Hi,

FOP2 does not work with perl compiled in debugging mode. You will need to update your perl or recompile without debugging flags. There are some .rpm in the download page for fedora systems and old centos 4 that come with such a perl.

I have problem in installation when using :

/usr/local/fop2/fop2_server –test

I get:

Can't run with DEBUGGING Perl at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 253.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /loader/0x8b28084/Filter/Crypto/Decrypt.pm line 37.
Compilation failed in require at script/fop2_server.pl line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at script/fop2_server.pl line 1.

I have stopped fop

I think I have sent you an email. You have an old/outdated FreePBX version. The fix is not complicated, you have to edit autoconfig_buttons_freepbx.sh and remove the following block:

AMPVERSION=`cat $AMPDIR | grep "<version>" | sed -e 's/<[^>]*>//g' | cut -b 2,4`

if [ $AMPVERSION -gt 25 ]; then
QUEUECONTEXT="from-queue"
else
QUEUECONTEXT="from-internal"
fi

and replace it with:

QUEUECONTEXT="from-internal"

You have FreePBX or a fork based on version 2.5, consider that FreePBX is now on stable version 2.10. Even in version 2.5 the module.xml file was present as far as I remember. But it is not on your system.

OK here is where I am with this. I did a fresh install off elastix 2.2 then install fop2 from the addon mod, setup an extension, add a manager, I then tried to connect via the extension that I setup, and no go, it don't work. It just comes up with "could not connect to server" . does anyone out their really have a step by step instruction off how this work. I Know that the addon mod was to make the install easy. But I believe that their more to it than what is posted. I bought the licence off witch I can't used, because I can't even get the basic setup to work. I paid for support from elastix off which was no help. I don't mind paying someone to install this for me, but I also need to know how its done. again is their anyone out their that real knows how this thing works. Help.

Hi,

You can contact the live help for assistance... If you installed via market then there is nothing else to do.

But, fop2 is a client/server application, and requires a clean network connection to tcp port 4445. If you do not clear that connection up, you won't be able to connect. It is not a user/password problem, it is a network connection/configuration problem. And as such, there is no step by step guide, as the network was set by someone, with some particular rules, equipment, etc. There are no two networks alike, so it is impossible to have a step by step guide. As there are no steps, just the clear notion that your network path from the client(browser), and the server (fop2_Server) should clear up tcp port 4445 (forwarding if server if behind a router, and also allowing that flow).

How to check: telnet to port tcp 4445 from your desktop to the server. If it connects, then your browser connection should work fine. If it does not connect, you must fix your network.

If you contact me via the live help and provide access to your panel, I can verify network issues in 2 minutes, trying that telnet command is quite easy.

Best regards,

One thing is the server connection to the asterisk box

Another thing is your browser trying to connect to fop2 server

You are --testing the former

You have problems with the later.

To troubleshot CLIENT problems, there is a nice troubleshoter that might help you out

My guess is that you have a firewall in place preventing connection to port tcp/4445 OR the fop2 service is not started

It is --test (dash dash test)

It seems you are entering only one dash, so when you type that fop2 tries to execute normally, and if it is already running, it will say that it can listen to port 4445.

Best regards,

what fop2admin version are you having problems with?

Did you modify fop2.cfg in any way appart from the manager user and secret?

What is the output from :

/usr/local/fop2/autoconfig-users.sh

?

For the user configuration it seems you did not log into fop2manager or you did not apply changes into freepbx configuration so the fop2manager could do its job. Go to http://your.server/fop2/admin and check the "fop2 users" and "fop2 buttons" tabs, what do you see there? After that, restart fop2 with the command "service fop2 restart" and try again.

Best regards,

Hi,

The "something went wrong" message is always there, but is quickly hidden when the app statrs. If the app fails for whatever reason, then you will still see the message and that is how you know that something went bad, otherwise if the app fails you won't notice as the app itself is the one that hides/unhides page elements.

As for the groups, there are two kinds of groups, you are interested in the visual grouping of buttons on the page, that is set only in the "fop2 buttons" tab, not in the "fop2 groups" tab (fop2 groups are used to filter views or to limit advanced permissions, not to visually group on the display.

There is no need to restart asterisk for any fop2 settings to work, you need to reload fop2 (and that reload is triggered also when asterisk itself reloads). Then login off and on again into fop2 should work. The only exception are install/uninstall plugins, for new plugins to be activated fop2 needs to be restarted (not asterisk), with the command: "service fop2 restart".

If the asterisk reload from menu does not appear to work when changing some settings, you might have some kind of problem with the execution of the script that actually reloads fop2 (/var/www/html/fop2/admin/update_conf.php). You can try to execute that script from the command line and check for errors there, if you do not see any errors, then you should be fine.

Best regards,
