[image] FreePBX 17 - CDR Reports and Call History Not Showing New Calls I had to add additional space to various partitions, in order for the system to work. So, make sure you have space free. Curious which partitions you changed and by how much ?

I have it on my agenda to post a more detailed outline of our upgrade experience. The main one we had to expand for the CDR restores was the /tmp partition. By default, it was only about 2 GB. I had to expand it to about 15-20 GB, due to our CDR being about 13-15 GB uncompressed. Once I did that…

Thank you for the feedback @christrati ! [image] christrati: The main one we had to expand for the CDR restores was the /tmp partition. There’s an issue to address this pending in the queue: [bug]: Backup module needs arbitrary temporary directory selection for Restore function · Issue #879 ·…

Shrinking does seem a lot riskier. I still need to build a spare, as we usually have a prod and then spare, in case of a failure. As I said, I’ll see about making a separate post based on my experience. Overall, the ISO works, and totally understand the partitioning. Just wish there was a way tha…

Piggy backing on this, we had issues with this with a restore we did using the ISO. /tmp and /tftpboot were too small which caused issues during the restore. We ended up plugging a flash drive in due to issues with adjusting the partition size with a redirect to /tmp being on the flash drive. This w…

Regarding the restores on too small of /tmp … please try: $ sudo -u asterisk TMPDIR=/var/spool/asterisk/tmp fwconsole backup --restore=/path/to/restore-xxxxxx.tar.gz …as this will temporarily change the return value of the PHP sys_get_temp_dir() function during script execution. Or in case that c…

After the split - regarding /tftpboot - this is where Endpoint Manager places phone firmware (as discussed recently e.g. EPM (comercial) create no File and the ISO was using standard Debian /srv/tftp so this is being marked as an issue for improvement soon.

Decided to move to bindmount on this TFTP issue ^^^. Also, if you apply the last two PRs #44 and #45 (or wait until next week when they get merged), then run the script on either Debian 12 or 13 (or wherever with a modern version of xorriso), using a command like: ./abuild-fpbx-installer-iso -i /p…

Do you want me to post some of the other issues regarding the transition in this thread? Or do you want me to start a new post? Chris

If they are specifically related to the ISO, then it would be great to share in this thread; otherwise, probably better to handle in a new thread (can always merge/split/etc. later on if necessary.)

Ok, here’s some issues that I had with the ISO specifially: Issue 1: DHCP issues with MAC address This was specifically with Hyper-V on Windows Server 2025. When it would get a DHCP address, it would use the MAC associated with the VM; however, after the reboot, it kepts adding additional informa…

Lots of documentation and screen shot updates regarding the latest v17 ISO or on our wiki:

Stumbled by this related idea today from a forum post a few years ago about how to handle large backup restoration jobs:
