ASterisk reinstall?

[murcel]

after setting up the core aqnd many other things, i started to configure asterisk. i didn't touched any conf files, but a sipaccount through the admin page.
if i look under advanced/configuration/phones
and press the orange "apply configration" following message appears

exit: 1

seems asterisk is not started at all. netstat doesn't show anything on port 5038.

is there a easy way (without insatalling whole core) to "reinstall" the asterisk/freepbx to clean state?!

I'm having this issue as well, must be something with the latest alpha.

what was your latest install? 2.22?

I updated my system last night to the latest 810 release, 2.23, Asterisk was already installed and working fine both incoming and outgoing calls, then I added insteon, Zwave and HDMomerun after that Asterisk stopped working and I get the above error:

Connecting to Asterisk manager interface..FAILED
[FATAL] Asterisk Manager Connection Failure Failed to connect to the Asterisk manager through port: 5038

I would appreciate any suggestion!!

Quick update, reinstalling 810 on a new HD, got all my devices back in action.
I had to do this, because updating every week for the last few months my system became unstable for some reason.
