Dahdi installation V3.4.0 error

DAHDI
1

Hi,
I’m a new user of asterisk and tried to use the “make” command on the dahdi package but got these error :

image1215×710 160 KB

my kernel is :
6.14.0 - 32 generic
on ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS

Which was the immediately preceding thread in the DAHDI category

Hi,
thank you for the reply.
it seem to be the same error but not on the same line/file and the same kernel.
I tried to fix it by adding CFLAG on the MakeFile to downgrade the error to be a warning but without success…

EDIT
__________
I tried to replace the entire linux folder with the current last released version on github and got the follow error :

After a whole day to try to fix it it seems to be unfixable currently to make dahdi work on debian latest kernel…
Maybe someone can suggest a linux distro that work ?

5

You’re absolutely correct, the latest Kernel (6) is unconfigurable. Stick to Kernel (5)

6

Use phreaknet.sh to install.

cd /usr/src

wget https://docs.phreaknet.org/phreaknet.sh

chmod 755 phreaknet.sh

./phreaknet.sh make

./phreaknet.sh dahdi –drivers –force

That will install dahdi 3.4.0

Isn’t there already a Debian package that does all this for you?

8

DKMS handles binary compatibility, but not source compatibility. The problems people are getting are that DAHDI won’t compile against the current headers. All that DKMS does is to attempt to compile against the headers for the running kernel. If a driver won’t compile against those headers, it can’t help. (It also deals with signing the driver to keep secure boot happy.

I dont know what it did but it seem to work!!
Thanks you!! :slight_smile:

What where your exact steps to configure and what kernel version do you have currently?

As far as I am aware Kernel 6 and Dahdi don’t jive. What is the output of : modprobe dahdi_dummy
/usr/sbin/dahdi_cfg -vvvvvvvvvvvvv

what do you get when you run: service dahdi status?

11

No extra steps. Just run ./phreaknet.sh dahdi –drivers –force

I’m on Debian 12 uname -r gives 6.1.0-37-amd64

modprobe dahdi_dummy gives no output

And Asterisk CLI dahdi show version

DAHDI Version 3.4.0 Echo Canceller: HWEC, MG2

Great Postback it’s important to write back with the fix, as others might be helped by your success. Good luck!
