[solved] Meetme and Zaptel Problems

Asterisk Asterisk Support

Hi all,
i read a lot of posts in this forum about this problem but i didn’t find the solution for my problem.
I read that there is a relatioanship between meetme and zaptel. When i try to connect to the conference with my softphone the CLI shows me these errors:

[Jun 19 16:58:52] WARNING[28239]: chan_zap.c:896 zt_open: Unable to open ‘/dev/zap/pseudo’: No such file or directory
[Jun 19 16:58:52] ERROR[28239]: chan_zap.c:7649 chandup: Unable to dup channel: Input/output error
[Jun 19 16:58:52] WARNING[28239]: app_meetme.c:761 build_conf: Unable to open pseudo channel - trying device
[Jun 19 16:58:52] WARNING[28239]: app_meetme.c:764 build_conf: Unable to open pseudo device

I aslo found that i should re-install zaptel (make and make install) and then type “make config” and finally “zaptel start” but when i type “make” everything stops wiht this error:

make[1]: Entering directory /usr/src/zaptel-1.4.2.1/menuselect' make[2]: Entering directory/usr/src/zaptel-1.4.2.1/menuselect’
make[3]: Entering directory /usr/src/zaptel-1.4.2.1/menuselect/mxml' autoconf make[3]: autoconf: Command not found make[3]: *** [config.h] Error 127 make[3]: Leaving directory/usr/src/zaptel-1.4.2.1/menuselect/mxml’

make: *** [menuselect/menuselect] Error 2

Is it related to the meetme error?
Can anybody tell me what to do to solve this problem?

Thank you!

Try to install Zaptel on your asterisk pbx box.

hi bigmez ,

“meet me” like many other application in asterisk need a source of timing , any digium card offers this timing, but if you have not one of them, the ztdummy module can do the task (this is why you have installed the zaptel driver :wink:

can i have more information , about your kernel version , linux distribution …

I solved the problem…
i just downloaded the new zaptel release, installed it and manually loaded the ztdummy module.

That’s all!
