SRTP in Asterisk 1.8.16.0 version

[kalyanasundaram]

HI,

I have installed the srtp by below steps.

#wget srtp.sourceforge.net/srtp-1.4.2.tgz
#tar -zxvf srtp-1.4.2.tgz

cd srtp

srtp#./configure --prefix=/usr
srtp#make
srtp#make runtest
srtp#make install

successfully installed.

#tar -zxvf asterisk-1.8.16.0.tar.gz
asterisk-1.8.16.0# make clean
asterisk-1.8.16.0#./configure

Then, I’m receiving this error.

checking for the ability of -lsrtp to be linked in a shared object… no
configure: WARNING: ***
configure: WARNING: *** libsrtp could not be linked as a shared object.
configure: WARNING: *** Try compiling libsrtp manually. Configure libsrtp
configure: WARNING: *** with ./configure CFLAGS=-fPIC --prefix=/usr

configure: WARNING: *** After re-installing libsrtp

configure: WARNING: ***
configure: WARNING: *** If you do not need SRTP support re-run configure

Could you please any one this member assist me to fix this?

Please give me some steps to fix this ASAP.

If you want ASAP help hire a consultant using the job forum.

In the mean time try the suggestion of the message adding the -fPIC flag in the configure command.
