G729 Install Issue - Ast 1.8, ViciBox5.i686-5.0.3.preload

There's loads of help already out there for installing this G729 codec, but I cant find one that covers my issue.

Lets take this guide for example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrulU3MFuHU

When it comes to loading the codec into asterisk, it tells me the load command doesn't exist?
Then, if I want to check to see if it happens to be already installed with my current build with the "Show Translations" command, apparently that command doesn't exist either!

Code: Select all
VicidialServerHostName*CLI> show translation
No such command 'show translation' (type 'core show help show translation' for other possible commands)

VicidialServerHostName*CLI>
Disconnected from Asterisk server

VicidialServerHostName:~ # show translation
If 'show' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this:
    cnf show


I tried within asterisk, and outside asterisk at the main command line?

Its a brand new fresh install of the iso "ViciBox5.i686-5.0.3.preload.iso" just downloaded 2 days ago from the site...
I did all the updates using the zipper refresh and zipper up, before running the vicidial-express command...

I'm running Aterisk 1.8.25 and vicidial VERSION: 2.8-421a BUILD: 140108-0752

Hope this is all the info for a helpful topic :)

thanks

Hi,

it seems that you might have missing modules? Very wierd.

At the asterisk CLI, please just double [tab] and paste the list of commands that are available to you? Also if "show" is available then please do a "show modules" or try "core show version"?

Regards,

Rudolf

PS: If you aren't too fussed about this install, I would format and re-install. Which manual did you use for the install?

Hi Rudolf, I've started dialling and building up a dialler, so ideally don't want to reformat again if possible. However, I did find that I can't run these commands on my test server either? I wonder if there is a way to quickly and easily move all the data to another freshly set up dialler?

I'm not with the server right now, but will post the output you've requested.

As for the manual I followed a guide I don't remember the name of, but it was poorly written in the sense that there was just too much 'padding' in the write up. So I made my own bullet pointed install instructions. So this is the one I used:

ViciDial Install...

Install with disk, once at prompt, login with:
- Root & vicidial
Then reboot to fix yast bug? (Remove cd)
Once rebooted, login as root & vicidial
Type yast LAN
-tab to network card
-press alt I (I as in "I will do it")
-press alt T
-press alt I (I as in "I will do it")
-Enter this machine's IP address
-press alt G
-press alt Z
-Choose "Internal Zone (Unprotected)"
-press alt N
-press alt S
-press alt T
-Enter a unique hostname for the dialler
-press alt D
-enter "vici.local"
-press alt 1
-enter the gateway's IP. Usually the router's IP address, for the DNS server.
-press alt 2
-enter "8.8.8.8"
-press alt 3
-enter "4.2.2.2"
-press alt U
-press alt F
-again enter the main gateway IP.
-press alt O
Ping google.com
-press ctrl + C to stop pinging

Configure firewall, type "yast firewall"
Type reboot
Wait for restart

Log in with root & vicidial

Type in: (this paragraph is all one line)
sed -i '/baseurl/c baseurl=http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/packman/suse/openSUSE_12.3' /etc/zypp/repos.d/packman_12.3.repo
Press return
Note: Linux will not acknowledge successful execution of this command

Type zypper refresh
If you've still got internet, it will update...
If you do have internet, but still won't work, then they may be updating their repositories

Type zypper up
Say yes to all installs

Type reboot

Log back in
Type vicibox-express

Fix the mp3 permissions with:
chmod 777 /var/spool/asterisk

Log in via HTML to test interface, if works, server set up is done.

Should change root login name and/or password from default and avoid using 5060 for externals.

-------------

Is that correct setup?

Thanks

did you ever type os-isntall?

Read this manual - did you do phase 1?

This is infact the very guide I followed, I recognise it. But just to be sure, I started reading it and confirmed that the preload does not require the command you refer to.

The Phase-1 OS Installation using the “Preload” ISO is now complete. You do not need to perform any other instructions labeled “Phase 1”. Please proceed to the Phase 1.5 installation instructions. You will need to complete the required portions of Phase 1.5 before continuing to Phase 2.


I am using the preload...

Any other advice anyone?
