Hi.
Tonight I attempted to add a IAX trunk to connect two of my sites together. I created the trunk and clicked on “Apply Configuration Changes” but the web page hung at the Orange “Applying Changes” box. After 5 minutes waiting I noticed that Asterisk had hung.
I have tried re-starting asterisk and I have also rebooted the server but I get the following error whenever I try to “Apply Configuration Changes”
exit: 1
Tue, 25 Oct 2011 20:26:44 +0100 - Unable to connect to manager localhost:5038 (111): Connection refused
[FATAL] Unable to connect to Asterisk Manager from /var/lib/asterisk/bin/retrieve_conf, aborting
1 error(s) occurred, you should view the notification log on the dashboard or main screen to check for more details.
I am not very proficient at FreePBX so am seeking simple help if possible.
I have checked passwords in manager.conf and in Advanced Settings and both match (the subject of a similar question).
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mark.
After a little digging into why asterisk wont start I ran the following command
[root@Voip bin]# tail /var/log/asterisk/full
and got the result below…does this indicate an issue with IAX?

Resolved.
The extentions_additions.conf file needed to be deleted.
