[asterisk-users] Function SHELL not registered

[Michael Jepson]

Adding live_dangerously did the trick. Thanks! But how dangerous is Asterisk living now ?

If you just need the name of the system it may be contained in the variable ${SYSTEMNAME}.
This is assuming you have the systemname set in asterisk.conf

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Main+Configuration+File
That said, for SHELL support you probably need to set :

live_dangerously = yes
Also in your asterisk.conf

Even weirder, when I check in asterisk, using "core show functions", I can see the function SHELL right there.
From what I can find, the call is made from a conf. file, as grep shows:

globals.conf: G_server=${SHELL(hostname)}

Is this even correct? The config files are from a much older version of asterisk, which I am trying to update.

I have rebuilt a new version, making sure func_shell was selected, but I am still getting this error.

Did you include func_shell in your Asterisk build?

Fortunately, it's no biggie to build a missing module, because the "make"
command explicitly keeps track of everything it has already done and does not need to do again.  Just cd into the folder with your Asterisk source, run `make menuselect` and select "func_shell"  (under dialplan functions).  Then run `make` and finally `make install`.
