the topic says it all.. i reinstalled everything again...
using fedora core 4 like before when it was working..
the topic says it all.

whats the output of screen -x

if you get no screens found on screen -r you probably have something wrong with the crontab.

try:
tail -f /var/spool/mail/root

to make sure you do not have any errors or warnings.

well thanks for replying dude.. when i put the command you told me to ... im getting this....

/bin/sh: /usr/share/astguiclient/<pl file> : no such file or directory... but then if I browse to that location i have the files there... thats the correct location for it....

are you using the start_asterisk_boot.pl script to start everything?

-Art

yes i have that as stated on the scratch install.

Check the internal mail on that server "pine"

See if you have any errors in the crontab in your internal root mailbox.

post your "crontab -l"

you obviously have not read the instructions.. the keepalive scripts were collapsed into one major keepalive scripts.. additionally re-read your /etc/astguiclient.conf make sure you are configured properly there..

this is what i have under /etc/astguiclient.conf

then you should be using:

### keepalive script for astguiclient processes
* * * * * /usr/share/astguiclient/ADMIN_keepalive_ALL.pl

i need to replace all the keepalive .pl files on the crontab -e and put just one wich is the ALL.pl one right?

read the scratch install man.. thats all I can say, there have been many updates you need to catch up on 2.0.1. If you have questions after you read it let me know.. also check out the UPGRADE doc in the zip that tells alot of what has been changed..

ok now it seems to be working fine but... now i have some issues...
1. manual dialing works fine
2. autodial wont work since asterisk is not calling out by it self.. i pressed resume but no calls going out...

is time synced? is VDauto_dial running in screen -x etc?

-Art

screen -x
There are several suitable screens on:
4238.ASTupdate (Detached)
4244.ASTlisten (Detached)
4250.ASTVDremote (Detached)
4247.ASTVDauto (Detached)
2531.asterisk (Detached)
4253.ASTVDadapt (Detached)
4241.ASTsend (Detached)
Type "screen [-d] -r [pid.]tty.host" to resume one of them.

what is the output from ASTVDauto?
