Michael, thank you for your quick response. I've made a good
amount of progress since my last email. I was able to successfully
install the Apache webserver on Alpine. The problem was because I
was not running Alpine from the hard drive of the Guest OS inside
VirtualBox.
Currently, I am adapting this install procedure for Alpine:
http://www.freepbx.org/support/documentation/installation/install-procedure-for-centos-4-3
which is for CentOS Linux. As far as I can tell, these are all of
the dependencies needed for the install (I put x's next to the
ones that I was able to add with apk):
make x
gcc x
uclibc-dev x
glib-dev x
g++ x
libxml2-dev x
tiff-dev x
mysql-server
php-gd x
php-mysql x
installkernel x
bison x
ncurses-dev x
audiofile-dev
subversion x
libogg-dev x
openssl-dev x
mysql-dev x
lame x
asterisk x
asterisk-dev x
The only two dependencies I couldn't find were mysql-server and
audiofile-dev. The installation has gone smoothly up until trying
to setup the MySQL database. I'm getting the following error even
though the mysql process is running:
# mysqladmin create asterisk
mysqladmin: could not connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password:
NO)'

I also have been trying to get freepbx installed on alpine few weeks ago.
Freepbx depends on sql database, and because of the design philosophy
of Alpinelinux I have tried to install it with Sqlite3 support (which
should be partially supported by Freepbpx). Some info can be found
here: https://freetel.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/freetel/freepbx-sandbox/README.txt
SQLite driver should still be added to Alpinelinux asterisk package
if needed (i can send a patch if needed).
If you would choose to use MySQL, you will have to compile asterisk
addons because this holds the mysql driver for asterisk (I have tried
this but i was not successful , not sure what the error was).
The dependency list you mention is very outdated, i think you fetched
this one from the included readme. I suggest you go over the install
process and see what is missing.
One bigger deb which is missing from this list is perl, some scripts
depend on perl (maybe these could be converted to another language (sh
or php).
The tiff deps are included for fax support, I recently added fax
support to asterisk and it should be working (depends on perl).
Sorry if all this info seems a bit messy, if you need help of getting
this to work I am willing to help. I would love to get Freepbx running
with as less deps as possible.
