Dependencies
Install the following dependencies
yum install subversion autoconf automake libtool gcc-c++ git-core ncurses-devel make expat-devel 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 gcc-c++ make gettext-devel expat-devel curl-devel zlib-devel openssl-devel bzip2 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_spandsp mod_shout mod_flite mod_pocketshpinx
Complete the FreeSWITCH compile.
./configure make install make cd-sounds-install make cd-moh-install make hd-moh-install make hd-sounds-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
Open /etc/init.d/freeswitch and change the freeswitch-directory from /opt/freeswitch to /usr/local/freeswitch
nano /etc/init.d/freeswich
PID_FILE=${PID_FILE-/usr/local/freeswitch/run/freeswitch.pid}
FS_FILE=${FS_FILE-/usr/local/freeswitch/bin/freeswitch}
FS_HOME=${FS_HOME-/usr/local/freeswitch}
Set the permissions and add it to run on startup
chmod 765 /etc/init.d/freeswitch chkconfig --add freeswitch chkconfig --level 5 freeswitch on chkconfig --list freeswitch
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 REMI repository. To do so:
wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-5.rpm rpm -Uvh epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm rpm -Uvh remi-release-5.rpm
Database
SQLite
Is installed with PHP
PostgreSQL
yum --enablerepo=remi install postgresql
MySQL (needs testing)
Before installing the remi packages, it is suggested that you install the dependent libraries. The upstream packages does not have the correct version and conflict with each other. If you don't have 64-bit support, just remove x86_64 from the below packages.
wget http://downloads.mysql.com/archives/mysql-5.1/MySQL-shared-compat-5.1.30-0.rhel5.x86_64.rpm rpm -Uvh MySQL-shared-compat-5.1.30-0.rhel5.x86_64.rpm
If you get a conflict, force it.
rpm -Uvh MySQL-shared-compat-5.1.30-0.rhel5.x86_64.rpm --force
Now that you have all the version of mysql client libraries; things just install cleanly.
rpm -Uvh remi-release-5*.rpm epel-release-5*.rpm yum --enablerepo=remi install php php-common php-mysql php-pdo php-soap php-xml php-xmlrpc yum --enablerepo=remi upgrade php php-common php-pdo
PHP
rpm -Uvh remi-release-5*.rpm epel-release-5*.rpm yum --enablerepo=remi install php php-common php-pgsql php-pdo php-soap php-xml php-xmlrpc yum --enablerepo=remi upgrade php php-common php-pdo
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
Add the following directories.
mkdir /etc/nginx/sites-available mkdir /etc/nginx/sites-enabled
Remove the original config and add a more flexible one.
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
Add a user for nginx to run under
adduser www-data
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 changes ownership of the files to use www-data and then make the php-fpm and freeswitch services run as 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.
