[Asterisk-bsd] Hello List :) New to Asterisk not new to FreeBSD

Sat Dec 3 22:29:31 CST 2005

Spoke to soon.

Installing from the port seemed to work fine.  But I then would up in an
endless loop:

/usr/ports/devel/pwlib/work/pwlib/include/ptlib/contain.inl:419: warning:
right-hand operand of comma has no effect

So I tried your advice.  (with a -v so I could get more info):

patrick# pkg_add -rv asterisk
looking up ftp.freebsd.org
connecting to ftp.freebsd.org:21
setting passive mode
opening data connection
initiating transfer
Error: FTP Unable to get
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.4-release/Latest/asterisk.tbz:
File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
pkg_add: unable to fetch '
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.4-release/Latest/asterisk.tbz'
by URL
pkg_add: 1 package addition(s) failed
patrick#

Not sure where to go from here???

help!
