[asterisk-users] Can't compile DAHDI - wrong kernel source

[leonimar cape]

Try also installing the devel version of your kernel.

I manage to find the link below:

http://download.openvz.org/kernel/branches/rhel5-2.6.18/028stab064.7/ovzkernel-devel-2.6.18-128.2.1.el5.028stab064.7.i686.rpm


Try installing it and then recompile the dahdi module.

Hope this helps.

No.

The DAHDI Makefile looks for the kernel source by default in:

  /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build

This is normally a symlink that points to the directory with the
(possibly partial) kernel source tree.

It seems that the kernel package you have installed did not set up this
symlink. You can create it yourself.

Alternatively, set set KSRC explicitly to the (full path to) the kernel
tree:

  make KSRC=/usr/src/<whatever>
