I am running centos 5.4 myself. What I have for the chkconfig, mentioned 
above is:
Mon Jun 07-12:29:27-root at eiji.tsukinokage.net:cgi-bin> chkconfig --list 
asterisk
asterisk        0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off

You should see the same thing if it is set up correctly. If it is in 
there, try service asterisk start, and verify it is still running. If it 
isn't, check /var/log/asterisk/messages and that should give you an idea 
as to what killed it.

FOP is in an error error state is most likely due to channel's not being 
found, and thus the pattern matches in the code, at the lines specified 
are not matching anything and causing errors with the perl code that 
runs the FOP server. This points back to the PBX's configuration. You 
can look into what FOP is looking for in the op_server.cfg file and see 
if your manager is allowing connections, etc, for the program to work.

My suggestion is make sure that asterisk by itself works in terms of 
starting up cleaning, then verify amportal/FreePBX is configured and 
working correctly, then FOP should work correctly after that.

Seann
