I have 2 fresh installs of TB 2.0 experiencing the exact same startup problem with Hudlite as it appears that it starts before Asterisk, and then fails. I have all updates in both machines. At the end of the day, I have to SSH into the root and start HUDlite manually with the following command:/etc/init.d/hudlite-server startAfter starting HUDlite it is operational and works fairly well; with PC clients having the access I was looking for. However, on a reboot, I will have the same problem. Not being a Linux guru as these board members, can some please advise me how to edit a statement at the end of the boot processes to start the HUDLite server.MUCH appreciated in advance!!!!!!Tx,Jack

this is a known problem. install the latest version of freePBX this has an updated script that somtimes resolves this problem. We are working on a version of HUD with a fix.

I installed Freepbx 2.2.1. Better but still need restart

After installing freepbx 2.2.1 the HUD server is running and I manage to activate the client. However, I can't view the other extensions until I restart hudlite-server.

/etc/init.d/hudlite-server restart

Only than I can view the other extensions.

FYI

You can start asterisk and hudlite-server manually like so:

from a console enter the following commands:
chkconfig asterisk off
chkconfig ircd off
chkconfig hudlite-server off

This stops the init from starting these services when it goes to runlevel 3.

Edit the file

/etc/rc.local

and add the following lines:

amportal start
service ircd start
service hudlite-server start

This will start the services in the correct order I believe. hudlite-server needs to be able to talk to asterisk and the ircd processes to pass messages between them. I guess if they are not fully available in the correct order at startup then there might be some issues.

Thx

new Trixbox - old problem
Thu, 09/24/2009 - 3:46pm

Just received a new Fonality TrixboxCE (2.6.2.2) this week and after activating the Hudlite had about the same problem - the HUD server showed itself as started in the webgui but after most reboots it almost never allowed the PC clients to connect unless I manually did a restart of the service (/etc/init.d/hudlite-server restart)

Happy to find a working fix here relatively quickly but kind of disappointing to see this same issue has been around for 2.5+ years.
