[Asterisk-bsd] New to Asterisk...But Just Let Me Keep My FreeBSD

Sun May 28 15:54:29 MST 2006

Yeah, I noticed that myself after sending the instructions off ;-)...It would appear that the patch is still lacking the fix, not sure why.  Might want to take the advice of some others on this list and use the rawplayer or an alternate mp3 player.

  Aaron,

  Please forgive me for being such a bother but there's something I'm just not doing correctly here.

  I did these commands. Perhaps you can point out what I'm not doing right:

  # cp patch-file.txt /usr/ports/audio/mpg123/files/patch-mpg123.c.
  # cd /usr/ports/audio/mpg123
  # make install clean

  This ran for a while but then stopped saying the port was already installed and that I need to make deinstall and then make reinstall. So I did just that and it reinstalled. But when I stop asterisk it still shows mpg123 running loose and I can only kill it with a kill -9 command.

  Again, sorry to be such a bother but I'd really like to use mpg123 if possible and without the bug that appears to be happening.

    Save the patch to $PORTS/audio/mpg123/files/patch-mpg123.c, and rebuild/reinstall the port.  Otherwise, you can save the patch to somewhere on your computer, cd to the source directory for mpg123, and "patch < $PATCHFILE".

      Thanks Aaron,

      Your advice is appreciated. But I guess my newbie-ness is showing. I did a man on the patch command but I'm not clear on how I should do it.

      If I patch it by hand, will I just insert this text anywhere in the source code. I really don't know what I'm doing here but I can copy and paste with the best of them. If you could either clue me in as to the syntax for the patch command or point me to the correct file to insert this text into I think I could get through it. 

      Thanks again.

          Thanks. I saw this patch but was not sure how to implement it. Can you offer some more detail.

            Dr. Rich Murphey posted a patch on the 23rd, I haven't tried it, but it sounded like it should fix your mpg123 problems.  You can kill -9 mpg123 anytime you like though.

              Asterisk 1.2.7.1 running on an old Dell Optiplex Pentium 220 MgHz, 64MB of RAM with FreeBSD-6.1-RELEASE

              I only recently discovered Asterisk and was indeed happy to find that I would not have to build a Linux server to run it and could keep hacking along happily with my FreeBSD servers. I've gone through the install and have made a simple setup with an X-Lite phone from a WinXP machine on the LAN. That's cool and of course I am loaded with questions on how to get more out of this thing. But I'll start with a few that seem to be related to FreeBSD first.

              There seems to be some kind of issue with the mpg123 player. When I start Asterisk there are some warning messages about it. And what seems to be worse is that the mpg123 processes do not stop nor can I kill them once I exit Asterisk. Is this a real issue or should I just ignore it. The music-on-hold seems to work but there are times when it is choppy. I found a work around for this using rawplayer and I'm just getting it compiled right now, but I'd really prefer to use mpg123 as I don't want to have to convert MP3 files before using them with rawplayer.

              Any advice on this as well as any other tips, tricks for running Asterisk on FreeBSD will be welcomed.
