[GaD]

What is it that you are trying to accomplish?

[akmayuga]

hi,

thanks for the reply...

we are trying to access" http ://ipaddress/recordings" and it only shows that the page is forbidden,we read some forums that we need to edit something in httpd.

Or maybe you have other way to help us regarding on this issue. please..........

thanks

Then its this file: /etc/apache2/conf.d/vicirecord.conf here is my file:

Code: Select all

Alias /RECORDINGS/ "/var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/"

<Directory "/var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE">
    Options Indexes MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
   <files *.mp3>
      Forcetype application/forcedownload
   </files>
</Directory>


and this is the directory: /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/ here are how my permissions looks:

Code: Select all

# ls -l /var/spool/asterisk/

[akmayuga]

thanks rot the reply,

maybe i did something wrong. i put another harddrive and partition it (file system ext3) mounting it to /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE, now i checked my root mail and it is giving me this message, "mv: cannot move `/var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/20120425-021257_1234567890-all.wav' to `/var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/ORIG/20120425-021257_1234567890-all.wav': No s$ :no such file or directory"

Can you give me a guide how to partition the 2nd harddrive and the correct mounting point using yast2?

[DomeDan]

ok, does the directory /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/ORIG exist? maybe you just need to create that directory
post "ls -l /var/spool/asterisk/"
and the mount-options "cat /etc/fstab"
verify that it is mounted "df -h"

[akmayuga]

hi DomeDan,

thanks for the reply.... i checked those directory you've send...

yes the "cd /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/ORIG" does exist

[DomeDan]

ok, that other harddrive you talked about, I thought it was mounted.
does your /etc/apache2/conf.d/vicirecord.conf file differ from mine?

[akmayuga]

hi DomeDan,

thanks for the reply....

does your /etc/apache2/conf.d/vicirecord.conf file differ from mine?

yes, its the same as yours.

Code: Select all

<Directory "/var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE">
    Options Indexes MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
        <files *.mp3>
                Forcetype application/forcedownload
        </files>
</Directory>


[akmayuga]

hi DomeDan,

I finally solved it... and the solution is................this!!!!!! "/" , you need to include "/" at the end of the address like so:

Code: Select all

http://"ipaddress"/RECORDINGS/

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME...

[DomeDan]

Oh, glad you figgured that one out, I was out ideas of what the problem was.
If your planning to use an other harddrive for recordings (as you were talking about), just fix the mount-point and permissions and it will probably work.

[akmayuga]

hi DomeDan,

thanks for the advice... i wanted to use the other Hard drive, but the thing is i don't know how to do it. maybe if you have time, and if its not to much to ask, would you give me some step by step guide on how to do it..

thank you so much...

[DomeDan]

Alright. I would:
Make a partition on the harddrive. "fdisk"
Create a ext3 filesystem "mkfs.ext3"
move the content in /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/ somewhere else (when there is no live calls on the system)
mount the drive to /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/
check if its ok with "df -h"
and "touch /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/test" to check it you can write there
and then put something in /etc/fstab like: "/dev/sdX1 /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/ ext3 defaults 0 0"
umount it, and try to mount it using "mount /var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/"
and check if everything is ok, then move the content back to monitorDONE/

make sure that the drive is fast enough to prevent creating a bottleneck.

[williamconley]

and seriously consider using the "archive server" setup to put this drive in a completely different server at a different physical location for actual disaster recovery backup. then you can use the ftp settings in /etc/astguiclient.conf to auto-copy your recordings there and your backups. your vicidial server gets heavy usage. drives die. hackers do mean things. having a full backup is a long-term "butt saver".

[akmayuga]

hi guys!

i really appreciate this guys.. thank you so much for keeping in touch... i will try all of these and ill tell you how it goes..

[akmayuga]

hi guys,

i tried what you've said ("I used Yast2") and i got this as a result:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/sox FAIL formats: can't open output file `/var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/GSM/20120502-023840_1234657890-all.gsm': No such file or$
mv: cannot move `/var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/20120502-023840_1234657890-all.wav' to `/var/spool/asterisk/monitorDONE/ORIG/20120502-0238$

we change the file extension to .GSM

this is our "df -h" i just accidentally inter change the hard drive

thanks guys

[DomeDan]

I can see one thing, your using "default" instead of "defaults" in /etc/fstab.
and check the directories in monitorDONE if they exist

[akmayuga]

hi guys,

i just want to ask if how will i know if this records goes to the right harddrive, i tried it again but im not so sure if i done i correctly..

I've learned a lot from you guys.... long live... thanks

[DomeDan]

check with the command df
and if you are still not sure, try to create a big file in monitorDONE and check with df again if the right drive got more space used

[akmayuga]

hi guys,

we got it working.. thank you so much.... keep on rockn....
