[solved] Asterisk ignores *_additional.conf config files

FreePBX Installation / Upgrade
1

I have installed FreePBX on our Mandriva server and had following problem:
Asterisk didn’t read FreePBX config files and in FreePBX i wasn’t able to see my test configuration created on plain Asterisk files in /etc/asterisk

It was because for some reason my extensions.conf, sip.conf, iax.conf, features.conf were left untouched by install_amp script (maybe that’s by default).
I removed those files and they were recreated as symlinks to myFreePBX_html_dir/admin/modules/core/etc/ after pressing “Apply configuration changes” in FreePBX admin panel. After that things seem to be working :slight_smile:

Thought this might help someone.

When you do a fresh install some config files are not created and Asterisk complains about it.
Most of the _custom.conf and _additional.conf like:

features_general_applicationmap_custom.conf
features_general_custom.conf
features_general_featuremap_custom.conf
features_general_featuremap_additional.conf
manager_additional.conf
manager_custom.conf
musiconhold_custom.conf

are NOT created.
