My Goal

My Goal is to make a easy to install PBX Based on Freebsd Freeswitch and the Fusionpbx gui.

I am tired of iso's that don't work/install correctly. So I Have taken the time to walk you through a base
install and include a script that uses ports that are maintained outside the bsd ports tree due to the fact they
are easier to maintain and update.

By Default this script installs nginx and sqlite3.<br.

If you need Apache or another web server you will have to do this yourself. (Please take the time to Document it below if you do.)
If you wish to use mysql or Postgresql then you can select them when the nginx port builds
it only installs the connector clients.
You will have to install the mysql or postgresql server either on the same box or a remote
server of your choice and configure it properly.

My new install script does all the work.
It setus up freeswitch/nginx/sqlite3/fusionpbx.
it will pull and install all the needed dependencies and configuration files for you.

FreeBSD Iso

Use 8.2 for a stable install
Download a Freebsd 8.2 install iso and burn it to a disc.
i386-net: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-i386/8.2/FreeBSD-8.2-RELEASE-i386-disk1.iso

Freebsd + Freeswitch + FusionPbx - Installation Script

Get the script here.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/152504/Freebsd-Fusionpbx

exec ./Freebsd-Fusionpbx and let it do its thing answering questions/prompts as needed.
When it prompts you for php modules you will need to select the php-fpm module.
Also when it prompts you for nginx you will need to select the http ssl module allowing
for https to function correctly

NginX Setup

Setup script takes care of this.
It is setup for https....
I am working to fix the redirect
in it so http will got to https

Postgresql Server Setup

\----Fresh pgsql install----/
cd /usr/ports/database/postgresql84-server && make install clean
To set and configure PgSQL for use with FusionPBX,
Follow this line for line.
for a fresh pgsql install follow :
su pgsql
initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1 &
createuser -S -e FusionPBX
createdb -O FusionPBX FusionPBX
psql -d FusionPBX -U FusionPBX
alter user FusionPBX with password 'pbx2010';or any passwd you want ";" required
psql -f /usr/local/www/fusionpbx/includes/install/sql/pgsql.sql FusionPBX
exit from su

For a existiting pgsql database install follow:
