What is aster-install

aster-install is a shell script for Linux that will install Asterisk with the necessary add-ons for Asterisk to function with dahdi, faxing and Asterisk Analyser. The shell script is designed to run on a clean installation of CentOS based on the instructions CentOS_Installation.

What does aster-install install

aster-install will install the following components plus any dependencies:

What does not get installed

Nothing further planed to add to aster-script.

How do I install and activate the script

To install the script copy and past the following lines to your Linux CLI

wget http://www.klaverstyn.com.au/asterisk/script/aster-install.sh
wget http://www.klaverstyn.com.au/asterisk/script/aster-values
chmod +x aster-install.sh

Edit the file aster-values to suite your needs, then run aster-install.sh

./aster-install.sh

What is aster-values

aster-values is the data file that contains the version of the applications that you want to install.

Editing aster-values

The file has the following sections:

  • Asterisk version
  • Codec type for sound files
  • MySQL user and database details
  • phpsysinfo
  • OS updates
  • Internode repository
  • email address for logwatch
  • spanDSP version
  • FOP version and username/password details

Once you open the file and look at its contents it becomes self explanatory.

Testing Installation

asterisk -r

If you are entered into the Asterisk CLI then you know Asterisk has been installed correctly.

If you see a dash under the g729 or g723 column then that codec is not installed.
