Building Elastix 4 via RPM Repo
-
The solution is to not use a product it's not going to be supported
-
@scottalanmiller After restarting several times, I finally made a snapshot on digital ocean just after downloading the ISO. It feels like I have saved my game just before a big boss.

any luck @rialejo ?
I may try 3.5 instead of 4... -

I may try 3.5 instead of 4...There is no 3.5. The 3 series was renamed MT and is meant for a completely different purpose. If you want 4, but an older version, you need the 2 series.
Elastix MT is for multi-tenant hosting environments.
Elastix 4 is the as of yet unreleased updated to Elastix 2.5 which is a standard single tenant PBX.
-
Oh yeah, Elastix 4 just dropped. I've only worked with RC3. Getting this up and running will be a much higher priority now. Stay tuned
-
@nick cool! so now we must to undertund why that step is not working... No, not yet... im was tring to edit the password but im not sure about the file that content that... i mean in some parts say a command with a file address... but giveme no such file:
sqlite3 /var/www/db/acl.db "UPDATE acl_user SET md5_password='5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99' WHERE name='admin'"
-
@rialejo I've seen this fix --- it looks promising, but in my asterisk database, I don't have a table called acl_users. ..getting close.
-
@nick That was my point... I suppose that exist any file that have this specific information to edit... now the work it’s to find it, to edit like the command say... until now I can’t find anything else... if have lucky I will post here...
-
@nick I think that i have the solution!
I copied from the other Elastix 2.5 the file with size 0 in the Elastix 4, and paste on it... is not the most fabulous solution but works... help me to check if all its working... because its the firt time that I open it...
The file address is : /var/www/db
the file that i copied was:
acl.db
iptables.db
menu.db
register.db
dashboard.db
samples.db
settings.dbIt was for my case, maybe it dont copy whit the same issue...
Try and let me know!!
I´m thinking that the best is to run the Elastix 4 over VirtualBox, and copy the file from there and paste on the final server... in my case is in a hosted server... just to be sure that all the file match perfect with the version.
Regards!
-
I can confirm that replacing all of these files with their equivalent versions from a working version of Elastix 2.5 does indeed allow me to log in, and I can (for the first time) see Elastix 4.
Not overly comfortable with this as a "solution" but thanks for sharing
-
I almost immediately begin experiencing errors such as:
"Error de conexion a la base de datos - Array ( [0] => HY000 [1] => 8 [2] => attempt to write a readonly database )"and it is does not seem possible to install addons such as "Call Center" ... Addons menu has error "Query Error SELECT * FROM action_tmp"
When installing "Call Center": The column 'has_account' does not exist and could not be created
The backend does look very nice though.
-
@nick For that reason, I recommend to copy from the same version but in a VirtualBox... that´s the common and easy way to run and get all the file that can match exactly with this installation... untill now it is the only way that i know to full run...
Regards!
-
So in order to get Elastix 4 running, all I need is a copy of Elastix 4 that is running. Gotcha.
-
Im not sure where you are trying to install the Elastix 4, in my case im installing over hosted server... so I need to use a Repo and all this kind of things that is totally diferent if you install the Elastix 4 in a virtual machine on VirtualBox in your current PC... Install Elastix over virtualbox its too easy and simple and it dont take more than 4 minute to have all working. When you have this installation running, you can connect by ssh, coppy the file arround db and paste on the installation in the hosted solution... that was my point.
-
I'm trying on DIgital Ocean - maybe I'll give virtualbox a try tonight
-
Installed Elastix 4 via VM-Player. Can confirm that installation of Call Centre add-on is smooth until the progress bar finishes, then it is not installed, and produces an error when trying to restart the installation. Can successfully create and register extensions in the virtual machine.
Copied the contents of /var/www/db from this install to a fresh, rpm-based install on remote server.
Can login, and create extensions, but cannot register them. Also unable to install call centre add-on. -
@rialejo @scottalanmiller -- Anyone know if the call center module will be compatible with the new version? Maybe this is too hopeful...

Have not heard yet.

@nick For CallCenter... I don't recommend to use Elastix 4 or MT, that kind of platform is thinking to admin a lot of companies from the same server, but in the case of CallCenter I recommend you to use 2.5, is a more fiable in my opinion i don't know what think scott about it...
Remember that the version 4 o MT its about Multi Tennant but is not the upgrade for 2.5 it going in different way...

Elastix 4 is the upgrade from 2.5. They are the same product. Any case where you wanted 2.5, you'll want 4 (once it is tested and ready.)
Elastix MT is the multitenant meant to be used differently.
The two current products are MT for multi and 4 for single.
