to CentOS or not to CentOS that is the question!
Good Day FSers. We recently purchased some a108D cards from Sangoma and went about building some freeswitch servers... We were testing one of these boxes with SIP traffic, there were about 150 calls or so when freeswitch segfaulted in ftmod_wanpipe.so - there was absolutely no TDM traffic at this time. I pinged a mail to sangoma along with diagnostic logs etc and they told me that Debian wheezy (the os running) wasn't supported and I must use CentOS 6.x as the kernel in debian is too bleeding edge. I did protest but that is the story. I've never had any issues with debian and freeswitch over the years and this is the first time I've every heard anyone refer to a debian stable release as too new :) So off I go to move these boxes to CentOS but I seem to be noticing on mailing lists/ jira / generally in the community that CentOS 6 and freeswitch isn't recommended by freeswitch as there are performance issues and stability issues possibly..
From Jira even a moment ago:
'Though we no longer support 1.2 or centos6 I had a look to see if there was anything obvious.' What is the best way to proceed if I need to use wanpipe with sangoma and freeswitch? Thanks Brian
Our current recommended platform is Debian stable.
From 2006-2011 we used CentOS5 and switched to Debian where we still remain.
We may change again in the future based on the circumstances at hand but it's not very likely or frequently that we change our development platform. Sangoma may have different requirements but we cannot control those. On Tue, Sep 16, 2014 at 1:19 PM, dotnetdub <dotnetdub@gmail.com> wrote:

Hello Brian, Just for information, we have been using FS (1.5.11) on CentOS 6.5 in a production environment for a year now and we didn't experience any trouble (crash or performance issue) so far. However, we don't handle many concurrent sessions (300 at peak, meaning 150 calls, proxying rtp!). Regards Florent 2014-09-16 20:28 GMT+02:00 Anthony Minessale <anthony.minessale@gmail.com>:

Thanks Anthony, thanks Florent. I'm going to have another chat with Sangoma - our preferred platform is Debian and the kernel in wheezy is anything but bleeding edge. On 17 September 2014 10:48, Florent Krieg <flokrrr@gmail.com> wrote:
