asterisk 1.8 and freepbx 2.11 from SVN are the versions being used.
I looked at the instructions on
http://wiki.freepbx.org/display/HTGS/Installing+FreePBX+on+Centos+6.3
but deployed asterisk via the yum repository as I didn’t need dahdi as it’s no longer required in asterisk 1.8.
The install went all right, but when I attempted to apply configurations it says it couldn’t execute retrieve_config.

that’s a constant loop. so I type clear.
and attempt to start asterisk manually
service asterisk start
just to see if asterisk itself will start

that tells me something’s missing or I broke something.

Thank you for any assistance you can offer.
