Hi,
The current scenario that I have here is that one x206 is serving all the needs i.e Asterisk+MySQL+Web. VICIDIAL version 1.1.12-3. I am pretty comfortable with this version and its serving me great, so I've no plans to upgrade to version 2.0.2.

Now I'm planning to separate the two i.e the x206 will have only the Asterisk on it and a PIV machine with MySQL and Web services.

I would really appreciate if you could please guide me on :-

a) what all scripts and other installs to be done on the new MySQL+Web server.
b) what all scripts would be running on the Asterisk server .
c) what scripts need to be removed from the Asterisk server.
d) do I need to setup MySQL on the asterisk server as well ?


This is the list of CRON entries(ORIGINAL - for one server)

### recording mixing for Asterisk run every 5 minutes
1,6,11,16,21,26,31,36,41,46,51,56 * * * 1,2,3,4,5,6 /home/cron/AST_CRON_mix_recordings_BASIC.pl

- install astguiclient_1.1.11 EXACTLY as scratch_install SUBPHASE 6.0
- configure AST_SERVER_conf.pl [/home/cron](change $server_ip and $DB_server to your Asterisk and MySQL server ip respectively)
- configure asterisk (SUBPHASE 6.2)
- Follow SUBPHASE 6.4 instruction of scratch_install (you only need entries required by this server)

Machine 2: Apache + astguiclient & vicidial
- install all CPAN modules

Thanks Arun for the reply.

I had chked for earlier posts, but it must have been very old. Still many thanx for it.

But I'm confused about the CRON tab entries in SubPhase 6.5. Do both my servers have ALL the entries of SubPhase 6.5??

Please advice.
Dev Singhal

no only one server ( asterisk).

Thanx Arun for the reply.

When I type screen -r, I dont see any screens except Asterisk. The rest get started and killed automatically, on the Asterisk server. So I guess the connection with MySql is not working.

The servers table would be having only one entry of the Asterisk server OR do I need to specify the MySQL server there too?

The asterisk server's ip would be in the telnet_host of the asterisk server's entry in the servers table?(in case of only one entry)

Plz advice.
Dev

you do not need to specify the mysql server in the servers table, only the Asterisk server.
