1.4. Installation on Debian
Important:
Remember that Asterisk is very proccessor-intensive, so choose very carefully which packages you are installing.
Requirements
To install Asterisk on a server running Debian with kernel 2.6, some additional packages are required:
If you need to compile zttool (zaptel tool), you will need to install newt header files(package: libnewt-dev). Use this command to install it:
#apt-get install libnewt-dev
If you fail to install a package that is needed, you can always add this package with the following command:
#apt-get install <package_name>
Note: Do not forget the packages mentioned in the first tutorial.
Here is the list of the needed packages:
Compiling on Debian
After getting the source, we need to compile. To accomplish this we follow the instructions given previously in "General Installation".
Here are the steps again:
#cd /usr/src/asterisk/libpri
#make
#make install
#cd /usr/src/asterisk/zaptel
#make linux26
#make install
#cd /usr/src/asterisk/asterisk
#make mpg123
Before making Asterisk we have to install mpg123 package (to be able to play mp3 files for music on hold).
Note: Install only the mpg123 packages that come with Asterisk!!
#make
#make install
#make samples
Note: Since we have kernel 2.6 on the Debian Server, we use 'make linux26'.
Error warnings and their solutions:
If you try to make asterisk and you get the warning:
Make not found, do
apt-get install make
If you get the error: gcc not found, do
apt-get install gcc
If you get the error "C compiler cannot create executables."
apt-get install libc-dev
If you get the error: "termcap support not found", you clearly didnt read the above text well enough, apt-get install libncurses5-dev will fix that for you.
