[Freeswitch-users] mod_skypopen, new HOWTO

Sat Aug 30 17:07:08 MSD 2014

Hello

I followed the new tutorial for installing mod_skypopen.
I think I made a mistake. I chose 30 clients and one user which skype doesn't support.
Clients where started but when in freeswitch I loaded the skypeopen, it failed as said no client is logged in with my username.
The question is how I can remove settings for the skype and sett them again. let say we don't have this trouble and want to add new accounts/channel later?
Please give me some advice.

Thanks

Thx Giovanni for your great work (as always *g*).

I've setup a new Ubuntu 14.04 installation to play with skypopen:

Distributor ID:    Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Release:    14.04
Codename:    trusty

The package list mentioned in https://confluence.freeswitch.org/display/FREESWITCH/mod_skypopen below "Ubuntu 14.04.x required packages" / "Dependencies of skype client" might need an update:

E: Unable to locate package libavcodec53
E: Unable to locate package libavutil51
E: Unable to locate package libffi5
E: Unable to locate package libmng1
E: Unable to locate package libtasn1-3
E: Package 'libtiff4:i386' has no installation candidate
E: Unable to locate package libx264-123

packages to use instead:

libavcodec53:i386 => libavcodec54:i386
libavutil51:i386 => libavutil52:i386
libffi5:i386 => libffi6:i386
libmng1:i386 => libmng2:i386
libtasn1-3:i386 => libtasn1-6:i386
libtiff4:i386 => libtiff5:i386
libx264-123:i386 => libx264-142:i386

Additionally libopus0:i386 was requested.

The complete list of packages for skype is:
