 I followed the post on Asterisk on OpenWRT: Asterisk on OpenWRT part 2. Now, I report my process and problems here.

vi /etc/ipkg.conf (see updated info)

src whiterussian http://downloads.openwrt.org/whiterussian/packages
src acvs http://12.176.248.4/ipkg
dest root /
dest ram /tmp

ipkg update

ipkg install asterisk-cvs

vi /etc/asterisk/modules.conf (slim modules)

[modules]
autoload=yes
noload => pbx_gtkconsole.so
;load => pbx_gtkconsole.so
noload => pbx_kdeconsole.so

noload => cdr_mysql.so
noload => chan_alsa.so
;noload => chan_oss.so
[global]
; chan_modem.so=yes

Set asterisk startup (see update info)

Please see below problems I got in the installationi process.

1. When I run ipkg update, I got the following errors:

root@OpenWrt:/etc# ipkg update
Downloading http://openwrt.org/ipkg/Packages
wget: openwrt.org: Unknown host
Downloading http://12.176.248.4/ipkg/Packages

Run route -n, I saw that gateway was 0.0.0.0.  I’m actually using it behind my dlink router which has LAN ip 192.168.0.1. So I changed WRT ip to 192.168.0.100 with gateway 192.168.0.1. My computer is connected to one LAN port on WRT. Another cable connect another LAN port on WRT to dlink LAN port.

You could do it manually using the following commands or in the GUI:

nvram set lan_ipaddr=192.168.0.100
nvram set lan_gateway=192.168.0.1
nvram set lan_dns=192.168.0.1
where 192.168.0.1 is your gateway address
if you use WAN connection, use the same command with  wan_gateway and wan_dns

Then when I run “ipkg install asterisk-cvs” to install asterisk, I got an error “src openwrt http://openwrt.org/ipkg is unreachable”. But it seems asterisk was installed properly.

2. When I run asterisk, I got the same problem as in the comment of the post:

asterisk: can’t load library ‘libgcc_s.so.1′

and

asterisk: can’t load library ‘libssl.so.0.9.7′

ln -s /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.7

and

ln -s /lib/libc.so.0 /lib/libgcc_s.so.1

This solved the problems.

3. When I try to register user 3000 on asterisk server, I got an error message: Username/auth name mismatch.

In sip.conf, host = dynamic instead of host = xx.xx.xx.xx solved the problem.

4. Unable to connect to remote asterisk, can’t access to CLI with asterisk -r

Receiving the following error message:
Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk.ctl exist?)

/var/run/asterisk.ctl does exist and asterisk is running.

 The problem was:

 then add these lines to it or just uncomment them if already exist.

 [files]
astctlpermissions = 0660
astctlowner = asterisk
astctlgroup = pbx
astctl = asterisk.ctl

5. For the voicestick registering problem, I followed the post: http://www.asteriskextras.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=13&Itemid=2I will copy the post later.Comment by alen — February 4, 2007 @ 1:38 am | Edit This

Problems continued:

6. pap2 couldn’t register
nat = yes
problem solved.
5. 503: service unavailabe
I have sip.conf:[3000]
type = friend
context = default
username = 3000
host = dynamic
mailbox = 3000
dtmfmode = rfc2833
nat = yes

 

and

[3001]
type = friend
context = default
username = 3001
host = dynamic
mailbox = 3001
dtmfmode = rfc2833
nat = yes

extension.conf:

[internal]
exten => 3000,1,Dial(SIP/3000,30,Ttm)
exten => 3000,2,Playback(invalid)
exten => 3000,3,Hangup
exten => 3001,1,Dial(SIP/3001,30,Ttm)
exten => 3001,2,Playback(invalid)
exten => 3001,3,Hangup

Result:
3000 is fine.
3001, I got 503: service unavailable

Don’t know why. 

Update:

http://zandbelt.dyndns.org/asterisk.html

asterisk for whiterussian has been taken down. Asterisk for OpenWRT is now obsolete.

Kamikaze is now the official OpenWRT stable version. But it’m not sure if Kamikaze has a version for wrt54gs v1.0 v2.0 2.1.

In the links in http://lestblood.imagodirt.net/archives/106-Asterisk-on-OpenWRT-part-2.html, only http://12.176.248.4/ipkg is still available.

I put the following in the /etc/ipkg.conf:

src libncurses http://download2.berlios.de/pub/xwrt/packages
src acvs http://12.176.248.4/ipkg
dest root /
dest ram /tmp

It seems it works. Or use the openwrt download links.

src whiterussian http://downloads.openwrt.org/whiterussian/packages
src non-free http://downloads.openwrt.org/whiterussian/packages/non-free
src acvs http://12.176.248.4/ipkg
dest root /
dest ram /tmp

Start Asterisk automatically at startup

Add a simulink /etc/init.d/S60asterisk to asterisk

ln -s asterisk S60asterisk 

Then  put the following content in /etc/default/asterisk.

vi /etc/default/asterisk:

## startup options for /etc/init.d/asterisk

ENABLE_ASTERISK=”yes”
OPTIONS=”"

I checked later. It seems that if I make a simulink S99asterisk, it’ll work without vi /etc/default/asterisk: ln -s asterisk S60asterisk .
