Building Elastix MT via RPM Repo
-
That is correct, Elastix is probably the most popular distribution of Asterisk. However in the last two years Elastix has stumbled pretty dramatically and their newer products after Elastix 2.4 have been very problematic.
-
The NTG guys definitely lean toward Elastix. I thought FreePBX was easier to use.

Elastix has a HUGE non-english speaking install base.
After PBX in a Flash it is the oldest actively developed Asterisk based distro out there.
The FreePBX GUI runs both Elastix 2.X and Elastix 4.X as well as the FreePBX and PBX in a Flash distros.

FreePBX stays up to date. Elastix does not.
That plays a lot into the look and feel of the systems.

Try installing FreePBX without using their ISO, it has some larger complications.

I've seen the same said for Elastix, but it seems that 4.0 at least only misses a couple things based on your recent post.

Better than MT at least. That didn't work at all.

LOL, now that's funny. The very first PBX I stood up with a self installed FreePBX on Cloud@Cost, and yes, it was painful, but after 4 days I did get it working.

@Dashrender Was most of that 4 days spent waiting for their systems to write your information to disk? lol.

LOL - nice! nah, back in the beginning things were a bit more usable, it was digging through forums looking for solutions to problems, how to install xyz to make things work.. what settings to change, yada yada.

Where are you running into the issue? What command is failing?

Welcome to the community, by the way @norojoshi

Other than offering CentOS 6, no I do not believe so.

mount -o loop /tmp/elastixmt.iso /mnt/elastixmt
Thank you for your prompt reply i am not being able to mount the ISO getting error
[root@77167 tmp]# mount -o loop /tmp/elastixmt.iso /mnt/elastixmt
mount: Could not find any loop device. Maybe this kernel does not know
about the loop device? (If so, recompile or `modprobe loop'.) -
@norojoshi Ah, okay. So that should be fixable. Sounds like the loopback mount is missing. Could be a bad kernel. What VPS host are you on? What kernel are you running?

The VPS is Datsoft Networks then? Their phone number is from St. Louis. Interesting that I have never heard of them.
