[Astlinux-users] Astlinux 6.3, 6.4, 6.5 Strange issue

2009-05-04 Thread Cleveland Electronic Services
Hi All,

 

I hope someone out there could assist me on the following issue I am having,
which is starting to really drive me nuts (specially 2.). 

 

1.  I did a fresh install of Astlinux 6.3 and all worked very well, when
6.4 was released I did an update and this too went well accept that I could
not access the Asterisk GUI looking through the files in /mnt/kd/asterisk I
found the http.conf file missing after the upgrade so I replace the file
with my back and then all worked well, I could then access the Asterisk GUI.
I had the same issue when upgrading from 6.4 to 6.5 too so it seems a common
problem when upgrading from one version to another, so in my second system
before doing an update I renamed the http.conf file to something else once
the update is completed I then renamed it back.

2.  Here is the problem which is driving me up the wall, in version
6.3,6.4  6.5, I can access the Astlinux GUI, Putty etc ok, but if I access
the Asterisk GUI and just have a look around and close it, I can never
access the Astlinux GUI or putty thereafter, but can access the Asterisk GUI
ok, I have tried rebooting the unit several times to no avail, the only way
to get it to work is remove the power from the unit wait a min or so and
repower the unit once it all come up ok I can then access the Astlinux GUI
and Putty ok. I can repeat this on both my test systems every time so it is
not an isolated problem how could this be fixed?.

 

Appreciate all your help.

[Astlinux-users] Astlinux 0.6.3 New Installation (Information)

2009-03-10 Thread Cleveland Electronic Services
Hi All,

 

I am starting to document my Installation of Astlinux 0.6.3 which is based
on a Alix 1c. It is based on my setup but could be used as a guide for most
installations. If anybody could contribute any information please do so and
I will add it along as I go.

 

Hope this helps someone else.

Post away You don't need my permission!!
One puzzle I never solved is the need to load the macro application. I know
my use of the 1.2 version  is unusual, and wonder if something else I said
to no load caused that, but never explored it. 
The systems I have built use the macro quite a bit, so the problem
immediately 
became obvious

Cleve,
 
You can either ignore the warnings or disable the modules that are trying to
load (that you're not using).  
 
If you look at /etc/asterisk/modules.conf, you'll see several modules
listed.
 
In your case, you would want to noload res_smdi.so and chan_misdn.so since
it doesn't look like you're using those.
 
  

I no load a whole host of unused modules.
Somewhere, many moons ago, I found a posting on one of the lists that had
suggestions. If modules.conf is set to autoload then one can no load
these, as well as skinny, mgcp, musiconhold if you aren't using it and a
raft of others.
Anyone interested I can post my minimal load.
Also on some versions, I found that the application macro wasn't loading,
and had to specify that to load. Never figured out why.

Not sure why you're seeing RED ALARM for dahdi (which is really zaptel, but
Digium made the change to call it dahdi even if we're still using zaptel...)
 
  

In my experience, if FXO ports on a TDM400 aren't connected to a CO to see
battery, they will give a RED alarm.

Re: [Astlinux-users] Can't hear phone ring in my cell headset when calling my Astlinux box

Darrick is perfectly correct, It is not an issue with Astlinux but in the
different versions of Asterisk, I have a fair few Asterisk installs running
1.4.21.1 some of the settings/configs that work well, will not work on
1.4.23.1 unfortunately you have to make some changes. I am sure this is
Asterisk's way of building up or you could say preparing for migration to
Asterisk 1.6, we went through a similar phase with Asterisk 1.2 to 1.4.

  Asterisk has changed between 1.4.21 and 1.4.23.1.

If you want to send me your config files, I can put them on a test box

 The changes that were made between Astlinux 0.6.2 and 0.6.3 should not
 have any negative affect on a working Asterisk 1.4.x configuration.  If
 you're upgrading from an Asterisk 1.2.x version, then several things may
 need to change.
 
 If I call my home phone running on this Soekris Astlinux box, I can't
 hear the ringing in my cell phone. It just makes a click and then
 after 4 rings my answering machine will pick up.
 
 Hold the phone!  Why would you have your answering machine and the 
 Astlinux box on the same line?  That may be confusing things.  Unplug 
 the answering machine and try again.  Also what Zaptel hardware are you 
 using?  You're really leaving out some key pieces of information.
 
 Phisicaly the phone in my house does ring but I just can't hear the
 ring in my headset when calling

 I did test this with the previous Astlinux and works fine and I did
 test it with ISO (astlinux-0.6.3-geni586.iso) image running on a
 laptop using the same very configuration files from the USB
 tocken I even re-installed Astlinux from scratch
 
 I would look closely at the Asterisk configuration files on the net4801 
 device.

Hi Darrick,

I have all the same files that were there in /mnt/kd/asterisk.. I have not
deleted anything at all. What was strange is that it worked right upto the
point where I applied your solution to get the TDM card to work at boot up
and since the Asterisk web gui does not work anymore.

 Hi Philip,
 
 Thanks for your reply, I did run what you said at the very beginning and
yes
 it worked, but bombed out when I did a reboot or powerup, the only
solution
 which has been rock solid is what Darrick suggested, I have now done
several
 reboots and powerup to make sure and it works perfect, now waiting for a
 solution why my Asterisk GUI is not coming up at all.

What files do you have in /mnt/kd/asterisk/ ?  Did you delete any of 
those files?

I have a clean install (new system) that works just fine.

http://192.168.200.112:8088/asterisk/static/config/index.html

There may be some problems with the asterisk-gui which is why we don't 
include a direct link to that from the web interface.  Feel free to use 
it, but don't be surprised if things break.  Someone on the list is 
working on a possible fix which may help out and would be included in a 
future release.

[Astlinux-users] Astlinux 0.6.3 Some strange issues please help

2009-03-01 Thread Cleveland Electronic Services
Hi All,

 

I finally took the plunge and installed the net5501 img onto a 1 GB CF,
which runs on an Alix1c board I have experience the following.

 

When I try to run create UnionFS I with the following method.

 

pbx ~ # fdisk /dev/hda

 

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 1986.

There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,

and could in certain setups cause problems with:

1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)

2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs

   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

 

Command (m for help): n

Command action

   e   extended

   p   primary partition (1-4)

p

Partition number (1-4): 2

First cylinder (261-1986, default 261): 261

Last cylinder or +size or +sizeM or +sizeK (261-1986, default 1986): +128M

 

Command (m for help): w

The partition table has been altered!

 

Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table

*

I get the error below and the whole system hangs nothing happens even if I
leave it for an hour.

 

fdisk: WARNING: rereading partition table failed, kernel still uses old
table: Device or resource busy


*

The only way to get back in i to repower the unit, but then I cannot log
into the unit, so I have to format the CF and start all over again.




Second attempt.

 

The only way for me to setup UnionFS is this way, I have to unmount the
oldroot/cdrom

 

pbx ~ # umount /oldroot/cdrom

 

pbx ~ # fdisk /dev/hda

 

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 1986.

WARNING:

You already have a filesystem with the label ASTURW

This could confuse AstLinux when it boots.

I hope you know what you are doing...

On new systems you can optionally use unionfs instead of they key disk.

 

To create the appropriate file structure, type yes.

 

If you have an existing key disk and want to migrate your key disk

settings to this new unionfs partition, execute movekd /dev/hda2 after

this script exits.

 

To create a new key disk structure on your new unionfs partition,

type yes followed by the Enter key.  Press any other key to exit.

 

If you are new to Astlinux, you will want to say yes.

Please reboot now or run movekd to migrate an existing key disk to your
unionfs   partition

pbx ~ # reboot

This method gets it all working ok but my TDM card with 2xFXO are not
detected, how do I get it working, as the asterisk gui does not show the
Analog card as well.

 

Appreciate your help

 

Cheers

Hi Mart,

Thanks for your persistence, I have checked and rechecked the settings and
they are all the same as your except the following.

My red daughter boards are on position 1  2 which I have mage the changes
to reflect this.

What has got me totally stuffed is the following,

1.The mnt/kd/zaptel.conf  mnt/kd/asterisk/zapata.conf files were not there
I had to manually create them. On a new install do I have to run a command
or something?
2.Does you analogue cards show up on the asterisk gui?

I am at a loss as to why this is not working.

That will teach me to try and change the original settings to something

 The main change you need is to uncomment :

 In order that I can address the box from a putty (SSH) session I set the
 static IP address. It runs behind a domestic ADSL router/hub on
 192.168.1.1. I therefore set the following:
 
 EXTIP=192.168.1.124
 EXTNM=255.255.255.0
 EXTGW=192.168.1.1
 DNS=192.168.1.1
 
 I also have setup MODOPTS as follows, but I don't think this is
 necessary, and in some recent versions it did not actually have any
 effect anyway:
 
 MODOPTS=wctdm:opermode=UK wctdm:debug=1
 
 The only other changes I made to rc.conf - which do not affect The TDM
 card are :
 
 DOMAIN=mydomain.com

 nothing happen, the only way I could get it to play was to reformat the
CF
 and reinstall, unmount/ oldroot/cdrom then run fdisk  genunion /dev/hda2
 and all is sweet again, I can login via putty (root/astlinux)  via

 [As far as your TDM card goes , have you set the ZAPMODS variable in

Hi Cleve

I would not necessarily expect to see zaptel.conf, but in the past the
zaptata.conf has been present.

Do you see any errors during startup?
What happens if you run

ztcfg -vv

One thing which might be different is that I based my rc.conf on my
0.6.2 rc.conf, not the one which came with 0.6.3.  But I am really
clutching at straws here.

Can anyone comment on whether DAHDI has actually meant to have replaced
ZAP in 0.6.3 and the only reason it runs for me is that my rc.conf is
0.6.2 based ?

2009-03-01 Thread Cleveland Electronic Services
Hi Justin  Darrick,

Thanks for your help, I still cant get this to work, when I reboot the
machine it does not detect my TDM card I have to run  modprobe wctdm  at
root to get it started hope you could send me some answers.

[Justin Coffi wrote:

 should fix things.]

I tried this but still no go at reboot I have to run  modprobe wctdm to
get it to work.

[The symbolic link was there to start with.  If you deleted it and 
created a new file overwriting, it's possible to 'undelete' the deleted 
symbolic link by removing the file that's on the unionfs partition which

Darrick,

As I indicated on a fresh install there was absolutely nothing in the
following files.

/etc/asterisk  no Zapata.conf
/etc  no zaptel.conf or symlink either
/mnt/kd  no zaptel.conf file

This is what totally threw me off the trail, so what I did was using my
experiences in installing plain asterisk I created those files manually, but
did not realise for some reason the Astlinux distro does not take kindly to
comments #. This I only discovered since the assistance from Martin Rogers,
when he posted his configurations. I have created the necessary sym link,
but still at powerup or reboot the TDM card is not detected and I have to
manually run  modprobe wctdm  for some reason wherever the script is to
probe for this card and powerup/bootup/reboot is not doing its job.

Another thing I noticed also after a reboot/powerup if you use the Asterisk
wed gui and click on the detect hardware tab the page comes up ok and shows
no analogue hardware, so if you click on any other tab and go back and click
on the detect hardware tab the whole system hangs, you loose your putty
connection, https the lot. The only way to get it back is a power recycle.

We really are trying to get the documentation updated.  I've had a few 
different people who have offered to do documentation on various parts 
of Astlinux.  To date no one has actually produced anything.  I'll try 
to update the page with a few topics, but it may be helpful to have a 
list of requested topics.

On a short list, I have the following:

Upgrading (new process)
Installing Zaptel (sometime to be dahdi) hardware
Installing Sangoma hardware
Installing ISDN (using mISDN v1)

Best practices guide?

Any other topics people can thing of?

Hi Darrick,

Thanks for the prompt reply, your solution 1. Below worked perfect (now
where were you hiding yesterday) I was scratching my head till 3 am this
morning, I can now go to bed finally. But I seem to have a new issue now I
cannot access my Asterisk GUI when I go
http://myip:8088/asterisk/static/config/index.html , I get the following
error. Fells like I am opening a can of worms here.

Failed to Connect
The connection was refused when attempting to contact myip:8088.
Though the site seems valid, the browser was unable to establish a
connection.
* Could the site be temporarily unavailable? Try again later.
* Are you unable to browse other sites?  Check the computer's network
connection.
* Is your computer or network protected by a firewall or proxy? Incorrect
settings can interfere with Web browsing.

[1).  You're editing /mnt/kd/rc.conf and had previously used the web 
interfaced to make some changes (which then creates a directory called 
/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/ with several *.conf files).

My guess is #1.  If that's the case, you need to look in the 
/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d directory for a file called user.conf.  Edit that file 
and add a line called ZAPMODS=wctdm

After you've done that, either reboot (recommended) or do the following:

1).  service asterisk stop; service zaptel stop
2).  gen-rc-conf
3).  service zaptel start; service asterisk start]

Cleve,

You have one of a few things going on.

1).  You're editing /mnt/kd/rc.conf and had previously used the web 
interfaced to make some changes (which then creates a directory called 
/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/ with several *.conf files).

2).  You're editing /etc/rc.conf directly which the header on the file 
itself warns you is the wrong thing to do.

My guess is #1.  If that's the case, you need to look in the 
/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d directory for a file called user.conf.  Edit that file 
and add a line called ZAPMODS=wctdm

After you've done that, either reboot (recommended) or do the following:

1).  service asterisk stop; service zaptel stop
2).  gen-rc-conf
3).  service zaptel start; service asterisk start

Hi Philip,

Thanks for your reply, I did run what you said at the very beginning and yes
it worked, but bombed out when I did a reboot or powerup, the only solution
which has been rock solid is what Darrick suggested, I have now done several
reboots and powerup to make sure and it works perfect, now waiting for a
solution why my Asterisk GUI is not coming up at all.

# /etc/init.d/zaptel init

This should fix your problem. Normally you would have had to reboot
after creating/modifying the /mnt/kd/zaptel.conf file. I just gave you
the two magic commands that happen at boot time to install and parse the
file.

Re: [Astlinux-users] Astlinux 0.6.3 Some strange issues TDM card not working

2009-03-01 Thread Cleveland Electronic Services
Hi Darrick,

I have all the same files that were there in /mnt/kd/asterisk.. I have not
deleted anything at all. What was strange is that it worked right upto the
point where I applied your solution to get the TDM card to work at boot up
and since the Asterisk web gui does not work anymore.

 which has been rock solid is what Darrick suggested, I have now done
several
 reboots and powerup to make sure and it works perfect, now waiting for a
 solution why my Asterisk GUI is not coming up at all.

What files do you have in /mnt/kd/asterisk/ ?  Did you delete any of 
those files?

I have a clean install (new system) that works just fine.

There may be some problems with the asterisk-gui which is why we don't 
include a direct link to that from the web interface.  Feel free to use 
it, but don't be surprised if things break.  Someone on the list is 
working on a possible fix which may help out and would be included in a 
future release.

It would be a good idea to speak to your VSP and see how they pass your DID

only passing your sip number through then you have no hope of separating

I don't think I understand what you are looking for. If you mean multiple
direct inward dialing from a single SIP account at a ITSP, it is possible.
I have one account with my provider but have three numbers and have Asterisk
on my AstLinux box sending those three numbers off to three different
phones.

 

To make this work you need several things:

 

1. Your provider to send the number dialed when it sets up the call my
provider calls it DNIS and there is a check box on their web page to
enable it on a per number basis. Your provider may have different names or
ways to set that up.

2. You need the SIP context for your account to send the call to an
extension that can handle the number string

3. You need your extensions.conf setup to handle the dialed number.

 

Tod

Re: [Astlinux-users] install tutorial for astlinux using windows and physdiskwrite???

Hi Jose,

 

First you need to gunzip the file first and then use physdiskwrite to write the 
.img file to your CF.

 

Cheers

Hi Jose,

You can use the following method.

Physdiskwrite -u astlinux-0.6.2-net5501.img

This will write the .img file to ant CF over 800mb

NOTE: Read the onscreen instructions carefully when you select CF

Cheers

Hi Jose

can't you partition the CF card before you run physdiskwrite? E.g. into
500mb and 1.5 GB partitions ?

 HI martin. I was watching that url when at first I tried to install.
however
 my CF is 2 gigas and it appears that some protection arise when the disk
is
 larger than 800mb  so i couldnt use that link to install with
 physdiskwrite.  here the post I put after the original

 when I tried to use physdiskwrite.  it ask me What Disk do you want to
 write.  but the CF is 2 gigas capacity. and it said in cmd.exe that the
 disk is larger than 800mb (safety overwrite check) please check another
one
 this in windows.
 so I couldnt to write the compact flash.   and If I could. I dont know how
 to make CF boot. or install

 applies:

 my question and please help me is this.
 I need to instrall from a windows using physdiskwrite. with a usb card
 reader flash compact reader.
 the thing is that i dont know the step by step to do so.
 what I see it. seems no deep for a neofito guy as I am. I have seen the
 runnix install but is not deep enough since only said that it can be
done
 with physdiskwrite. but it does not supply HOW.
 I download the imgs. and unzip. but I am stuck. cuz i dont know if I
need
 to
 download runnix first or it came with the astlinux. etc
 I even dont know physdiskwrite. but you can told me step by step. in
 order
 to install astlinux with runix 6.2 in a CF that would work in my new
 zonbu
 device that is VIA.
 so could anyone on this list could tell me step by step how to install
 the
 astlinux runnix by windows with physdiskwrite

 thant way i can begin to use my astlinux system.

 thanks so much and thanks in advance
 Colin
