Hi, and welcome to FreeSWITCH ! You've done everything right, now you only need to tell your system to run that init script during startup ;-) As root, do this: chkconfig --add freeswitch chkconfig --level 2345 freeswitch on That's all.

Hello,

I am a newbie to FS and I want learn it. So I setup a Centos 5.2 (fresh install) and followed the instruction on the wiki installed the new Freeswitch v1.0.3. After the installation I can start FS by issus command "/usr/local/freeswitch/bin/freeswitch".

After that I copied freeswitch.init.centos5 to /etc/init.d/freeswitch and chmod it to 755. Reboot the server and FS is not running.

If I try the start up script:

[root@localhost build]# /etc/init.d/freeswitch start Starting freeswitch: [ OK ]

[root@localhost build]# /etc/init.d/freeswitch status freeswitch dead but subsys locked

Did I miss somthing here? Please help. Thanks a lot.
