execute.

                        The manual install php code is attached to this forum post but you have to be logged into the forum to see it.

                          Mcrane is SO far beyond a Hero Member!!  The code, attached to his previous post, worked wonders getting FS running on the newest snap of 2.0AA.

                          What kinda' steaks do ya' like with yer' brew, mcrane?  We'll make a BBQ of it!!

                            Some more questions.

                            Is anyone using CallForwarding?  I'm not sure it's working for me.  That is to say, it is certainly not working but I'm not sure if it is the phone (Grandstream 2020 and Linksys 962) or if I am doing something wrong.  Is it possible to enable with a code like "*72"

                            Also - DISA - is there something precanned to get this to work or should I just be looking at the freeswitch.org examples?

                            This example on freeswitch wiki looks good to me but I haven't tried it yet:

                            http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Examples_disa.js

                            Thanks for any opinions.

                              When I've done it found that on the Internal profile if aggressive nat detection is enabled it messes up call forwarding to other extensions in some situations. Even with it disabled certain situations call forwarding to an extension has directed the call directly to voice mail. You could troubleshoot the problem using /usr/local/freeswitch/bin/./fs_cli and try to get additional help from #freeswitch IRC channel. Or I have also created a followme.js (simultaneous or in succession) file that could be used to direct calls to more than one number. I'm planning on extending it soon so that you can dial from an extension and get numbers that are chosen through the phone's dial pad. At this moment the file would have to manually be changed. http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Examples_followme.js

                              I wrote that example DISA you linked to so my opinion about it is likely biased. Tonight (technically morning now) I updated the DISA example with a few improvements, improved the instructions on the FreeSWITCH wiki, and then added a link to the recordings that are needed for the DISA script.

                              Hope that helps.

                                You did pretty much everything other than sign in and configure it for me!

                                I'll let you know how I make out.

                                Thanks!

                                  Real n00b questions here but I can't get x-lite to register, all I get is:

                                  Registration error: 408 - Request Timeout

                                  I've got this in X-Lite:

                                  Display name: FreeSwitch
                                  User name: 2001
                                  Password: 2001
                                  Authorization user name: 2001
                                  Domain: 10.x.x.1 (pfSense box)

                                  Checked Register with domain

                                  What I've done on the pfSense box is:

                                  Set domain var to 10.x.x.1
                                  Added extension 2001 with above info
                                  Changed Default Area Code (not trying to go to an external service, just internal between clients right now)
                                  The only dialplan is Recordings

                                  Everything under status tab says Disconnected, goodbye….

                                  Service says it's running.

                                  I've no idea what to do at this point.

                                    By default FreeSWITCH binds to the WAN IP so if you make xlite register to the WAN IP then it will work fine. If your WAN uses DHCP then I suggest setting up Dynamic DNS inside pfsense and then set the domain variable on the 'Var' tab. Restart FreeSWITCH and point xlite to the domain name.

                                      I tried that and what I get is the same error and this in the log:

                                      Connection Closed
                                      Connection Open from 69.x.x.x:44856
                                      Session complete, waiting for children

                                      That IP is my WAN connection. I have a multi-wan setup with a WAN2 connection and port based routing going out. Could that be messing with it or the rules?

                                        If you have Multi-WAN on pfSense then you need to set up a static route to force all voip traffic to the correct WAN IP. To see which one it is registered to you need look at the Status page near the top. There you will see the IP address that FreeSWITCH is bound to.

                                          I think something else must be broken then. All the status page has is:

                                          sofia status

                                          Disconnected, goodbye.
                                          See you at ClueCon! http://www.cluecon.com/

                                          sofia status profile internal

                                          See you at ClueCon! http://www.cluecon.com/

                                          Then show channels and calls with the same message, backup/restore and logs.

                                          The logs are consistent with my WAN IP on the "connection open from" lines, so I assume that's correct.

                                          How will a static route only redirect voip traffic, wouldn't I need an outbound rule for that?

                                          Sorry to be a pain. But thanks for helping!

                                            That normally means FreeSWITCH is not started go to Status -> Services and start FreeSWITCH. If it is started then it is likely getting confused by the multi-WAN.
