Hi All,
Good Morning. I am Prabhakaran from India. Struggling to get a grasp on Asterisk for the past 15 years but still couldn’t. Any Asterisk Trainers Available Here? Thanks :slight_smile:

Google is your friend…

The first edition of the book was called Asterisk: The Future of Telephony before it became renamed in the 3rd ed. Not sure I’d recommend the first ed as it’s really dated now, but if you insist, you can find all of it’s contents at Asterisk™: The Future of Telephony

It’s going to mention really old stuff that may not be applicable now and you will be unlikely to get any support for them on the forum here. I’m still learning Asterisk and find that a combination of the 5th Edition together with the YouTube learning series from “The VoIP guys” was very helpful in getting me started

Thanks for contributing to getting another person getting further along with asterisk… I joined from the ground floor that’s why I suggested he started from there to get the basics down …

Thanks again

Hi Edo,

I totally understand. I started via the FreePBX “shortcut” and I get where you are coming from. The older version of the book were very good in getting a beginner started. The challenge I have with the older editions is that they mention old tech such as Dahdi and chan_sip. It’s very easy for a beginner to run down that hole and struggle to transition to the newer Asterisk version. I find that I’m able to easily transition to the older versions having had knowledge (albeit still learning) of the newer versions.

The Main Problem in Mastering the 5th Edition is the outdated commands present in the following shell script and the Ansbile Playbook:

Dependencies

and 4 pages long ansible script…
Can someone please update both the Dependencies.sh and starfish.yml
Sincere Thanks from my side for the continous support. Thanks :slight_smile:

I’m trying to come up with a bash file for use on Debian 12. May take a couple of days as I need to test and ensure it reliably works. I can share with you when I have a working solution

So? What functional differences can you find between the two?

You have specifically asked about a very old edition of a book on Asterisk, so
you shouldn’t be surprised when it references things like MySQL, which has
since been forked to MariaDB.

From a user perspective there is almost zero difference between the two.

I am getting “No Package MySQL-python available.”

16

try the package python3-mysqldb

17

Same: “No package pyhton3-mysqldb available”

@shafty, there is a website called Google.com… whenever you find in your installation a message sort of like “No Package XXXX available” you go to said web site, enter the message and research all the finds in the first 2 pages. You should be able to find the solution after you do your research.
