How to convert a stock Centos 6.x to the FreePBX Distro

tonyclewis's picture

I had a few people that needed to take a stock Centos 6.3 and 6.4 system and convert them to the FreePBX Distro. I went ahead and created a new wiki for this and whipped up some scripts that you can use to convert a plain non modified standard Centos 6.3 into a 3.211.63 Distro or a Centos 6.4 into a 4.211.64 distro.

This will convert your Centos machine into a full fledge supported FreePBX Distro.

 

Please see this wiki.

Release Track 2.210.62 End of Life

We have finally taken 3.211.63 track from Beta to Stable.  Release track 2.210.62 will now enter into a End of Life (EOL) state. I have rolled a final upgrade script for 2.210.62 track that will upgrade you to the corresponding 3.211.63 track which is now the stable track so nobody will be left stranded on the EOL track. Please review the wiki on how to upgrade your 2.210.62 tracks here.

New Alpha Distro 4.211.64-1

I finally found some time to get a Centos 6.4 ISO built up. It has been pushed to the download mirrors and is available for download. This version is code named "Call Forward" and is comprised of Centos 6.4, FreePBX 2.11 and like always your choice of Asterisk 1.8, 10 or 11 at install time.

I am also working on retiring the 2.210.62 branch. With FreePBX 2.11 coming out Monday from Beta and Centos 6.2 being well over a year old, its time to retire the build. Below is a list of changes that are happening.

Sangoma vs Digium cards in DAHDI module and amportal start....

I have a Sangoma A200 (FXO/FXS) card and a Digium TE110P (T1) card in a server. Sangoma uses the notorious wanpipe driver to communicate with Dahdi.

I've got the Sangoma card working fine for both FXO and FXS ports using the FreePBX (2.10) Dahdi module but when I go to configure the Digium T1 card, all h*ll breaks loose. It seems that "amportal start" calls the wanrouter and wipes out any configs made previously for the Digium card.

Manually, I can do

"amportal stop"
"wanrouter stop"
"service dahdi stop"

Lost Web Interface

installing GNOME under CentOS:

1. After logging to your root account in CLI mode, install the X window system (X11) with this command:

yum groupinstall -y 'X Window System'

2. Install now GNOME with the following command:

yum groupinstall -y 'Desktop'
