Hi,

I am getting problem in voiceglue installation.

I have almost completed the installation.

I do following to start voiceglue

Start Asterisk:
$ /usr/sbin/asterisk         (this /usr/sbin/asterisk is a binary file.
executing this file starts asterisk)

Start  Dynlog:
$ /etc/init.d/dynlog start  (/etc/init.d/dynlog is a shell script. In this
file dynlog_user and dynlog_group are defined to be "dynlog")

Start phoneglue:
$ /etc/init.d/phoneglue start (/etc/init.d/phoneglue is also a shell script
with user and gropu to be definrd as "phoneglue")

Start voiceglue:

$/etc/init.d/voiceglue start (/etc/init.d/voiceglue is also a shell script
with user and group defined to be "asterisk")
Starting voiceglue: Starting Voiceglue daemon: voicegluevoiceglue: user
"asterisk" unknown
 failed!

As shown in error message above, Voiceglue fails to start.

This is link to voiceglue installation guide.

..............Start copied_note
The "asterisk" user

The “asterisk” user must be present. This user is what the voiceglue process
runs as because it needs to share audio files with Asterisk. It is legal,
even with the easy way, to have Asterisk installed on a separate machine
from Voiceglue, but the “asterisk” user must be present on the voiceglue
host, and should match the uid/gid of the “asterisk” user on the Asterisk
host.
 ..................End


Now my problem is how do I make asterisk user present. Asterisk is running
but no user named "asterisk" is present. Notably I start my asterisk by
using this binary: ($ /usr/sbin/asterisk). And I don't start asterisk using
some init.d shell script like ($ /etc/init.d/asterisk start).  I have no
/etc/init.d/asterisk shell script.

All others (dynlog, phoneglue and voiceglue ) are started using shell
scripts in /etc/init.d

so now, how do I run voiceglue?  how do I make user "asterisk" present.
Any help is very much appreciated.

Thanks!

Neo
