The "<b>show version</b>" command returns : <b>Asterisk 1.4.25.1
built by root @</b><br>
(Danny) Your idea seems to be the safest one.<br>
<br>
This is what I'll do :<br>
1 - setup a <b>new virtual machine</b> with the same OS and version
as the <b>master server</b> where asterisk is installed.<br>
2 - <b>vm asterisk - </b>install the required libraries to compile
asterisk and other custom apps<br>
3 - <b>vm asterisk - </b>compile custom apps (app_mp4 ->
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://asteriskvideo.svn.sourceforge.net/">http://asteriskvideo.svn.sourceforge.net/</a>)<br>
4 - <b>vm asterisk - </b>compile asterisk 1.4.25 (my version is 25
and not 13) any good tutorial on this ? <br>
5 - <b>master asterisk - </b>backup <b> </b>server modules -
/usr/local/asterisk/modules/*.so <br>
6 - copy the newest compile modules from the <b>vm asterisk</b> to
the <b>master asterisk</b><br>
<br>
Questions:<br>
1 - Do I need to backup any other files besides
/usr/local/asterisk/modules/*.so ? <br>
2 - Will asterisk "assume" the new modules just by restarting it ?<br>
3 - if everything goes wrong can I restore asterisk by coping the
backup modules ?<br>
<br>
Any help will be very welcome,<br>
Happy 2012!<br>

<pre wrap="">The "safest" (IMO) method for installing new settings would be to download
1.4.13 (if you can find that old of an archive) and build it on another
machine, then copy the needed .so modules to /usr/local/asterisk/modules on
your running machine. You should be able to see if it was compiled or built
from an rpm by doing "show version" from CLI.

Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Recompile Asterisk
I'm sorry if I gave conflicting information but I didn't setup this specific
freepbx/asterisk and I'm not sure if it was compiled from source, probably
not, but I'll have to double check it the person that installed it. I know
that I currently running asterisk 1.4.13 + FreePBX
2.9.0.7 on CentOS 5 x64.
I need to compile app_mp4 and I've read that I need to compile asterisk from
source in order to achieve this, does this make any sense ?
I'm following a tutorial on how to compile app_mp4 at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://web.archive.org/web/20090322060930/http://sip.fontventa.com/content/v">http://web.archive.org/web/20090322060930/http://sip.fontventa.com/content/v</a>
iew/15/44/,
but I'm afraid to go ahead and lose my current freepbx/asterisk settings.
I'm pretty new to asterisk, based on this, some of my questions may not the
the million dollar questions..., basically, what I need is to install the
app_mp4 and several others apps and make sure the system config (extensions,
trunks, etc) is preserved.
any good advises ?
Thank you all,
regards
LL
