Topic: [announce SAIL-2.1.15 and Asterisk-1.4 rpms]

[Franco]

I just installed over a fresh install, this is way better than previous versions, specially when dealing with zaptel lines.
Except for the CDR, all seems to work beautiful.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Selintra,

Is this still Alpha? Or can I upgrade my current 2.1.14-339 version?

Thanks,
Del

Hi Del

It's still alpha.  There are a few things to clean up.

Just worked out why CDR is not working. See  bugzilla. The cdr_addon_mysql.so library module is missing. This is normally available in the asterisk-addons package. However no such package exists for asterisk 1.4 on centos.

Until the package is added or the library module is added to smeserver-asterisk I have compiled the library myself from asterisk-addons-1.4.1. To get it to work copy the library module cdr_addon_mysql.so to /usr/lib/asterisk/modules and restart asterisk. Make sure Log CDR to MySQL: is set to Yes in Global settings.

If you get mysql connect errors you may need to resetup the mysql database. Beware any previous CDR data will be lost. Type "mysqladmin drop asterisk" and then "mysql < /home/selintra/stat/asterisk-stat-v2/cdr-mysql-setup" at the command prompt and restart asterisk.

Thanks very much indeed for this. We had worked out what the problem was but we had trouble compiling mysql.so from the add-ons on our 1.4 test/build server.  You've saved us a big job because now we can just include your module into the rpm.

Nice one...

So, at first glance it looks like asterisk can't voiptalk but it is able to download its updates and telnet to the outside world OK.

Any ideas please?

I would like to use *v1.4 for a very small VOIP install of 3 Phones
with voice mail and the normal Basic setup... There is 2 BT (UK) Lines
that will go into the SME via a TDM card and then to the 3 Phones.
What i would like some help with is:-

What is the Best way to install the latest ver of Asterisk/SAIL on an updated
7.1 box (Fresh Install) ?

Is Asterisk/SAIL in a yum repo yet ?

What is the Current Version that is recommended of both Asterisk and
SAIL ?

Any help with these questions would be great.
Thank you all for your brilliant work with Asterisk/SAIL and SME integration.

Hi Dageek,

To help with what version see here:
http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=36849.0
The install can normally be found here:
http://www.selintra.com/docs/cgi-bin/view but it seems to be down at the moment I am not sure about the yum repo question. I would try the search facility next time, that's what I did  and their are some people on here who will flame you for not doing so

Regards,

The install can normally be found here:
http://www.selintra.com/docs/cgi-bin/view but it seems to be down at the moment.

I managed to find the docs via Google Cache anyway...
They are quite good docs...

I am not sure about the yum repo question.

I'm sure I read somewhere that there was a repo that had Astrisk on it,
but I have been looking @ SO many sites for ideas I will prob never find
it again.

I would try the search facility next time, that's what I did  and their are some people on here who will flame you for not doing so

I did use the search, but there are so many threads that contradict each
other I really just wanted a quick simple answer on what is the best ver
to use, and so on..

Once I found a cached copy of the docs the install went like a dream, So
easy, So quick, I had SAIL running in around 5 mins.. I am used to editing
the config files for Astrisk, but the interface is really good and very simple
to use.

Hi, I have installed your rpms,
and in my playing, I have made a mess of the Trunk panel.
I no longer get a proper Trunk list,  but I get this message displayed.

Quantifier follows nothing in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/* <-- HERE 87951901/ at /etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/cgi-bin/sarktrunk line 337.

Can you help me fix the mess I have made?
 Afraid I have no clue as to what that means.

Thanks

[del]

Hi groutley,

Maybe you could remove and reinstall the rpms  Not sure if this will work but it is worth a try

Del

Hi Del,
  thanks for the suggestion,  but afraid I did try that,  I have also Dropped the Asterisk Database, and then re-installed the rpms.
Curiously when I reinstalled the rpms   I got....

Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:selintra-sail          ########################################### [100%]
SELFORMAT Selintra already in 2.1.1. format - ending

So obviously there were still fingerprints somewhere..
and the fact that this Trunking function remembers my problem

Hi Groutley,

Think your configuration databases to be corrupted.
FYI: Configuration sail V2.x is stored in 'e-smith' format, not on MySQL.

would suggest you to try the following :

1) Uninstall Selintra-sail rpm ( # rpm -e ... ).

2) Remove sail config databases, by erasing all 'selintra' entries in /home/e-smith/db/ :  

selintra
selintra-deletes
selintra-start
selintra-updates
selintra-work
selintra-undo
selintra-undo(x).

3) Install selintra-sail rpm again ( # rpm -Uvh ... ).
    #/sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade
    #/sbin/e-smith/signal-event reboot


Since installer process won't find any previous database entry, it should install default databases again. As a result your problem should be solved.

FYI : Normally, when you get such issue(s), by using 'regress' button in the global settings panel, you can retreive the 'previous' situation you had. This is valid for the 5 last changes you 'commit'.


Best,

Herve

Thanks Herve,
  That did the trick...  really appreciate it..
