During the installation I have activated the “app_macro” in “make menuselect”, and I have created an Asterisk user, as described in the guide at point one;
The problem appear when I try to install FreePBX running “./install -n”
The response is:
root@Asterisk:/usr/src/freepbx# ./install -n
Assuming you are Database Root
Checking if SELinux is enabled…Its not (good)!
Reading /etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf… Error! Unable to read /etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf or it was missing a directories section
I solved.
It seems that my “asterisk.conf” file was edited by some command (maybe?). The broken “asterisk.conf” look like this:
root@Asterisk:~# cat /etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf
[options]
; If we want to start Asterisk with a default verbosity for the verbose
; or debug logger channel types, then we use these settings (by default
; they are disabled).
;verbose = 5
;debug = 2
; User and group to run asterisk as. NOTE: This will require changes to
; directory and device permissions.
;runuser = asterisk ; The user to run as. The default is root.
;rungroup = asterisk ; The group to run as. The default is root
;defaultlanguage = es
Instead the right configuration for “asterisk.conf” was inside the “asterisk.conf.old” file, and it is:
root@Asterisk:~# cat /etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf.old

I don’t know how this happened. I solved changing the “asterisk.conf” with “asterisk.conf.old”, after that I runned again “./install -n”
