Hi all, I am new to this forum and I’ve been looking through endless pages on how to install Commercial Modules for CentOS 7. Here is why. I managed to install Freepbx on a Debian OS at a VPS in AWS. Unfortunately, all the commercial modules are missing and there is no way to install them unless the base OS is the Sangoma 7.
I’ve read that SNG7 is based on CentOS, and I even found this forum from Andrew Nagy on how to install FreePBX 13 on CentOS 7 including commercial modules. (Of course this is an old version) But I had no success. Then afterwards I started reading that the commercial modules are only available on Freebpx Distro. Why tho? The problem is that I cannot install SNG7 on AWS and I have not been able to find a way to overcome this. I guess there is no solution… Does anyone know why commercial modules stoped having support on CentOS and now it only works if you have the Distro OS?
You could say a whole bunch of things, like compatibles, supportability, but the majority of the people on the forum would be giving you guesses and second hand. You’ll have to ask Sangoma the specific reasons to know for sure. For years, since the distro became sng7, I t’s always been a requirement.
To my knowledge Sangoma has been very clear on what their products that they develop will be supported in.
The interesting thing is the change to CentOS recently. This has created an opportunity for Sangoma to rethink how they support the platform. That doesn’t mean they will do what you want exactly, but now is the time to share feedback.
