Asterisk Asterisk Support
#1

Hi,
please i need help. I configure asterisk on Debian 11 and asterisk 18.

Asterisk give me message when i try to start (i use command: sudo asterisk -vvvvr): Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk/asterisk.ctl exist?

#2

asterisk service not running, you can try command “service asterisk start”

#3

I try to use “sudo service asterisk start”, but it does not work.

#4

It could become from many issues, you can try by manually as:

asterisk

If no message then

asterisk -vvvvr

If start without problem check I guess debian 11 use service manager systemd

#5

sudo asterisk -cvvv
This will show any errors on the screen so you can troubleshoot.

#6

Your asterisk is not successfully install, you should reinstall it.

#7

  1. Did you install from source or from a package (apt/apt-get)? If from source, which guide did you follow?

  2. Is this a new install, a previously running system, or a running system?

  3. When you say ‘it does not work,’ please show (not a picture, cut-n-paste text – wrapped with preformatted text tags) what command you entered and the output.

#8

I installed Asterisk on another computer. Now Asterisk works.

#9
