asterisk users - Jan 2015 - dahdi_genconf fails with "Empty configuration - no spans"

Hello,


I just installed a Debian Jessie box from scratch which sports a Digium TE435
digital card.

I installed the software, built and loaded the kernel modules:

# dpkg -l|grep dahdi
ii  asterisk-dahdi                     1:11.13.1~dfsg-2+b1               amd64  
DAHDI devices support for the Asterisk PBX
ii  dahdi                              1:2.10.0.1-1                      amd64  
utilities for using the DAHDI kernel modules
ii  dahdi-linux                        1:2.10.0.1~dfsg-1                 all    
DAHDI telephony interface - Linux userspace parts
ii  dahdi-modules-3.16.0-4-amd64:amd64 1:2.10.0.1~dfsg-1+3.16.7-ckt2-1   amd64  
DAHDI modules for Linux (kernel 3.16.0-4-amd64)
ii  dahdi-source                       1:2.10.0.1~dfsg-1                 all    
DAHDI telephony interface - source code for kernel driver

# dahdi_hardware 
pci:0000:0a:00.0     wcte43x+     d161:800e Wildcard TE435/235

# lsmod|grep -E 'dahdi|wct'
wcte43x                56864  0 
oct612x               162715  1 wcte43x
dahdi                 212318  2 oct612x,wcte43x
crc_ccitt              12347  1 dahdi


However, dahdi_genconf keeps finding no span:

# dahdi_genconf -vvv
Default parameters from /etc/dahdi/genconf_parameters
Empty configuration -- no spans
Generating /etc/dahdi/assigned-spans.conf
Empty configuration -- no spans
Generating /etc/dahdi/system.conf
Empty configuration -- no spans
Generating /etc/asterisk/dahdi-channels.conf


What am i missing?


Thank you,

It looks like your driver is loaded correctly. My guess would be maybe
the dahdi-tools is packaged as an older version that doesn't know
about the newer te435 card. You could hand craft the config file using
the info in the card's manual
http://www.digium.com/sites/digium/files/quad-span-digital-card-user-manual.pdf

or you could try compiling from source.

Also, you could give Digium support a call. That would probably be
your quickest path to resolution.

The error is "no spans".

What is the output of:

  dahdi_span_assignment list
