[Asterisk-Users] MYSQL asterisk configuration

[Terry Goodwin]

:-)
 
flamed?  I hope not.  
 
I have already started reading up on mysql and c and Perl and xml and
java and aaaarrrrrgggghhhh...   So many things I need to get working so
little knowledge of coding and so little time.  All I can offer anyone
right now is good will and future benefits from anything code we
eventually develop.  I just need help getting started.
 
Oh well,  if someone wants to flame me so be it, Ill get over it and
they will too.  :-)

Here come the flames.....watch out.


Terry, I would suggest picking up a book about MySQL at Borders.  Not
a
thick one, but a starter.  There are many sites on the Net that can
help
too..

I would suggest: http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/

The first link should get you started.  I think reading some of this
and
refering back to wiki will help put the puzzle together.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] MYSQL asterisk configuration


Hello all.

I am a little (allot) lost on my next hurdle in getting an asterisk
system
built.  

I would like to get my asterisk servers configured exclusively from
database.  I have read through the wiki on this subject but once again
I
find that there is a certain level of knowledge that is assumed.   As
of now
I know nothing about databases in general and specifically MYSQL.  I do
not
know how to set up the database structure (SQL commands, scripts?) for
the
required databases.  I think I have the add-on stuff done right but
there
have been a few conflicting documents and comments in the mailing list
regarding this.  

Bottom line...  

I am rather confused as to where to start,  what direction to go in and
how
the details are done.  I am, however,  willing to learn.  I just need
to do
this in a compressed time frame as I need a really cool "show peace" to
eval
so that I can get some $ thrown at it. 

Future needs will be Netware Edirectory integration at some level, 
mainly
looking to pull name and phone # out of edirectory and present it to a
cisco
7940/60 via XML.  I would love to be able to link the asterisk
database
directly (ldap, dirxml, etc) to edirectory at some point so that
changes
made in edirectory are sent to the appropriate asterisk system.
Voicemail
networking (the ability to forward voicemails to a user or group of
users on
remote asterisk systems and possibly an AMIS feature that will allow
networking with existing avaya/octel voicemail systems until I can
replace
them with asterisk).  Providing high reliability.  I have been looking
to
have two asterisk servers (primary and secondary) share a PRI but Im
still
not real clear on how to achieve full redundancy of the server yet.

... and finally,  at some point  (when I can prove the potential of
asterisk) HIRE A FREAKING DEVELOPER so I can do whatever I want with
the
system without causing myself to have an aneurism by trying to read
(much
less figure out) source code.  Although I was successful in modifying
mime-construct to change the (from: ) field of the email.  Yeah I know,
 its
Perl script...  But I was still pretty proud of myself.

If you actually read my entire screed I offer my sincere thanks.  If
not,
well, your not reading this anyway.

Respectfully,
Terry
