straight from the site: [asterisknow.org/install-related](http://asterisknow.org/install-related) Here are my default config files I use http.conf: [general] enabled=yes bindaddr=0.0.0.0 bindport=8088 prefix=gui enablestatic=yes manager.conf: [general] enabled=yes webenabled=yes port=5038 bindaddr=0.0.0.0 [bkruse] secret=blah read=system,call,log,verbose,command,agent,user,config,originate,read,write write=system,call,log,verbose,command,agent,user,config,originate,read,write make sure you change [bkruse] to something for you, and secret=blah to a good password. also you can go to the asterisk-gui directory and run make checkconfig and see what else it says. If everything is ok, then you probably have a permissions problem, and need to chown +R asterisk /var/lib/asterisk ---

Asterisk GUI 1.0/2.0 currently is working fine with Asterisk version 1.4. You may have version 1.6. ---

Any idea thanks for the help[/quote] Mate, Did you ever figure out the looping issue?! I am having the same problem on my end. Very frustrating! I am using a FQDM (not IP), all permissions are root, etc. Thank you for any (ANY!) thoughts you may have, Shea ---

Try opening up a terminal (or ssh into the box) and do ```auto tail -f /var/log/asterisk/full OR tail -f /var/log/asterisk/messages ``` Are there any errors or loops? ---

Any idea thanks for the help[/quote] hi, This is due to the fact of a missing .conf file somewhere in /etc/asterisk /etc/dadhi AsteriskGUI does not create them and does not display a clear message about it. ---

I am also stuck in this web log in loop: “checking write permission for gui folder” I have documented my steps exactly and continue to get this error even with the latest svn version 4503 of the GUI 2 Step by step brand new build on Debian has this looping error: [N3NCY.com/UNIX/Debian/Asterisk-1.6x.htm](http://www.N3NCY.com/UNIX/Debian/Asterisk-1.6x.htm) Any additional fixes or thoughts on this? ---

Hurray, this svn version “2.0.4” does not have the “checking write permission for gui folder” bug! cd /var/local svn co [svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk-gui/tags/2.0.4/](http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk-gui/tags/2.0.4/) asterisk-gui cd asterisk-gui ./configure make make install Now I can log into the GUI 2 and I see this new error: Uptime : Not Found The requested URL was not found on this server. All this work to have a GUI was in hopes that I could build an H.323 trunk. On the “Trunks” menu under “VOIP Trunks” I can only add: SIP or IAX I have OpenH323 installed, but I guess the new GUI 2.x can’t add H323? ☹ ---

[quote=“aberrio”]Install dadhi from svn, if you do not have harware is ok. I dhad same issue, after installing dadhi driver, problem solved Regards AL[/quote] I used to find that Asterisk GUI was not so happy with dahdi (Used to read there was no compatibility at this time) So I used to install zaptel instead of dahdi seems to work
