hello all, I have been lurking here for a while learning what I can, and reading quite a bit, using the fine reference at asteriskdocs.org I have been building my test server on an older compaq dl380, PIII-700, 1.2gig mem [X not running]. My problems begin when trying to start * for the first time, I have purchased a TDM400P card with 4 FXO modules from digium and that is installed and seemingly working fine from what I can see. I made a singe entry in zaptel.conf adding "fxsks=1-4" then modprobe zaptel and modprobe wcfxs var/log/messages reports: Jan 12 16:03:42 asterisk kernel: Zapata Telephony Interface Registered on major 196 Jan 12 16:03:51 asterisk kernel: Freshmaker version: 71 Jan 12 16:03:51 asterisk kernel: Freshmaker passed register test Jan 12 16:03:51 asterisk kernel: Module 0: Installed -- AUTO FXO (FCC mode) Jan 12 16:03:51 asterisk kernel: Module 1: Installed -- AUTO FXO (FCC mode) Jan 12 16:03:51 asterisk kernel: Module 2: Installed -- AUTO FXO (FCC mode) Jan 12 16:03:51 asterisk kernel: Module 3: Installed -- AUTO FXO (FCC mode) Jan 12 16:03:51 asterisk kernel: Found a Wildcard TDM: Wildcard TDM400P REV E/F (4 modules) Jan 12 16:03:51 asterisk kernel: Registered tone zone 0 (United States / North America) So from what I can see all seems well up to this point. when I start * I get the following at the very end where it craps out: [I am assuming this is where the problem is] [app_privacy.so]Jan 12 16:58:13 WARNING[8395]: loader.c:309 ast_load_resource: /usr/lib/asterisk/modules/app_privacy.so: undefined symbol: ast_strlen_zero Jan 12 16:58:13 WARNING[8395]: loader.c:501 load_modules: Loading module app_privacy.so failed! Ouch ... error while writing audio data: : Broken pipe This does not mean much to me, and searching on wiki and google only seem to give references to code examples which are Irish to me. I have not started the * configuration process yet as it seems I should be able to get * started prior to that step. Any help for this problem is greatly appreciated. Thanks Eamonn
