Looping on installing asterisk - gtk+-2.0 not found

[marv]

I am trying to reinstall a crashed PBX in a Flash system. I downloaded the 1.1 iso and burned it. CentOS install and it reboots fine. Then it downloads the install script. It hits a point after "Installing asterisk" and starts to loop over and over. I paused it a few times and it looks like this is the problem: "gtk+-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. .... No package gtk+-2.0 found"

Is there an easy fix to get this install working again?

Thanks!

Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I had a PIAF system installed before and it worked perfectly but now I am getting the same problem as you did. Wondering what went wrong.

It sounds like you have a corrupt CD

Can you do linux mediacheck when you boot from the CD.

Try downloading a new CD, preferably from another location

As a fix, you could try installing gtk+ via yum, but I would not trust the installation, as something else may be amiss.

I was getting a similar problem loading on a HP LC2000. After taking a closer look at the problem, I found that my system clock had gotten reset to a way earlier date and time, and would not load files created after the 'current' date.

Maybe this will help

Good timing! I just noticed the same problem here, the clock was off by a year (2007 instead of 2008) and caused this problem.

The install script should turn on NTP

Yeah, my CMOS was reset and the clock had not been updated. I noticed during either the install or the yum update that an error messsage scrolled by stating a file was some extreme number of days off. So it prompted me to check the date. I just went back into the BIOS and set it and things installed fine.
