CentOS Install

Preface
The following instructions were written for CentOS 5.6. http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/isos/ After installing CentOS follow the instructions below.

Dependencies
Install the following dependencies yum install subversion autoconf automake libtool gcc-c++ git-core ncurses-devel make expat-devel bison zlib zlib-devel yum install nano unixODBC-devel openssl-devel gnutls-devel libogg-devel libvorbis-devel curl-devel libtiff-devel libjpeg-devel python-devel expat-devel zlib zlib-devel bzip2

GIT Install
cd /usr/local/src yum -y install gcc make gettext-devel curl-devel wget http://kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/git-1.7.4.tar.bz2 tar -xvjf git-1.7.4.tar.bz2 cd git-1.7.4 make prefix=/usr/local all make prefix=/usr/local install

FreeSWITCH Install
Then use the following

cd /usr/src/ git clone git://git.freeswitch.org/freeswitch.git cd /usr/src/freeswitch ./bootstrap.sh

Edit modules.conf to enable or disable desired modules. To enable a few extra features you may want to go ahead and edit modules.conf. Remove the # in front of the lines with these modules: mod_rtmp mod_directory mod_callcenter mod_tts_commandline mod_dingaling mod_flite mod_shout mod_pocketshpinx mod_cidlookup

Complete the FreeSWITCH compile.

./configure make install make samples

8 kHz Standard Audio make sounds-install make moh-install

16 kHz High Definition Audio make hd-moh-install make hd-sounds-install

32 kHz Ultra High Definition Audio make uhd-moh-install make uhd-sounds-install

48 kHz CD Quality Audio make cd-sounds-install make cd-moh-install

To upgrade FreeSWITCH in the future do the following:

cd /usr/src/freeswitch make current

FreeSWITCH Auto Start
Copy the sample-init-file to /etc/init.d/

cp build/freeswitch.init.redhat /etc/init.d/freeswitch

Replace /opt/freeswitch with /usr/local/freeswitch in the /etc/init.d/freeswitch

sed -i 's/\/opt\/freeswitch/\/usr\/local\/freeswitch/g' /etc/init.d/freeswitch

Set the permissions and add it to run on startup

chmod 765 /etc/init.d/freeswitch /sbin/chkconfig --add freeswitch /sbin/chkconfig --level 5 freeswitch on /sbin/chkconfig --list freeswitch

FreeSWITCH conf
Disable the following files but leave them for examples

cd /usr/local/freeswitch/conf/dialplan/default mv 00_ladspa.xml 00_ladspa.noload mv 00_pizza_demo.xml 00_pizza_demo.noload mv 01_Talking_Clock.xml 01_Talking_Clock.noload

Repositories
CentOS does not yet ship a recent enough version of PHP in order to use PHP FPM (fast cgi), so we suggest you use the RPMs provided in the Webtatic repository. To do so:

rpm -Uvh http://repo.webtatic.com/yum/centos/5/latest.rpm

SELinux
Can create problems for file access and running services. The following link describes how to disable SELinux.

http://www.crypt.gen.nz/selinux/disable_selinux.html

SQLite
Is installed with PHP

PostgreSQL
Postgres 8.4 or higher is required. The following instructions install version 9.0 Replace the custom-username and custom-password with the account information.

http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/YUM_Installation (additional information)

Locate and edit your distributions .repo file, located: [base] and [updates] sections nano /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo

To the section(s) identified above, you need to append a line: exclude=postgresql*

Download and install PGDG RPM file wget http://www.pgrpms.org/9.0/redhat/rhel-5-i386/pgdg-centos-9.0-2.noarch.rpm rpm -ivh pgdg-centos-9.0-2.noarch.rpm yum install postgresql90-server service postgresql-9.0 initdb /sbin/chkconfig postgresql-9.0 on service postgresql-9.0 initdb service postgresql-9.0 start su postgres psql CREATE ROLE custom-username WITH SUPERUSER LOGIN PASSWORD 'custom-password'; \q exit sed -i 's/ident/md5/g' /var/lib/pgsql/9.0/data/pg_hba.conf service postgresql-9.0 restart

MySQL
Check to see if MySQL is installed yum --enablerepo=remi list mysql mysql-server If it is installed then update it to a newer version

yum --enablerepo=remi upgrade mysql mysql-server

If it is not installed then add it

yum –-enablerepo=remi install mysql mysql-server /sbin/chkconfig mysqld on service mysqld start

Set the root password mysqladmin -u root password new_password_here mysqladmin -h 127.0.0.1 -u root password new_password_here

PHP
rpm -Uvh remi-release-5*.rpm epel-release-5*.rpm yum --enablerepo=remi install php php-common php-pdo php-soap php-xml php-xmlrpc yum --enablerepo=remi upgrade php php-common php-pdo

For PostgreSQL add

yum --enablerepo=remi install php-pgsql

For MySQL then add

yum --enablerepo=remi install php-mysql

Web Server
There are multiple choices for a web server to use. These instructions focus on nginx because it takes very little server resources and scales well.

NGINX (pronounced: engine x)

yum --enablerepo=remi install nginx php-fpm /sbin/chkconfig php-fpm on /sbin/chkconfig nginx on

Add the following directories.

mkdir /etc/nginx/sites-available mkdir /etc/nginx/sites-enabled

Remove the original config and add a more flexible one.

cd /etc/nginx rm nginx.conf wget http://www.fusionpbx.com/downloads/centos/nginx/nginx.conf cd /etc/nginx/sites-available wget http://www.fusionpbx.com/downloads/centos/nginx/fusionpbx.conf ln /etc/nginx/sites-available/fusionpbx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/fusionpbx.conf

OpenSSL
Make sure the /etc/ssl directory exists mkdir -p /etc/ssl Change the directory cd /etc/ssl Generate a private key: openssl genrsa -des3 -passout pass:fusionpbx_cert_password -out fusionpbx.ssl.key 1024 Remove password from private key: openssl rsa -in fusionpbx.ssl.key -passin pass:fusionpbx_cert_password -out fusionpbx.ssl.key.nopass Create a CSR (certificate signing request): openssl req -new -key fusionpbx.ssl.key.nopass -out fusionpbx.ssl.csr -subj "/CN=fusionpbx/OU=Project/O=FusionPBX/L=Boise/C=US" Generate self-signed cert: openssl x509 -req -days 3650 -in fusionpbx.ssl.csr -signkey fusionpbx.ssl.key.nopass -out fusionpbx.ssl.crt

FusionPBX
Download FusionPBX source and add it to the web server directory.

cd /var/www sudo svn checkout http://fusionpbx.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/fusionpbx /var/www/fusionpbx

If you get an error: 'svn: command not found.' Then add subversion. Then run the svn checkout again.

yum install subversion

Permissions
There are multiple ways to handle permissions. FreeSWITCH creates some file on demand such as voicemail and does not give the necessary group permissions because of that the following method is currently recommended. This method adds the www-data user, changes ownership of the files to use www-data and then make the php-fpm and freeswitch services run as www-data.

/usr/sbin/adduser www-data chown -R www-data:www-data /usr/local/freeswitch chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/fusionpbx sed -i 's/user = apache/user = www-data/g' /etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf sed -i 's/group = apache/group = www-data/g' /etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf sed -i 's/${FS_USER-freeswitch}/${FS_USER-www-data}/g' /etc/init.d/freeswitch chown -R www-data:www-data -R /var/lib/php/session

Network Time Protocol
If NTP is not installed then install it.

yum install ntp chkconfig ntpd on ntpdate pool.ntp.org service ntpd start

If NTP is running then do the following:

service ntpd stop ntpdate pool.ntp.org service ntpd start

Fail2ban
Brute force attacks are common. If the SIP and RTP ports are exposed to the Internet then it is important to install and configure Fail2ban. Fail2ban can be configured to analyze the FreeSWITCH logs. When attacker are identified it blocks the offenders.

yum install fail2ban cd /etc/init.d /sbin/chkconfig fail2ban on

The configurations directory is /etc/fail2ban

For more info go to Fail2Ban

Browser
To complete install go to the ip address or domain of the server in your web browser. You can use http or https and follow the instructions.

Login
After completing the install the default login information is:

user: superadmin

pass: fusionpbx

TDM notes
Optional TDM card notes. These notes have not been updated in a while. CentOS Install TDM
