I have been having problems with App_Server starting and in the log file for asterisk get the message
Failed connecting to asterisk manager
I had initially thought it was the sound card causing the issue because after
modprobe snd-dummy
App_Server seems to start fine just with out any sound.
After finding the asterisk error log I am now wondering if disabling the sound is allowing asterisk to work which in turn is allowing App_Server to start.
fix the problem with asterisk and then the sound should work and App_Server should start- hopefully
I assume it is failing to find the asterisk manager because its not running, can i check this with a command?
