SARK 4.0.1 Beta Wheezy Install

This page assumes you already have installed a working 4.0.0 version of sail and that it is the latest release. If it isn't then install/upgrade it using the notes elsewhere in the wiki.

There is currently no repo image for 4.0.1 Beta so you will need to download the package and install it with dpkg. Proceed as follows;

wget  http://sailpbx.com/sail/sail-4.0/debs/sail.gpg.key
apt-key add sail.gpg.key
echo deb http://sailpbx.com/sail/sail-4.0/debs/repo/ wheezy main >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update

On some older S200 installs you may see a key verification error. You can fix this with the following (run apt-get update again after you apply).

gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 8B48AD6246925553
gpg -a --export 8B48AD6246925553 | apt-key add -

Now you can install sail

apt-get install sail

The install will take a good few minutes depending upon the speed of the donor box and your internet link. During the install you will be asked to enter a root password for MySQL (make a note of it, you'll need it later). You will also be asked to enter the international dial code (IDD) for your country. For example, if you are in the UK, this would be 44. Let the install run to its conclusion.

Seed the CDR database

Now you can seed the Asterisk MySQL CDR database with the following command (substitute the MySQL root password you gave during the sail installation).

mysql -u root --password={your mysql root password} < /opt/sark/stat/asterisk-stat-v2/cdr-mysql-setup.sql

Install Asterisk extra sounds package

SAIL requires the Asterisk extra sounds package. There is no deb available for this but it's pretty easy to install. At the linux CLI do the following

cd /usr/share/asterisk/sounds
wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/sounds/asterisk-extra-sounds-en-gsm-current.tar.gz
tar xvfz asterisk-extra-sounds-en-gsm-current.tar.gz
rm asterisk-extra-sounds-en-gsm-current.tar.gz

Clean up

You're done - reboot it

reboot

your sail app will be at http://your.server.ip.address

• UID - admin
• PWD - sarkadmin

Installing a Mail agent

You can use whatever mail agent you like on your server. Exim, sendmail, whatever is your favourite. SARK has on-board support for a lightweight mail agent called ssmtp. If you install it then sark will provide a tab in the networking section for you to configure it. Install it with...

apt-get install ssmtp

There is a setup guide for Asterisk vmail to email HERE
