ViciBox 6.0.1 - Asterisk not starting

[ghgp]

I am testing the new release of ViciBox 6.0.1 in a virtualised environment however I am having problems. SQL and web installation went smooth, however asterisk doesn't seem to start on a telephony server.

I have used the latest 6.0.1 standard (not preload) CD with default database on ESXi 5.5. I can see the server under "Servers" tab. During OS installation, I disabled the network card so the system doesn't auto update etc etc Once the OS was installed, I changed network settings (not hostname) to static IP, DNS settings and routes. Once ViciBox was installed, I rebooted the system but asterisk process is not starting. I have re-installed everything from scratch multiple times, but no luck yet.

Troubleshooting I have done is below.

Try this:

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/asterisk stop
/etc/init.d/dahdi stop
/etc/init.d/dahdi start
/etc/init.d/asterisk start
asterisk -r

Sometimes after installation i have to restart dahdi in order to start asterisk properly

Unfortunately, didn't work. I also tried installing it on a physical server..same problem. I wonder if something wasn't compiled right..am I the only one having this problem?

try asterisk -vvvvvvvvvvvvgc you can see a verbose asterisk console try to start up and from there you can see the errors of why it did not

Thanks for your reply. I already have with last entry being "Segmentation Fault (core dumped)" - see above.
I have tried offloading dahdi related modules (incase one of them was faulting), however still the same result. :/

Hi,

I have same problem. I tried older version ViciBox 6.0.0 and also asterisk won't start. With version 5.0.3 asterisk work fine.

Tried 5.0.3 and worked fine as well. Let's now wait for 6.0.2 to get released

Hi Igor,
Thought I would let you know that updating the sysem prior to vicibox-installation AND stopping ooh323 from loading resolved the problem.
