Hello, Colors in the CLI have helped me ignore notices/warnings, etc and concentrate better on stuff that I want to look out for during testing. I've noticed that a simple restart would not bring back the colors in the CLI. Asterisk needs to either start on boot, or start by way of safe_asterisk to have colors in the CLI. To top this, I always restart asterisk nightly. My restart script code: #!/bin/bash time=`date` echo "I ran at $time" >> /root/asterisklog /usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "stop now" /usr/sbin/safe_asterisk This basically shows that safe_asterisk is being defined, YET everytime the restart script is executed by crontab, I don't see the colors. Unless ofcourse I manually stop now, and safe_asterisk. What gives? I just want to have an auto restart, and CLI with colors! Regards, Mark. PS: Sorry for the other HTML mail.
