Hello my friends, I'm very worry about a problem i'm having...my asterisk got freez some times, every 5 or 6 days with NO trace in /var/log/asterisk/messages What i want to know is if safe_asterisk has something to be with this? This is what i have on my server: [root at mypbx ~]# ps -A | grep asterisk 9118 ? 00:01:30 asterisk [root at dreampbx ~]# ps aux | grep asterisk root

We have 1 server that after a few hours operating has multiple process of asterisk running. Here is the pstree output: # pstree init-+-atftpd |-auditd---{auditd} |-bash---safe_opserver---op_server.pl |-crond |-cwASTcall.pl |-dbus-daemon |-events/0 |-hald-+-hald-addon-acpi | `-2*[hald-addon-stor] |-httpd---3*[httpd] |-khelper |-klogd

Guys. Anybody know why sometimes on some servers Asterisk shows more than once while doing a ps? [root@server2 akrall]# ps -ax|grep asterisk 20555 ? S 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/sbin/safe_asterisk 20557 ? S 0:00 asterisk -vvvg -c 20558 ? S 0:00 asterisk -vvvg -c 20560 ? S 0:00 asterisk -vvvg -c 20561 ? S 0:00 asterisk -vvvg -c 20562 ? S

Hi folks, I use safe asterisk to startup and run asterisk in the background. In Safe_asterisk script, there is a parameter (right at the top ), CONSOLE which I can set to no or something. If it is no asterisk startup as asterisk -vvvg , if it is set to something the asterisk startup as asterisk -vvvg -c. Now I am running an agi script when calls get hung-up. That is in my extensions.conf I call

I've been experiencing some crashes in Asterisk in the past few weeks. I haven't been able to find out why as gdb shows it's in a different function every time. But, in the meantime, I've been using safe_asterisk hoping that it would simply restart Asterisk by itself. It doesn't seem to do that. Whenever Asterisk crashed, the list of processes doesn't show asterisk or

Here's a strange one - when I run safe_asterisk on either of these distros, words that are colored blue or violet (but not red) turn up in Russian (and some other languages, I think). If I run asterisk with the same arguments (-vvvg -c) as safe_asterisk does, from the console, it's OK. If I run it in a Putty window it's OK. If I run asterisk -r from another console or from

Hello all, Saturday night, after a couple of shots of bourbon, I realized that I had an old PC sitting in the garage that I could use as an Asterisk gateway if I just blew the dust off it and reloaded it with a modern Linux distribution. In my characteristically impulsive manner, I grabbed it and started cleaning it up so that I could put it in my office without my wife having a fit. The

I typically start asterisk with the safe_asterisk script: 22865 pts/3 S 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/sbin/safe_asterisk 22867 pts/3 S 0:31 asterisk -vvvg -c 22871 pts/3 S 0:00 mpg123 -q -s --mono -r 8000 -b 2048 For-You.mp3 for.m 22873 pts/3 S 0:00 mpg123 -q -s --mono -r 8000 -b 2048 For-You.mp3 for.m But when I do a "stop now" from the CLI, the mpg123 causes a

Hello all. I'm new to asterisk and have been using and testing it for about a week now. My initial hope has been to use it as a sip<->h323 gateway to tie SIP & H323 based ip phones together with my Cisco AS5300 and Lucent MaxTNT/MVAM networks. I am currently running Asterisk 0.5.0 under Redhat 9 on a single PIII 800 with 256megs RAM. I have tried a couple CVS version from the past

Hi, Why does my asterisk keep forking instances at random times everyday? When I do ps aux, I got this: asterisk 13068 2.2 5.1 25924 12276 ?

Hi all, I have installed some Asterisk machine, all with the same problem. My typical configuration is: - Asterisk 1.2.14 (or 1.4.0beta3) - CentOS 4.4 server. The problem is this: When I start Asterisk with the default init script (/etc/init.d/asterisk start) distributed with the source, and kill (or kill -9) Asterisk-pid, then safe_asterisk doesn't correctly work (it dies and not restart

Hi All, i have created one prepaid PERL AGI script to integrate asterisk users in our current Oracle Billing System. I am using $AGI->exec('Dial', $dialstr); in script after getting the MAX time out for the priticular call.

Hello, I've found a couple of previous posts on this subject, but with no posted resolution... I'm attempting to run * as a non-root user (asterisk), following the guidelines on the wiki: http://voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk%20non-root I can run * as my new user with "/usr/sbin/asterisk -vvvvc" without problem.

Recently safe_asterisk is failing to pick up ASTSBINDIR. I've never had this problem before and even when I move to back versions I have the issue. I did upgrade safe_asterisk and the init.d scripts a version or so ago but even when I try older ones I still have the problem. When I hard code the location things seem to work. The problem that occurs is: cat:

Hi Please help me understand about the below issue ? [root at asterisk1 ~]# /etc/init.d/asterisk restart Stopping safe_asterisk: [ OK ] Shutting down asterisk: [ OK ] Starting asterisk: /usr/sbin/safe_asterisk: line 86: ulimit: open files: cannot modify limit: Operation not permitted

I was looking at the shell in /usr/sbin and the following statement does not seem right: while :; (read colon + semi colon). In C that would be 2xsemi-colon. is this correct in a bash shell? I am having problems with safe_asterisk. when it dies, it is not being brought up again. It works very well for stop/start/startus but does not bring up asterisk when it fails. -------------- next part

I have no problems lauching asterisk from the command line . . . asterisk -vvvvc However, I'm trying to autostart on boot up, so I'm trying safe_asterisk When I do this, I get: Asterisk ended with exit status 127. Asterisk died with code 127. Aborting. I've looked through the script but can't find what the problem is. I'm running on RedHat Fedora. Thanks for your help.

Here is how I start asterisk: [root@asterisk asterisk]# /usr/sbin/safe_asterisk 2>&1 >/dev/null & safe_asterisk returns immediatly saying "Done" but asterisk still starts. Why doesn't safe_asterisk stay running? Thanks, Matthew

About two weeks ago there was a thread about asterisk suddenly dying - I posted a response that the same happens to my asterisk about once a month, sometimes more. Someone suggested using 'safe_asterisk' (and get hold of a core dump) which sounds like a good idea, but one thing I can't figure is how to get "module reload app_queue" executed automatically at startup?
