install issues on Alpha2 (Asterisk)

[Ierlandfan]

I installed de Alpha2 version this week.

downloaded Kubuntu 8.10 (Burned to cd)
Found out how to become root (or else you cannot run apt-get or aptitude)
aptitude update aptitude dist-upgrade.
Went ok.

Installed latest installer. (by using latest.tar.gz)

Problems:

Minor:
command locate is not working ok
solution:
nano /etc/updatedb.conf put an # in front of exit 0

Asterisk
Freepbx gives me: Cannot write SIP configurations
Apply configuration changes gives me:

.....
Connecting to database..OK

Other than that no problems.

I simply chmod 777 all the permission denied erorrs
(lazy solution)

There are still some problems but reload works now

Problems to solve:

 Could not reload FOP server
 symlink from modules failed
Failed to copy from module agi-bin

[murcel]

same problem here

Look here: http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=8199.0

As Thom said, please look at our perl scripts in /usr/pluto/bin to try and make this work out of the box.
