CentOS 8 Alpha Release of Incredible PBX 2020

[wardmundy]

We've uploaded the alpha installer for CentOS 8 to SourceForge in hopes that someone can figure out the problem with NodeJS on the CentOS 8 platform. We've tried versions 10, 12, and 14 without any success. This means all of the node-dependent apps including UCP, ClearlyDevices, and ClearlyTrunking are currently broken. Any node nerd assistance would be appreciated.

With this new installer, we've tried to preserve reliable functionality with CentOS 7 platforms as well. So you can run the same installer on either CentOS 7 or CentOS 8 platforms. NodeJS actually works on CentOS 7.

That's as far as I'm getting also using Node.js 14.10.0
UCP shows Enabled, but won't start.

| ucp | 15.0.6.18 | Enabled | AGPLv3+ |



Also getting an error try to set admin password with /root/admin-pw-change:


This script changes your admin password for FreePBX 2.11 access.

Enter new admin password (MAKE IT SECURE!!): <passwd>

admin password will be changed to: <passwd>
Press ENTER key to continue or Ctrl-C to abort...

@Starburst: Sorry for the surprises. Some old code crept in from somewhere.

For admin-pw-change script, we've now fixed the installer, but the MySQL line in your script should look like this:

mysql -u root -ppassw0rd -e "update asterisk.ampusers set password_sha1 = '`echo -n $PW | sha1sum | cut -f 1 -d " "`' where username = 'admin' limit 1;"

As for UCP, the node problem (all versions) is a known issue apparently that has not been solved with CentOS 8.

For PortKnocker failing to restart on reboot, modify /etc/rc.local by issuing the following command once and reboot to test:

echo "systemctl start knockd" >> /etc/rc.local

Installer has been updated.

Port Knocker started fine after reboot.

FYI - The version I tried was CentOS 8 Stream.
