[Asterisk-Users] Build on Itanium fails

2005-08-09 Thread Jonas Arndt
Hi Guys, I hope this is the correct mailing list for this question. I have a dual 1.6 Ghz Itanium with 4 Gb of memory. Yes, a lot of power for Asterisk. I am running SuSE Enterprise Server with the 2.6.5-7.97-default kernel. I have just started to look into Asterisk and I am in the building

Hi Again, I removed codec_gsm.so from codecs/Makefile and the build work. Like I said, I am not too familiar with Asterisk yet. What implications will this have to the functionality? Thanks, // Jonas Jonas Arndt wrote: Thanks Guys, I should have mentioned that I have already tried to

Did you ever try asterisk on a non itanium ? You dont have a single configuration file on your machine, of course it doesnt work :p zoa Jonas Arndt wrote: Hi, The story never ends After a succesful buld without gsm codec, I installed it and ran: itanium:/etc/asterisk #

Hi Zoa, Nope, I didn't. I thought I was VERY clear on that point. What I did was following the guidlines in the An introduction to Asterisk document.It told me to create certain conf files in /etc/asterisk and then start it, which I did. In any case, I find it EXTREMELY hard to believe that

Hi, I will do that. I think you are missing the point here though. If a program would SegFault from missing conf files, it would be a HUGE bug. The problem I am facing is most likely due to my plattform. As they have build Debian packages for Itanium I was hoping that somebody would have

Dave, A segmentation fault is usually caused by the program writing in a memory area that is not allocated (it could be a result of the optimizer sometime as well). That means that it can potentially overwrite code that are executing there. In worst case scenario you could even cause a

Jose, It might help to have a look at the debian SOURCE package for Asterisk. Here is the Debian DIFF File http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/a/asterisk/asterisk_1.0.7.dfsg.1-2.diff.gz They've obviously been successful in compiling it for Itanium - maybe something obvious will jump out. I

One must keep in mind that the config files specify how hardware is to be handled. If config files are present, the defaults in them are adequate to keep really bad things from happening. If not . . . . . . By the nature of this beast, it can easily seg fault if hardware drivers don't have proper

Hi Rollin, I am using SuSE's SLE 9.0, which is built for Itanium. The compiler works for other 32 and 64 bits applications. There could still be a problem with my environment though. I have not excluded that. I can make it compile if I exclude the GSM codec. Now, how will that affect the

Hi Jonas, You may know this already, a codec is an algorithm for compressing and uncompressing some signal. Often the signal was originally analog, but has been digitized to reduce size/bandwidth and to store it in files. The GSM codec is important in asterisk, because most or all music playback

Steve, Indeed a kernel oops can happen. I am not going to in detail explain, but I can tell you that I have seen it happen with dar (Linux backup software) using zlib. This has been confirmed by the dar community. Regarding a sheltered life, no I have not such a life. I work with software
