asterisk users - Aug 2003 - Problem starting Asterisk after abnormal shutdown

I've seen this happen a few times and I think it's when the system that
Asterisk is running on crashes due
to a power failure (or for some other reason that causes a non-planned
shutdown).

While Linux comes up fine, Asterisk won't start because the drivers are
loading
in the wrong order.  fixed by:
  1) sh /usr/src/fix-asterisk-modules.sh
  2) sh /etc/init.d/asterisk start

Is this a known problem? Is there an existing bug on this or should I open one
up?
Anyone else seen this problem?

Thanks

Lee Goodman

It is nothing specific to asterisk. Depending on your distribution there
are ways to manipulate the order in which modules load. If you can't
find that info, why don't you just call /usr/src/fix-asterisk-modules.sh
from the start section of /etc/init.d/asterisk.
Mind you, you will be facing this same problem sooner or later with
another set of modules, so it may well pay off to find out how to
manipulate module load order in your distribution.
