Fatal errors at "amportal a ma installall"

FreePBX Installation / Upgrade
1

I am installing FreePBX on CentOS 6.4 using the manual at http://wiki.freepbx.org/display/HTGS/Installing+FreePBX+on+Centos+6.3#InstallingFreePBXonCentos6.3-InstallCentos6.3

Everything goes well until I get to the step at “Restart Asterisk and install FreePBX” where I give the command “amportal a ma installall” This generates the following errors:(pasted form ssh)

[root@pbx1 asterisk]# amportal a ma installall

Please wait…

I attempted to find the cause in the php scripts but to no avail. Please advise.

It appears /var/lib/asterisk/bin/gen_amp_conf.php is not installed. Is that a correct assumption?

Thank you for your quick reply, tm1000. Just checked for /var/lib/asterisk/bin/gen_amp_conf.php and it is there. The owner and group for all the files in /var/lib/asterisk/bin are root while the group and owner of the bin directory is both asterisk. Could that be relevant?

They need to be asterisk if you follow the install guide.

run:
amportal chown

I get the same exact error when running amportal chown
