http://wikipbx.wikidot.com/forum/t-233617/problems-getting-0-8-running-on-debian

but because I am new to all this, I get all kinds of errors maybe someone could shed some light on how to implement the solution correctly. Here is what I have done so far:

1)Downloaded Swig and unzipped into /usr/src/swig-2.0.0
2)Ran ./configure ( I am not sure what options if any I should put when running configure, I just ran without any)
3)When I try to run "make install" I get:

/usr/src/swig-2.0.0/Tools/config/install-sh: swig does not exist.
make: *** [install-main] Error 1

4)So I went to /usr/src/freeswitch/src/mod/languages/mod_python and tried to run "make reswig" here is what I got:
wikipbx:/usr/src/freeswitch/src/mod/languages/mod_python# make reswig
rm -f mod_python_wrap.* freeswitch.py
which swig 2>&1 »/dev/null && swig -python -c++ -I../../../../src/include -oh mod_python_wrap.h -o mod_python_wrap.cpp mod_python.i
make: *** [mod_python_wrap.cpp] Error 1

I'm sure I missed a step or a few steps, but any and all help is greatly appreciated.

thanks a lot

1)yes I have,

2)Done that and restarted and

-The last 3 lines happens when I actually load Freeswitch, not when restarting apache
-Also I actually compiled Python 2.5.5 but its shown here as 2.5.2, don't know if that makes a difference at all

2. Add these lines to the end of VirtualHost section in /etc/apache2/sites-available/wikipbx:

  <Directory /usr/src/wikipbx-0.8> Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> 

Restart apache.

3. Are there any errors displayed when apache is started?

I'm hoping someone might see an obvious error somewhere in the config files.

[ERR] mod_xml_curl.c:304 Received HTTP error 404 trying to fetch http://wikipbx.myserver.net/xml_dialplan data: [hostname=wikipbx.myserver.net&section=configuration&tag_name=configuration&key_name=name&key_value=post_load_switch.conf]

I don't seem to be getting any errors when loading apache. Any more pointers would be appreciated. I have scoured the net for similar issues but non seems to apply to my situation. Help por favor!

As for your questions:

1. You don't need to copy anything to /var/www dir. The "templates" directory is used by wikipbx internally, it's not meant to be displayed by the web server directly.

2. You don't need to create that file. Once you have mod_wsgi and wikipbx configured, freeswitch would be receiving necessary configs from that URL.

I noticed a folder called "templates" inside of wikipbx-0.8/wikipbx/wikipbxsweb.
1)which steps when installing wikipbx does the files inside this templates folder get copied to maybe a /var/www/ folder? Or I have to do that manually? I am finding that after I followed all the steps, when I go to my wikipbx.myserver.net, I'm still loading the default "It works".
However for just the heck of it, I copied all the files from this templates folder into a /var/www/xml_dialplan and when I go to wikipbx.myserver.net, something does come up, its just that there are errors, which leads me to believe that there is a step I am missing or I am doing wrong.

2)In this file:
/usr/local/freeswitch/conf/xml_curl.conf.xml,
I see this line:
<param name="gateway-url" value="http://wikipbx.yourserver.net/xml_dialplan/" bindings="configuration,dialplan,directory"/>
do I create this "xml_dialplan" manually or it should be created on one of the steps when setting up wikipbx?

This is probably quite easy for you guys, but I have tried different novice tricks that I know with no luck, any and all help is sincirely appreciated.

1. I've installed latest SWIG (2.0.0)

2. Rebuild SWIG generated files in libs/esl/python directory:
make reswig

3. Then in libs/esl/ directory:
make clean; make pymod

After that wikipbx was able to call ESL functions properly.

logger.info("creating eslconnection %s %s %s" % (socket.listen_ip, str(socket.listen_port),socket.password))
con = ESL.ESLconnection("localhost","8021","ClueCon")
if con.connected:
logger.info("connected")
else:
logger.info("NOT connected")
yield con

Today after booting computer and starting wikipbx I was able to load several pages where get_fs_connections() being used (Endpoints Manage, Gateways Managed).
Apache logs looks like this:

[Mon Jun 14 05:56:27 2010] [error] get_fs_connections()
[Mon Jun 14 05:56:27 2010] [error] 1 eventsockets
[Mon Jun 14 05:56:27 2010] [error] creating eslconnection 127.0.0.1 8021 ClueCon
[Mon Jun 14 05:56:27 2010] [error] connected
[Mon Jun 14 05:56:27 2010] [error] get_fs_connections() done

After few clicks in wikipbx interface get_fs_connections() stops working and in apache logs I have:

[Mon Jun 14 05:56:33 2010] [error] get_fs_connections()
[Mon Jun 14 05:56:33 2010] [error] 1 eventsockets
[Mon Jun 14 05:56:33 2010] [error] creating eslconnection 127.0.0.1 8021 ClueCon

Now every click on "Calls Live", "Gateways Manage", "Endpoints Manage" just hangs, without producing any output or error logs.

After that I've tried FreeSwitch ESL sample scripts freeswitch-1.0.6/libs/esl/python/events.py and its working fine everytime I'm starting it.
It has the same kind of code:

con = ESLconnection("localhost","8021","ClueCon")
#are we connected?
if con.connected:
print "connected"
con.events("plain", "all");
….

FS 1.0.6.

This problems happens with any page that is calling get_fs_connections(). E.g. (live calls, manage account, manage gateways…)
ESL.ESLconnection(…) from fsutil.py doesn't connect. The code stuck on this function and doesn't go any further.

I wasn't able to solve this issue so far.
