There are several issues with installing FreePBX from the iso image.
I am setting up FreePBX on a VM on a different subnet.
I wait till after FreePBX boots on the VM and all the scripts run.
I log into the web interface and setup the admin username and pw.
When logging into the web interface again, after going through the initial setup and clicking through the offers, I get booted out.
It looks like the firewall kicks in and kills the connection.
OK. I setup a VM with a web browser on the same subnet and am able to log into the web interface. I click throuI go through the activation and then get no page found after activation.
I am now completely unable to get into the web interface.
This is the 5th or 6th time I have reinstalled. I have only setup the admin username and password. Nothing else has been changed.
I saw a post that the order that Apache is starting is wrong. Apache Order
I thought that OSO would not work with commercial modules, because after activating I would get disconnected.
Is there a way to get an updated ISO with the correct settings and adjust the firewall settings so we do not get locked out when administrating from another local subnet?
The ISO also looks to be a network install, I have trouble installing FreePBX on a VM as I use PiHole as primary DNS via default DHCP Settings.
If you mean that the host/hypervisor is on a different subnet from the VM (you are not using bridged networking), that is an advanced topic and not advisable for a small system.
If you mean that the your workstation is on a different subnet from the VM, if there is unrestricted non-NAT routing between the subnets, that shouldn’t be an issue at all. Otherwise, please describe the networking.
If you reboot twice within five minutes, the firewall will stay off and you can troubleshoot what settings need to be changed.
I know nothing about PiHole, but would guess that you could whitelist the VM. Or, customize the DHCP server to hand out unrestricted DNS servers to the VM. Or, manually change whatever is generating /etc/resolv.conf on your system (the file should contain a comment about what set it).
Is the firewall resetting the network connection before “Apply Config” is used? I got booted out after initial setup and login from computer on the same subnet. It added my computer x.x.x.x/32 and then when I tried to add the whole subnet x.x.x.x/24 subnet I was unable to connect. I rebooted and was back at the wizard. I clicked on abort and made sure firewall was disabled.
Noting that the thread’s existence implies it has already been released, there have been a number of recent complaints about testing quality, so I’d hope the answer to when it will be released is when it is well tested, which should mean that a date cannot be given until testing is complete. Pushing for an early release could encourage a premature one.
