SARK V4.0.0 Raspi
INTRODUCTION
SARK V4.0.0 can be run for test and evaluation purposes on the low-cost Raspberrypi ARM platform. This platform is NOT recommended for use in a production environment (we suggest you consider the SARK 200 - SARK preinstalled on ARM commercial ARM-based platform if you require a low-cost/low-power SIP PBX) but it's great for learning SARK in a low cost environment. You'll also be surprised at just how fast SARK4 runs on the little ARM processor.
Raspi Install
Installing your Raspberrypi is easy! Just imagecopy (use dd under linux) the Raspberrypi "Raspbian" image onto a 4Gb (or larger) SD Card (see here - http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads). Then follow the steps below to install a full function SARK image.
Step 1 run raspi-config to expand the partition to fill the SD Card
sudo raspi-config reboot
Step 2 - install SARK prerequisites
log back into your raspi cli and install the pre-reqs
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get install asterisk dahdi apache2 sqlite3 php5-sqlite php-pear xinetd tftpd tftp libio-socket-multicast-perl libapache2-mod-php5 sudo apt-get install libdbi-perl libdbd-sqlite3-perl runit sox mysql-server asterisk-mysql php5-mysql nmap zip ntp ssmtp php-net-ipv4
- specify the mysql root password when it asks
- specify your country-code for Asterisk when it asks
Now, get a cup of tea; the above takes about 30 minutes to finish...
Step 3 - install sark
wget sailpbx.com/sail/sail-4.0-beta/debs/sailhpe_4.0.0-18_armhf.deb wget sailpbx.com/sail/sail-4.0-beta/debs/sail_4.0.0-18_all.deb dpkg -i sailhpe_4.0.0.-17.armhf.deb dpkg -i sail_4.0.0-17.all.deb
Step 4 - set up the cdr database
mysql -u root --password={whatever-you-picked-when-it-installed} < /opt/sark/stat/asterisk-stat-v2/cdr-mysql-setup.sql
Step 5 - have a play
You can browse to SARK at the IP address of the Raspi. It's a full V4 install so it will do everything big-sark will do. The only thing missing on this initial release is a timing source so you can't use the Asterisk conference facility.
