[App_rpt] Asterisk segfaults after installation

I rest my case… Steve R, Jim Dude, Steve H, I apologize for speaking my mind on your list… But if this Steve T “person” (and I use the term loosely) stays a member of this list… please remove my address… I refuse to have anything to do with a wanna be HAM! He has a license but not the true Spirit! In my opinion! If I have anything to share I will do it off list!

Thanks,

Not sure why you felt the need to double post?

Anyways, see comments inline.

Boy Marshall, You hit the nail on the head!!! Steve T. comes off as being

Um, when did Marshall say that? How did he hit the nail on the head?
It is what it is. If you feel “not good enough” then work through it
with a real “Elmer” or your clergyman or psychologist.

I am new to the App-Rpt stuff� and I
have followed the instructions for all the styles of insta
ll, Both Manual
and EVB� when I had a problem, not one of the developers or other ham on
the list had any issue with sharing and helping me through the hard areas!!

I am sorry the learning curve is hard for you. Personally, I taught
myself Asterisk seven years ago, before any of these GUIs existed. I
did everything from the command line and compiled everything from
source.

Any real Asterisk pro knows the trade-offs of GUIs and all the extra
garbage that must be installed and running to make that GUI function,
and any of those processes can bring down your server or leave a
security hole a hacker could drive a truck though.

This EVB/ACID stuff would not be tolerated on the Asterisk lists and
without Asterisk, I am not sure what app_rpt would do for you.

Did they help you through building a custom kernel, only loading
&
gt; services and software that are needed for the task and no more? Did
they teach you how to secure your machine properly? Did they teach
you how to obtain maximum uptime on your system? These are all the
basics of the “Best Practices” when building any system.

Great.

That is what HAM is all about� soooo if Steve T. wants to learn� Or even if
he wants to share to better the project� he would be welcome to do so�.
But Steve T.'s attitude is PISSING US HAMS OFF!! Well this HAM anyway!

I already posted a working HOWTO. Again, you should speak to a
clergyman or psychologist about your obvious anger disorders.

Steve T. This IS a HAM Community� Made By HAMS� so do us a favor� go find
an Elmer and get your license� maybe you might get a clue as to what we are
really doing her
e anyway! Well, we can only hope!

Wrong, it is an “Asterisk Repeater Controller” community. If you had
attended the app_rpt track at Astricon, you would have heard Steve
Henke speak to the commercial side of the project. I think I still
have the handout with commercial uses included.

Anyways, if it helps you feel warm and fuzzy, I am KB3OPB, LMAO.

I have no idea what you are doing, but I am a systems integrator and
have been doing Linux, Asterisk, MS, Cisco, and just about every kind
of phone system you can name doing consulting for many years.

My guess is you are just playing. I do this for fun and a living.

PS. Just so Steve T. Knows� An Elmer is a Mentor!

My “Elmer” co-authored SNMP and c
o-founded PSINet.

Steve,

This is not a HAM community, it is an Asterisk based repeater community. I
have it in use for commercial non HAM operations that you as a HAM are
restricted from.

So, why in your original post did you state this?

“Is it because HAM people are assumed to be dumb? Couldn’t a shell script
be w
ritten to pull down known versions of zaptel/dahdi, libpri, and Jim’s
branch, and install?”

Seems to me you were referring to the “HAM” people.

As far as money goes, yeah, the defunct Dingotel company probably put in
most of the effort and money for the idea to be ripped off.

Your reaching now! Boy you sure like pulling things out of thin air.

The URI is most likely infringing on a >patent or several but that is
besides the point.

If you are so worried about infringement, then why are you using the URI?

Sounds like you are talking ou
t of both sides of your mouth.

I am precipitating the fix, not creating the problem. What problem have I
created? Again, why so much pushback?

If you are “precipitating” a fix, why are you lasing out on the remailer
about it?

Simply post a fix with the information on the remailer. That’s all you need
to do.

I paid for three URIs, that was in U$D, so much for free.

You paid for hardware NOT software. Do you know the difference???

When you bought the URI hardware, it did not say anything about FREE
software support!

When you buy a Motorola radio, they do not giv
e you the programming software
for free?

No, you have to buy it.

Now I expect to be able to us that hardware on the OS/platform of my
choosing. Am I out off line?

And you can! You will just need to figure it out for yourself!

All OS platforms are not supported and there have never been a claim that
they are!

Buying hardware does not make you entitled to FREE software support for
whatever OS or idea you can come up with in your own mind.

Since when is asking what the logic of be corralled into anything
complaining? If there is a logical answer rather than vague answers such as
“a labor of love” and “difficult >to do”, then I am open to hearing it,
otherwise it is propaganda to someone’s agenda.

Well your original post did not come across as a question of logic, it came
across as complaining.

Maybe you need to learn to express yourself better in email when you post
messages on a remailer.

I logically want to be clear which it is.

HOWTO:

  1. Install your favorite flavor of Linux and configure it your way,
    optimize your way, secure your way.
  1. Install prerequisites for Asterisk
  1. Go into /usr/src directory on your linux box # cd /usr/src
  1. b
    ) Download the latest SVN stable release of libpri and zaptel and
    Jim’s branch # svn checkout >http://svn.digium.com/svn/libpri/branches/1.4
    libpri-1.4 # svn checkout http://svn.digium.com/svn/zaptel/branches/1.4
    zaptel-1.4 # svn >checkout
    ?http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/jdixon/chan_usbradio-1.4/

asterisk_usbradio

  1. cd into each of the above directories and read any READMEs or similar
    all caps files.
  1. cd into libpri-1.4

make clean

make && make install

  1. cd into zaptel-1.4

make clean

make && make install

  1. cd into asterisks_usbradio

make clean <

./configure

“make menuselect” and make the selections you want.

make && make install

  1. Edit required files
  1. Start Asterisk on the console with core dump on and a bit of verbose #
    asterisk �vvvvvvvvvvvgc

Someone please test this as I have, and post to the websites pushing EVB or
ACID.

How about you test it and post it to your own website!

This will be my last reply regarding this subject. I am not wasting anymore
of my time with

your “logical questions” (rants) on this email list.
