Hi Michael,

yes, I do edit the files directly in "/etc/logrotate.d/". They are stored in UnionFS.

Re: [Astlinux-users] logrotate configuration

[Michael K. <mic...@ip...>]

We also have some other log files that we want to rotate e.g. a web gui audit log.
Same question on the best way to configure this. It would be nice if I could do it in /mnt/kd somehow.

Subject: [Astlinux-users] logrotate configuration

Hi Group

I'm wanting to change some log rotation configuration for Asterisk logging and just wondering the best way.
I want to change the log size from 100k to 10m in /etc/logrotate.d/asterisk.
Shall I just edit this file directly?

[Michael K. <mic...@ip...>]

Hi Group

I'm wanting to change some log rotation configuration for Asterisk logging and just wondering the best way.
I want to change the log size from 100k to 10m in /etc/logrotate.d/asterisk.
Shall I just edit this file directly?

    Since you are running your own custom repository, you can do whatever you want.

    For example, just today I was pulling upgrades from three different URL's to get 1.3.10, the 1.4-beta and my latest build 1.4-dev to compare stuff.

Michael,

If the current version matches the Repo URL -> ver file then no upgrade is available.

If the current version is different from the Repo URL -> ver file the "upgrade" will take place, no matter what version it is.

Since you are running your own custom repository, you can do whatever you want.

For example, just today I was pulling upgrades from three different URL's to get 1.3.10, the 1.4-beta and my latest build 1.4-dev to compare stuff.

Re: [Astlinux-users] Asterisk 13.29

Thanks Lonnie that worked. 
So just to confirm, when you 'Check for new firmware' it just compares your current version with the ver file in the repository for the board type you are using and will use this firmware even if it's a downgrade?

Hi Michael,

If you have never upgraded the firmware image, then there is no "Previous" to revert to.

1) Upgrade the image (without rebooting afterwards) to 1.3.10 "13se" (or any different version)

2) Change your Prefs "Repository URL" to your desired Asterisk "13" repository

3) Upgrade the image again, but this time reboot afterwards.

Keep in mind a lot of pjsip modules will be loading unless you "noload" them in asterisk/modules.conf .

[Astlinux-users] Asterisk 13.29

[Michael K. <mic...@ip...>]

Hi Guys

I have a system built on 1.3.7.1SE which I would like to move to 1.3.7.1 (non SE).
I have previously done this by reverting to previous version, change repository URL to non SE and then upgrade but I cant do this.
Is there another way to move to the non SE version.

I could probably upgrade to 1.3.10SE to give me my wanted Asterisk version but Im not quite ready to do that yet.

Michael Knill

Re: [Astlinux-users] DAHDI cards

[Lonnie A. <li...@lo...>]

Gonzalo, we appreciate the thought, but sadly we have no idea where the pa...@kr... payments go to, so feel free to reverse that payment if you can.

We have tried to get the pa...@kr... signature removed from the Sourceforge mailinglist but it seems no one related to the current project has admin-enough permissions on the old Sourceforge site.

There was discussion about some donation method to help cover our AWS server costs, but that never happened.  Currently Darrick Hartman (or his company TechNosis, Inc.) is covering the hosting costs.

Sorry for the confusion.

Hi Ionel and Gonzalo,

I patched the dahdi-linux build to include PCI card support for: wctdm24xxp, wctdm and wcfxo

Info:
https://www.astlinux-project.org/dev.html

With the console port, use the CLI to upgrade via the appropriate Pre-Release Repository URL for your Asterisk version.

If you want to, revert back to your previous image with "upgrade-run-image revert" and "kernel-reboot" CLI commands.

In theory, it should just work.

Please post your test results here.

Hi,

Just in case it helps, there seems someone was able to compile last dahdi version  v3.1.0 and make it work on a modern kernel with a few changes in code:

[Gonzalo I. <gon...@ho...>]

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your answer, I understand it and that analog lines are disappearing in most areas and specifically on professional environments (it's the same here in Europe) but expected still support for home / SOHO users and less developped areas; perhaps not new developments for old hardware but at least keeping support for them...one of the reasons I like Linux is that is a way of avoiding programmed obsolescence.

We'll have to adapt again in the name of progress...

Regards and keep your excellent work.

Hi Gonzalo

Unfortunately everything has a life and we are forced to change because it becomes too difficult to support moving forward.
In my country (Australia), analogue lines are basically dead and I have never actually supported an analogue line (FXO) in the 10 years I have been playing with Asterisk.

I really can't understand stopping dahdi support for these cards as they are still easily found at low prices on AliExpress and others and the cheapest way to connect an Asterisk box to PSTN lines/devices (even cheaper than ATA boxes and without the need of an external device).

Announcing Pre-Release Version: astlinux-1.4-4801-574be0

The next AstLinux version will be 1.4.0, most notably switching to the Linux kernel 4.19.x LTS series.

Much testing needs to be done, if you have a non-standard box (HP Thin Client, unique China box, etc.) we would encourage you to test.  Be certain you have console access, using the CLI to upgrade to the pre-release version.  Possibly type "dmesg -H" to view the logs and note anything weird, particularly Broadcom or Realtek NIC related.  Revert back to your previous image with "upgrade-run-image revert" and "kernel-reboot" CLI commands.

While we do not suggest this specific pre-release is production ready, some of the developers are using it in production.

** IMPORTANT NOTICE

-- DAHDI is now version 3.1.0 to support the new kernel, as such previous DAHDI_HFCS and RHINO drivers are no longer supported.

** The AstLinux Team is regularly upgrading packages containing security and bug fixes as well as adding new features of our own.

Re: [Astlinux-users] DAHDI cards

[Lonnie A. <li...@lo...>]

Hi Ionel,

The good news is the 'wctdm24xxp' kernel driver still exists in DAHDI 3.1.0, but they removed support for the non-PCIe cards.

I'm fairly confident this trivial patch should restore support for your TDM410P:
https://github.com/astlinux-project/astlinux/commit/d93bbaa8b70b430ee269c2144714c1fe8d01059d

I'm rebuilding the pre-releases now including this patch ... I'll let you know here when you can test to make sure the TDM410P still works for you.

Re: [Astlinux-users] DAHDI cards

[Michael K. <li...@mk...>]

If a patch doesn‘t work you could easily replace the card with cheap Cisco SPA ATAs.
E.g. SPA112 with 2x FXS.

Hi Ionel,

I think we could add a patch to re-add the "wctdm24xxp" on DAHDI 3.1.0.

Curious, what hardware is this running on ?
