vicidial.org

Hi,

upgarded my server with current svn release of vicidial.But even after that I see cache is consuming a lot of memory.Even after runing for 12 hrs without dialing it consumes 1GB of memory.Any idea or how you all are managing this.

regards
rudra

I am not seeing that problame on any of my servers running SVN. Do you have some "top -c" output for us?

Hi,

This is the out put of top -c.My server is running since 2 days without dialing.

regards
rudra

Any specific reason you are using Fedora?

Which Fedora version?

Do you upgrade it regularly?

Hi,

I'm trying to install asterisk in slackware.But after installing zaptel I stucked up.There is no rc script available for zaptel for slaware.what ever is available for system V like os like redhat can be started directly from init.d directory.Please suggest how to start the zaptel in slackware.

regards
rudra

do you mean like ztcfg -vvvvvvvvvvvv, this is the way to start zaptel before loading asterisk

make sure you put the correct ip, it is reading loopback ip.

If you were to read the SCRATCH_INSTALL it would have told you how to load the zaptel drivers and start ztcfg in the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file

As for the FastAGI issue, make sure you have the ADMIN_keepalive_ALL.pl script in your crontab and that your /etc/astguiclient.conf file is configured properly and that your manager.conf is configured properly.

stii not able to figure out the problem

In my old server when I issue telnet localhost 4577 I found something is listening on this port but in my current server it saying

root@dialer:/etc# telnet localhost 4577
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
root@dialer:/etc#

Not able to figure out what could be the problem.

I'm currently latest svn version of vicidial.

Hi,

solved the problem. I’ve not installed the Net-Server perl module hence this problem was coming. Now it is working fine.

Thankx for the hint, and sorry for the inconvenience.

Can somebody give me advice? Thank you. I try 2 times but got same error.

post results of "screen -r"

I'm not sure what you want me post, just cut some of them. If you want more let me know. Thank you reply.

By the way, I'm not sure if need to pay attation that the server is an virtual server running over VMware, so it no any Digium device. no that 8kHz clock signal. Maybe that's why I heard IVR plackback sound hear is not normal slowly like "The -- per-son--dial--....".

looks like several of your screens are not running. What do you have for the keepalive value in your /etc/astguiclient.conf file?

Oh right, thank you. I know my mistake.

Currently is 2 - AST_send_listen

Should select 123456. it's work now(no that error message.).

Thank you reply.
