I was just not aware that it didn't. Could you please file a new issue for it on bugs.alpinelinux.org, so I don't forget it.
I definitely think that would be the way to go. The problem is, in my mind (possibly spoiled by other distros) I expect to install freeswitch, freeswitch-sample-config, and freeswitch-sounds-* and have at least voicemail and other basic apps. However they fail and crash due to the incorrect file paths. Do you guys agree/disagree with this thought process? Unfortunately they can only be changed globally via the switches.
Natanael Copa <ncopa@alpinelinux.org>I did try fix the default locations to be configurable at build time but I don't remember if I ever made it work. The intention was to store data in /var/lib/freeswitch by default. http://jira.freeswitch.org/browse/FS-302Tobie Booth <tbooth@hindbra.in>Hmm interesting. Might see if that still works in 1.4.0 if I find the time.Another unrelated issue is that it does not currently build with musl libc and we need to fix that before 3.0 release.Tobie Booth <tbooth@hindbra.in>Yea, TL;DR we’re looking at using Alpine as the basis for one of our VoIP on-site PBX solutions. In the end we’ll have our own repo with our proprietary stuff in it but would love to use any of the packages we need that already exist. Regarding that would love to help out any way we can to get make sure the Freeswitch-* packages stay current/working. Unfortunately none of us are any good at C so I wouldn’t even know where to start on that lol.-nc --- Unsubscribe: alpine-devel+unsubscribe@lists.alpinelinux.org Help: alpine-devel+help@lists.alpinelinux.org ---

Unfortunately none of us are any good at C so I wouldn*t even know where to start on that lol. Other thing I just realized is that the current stable freeswitch branch seems to be v1.2. They did v1.2.23 in March 19, 2014, while latest v1.4 was 12 July 2013. v1.4 seems to be a beta branch. Oh, they actually do 'releases', at least they do release tags once in a while: http://git.freeswitch.org/git/freeswitch/ v1.5.11 is tagged. But they don't upload those to http://files.freeswitch.org/ I have always found the freeswitch release engineering very confusing. If someonw has any good ideas what to do with freeswitch (eg which version do we ship with alpine 3.0), please let me know. -nc --- Unsubscribe: alpine-devel+unsubscribe@lists.alpinelinux.org Help: alpine-devel+help@lists.alpinelinux.org ---

I think a lot of it stems from the fact that master on the git used to be considered stable (tagged versions only existed to please other distros by having a tagged stable). They’ve recently changed that and started going back to 1.2.* = stable, 1.4.* = beta, master = dev. So technically I think the packaged version in main should be 1.2.*.

Changed the freeswitch package's freeswitch.initd to include the switches for the grammar, recordings, storage, and sounds directories. Currently without them it's trying to use the default /usr prefix making voicemail and other things unusable out of the box. The switches are set as follows: Recordings - /var/lib/freeswitch/recordings (this directory already exists) Grammar - /var/lib/freeswitch/grammar (this directory already exists) Sounds - /usr/share/freeswitch/sounds (this directory already exists) Storage - /var/lib/freeswitch/ (this will cause http_file_cache and voicemail directories to be created on first start) Thanks. --- main/freeswitch/freeswitch.initd | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)

Der Tiger <der.tiger.alpine@arcor.de>Hi, In order to make those switches adjustable by the user, I suggest to set them in /etc/conf.d/freeswitch utilizing the ${OPTS} variable in the init.d script rather than make them hard-coded in /etc/init.d/freeswitch itself, because some folks my want to store recordings on a different drive or use their own set of grammar and voice files.
