asterisk users - Apr 2005 - Can I exit from asterisk console without stopping asterisk?

If the answer is yes: 
a) how can I do that? 
b) how can I restart an asterisk console?

Best regards,
Abe

To exit from the console type "quit"
To restart the console:
type "asterisk -vvvvvcr" (that's several "v's" in
front of the "cr".
The more "v's you put, the greater ther verbosity. I think the max is
10)

The error you are getting is probably because you are starting Asterisk like so:

/usr/sbin/asterisk -c

If you do that, then when you exit, it will kill the application,
which apparently you don't want to happen. What you will need to do is
start Asterisk without jumping directly into the console (thats what
the -c means) like so:

/usr/sbin/asterisk

or, if you're using a RedHat based system and typed 'make config'
after install, you can run the script to start Asterisk:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/asterisk start

After Asterisk is running, you can then re-attach and detach from the
console at will:

/usr/sbin/asterisk -r

Add multiple v's for verbosity:

/usr/sbin/asterisk -rvvvvvvvvv

Alternatively, attach to the Asterisk console and control the
verbosity from there:

set verbose 10

Hope that helps,
