Asterisk seems to hang the VM on restart

Asterisk Asterisk Support

I am trying to run Asterisk 13.6.0 on a LinuxMint 17.2 Oracle VirtualBox VM. I use the installation instructions on the wiki. I am not using DAHDI or libpri. The installation, configure, install_prereqs, make and make install seem to run happily. When I shutdown the VM and restart it, it hangs midway through the startup - early enough I can’t seem to break in to see what is hanging or get to the file system to look at any logs. I have repeated the process twice with the same results.

After the make install are there other things that need to be done that would cause the system to hang?

Thanks

One of the things I’ve noticed while using VirtualBox is that the network, by default it NAT and I’ve had issues on a flat network. Try changing to Bridged in the config (if you haven’t already). I don’t have a Mint VM, but I’ll see if I get the same results.

Thanks, I tried that with no success, along with most of the other network settngs. It hangs displaying “keys:” in the upper left hand corner. There doesn’t seem to be anything in the logs when it is coming up that looks like an error.

I do have to do a Power Off to get it to shutdown and then I see a couple of hardening errors

Should this install be straight forward on Mint - or is there a better choice - we are not committed to a linux version yet.

Asterisk was devloped on CentOS.

Cool, thanks, CentOs it is

I installed on a CentOs VM and all seems well - at least the VM will restart without hanging. Thanks

Asterisk developers are a mix these days distro usage wise. I use Ubuntu myself. The continuous integration agents however are a mix of CentOS and Ubuntu (each can catch different things).
