Dave, I was hoping you might be able to point me in the right direction to fix a problem I've had with my Asterisk install.
I have a Pogoplug V2 (Pink) with Arch Linux ARM install installed on a USB HD and it has been working great.
I followed the instructions and installed Asterisk from the files you listed in an earlier post:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
I got a few bits working.
pacman -U http://myplugbox.com/asterisk/asterisk- ... pkg.tar.gz
pacman -U http://myplugbox.com/asterisk-addons/as ... pkg.tar.gz
')
The asterisk package installs with no errors but when I install the asterisk-addons package I get this warning message:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
warning: directory permissions differ on root/
filesystem: 750 package: 755
warning: directory permissions differ on var/lib/asterisk/documentation/
filesystem: 755 package: 750
')
I didn't think much of the warning messages and then I edited the extensions.conf and sip.conf file as per the aforementioned instructions. When I try to run asterisk, I get this message:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
[torrent@Arch Linux ARM install ~]$ sudo /etc/rc.d/asterisk start
:: Starting Asterisk [BUSY]
Unable to access the running directory (Permission denied). Changing to '/' for compatibility.
[DONE]
')
I've checked the permissions on the following directories:
/etc/asterisk
/usr/lib/asterisk
/var/run/asterisk
/var/lib/asterisk
/var/log/asterisk
and everything looks good to me. I've made sure the asterisk user and/or group owns these directories and has write permissions on each of them, thinking that might be the problem.
I installed Arch Linux ARM install on a buddy's Dockstar and asterisk and asterisk-addons installed with no warnings and runs with no error message. I followed the same instructions for both installs. I even tried a new fresh Arch Linux ARM install install on a USB stick on my Pogoplug and I got the same warnings on asterisk-addons and the same error trying to run asterisk.
I did some searching but I wasn't able to come up with any anything other than a permissions problem.
Did I miss something? Is there any way that you know of to track down where the permissions are bad?
Any help would be appreciated and thanks for all your work on getting asterisk running on these cool little linux boxes.
Jeff
