[Freeswitch-users] Installing freeswitch-1.2.5.3 on CentOS 5

[Sean Devoy]

HI Chen,

I am certainly no expert, but I just completed installing FS 1.2.5.3 on
Centos 5.8 today.  The first issue I had was EPEL must be added when
installing on Cenots 5.n

My second error was I used "make & make install" <== WRONG.  It should have
been "make && make install"

Here are the exact commands I used ,  comments in ():
login root
	cd /usr/local/src
(Add EPEL for 32 bit Centos 5.n):  	rpm -Uvh
http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm

Install pre-reqs:
	yum install autoconf automake gcc-c++ git-core libjpeg-devel libtool
make ncurses-devel pkgconfig unixODBC-devel openssl-devel libogg-devel
libvorbis-devel curl-devel libtiff-devel libjpeg-devel python-devel
expat-devel zlib zlib-devel bzip2 which gdbm-devel db4-devel

	git clone -b v1.2.stable git://git.freeswitch.org/freeswitch.git
	cd /usr/local/src/freeswitch
	./bootstrap.sh                (takes a while)
	./configure
	make  	            (takes 20 minutes or more)
	make install  

I hope that helps.
Sean

Hi,

I am having trouble installing freeswitch-1.2.5.3 on CentOS 5.5 from
freeswitch-1.2.5.3.tar.bz2.
The following error shows up during make. I installed
autoconf26x-2.63-4.ius.el5.
How can I tell make to use autoconf26x instead of autoconf? Thanks.

You have another version of autoconf.  It may work, but is not guaranteed
to.
If you have problems, you may need to regenerate the build system entirely.
To do so, use the procedure documented by the package, typically
`autoreconf'.
