[Asterisk-Users] Can i do voice chat without using the hardware

[suresh kumar]

Hi,

Thanks a lot for your help.

After installing iaxComm, When I test Asterisk typing
# asterisk –vvvvc
                                                      
                         
I got a display like this (Not getting any CLI prompt)
                                                      
                         
 [chan_iax.so] => (Inter Asterisk eXchange)
  == Manager registered action IAX1peers
  == Parsing '/etc/asterisk/iax1.conf': Not found (No
such file or directory
)
                                                      
                         
Why i am getting this error? How can i tackle this
error?
Before installing the iaxComm, i will get the CLI
prompt. Now it's not getting it. So please help me to
solve this problem.


Thanks & Regards,
Sur
