Thanks a lot Robby. I am using Debain. Voiceglue 0.9. I compiled voiceglue the hard way mentioned in installation guide (using source).<br><br>I solved problem by changing user "asterisk" to "root" in following files:<br>
<br>Shell script:<br>/etc/init.d/voiceglue <br>Perl script:<br>/usr/bin/voiceglue<br>I will aslo try adding user asterisk.<br><br><br>Now I can play tts (using flite) or audio file over phone using simple vxml program.<br>
But I am unable to use even simple DTMF Menu. It plays a tts over phone: "A serious error has occured. Exiting".<br><br><b>Program: dtmfmenu.vxml</b><br><br> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><br>

Normally the user is created as part of installing the package. The best practice is to run asterisk under the asterisk user, and never under the root user.<br>
If you compiled Asterisk from source you will probably need to create the user yourself using the useradd command (see 'man useradd' for more info).<br>
<br>
A few questions:<br>
<br>
-What distribution are you running?<br>
-Did you compile from source instead of using that distribution's build in packages?<br>

Subject: [Voiceglue] Problem in installing voiceglue<br>
<br>
<br>
Hi,<br>
<br>
I am getting problem in voiceglue installation.<br>
<br>
I have almost completed the installation.<br>
<br>
I do following to start voiceglue<br>
<br>
Start Asterisk:<br>
$ /usr/sbin/asterisk (this /usr/sbin/asterisk is a binary file. executing this file starts asterisk)<br>
<br>
Start Dynlog:<br>
$ /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")<br>
<br>
Start phoneglue:<br>
$ /etc/init.d/phoneglue start (/etc/init.d/phoneglue is also a shell script with user and gropu to be definrd as "phoneglue")<br>
<br>
Start voiceglue:<br>
<br>
$/etc/init.d/voiceglue start (/etc/init.d/voiceglue is also a shell script with user and group defined to be "asterisk")<br>
Starting voiceglue: Starting Voiceglue daemon: voicegluevoiceglue: user "asterisk" unknown<br>
failed!<br>
<br>
As shown in error message above, Voiceglue fails to start.<br>
<br>
This is link to voiceglue installation guide.<br>
Link: <a href="http://voiceglue.org/wiki/doku.php?id=voiceglue_0.9_installation_instructions" target="_blank">http://voiceglue.org/wiki/doku.php?id=voiceglue_0.9_installation_instructions</a><br>
<br>
..............Start copied_note<br>
<br>
The "asterisk" user<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The ?asterisk? user must be present. This user is what the voiceglue process runs as because it needs to share audio files with Asterisk. It is legal, even with the easy way, to have Asterisk installed on a separate machine from Voiceglue, but the ?asterisk? user must be present on the voiceglue host, and should match the uid/gid of the ?asterisk? user on the Asterisk host.<br>
..................End<br>
<br>
<br>
Now my problem is how do I make asterisk user present. Asterisk is running but no user named "asterisk" is present. Notably I start my asterisk by using this binary: ($ /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.<br>
<br>
All others (dynlog, phoneglue and voiceglue ) are started using shell scripts in /etc/init.d<br>
<br>
so now, how do I run voiceglue? how do I make user "asterisk" present.<br>
Any help is very much appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
<br>
