There's a file called freeswitch.pid in the path: opt/freeswitch/run/ freeswitch.pid I changed the permissions for the file to read / write / execute. However, I still received the same error. I rebooted the Ubuntu server and the permissions reverted back to the previous setting.

I realized I wasn't entering the command properly. Sorry for the confusion.

However, I'm now getting the following error:

Does anyone know why we're seeing that error?

Thanks, Ken
