[Freeswitch-users] Freeswitch on system startup on Fedora 16

[T T]

Hi,

I've installed FreeSWITCH on Fedora 16. I want FreeSWITCH to be
launched  at system startup.

I've put a bash script from
http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Freeswitch_init#Fedora

into /etc/init.d directory with corrected paths, and run
#chckconfig freeswitch on

FreeSWITCH doesnt start at system startup.

Running
#service freeswitch start
Starting freeswitch (via systemctl):                       [  OK  ]

... but FreeSWITCH doesnt actually start.

Running
#systemctl enable freeswitch.service
freeswitch.service is not a native service, redirecting to /sbin/chkconfig.
Executing /sbin/chkconfig freeswitch on
Warning: unit files do not carry install information. No operation executed.

Running
# chkconfig --list freeswitch

Note: This output shows SysV services only and does not include native
      systemd services. SysV configuration data might be overridden by native
      systemd configuration.

freeswitch     	0:off	1:off	2:on	3:on	4:on	5:on	6:off

Running
#/usr/local/freeswitch/bin/freeswitch

works fine.

Please help. Thanks. The init script is below:

cat /etc/init.d/freeswitch
#! /bin/sh
#
# freeswitch:       Starts the freeswitch Daemon

# chkconfig: 345 96 02
