I'm trying to set up an Asterisk server with
Sarge r1 and I have a question about the
Zaptel package.
I installed the asterisk, zaptel, and libzap1
packages. I have an X100P clone card
installed. The same system and X100P
worked fine with Asterisk at home. When
I try and run ztcfg I get the error:
line 142: Unable to open master device '/dev/zap/ctl'
/dev/zap/ctl is there (0 bytes) and from what
I've read in researching this, it indicates that
the wcfxo driver is not loaded. (A HiSax module
gets loaded.)
Many pages I've seen said that I need to
modprobe zaptel and modprobe wcfxo.
However, I get "Can't locate module" with
both of these commands.
_Some_ Web pages say I need to compile
a wcfxo driver. However In using other types
of hardware (Web cams, etc.) with Debian
I've never had to compile drivers before.
Simply installing the appropriate package
supplied the necessary drivers. And the
modutils file references the wcfxo driver as if
it should be with zaptel. I cannot find a
wcfxo* file anywhere on my system (in trying
to locate the wcfxo module).
I have checked _many_ Web pages and newsgroups
trying to find out how to get these modules loaded
and have tried the things that were mentioned on some
of these pages (adding the asterisk user to the dialout
group, uncommenting lines in the modutils file, unloading
the HiSax module, etc.) but nothing has worked. How/where
do I get the wcfxo and zpatel module files ?
Any insight you could offer would be deeply appreciated.
(Just as a side note, once I make a change to
/etc/default/asterisk and asterisk runs at bootup,
I get "permission denied" errors to the log files.)
