New IncrediblePBX Install - No Gui??

[NowayZes]

So i'm not quiet sure what I did wrong, but I can't figure out what i'm doing wrong so here we go.

I followed this guide for the latest attempt, http://nerdvittles.com/?p=9713 to setup an in house PBX on our Lenovo server, running Ubuntu 14 LTS.

All the installs seemingly went fine, no errors. Here is what I noticed afterwards:

1. the only gui interface I can access via the address given at install 192.x.x.x:9001 the username given was admin the password was random numbers.
-- Cannot log into web interface on that address AT ALL with default admin username and password provided (even after resetting it). Quickly realized I can only log in with the root user.

Also noted that I was forced to use https to login. (this took me getting my workstation blocked several times until i realized I have to use root for some reason).

2. So the only thing I have is webmin, which shows absolutely nothing about anything related to Incredible PBX, so I'm completely lost in there, it does not look at all like the interface the guide says I should see.

3. I went back to the server to check asterisk -rvvvvv .... etc... response "asterisks not installed".

No errors came up during install etc...

4. Noticed when I login at the console of the server, it says I should see this window stating what services are up etc, but anytime I login i'm just at the expected command prompt.

I'm assuming here that stuff didn't install. My frustration is I've used 5 different usb sticks/dvds, 3 different servers, 2 different virtual machines, and 3 different types of PBX software (Freebx with asterisk, AsteriskNow, and now IncrediblePBX). Oddly, it seems like the same thing happens no matter WHERE I install this. I even tired on a hosted Linux box I rent, and got the same problem. Asterisk doesn't seem to install, or something, theres no gui for it. I'm convinced since I'v literally done over 20 installs at this point that I must be missing a step, I can't believe this just isnt' working regardless of hardware I try.

Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. I haven't' used Asterisk since 2009 so i'm a bit rusty. And back then I build a machine in under 2 hours, first try, no problems. I can't believe that the modern software just doesn't work as well as it did almost 10 years ago.

Thanks,

Updated.

Said screw it and told it to install asterisk. That didn't make a difference, it installed but now when I try asterisk -rvvvvv .... etc. I get:
Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk/asterisk.ctl exist?)

Thanks.

Sadly the Ubuntu image is dead. Please use the new 13-13 for CentOS. Either 6.9 or 7 will do, but I recommend 6.9

Good enough! Glad I didn't spend to much time on that one. I found a link to just download the incrediblepbx installer, https://sourceforge.net/projects/pbxinaflash/?source=typ_redirect looks like it matches up to what your saying, Centos 6.9 and 13/13.

I'm not tied to a specific linux, been doing this stuff since the 80's I can nav/pickup just about anything, just haven't touched pbx in about 8 years so gotta catch up. Much has changed Thanks for the help! I'm sure i'll be around lol.

To reduce some potential headaches, please follow this guide to get you off the ground. Feel free to ask @wardmundy or me if you have any questions.

Much appreciation Kyle.

I actually found the one with Xivo virtualbox prebuilt, and threw it in a VM. Got it setup and running on google voice in about 30 minutes. Not bad for an old timer that doesn't really remember all these settings. Thanks very much for the help. This was just at test run, can't install ESXI on the server I want to use *unsupported network card, blah, its 10/1000 but still not supported*, don't have time to mess with that so i'm either going to build a makeshift VMBox with Ubuntu+Virtualbox or vmware, and then load it on there. It's a massively powerful server, damn shame I can't use native ESXI lol. Ah well.

Good fun good fun, i'm sure I'll see you around here, thanks again for the quick and amazing help Kyle!

@kyle95wm

So thought I was all good to go, outbound works great, not getting any inbound, doesn't seem to ring, kinda seems to connect to something, but just dead air a few seconds and just hands up. Pulled down the logs and saw this a bunch: I'm using google voice, and a soft phone (Yate) on my laptop (just testing for now). Seems like I might have something misconfigured linking the in bound call to the user/device....

@NowayZes sorry, Google Voice is outside of my scope. I would ask @wardmundy or @Sylvain Boily since he's the developer of Wazo and should be able to help you. I moved away from the Wazo platform because of it causing so many problems with all the fancy backend stuff. 13-13, or even 13-12, are a lot more stable for me as of late.
