FreeSWITCH installed from packages (CentOS or Debian) places config in /etc/freeswitch. This is not unusual.

Are you certain the file is present and has correct permissions such that the user you're running FreeSWITCH under (usually 'freeswitch') is able to read it?

Hi Joli,

 

While it can be installed to any root, you would have had to manually changed things to install in /etc. 

 

Are you sure your freeswitch is not in /usr/local/freeswitch?

 

If so it is your startup scripts that are not correct.  When you say “I restarted it” does that mean you did a “service freeswitch restart (or start)”

 

If this is urgent and freeswitch is actuall in /usr/local/freeswitch start it manually from /usr/local/freeswitch/bin.

 

Then we can figure out what is not configured correctly.

Subject: [Freeswitch-users] Couldnt open /etc/freeswitch/freeswitch.xml

 

Hello,

 

I have a production Freeswitch box and this morning I noticed FS was not working.  I restarted it and got this message.  As far as I know no one has touched the box, but not 100% sure.  Any ideas why I am getting this.  I researched and a lot of the hits I got was due to a bad install, but this box has been working correctly for over 6 months.

 

 

[ERR] switch_xml.c:1385 Couldn't open /etc/freeswitch/freeswitch.xml (No such file or directory)

 

 

 

Thanks,
