Perhaps we find a better approach so this issue is avoided. Currently, this is mentioned (hidden and not explicitly but implicitly worded) in one of the Wiki guides. Anyway, I am going to discuss this issue and fix with the Asterisk Team. By the way, for a virtual machine installation of a Ubuntu system, I recommend to do:Īfter the first start because the automatic updater of snap might never kick in. This fixed the issue for me and should be sufficient for all Debian based systems. contrib/scripts/install_prereq assumes that you executed: Thanks to your last reply, I was able to reproduce it with Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS. The first step is to reproduce the issue. Therefore, this is valuable information and worth an investigation.
Issues like your yours are important to know because not only you but many more are facing exactly the same issue. Is there someone who can help me? Thanks in advance! If I restore the snapshot and ( without ever rebooting) go on with Asterisk build and installation, all is ok, and I can start Asterisk.Ĭonfiguring it as indicated in the wiki Getting started -> Hello world section, it works correctly, and I can correctly call Asterisk from a ZoiPer soft-telephone.ĭuring install_prereq execution, I can see that a lot of packages are installed, but also a lot of packages are removed, maybe even something that shouldn’t have been removed, I don’t know. When I restart the vm, this can no longer boot, and I only have the GRUB shell. The process ends with Current status: 206 (-62) upgradableĪt this point ( without shutting down the system) I take a snapshot of the vm, then I shutdown.
#INSTALL ACLOCAL 1.6 ON UBUNTU INSTALL#
install_prereq has done something destructive, please help me understand what happens.įollwing are all the steps I have executed:Ĭreate a new VirtualBox virtual machine, and install Ubuntu server 16.04 on itĭownload asterisk-certified-16.3-cert1 source archive, in /usr/local/src directoryĮntering the asterisk-certified./contrib/scripts directory, and execute. I’m trying to install Asterisk on a fresh-installed Ubuntu server 16.04, without any desktop, running in a VirtualBox virtual machine.Īfter executing install_prereq install, if I try to reboot the system, I get the GRUB shell, and can’t start the server anymore.
