Excellent document and Debian's advantages- quick and easy, this certainly will help many people.

A few side notes which could be worth mentioning- lame package is worth upgrading to 0.98.1 or 2 if you set it up server to forward emails because of this silly error on each cron job with mp3 recordings: "LAME: Can't get "TERM" environment string."

Whenever you do
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

and apache/php is upgraded, you'd have to recompile Eaccelerator, or Apache won't start after the upgrade as eaccellerator is failing because of the changed version. This may save someone banging his head like me, why Apache is down after the update.

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/eaccelerator-0.9.5.2
make clean
 /usr/bin/phpize; ./configure --enable-eaccelerator=shared --with-php-config=/usr/bin/php-config; make; make install
/etc/init.d/apache2 start

Thanks again for your work.

Just a suggestion........ could you perhaps also include PHPMyadmin in the document?

Thanks

This may also help starters- rotate Asterisk log files:

create a file named asterisk in /etc/logrotate.d/

Code: Select all

/var/log/asterisk/cdr-csv/Master.csv /var/log/asterisk/debug /var/log/asterisk/*log /var/log/asterisk/full /var/log/asterisk/messages {
  rotate 40
  weekly
  compress
  missingok
  notifempty
  sharedscripts
  postrotate
   /usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "logger rotate" > /dev/null 2> /dev/null
  endscript
}

BTW

Code: Select all

chown :R www-data:www-data /var/www

may also be needed after installing vicidial.

In our case project_auth_entries.txt keeps getting written, even if you make WWW writable in the admin.php server settings to "0". dbconnect.php changes are not reliable as when you update it default is 1. Since we are on public server and information in those files is quite sensitive here is what we do:

Code: Select all

ln -s /dev/null /var/www/vicidial/project_auth_entries.txt
ln -s /dev/null /var/www/vicidial/admin_changes_log
ln -s /dev/null /var/www/agc/project_auth_entries.txt

Ensure $WeBRooTWritablE = '0' in dbconnect.php in /var/www/agc and vicidial directories.
Change the WWW writable in the admin.php server settings to "0".

Would you mind if I keep looking into my notes, for things simple for someone familiar with linux, but nightmare to find for starters.

Your link is empty. Any chance of refreshing the file?

codehaxor please add again the file
the link is died

I definitely agree. We would love to see this document, as to the best of my knowledge, there is no readily available documentation on multi server installation procedures.


If hosting is a problem, send it to me and I will post it in a location everyone will be able to download from for the next couple of months.
