Well, Ubuntu does have a software installer "Synaptic Package Manager" I am using Ubuntu Breezy which is 5.1. I tried using the manager to install and no go.
I tried using sudo apt-get install asterisk, it installs mostly but I get an error at the end.
I went on the forums and found some help here is what I am doing now...pita but I will let you know if it works.

Get ready for some work! lol.
First remove all the package you install for asterisk via apt-get. This will disrupt the compile.
once you have done that. Run these commands in order.
$ apt-get clean
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get upgrade
$ apt-get install build-essential
$ apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
$ apt-get install libcurl3
$ apt-get install libssl-dev
$ apt-get install libncurses5-dev
$apt-get install libiax-dev
$apt-get install autoconf
$apt-get install flex
$apt-get install bison
$apt-get install libnewt-dev
$apt-get install zlib1g-dev
$apt-get install initrd-tools
Once that has been all installed, reboot
The
$ tar -zxf "zaptel-version" <-enter the file name there
$ cd "zaptel directory"
$ make
$ make install
$ depmod -a
next
$ tar -zxf "asterisk-verision" <-enter the file name there
$ cd "asterisk directory"
$ make
(watch this carefully, you see loads of errors, no worries, just make sure you get the final prompt for make install)
$ make install
Then once all that is done, you will need to setup the config files.
$ make samples
edit the files located at /etc/asterisk
If you require music on hold. DO NOT INSTALL mpg123 or mpg321 from the apt-get command, it DOSEN'T work. I have a deb install package, there are some install bugs, but if you require it, just drop me another PM.
Good luck and may the farce be with you! |
