Hi, I am a new asterisk learner and for a while I’m studying asterisk with the book “Asterisk, The definitive guide, third edition”
And I have problems on loading my fxs card (Openvox A400P with 4 fxs modules which is equivalent to tdm400p of digium)
I have configured /etc/dahdi/modules and /etc/dahdi/system.conf and all ports are ok and dahdi started perfectly. But whenever I loaded the /etc/asterisk/chan_dahdi.conf , Asterisk has loses connection to dahdi. and I can not load chan_dahdi.so manually via asterisk_cli.
My configuration is:
Ubuntu server 10.04.03
Asterisk 1.8
Dahdi 2.6.0
and I’m trying to setup my fxs card as explained here:
