Asterisk 1.8 package
-
Why don't you use edit configuration tab? ???

I am running the Asterisk 1.8 package on pfsense 2.1 and have the following issues:
Everytime I reboot pfsense the following (demo) configuration text is added to sip.conf
==>
[301]
;demo extension for pfSense
type=friend
defaultuser=301
insecure=port,invite
secret=1234
regexten=301
host=dynamic
context=default[302]
;demo extension for pfSense
type=friend
defaultuser=302
insecure=port,invite
secret=1234
regexten=302
host=dynamic
context=default<==
Everytime I reboot pfsense my call history is lost
Everytime I reboot pfsense my Asterisk log file is empty
Everytime I reboot pfsense my personal voicemail message is goneAre there any sollutions to my above problems
Thanks in advance
Kr,

any news or suggestions ? ::)

Not sure about voicemail but I keep logs and cdr after reboot. Still using 301/302 but no changes to them and 303+ externals are fine, no re-addition of demo extensions.
Working nicely on fresh 2.1 with raid1 (shouldn't matter). I have 2 lans on LAN and OPT1 and set localnet for both to pfsense's IP on those nets. Also doing 1:1 on WAN VIP to OPT2 so thinking of trying to get SIP to pass through tot that on a theoretical setup where pfsense handles some lans and passes an external IP to another lan that has it's own asterisk for whatever reason or just one phone talking to another outside asterisk or provider that has to be on 5060 as well.
Is there any explanation as to why jitterbuffer is on for PFSENSE's asterisk? I get why allowguest isn't… just curious about jitterbuffer.
-
Well I finaly figured it out
In /usr/local/pkg
there is the a file called asterisk.inc
It contains the following code wich is causing my issue of the demo extentions being added after a reboot==>
if (strpos($script_file,'demo extension for pfSense') === false) { //first check if already added…
$add_demo_extension = << <eof<br>[301]
;demo extension for pfSense
type=friend
defaultuser=301
insecure=port,invite
secret=1234
regexten=301
host=dynamic
context=default[302]
;demo extension for pfSense
type=friend
defaultuser=302
insecure=port,invite
secret=1234
regexten=302
host=dynamic
context=defaultEOF;
$script_file .= $add_demo_extension;
file_put_contents($script, $script_file, LOCK_EX);
}
<==Please fix this in the next release
Thanks in advanceKr

As a workaround, all you have to do is keep the comment line "demo extension for pfSense" present in the conf file, but delete the demos themselves. The script only checks for the string "demo extension for pfSense", if it's present, it doesn't add anything.
I can't seem to reproduce this problem in my setup though. If I delete the whole thing, it keeps it deleted after reboot too.

Hello,
I have a specific question concerning logging as my Asterisk seems to often miss the connection to my VoIP provider.
How could I send the Asterisk logging to a syslog server (I have one running in my house) ?Another solution could be to send the logs to a USB stick. But how ?
Tx for your help !
-
no one ?
-
To save logs to the USB stick I think it would be enough to just change the logdir path in asterisk.conf```
astlogdir => /var/log/asteriskFor a remote syslog server you can try some tips found on the internet: http://www.savelono.com/linux/configuring-asterisk-for-a-remote-syslog-server.html -
Over here on pfSense-2.1-RELEASE-4g-amd64-nanobsd_vga after package installation console outputs:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /usr/local/pkg/asterisk.inc on line 389

I never used pbx_ael.so module. I guess it depends on something, which is missing. Perhaps googling on the error message could give some hints…

I just upgraded my pFsense to the latest 2.1.2 release….
After the reboot & successfull update pFsense gave me the following message "Packages are currently being reinstalled in the background."Nice !
I have 2 packages....a small one (CRON) and Asterisk.
The problem is the size of the new Asterisk package that is automatically installed !!!!!- previous release - asterisk-1.8.25.0-i386.pbi -> 41MB
- current release - asterisk-1.8.26.1-i386.pbi -> 108MB
At the end of the installation Asterisk burns 580MB of space which leaves my 1GB CF card....voiceless...as my VoIP installation.
In fact even with a 2GB CF card it has been problematic for me to install it.
88% space used & installation goes forever. Then reboot, install the package again (in fact it will just run the installation phase not the download) and finally....it works ! But my card is nearly full with 88% of 907M used.Is there a reason for such a size increase ?
What would be the way for installing the older release instead ?Thanks for your help.
-
Hmm…
I also noticed that on my 4G CF card the space usage was higher after the upgrade, but I thougt that was because I was also upgrading architecture from i386 to x64. Your post shows me that I was most probably wrong.
As far as I can remember the older Asterisk had some security issues, so the upgraded version is recommended to be used. However it's indeed surprising more than twice disk space to be used.
The older asterisk had quite a lot of non-functional modules, because of many missing dependencies. Maybe here these were fixed, that would explain the increased disk space requirerements.I don't know.
However, I suggest to move to 4GB card on NanoBSD...

As a workaround, all you have to do is keep the comment line "demo extension for pfSense" present in the conf file, but delete the demos themselves. The script only checks for the string "demo extension for pfSense", if it's present, it doesn't add anything.
I have the same behaviour here and using your workaround does the trick.
But it is annoying….
