RELOAD FAILED - Reload failed because retrieve_conf encountered an error: 255

General Help
1

good afternoon friends.

I sent this post asking for your help.

I have a Elstix 2.4. The team works correctly, but when I make a change in the pink headband, this does not go away, always latent although apparently the change was made.

when applying the cambion in the headband, I check logbook in the / var / log / asterisk / full and this shows nothing.

log acces the file, I get the following logbook. where apparently if making the switch.

172.17.0.29 - - [28 / Jan / 2015: 20: 07: 29 -0600] "GET /config.php?type=setup&display=extensions&handler=reload&handler=reload HTTP / 1.1" 200 41078

Try applying the headband from FreePBX and returns me this error:

1 error (s) Occurred, You should view the notification log on the dashboard or main screen to check for more details.

I ask your kind assistance to revisit this issue.
As additional data, is not installed anything extra.

You are using a very poor english translator.

Bad translation or not - there should be something here that we can do. I do particularly like the ā€œcambionā€ line. I had to look that one up.

Iā€™m going to guess that the option ā€œSettings -> Advanced Settings -> Leave Reload Bar Upā€ is probably set to ā€œTrueā€.

Note that this is not the default, so there might be something nefarious going on.

Im not saying we shouldnā€™t do anything. I am asking for a more reasonable explanation of the problem

He has an error from hitting the orange reload bar. This brings up two flags.

  1. Orange reload bar is from 2.9 and lower.
  2. Itā€™s an error, nothing about the bar staying up is the issue (and since there is an error the bar will stay up because the reload never completed). We have no idea what the error is because the message wasnā€™t expanded. Imagine if you got an error on your screen that said ā€œgeneral error, expand for more informationā€ but you called tech support and only told them that and refused to click expand. That is what we are dealing with in this thread.

Also he is also dealing with ā€œElstix 2.4ā€ (sic) which is notoriously NOT FreePBX. Is ā€œpink the new orangeā€?

Yup - itā€™s true that bad problem descriptions get bad answers.

I hadnā€™t caught the orange reload bar distinction - Iā€™ve never really paid that much attention to the bar color. I was basing my reply on this snippet:

From this bizarre construction, I though he was saying "The ā€˜pink headbandā€™ stays on the screen (ā€˜always latentā€™) but the ā€˜change was madeā€™ and the system (ā€˜teamā€™) is working.

Of course, as bad a translation as this was, I am the first to admit that I might be completely off-base here.

Sorry for the translation. I attached a picture of the error.

Please scroll to the bottom of that box. The error is at the bottom.

Is that the last line? If so there are bigger issues at hand here.
