[asterisk-users] new server install errors starting asterisk

[Ott Rose]

well here is what i did to solve it but i still don't know why i had to or why my current config works.

i edited /etc/rc.local

old
touch /var/lock/subsys/local
/usr/local/sbin/amportal start


new
touch /var/lock/subsys/local
/usr/sbin/amportal start



keep in mind that my server that i have been using or months now has this
touch /var/lock/subsys/local
/usr/local/sbin/amportal start


can anyone explain this?

i wasn't trying to ignore your help. i just figured i would go back a version because it only takes a few minutes to install it and i know it works with my directions. this is a different file then the issue i was have in the post when i used 1.6.2. 

I just found that in /etc/rc.local in my working box i have this.

touch /var/lock/subsys/local
/usr/local/sbin/amportal start

in the server that is not working  i have the same text.

on the server that is not working /usr/local/sbin/ is empty

on the working server is working has amportal and fpbx


not sure why the files are not in there.

looks like amportal script should start asterisk for me.
