OpenVOX 400 card not showing up

[womble1]

I have the openVOX 400 card with one incomming BT line.
I ahve it set up exactly the same way as on another system
Originally it worked.
However now it does not seem to
if you do
lspci on the command line you can see it.
Dahdi is running and I have checked every config.

I get this…

dahdi show channels
No such command 'dahdi show channels' (type 'help dahdi show' for other possible commands)


I also get this…


root@pbx:~ $ dahdi_test
Opened pseudo dahdi interface, measuring accuracy...

and this…

and this…


pbx*CLI> module reload chan_dahdi.so
pbx*CLI>

so the module is loaded.

hardware sees the card, asterisk… I don't know…

anyone got any idea's ?

Usually Dahdi fails like this if /etc/dahdi/system.conf doesn't match your Asterisk configs /etc/asterisk/chan_dahdi.conf files (there's a few of them).

Do a "grep chan_dahdi.c /var/log/asterisk/full" at the Linux command prompt to see what error messages show up. Here's a webpage on troubleshooting No Asterisk Dahdi Help?

NOthing shows up…


root@pbx:~ $ grep chan_dahdi.c /var/log/asterisk/full
root@pbx:~ $

 

[womble1]

[womble1]

so this is OK I think ?
These are the exact same configs I have working on another machine...

 

[blanchae]

In chan_dahdi.conf, these lines are incorrect:

include chan_dahdi_general.conf

and

;#include chan_dahdi_general.conf

The first one is missing the "#" in front of the include and the second has been made a comment by the preceding ";"

There should only be one line that points to chan_dahdi_general.conf and It should be :

#include chan_dahdi_general.conf

The "#include" is a directive that tells Asterisk to include the following config file. The way it is now, chan_dahdi_general.conf never gets looked at.

The reason that there were no error messages in /var/log/asterisk/full is because chan_dahdi_general.conf never got read.
