Chapter 3: Installing Asterisk
If you don’t see the two endpoints listed, you’ve got a configuration issue. You’re
going to have to work backward to ensure you don’t have any errors that prevent
Asterisk from connecting to the database and instantiating these two endpoints.
Common Installation Errors
The following conditions (in no particular order) cause the majority of installation
errors:
Syntax errors
In some cases, substituting a tab for a space can be enough to break something.
UnixODBC, for example, has proven to be sensitive to missing spaces between
key = value definitions. The best advice we can give here is to use copy/paste
whenever possible, as opposed to manual input.
Permissions problems
These can be annoying to resolve, but error messages will generally provide the
clues you need. The /var/log/messages file is often a gold mine for useful clues.
Missing steps
A missed step might not have any noticeable effects until many steps later.
Double-check everything, and verify functionality before moving on.
Credentials problems
Always verify that the users and passwords you create work manually, before
using them in a configuration file.
It’s not possible nor necessary to dig into every warning and error message you might
see, but if we’ve provided a test to run, and it doesn’t produce anything like we said it
should, you should probably work through that step again until you’ve figured out
what’s going on.
Some Final Configuration Notes
Once installed, Asterisk will have created an environment for itself in your Linux
machine. The following sections have some useful tidbits of information about how
you can interact with your new Asterisk installation.
Sample Configuration Files for Future Reference
Even though we warned you not to run the sudo make samples command during the
installation (because that will fill your /etc/asterisk directory with a bunch of stuff you
don’t want), the sample files are nevertheless a fantastic reference. In your Asterisk
source directory, you will find the following two directories:

~/src/asterisk-16.<TAB>/configs/basic-pbx
~/src/asterisk-16.<TAB>/configs/samples
The files in those folders are worth reading through (especially for any module you’re
working with and want to research how to do something).
Give them a read when you have a chance.
Running make samples on a system that already has configuration
files will overwrite the existing files.
The Asterisk Shell Command
Asterisk can be run either as a daemon or as an application. In general, you will want
to run it as an application when you are building, testing, and troubleshooting, and as
a daemon when you put it into production.
The command to start Asterisk is the same regardless of whether you’re running it as
a daemon or an application:
asterisk
However, without any arguments, this command will assume certain defaults and
start Asterisk as a background application. In other words, you never want to run the
command asterisk on its own, but rather will want to pass some options to it to bet‐
ter define the behavior you are looking for. The following list provides some examples
of common usages:
-h
-c
