Running Ubuntu 14.04LTS with Asterisk 13 and FreePBX 13
Ran in all updates to date and system appeared to be working fine…until I rebooted the server!
Now I get the following in the Asterisk console continuously…as in once every 3 seconds!!!
Manager.c: 127.0.0.1 failed to authenticate as ‘admin’
The authentication issue would suggest a password has been changed somewhere but it doesn’t tell me where and I can log into the FreePBX manager without issue. I haven’t changed any passwords since install so can only wonder that maybe one of the updates reset one???
Any tips on how to debug?
Many thanks in advance.
Mike
PS - This is a vanilla install… no trixbox or FOP… just a manual install with the latest updates installed.

I am no expert but I would go to advanced settings and resubmit your asterisk username and password.
Thanks for the suggestion… I tried that but still the same.
Not sure if the Log extract from FreePBX is more useful than the Asterisk console info…???

BUMP
No-one got any ideas as to what part of the system might try to authenticate locally using the admin username every 3 seconds?
I’ve checked the AMI admin creds in amportal.conf and they match those in manager.conf…I don’t know of anywhere else that uses admin???
Help much appreciated.
Cheers

I would try checking your config files as described here.

Thanks but I have already found that post. As posted, I have already checked that the manager.conf and amportal.conf creds match and they do.
Are there any other places where a username of ‘admin’ is used?
