Ubuntu 14.04 + Asterisk 11 + CDR-Stats
- From the sandbox
- Tutorial
I offer a step-by-step guide on installing and configuring the Ubuntu server, Asterisk telephone exchange, and CDR-STATS call processing and analytics system.
We install Ubuntu server 14.04 (LTS), downloading the distribution kit from the official site. During the installation, I pointed out SSH + LAMP + SAMBA in order to avoid the long installation process of the necessary components.
Log in to the server. The first thing I did was set up the midnight commander (I love the DOS interface, and it's convenient):
You can skip the next step if you do not need a GUI for the server.
For convenience and in view of some features of the future server, I rolled up the GUI:
After installation:
At the end of the download, we see the classic graphical user interface.
We configure all the necessary network interfaces, server names and its Alias. (I will not give examples of settings, so as not to mislead people).
The next step is to install webmin on the server. I used the official documentation from webmin.com :
After completing all the steps, webmin will be available at: your-server-ip-or-name : 10000
It is time to configure the rules for iptables. On the web, I found a very good article on securing an Asterisk server using iptables. Source: blog.ls20.com/securing-your-asterisk-voip-server-with-iptables . The article is in English, but everything is simple enough for understanding.
Now a very important point! Do not import rules into iptables in a standard way! This will not work:
Will not work.
You must perform the following steps:
Find the file /etc/iptables.up.rules and copy it somewhere (so to speak, make a backup), and replace the file etc / iptables.up.rules with the one you received as a result of the previous steps.
If you did everything correctly, then in webmin Networking / Linux Firewall you will see all the necessary rules. I put available updates for installed components:
So, the server is installed, configured and updated
It is time to install asterisk. In the current configuration, I will use Asterisk 11:
Unpack it all:
We will put some packages, if they were not installed earlier:
There are two ways further:
run the script for installing dependent packages for the Asterisk server to work:
The script puts all the necessary dependencies and packages, but a lot of unnecessary.
Installing from the sources
Before this action, I did a checkpoint on my hyper-v server, in order to avoid so to speak:
OK. packages installed. Now is the time to deal with installing Asterisk itself.
We put DAHDI:
We put LibPRI:
Well, Asterisk itself:
We select the necessary components. Since I am going to store the CDR in the MySQL database and fasten the CDR-STATS web-interface, I note that I have included the modules format_mp3 , app_mysql , cdr_mysql and res_config_mysql .
Otherwise, with the exception of sounds (and I need en, en-gb and ru) everything remains standard:
During installation, when choosing format_mp3 you need to do:
Continue the installation:
Here can be your advertising. We drink coffee, tea, cookies and expect the end of the installation process.
The next step is samples and config. Test configs:
To not create an autorun script:
Ffuuhh! Put. We start:
We connect:
Check the version of DAHDI:
Check the version of LibPRI:
So, set, looked. At the moment, asterisk is launched as root, which, as it were, is not comme il faut. Therefore, we do the following:
Create the asterisk user and add him to the asterisk group:
Created, change the rights to the necessary directories:
In the / etc / default / asterisk file, we uncomment two lines:
We start asterisk:
We look from which user Asterisk started:
And you should see something like this:
Did you see? So everything is ok. Now we will teach asterisk to write CDR in MySQL.
We put for starters:
Log in to mysql:
Create a base:
Create the “cdr” table in the “asteriskcdrdb” database, with the following structure:
Create an asterisk user with the password 'asterisk':
Now we give access for the user “asterisk” with the password “asterisk ″ to the database“ asteriskcdrdb ”only with localhost:
Now we will tell our Asterisk to write CDR to the database. To do this, uncomment and change the lines in the file “/etc/asterisk/cdr_mysql.conf”:
To apply the changes, reboot the cdr_mysql.so module:
To make sure that we did everything correctly, in the Asterisk console, enter:
If you have the same message, then everything is configured correctly.
We will use the instruction . Everything would seem simple:
But, the devil, as usual, is in the details. You will not be able to install CDR-stats in this way, because the script will fail with the following error:
As we can see, the text above contains nonsense like! DOCTYPE. I opened this script and saw various incomprehensible things. But in the end the script itself is purposeful. We cut out all unnecessary, leaving only the body of the script. Here is its text:
Do not modify the following text to avoid problems!
We launch:
The script again fails with an error:
Poking around the Internet for a second did not bring me closer to solving this issue, so I went the other way. Thoughtful smoking of the script and substances (coffee and cigarettes) led me to the following solution:
Open the lsb-release file and see:
Remember. Now:
Open the bash-common-functions.sh file. And in it we look at the function:
We see two options: lucid and precise. I chose precise (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS). And do the following:
In the file:
Further:
Press Enter
To the question:
We say:
The installer starts.
We select menu item number 1. And wait until it is installed. During installation, mongodb and postgresql will be installed. Next, we will be asked to configure the connection to MySQL:
Next, you will be asked to create a super admin for cdr-stats:
We complete the installation with the button 0. And hurray!
your-server-ip-or-name : 8008
Available. We go and admire.
The following error may occur:
What are we doing? Stop the CDR-stats:
We go in mongo:
We perform the following actions:
Exit: Ctrl + D
Go to mysql:
I currently had 3 CDR entries. Exit mysql: Ctrl + C
Open the file settings_local.py and look for the line:
Change it to 'localhost':
Save the changes and run cdr-stats:
your-server-ip-or-name : 8008
And everything starts to work.
Another important point! If you have several telephony providers or you use non-standard prefixes for accessing a local or international line, you must specify them in cdr-stats. This is done here:
Line:
Do not change the current values, leave it as it is, and add yours to the end of the line.
For example, like this:
Save the changes to the file and restart cdr-stats:
Now CDR-STATS will correctly process all calls, as you can see by visiting the corresponding menu item.
Install Ubuntu
We install Ubuntu server 14.04 (LTS), downloading the distribution kit from the official site. During the installation, I pointed out SSH + LAMP + SAMBA in order to avoid the long installation process of the necessary components.
Log in to the server. The first thing I did was set up the midnight commander (I love the DOS interface, and it's convenient):
sudo apt-get install mc -yYou can skip the next step if you do not need a GUI for the server.
For convenience and in view of some features of the future server, I rolled up the GUI:
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends lubuntu-desktopAfter installation:
sudo reboot At the end of the download, we see the classic graphical user interface.
We configure all the necessary network interfaces, server names and its Alias. (I will not give examples of settings, so as not to mislead people).
The next step is to install webmin on the server. I used the official documentation from webmin.com :
Using the Webmin APT repository
If you like to install and update Webmin via APT, edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file on your system and add the lines:deb http://download.webmin.com/download/repository sarge contrib deb http://webmin.mirror.somersettechsolutions.co.uk/repository sarge contrib
You should also fetch and install my GPG key with which the repository is signed, with the commands:cd /root wget http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc apt-key add jcameron-key.asc
You may need to run this command as root.sudo apt-key add jcameron-key.asc
You will now be able to install with the commands:sudo apt-getupdate sudo apt-get install webmin
All dependencies should be resolved automatically.
After completing all the steps, webmin will be available at: your-server-ip-or-name : 10000
It is time to configure the rules for iptables. On the web, I found a very good article on securing an Asterisk server using iptables. Source: blog.ls20.com/securing-your-asterisk-voip-server-with-iptables . The article is in English, but everything is simple enough for understanding.
Now a very important point! Do not import rules into iptables in a standard way! This will not work:
iptables-restore < filenameWill not work.
You must perform the following steps:
Find the file /etc/iptables.up.rules and copy it somewhere (so to speak, make a backup), and replace the file etc / iptables.up.rules with the one you received as a result of the previous steps.
If you did everything correctly, then in webmin Networking / Linux Firewall you will see all the necessary rules. I put available updates for installed components:
sudo apt-getupdate && sudo apt-get upgrade –y && sudo rebootSo, the server is installed, configured and updated
Install Asterisk
It is time to install asterisk. In the current configuration, I will use Asterisk 11:
cd /usr/src
wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/asterisk-11-current.tar.gz
wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/dahdi-linux-complete/dahdi-linux-complete-current.tar.gz
wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/libpri/libpri-1.4-current.tar.gzUnpack it all:
tar-zxvfasterisk-11-current.tar.gztar-zxvfdahdi-linux-complete-current.tar.gztar-zxvflibpri-1.4-current.tar.gzWe will put some packages, if they were not installed earlier:
sudo apt-get installbuild-essential libncurses5-dev openssl libxml2-devThere are two ways further:
1st way:
run the script for installing dependent packages for the Asterisk server to work:
sudo /usr/src/asterisk-11.12.0/contrib/scripts/install_prereq installThe script puts all the necessary dependencies and packages, but a lot of unnecessary.
2nd way:
Installing from the sources
Before this action, I did a checkpoint on my hyper-v server, in order to avoid so to speak:
sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev openssl libssl-dev zlib1g zlib1g-dev mpg123 linux-headers-`uname -r`build-essential mysql-server libmysqlclient15-dev php5 php5-cli php5-mysql php5-gd php-pear apache2 curl sox bison flex cpp g++ gcc make libauthen-pam-perl libio-pty-perl libnet-ssleay-perl libxml2 libxml2-dev libaudiofile-dev subversion libsqlite3-devOK. packages installed. Now is the time to deal with installing Asterisk itself.
We put DAHDI:
cd /usr/src/dahdi-linux-complete-2.10.0+2.10.0
sudo make all
sudo make install
sudo make configWe put LibPRI:
cd /usr/src/libpri-1.4.15
sudo make
sudo make installWell, Asterisk itself:
cd /usr/src/asterisk-11.12.0
./configure
sudo make menuselectWe select the necessary components. Since I am going to store the CDR in the MySQL database and fasten the CDR-STATS web-interface, I note that I have included the modules format_mp3 , app_mysql , cdr_mysql and res_config_mysql .
Otherwise, with the exception of sounds (and I need en, en-gb and ru) everything remains standard:
sudo make installDuring installation, when choosing format_mp3 you need to do:
contrib/scripts/get_mp3_source.shContinue the installation:
sudo make installHere can be your advertising. We drink coffee, tea, cookies and expect the end of the installation process.
The next step is samples and config. Test configs:
sudo make samplesTo not create an autorun script:
sudo make configFfuuhh! Put. We start:
sudo asterisk startWe connect:
sudo rasteriskCheck the version of DAHDI:
*CLI>dahdi showversionCheck the version of LibPRI:
*CLI>pri showversion
*CLI>exitSo, set, looked. At the moment, asterisk is launched as root, which, as it were, is not comme il faut. Therefore, we do the following:
sudo service asterisk stopCreate the asterisk user and add him to the asterisk group:
sudo adduser --system --group --home /var/lib/asterisk --no-create-home --gecos "Asterisk PBX" asteriskCreated, change the rights to the necessary directories:
sudo chown -R asterisk:asterisk /var/lib/asterisk
sudo chown -R asterisk:asterisk /var/log/asterisk
sudo chown -R asterisk:asterisk /var/run/asterisk
sudo chown -R asterisk:asterisk /var/spool/asterisk
sudo chown -R asterisk:asterisk /usr/lib/asterisk
sudo chown -R asterisk:asterisk /dev/dahdi
sudo chmod -R u=rwX,g=rX,o= /var/lib/asterisk
sudo chmod -R u=rwX,g=rX,o= /var/log/asterisk
sudo chmod -R u=rwX,g=rX,o= /var/run/asterisk
sudo chmod -R u=rwX,g=rX,o= /var/spool/asterisk
sudo chmod -R u=rwX,g=rX,o= /usr/lib/asterisk
sudo chmod -R u=rwX,g=rX,o= /dev/dahdi
sudo chown -R root:asterisk /etc/asterisk
sudo chmod -R u=rwX,g=rX,o= /etc/asteriskIn the / etc / default / asterisk file, we uncomment two lines:
AST_USER=«asterisk»
AST_GROUP=«asterisk»We start asterisk:
sudo service asterisk startWe look from which user Asterisk started:
ps aux|grep asterAnd you should see something like this:
asterisk 2793 3.0 0.8 2539536 26540? Ssl 20:21 0:00 / usr / sbin / asterisk -U asterisk -G asterisk
Did you see? So everything is ok. Now we will teach asterisk to write CDR in MySQL.
We put for starters:
sudo apt-get install mysql-clientLog in to mysql:
sudo mysql -pEnter password:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with; or \ g.
mysql>
Create a base:
mysql> createdatabase asteriskcdrdb;
Create the “cdr” table in the “asteriskcdrdb” database, with the following structure:
mysql> use asteriskcdrdb;
mysql>CREATETABLE`cdr` (
`acctid`int(11) NOTNULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`src`varchar(80) DEFAULTNULL,
`dst`varchar(80) DEFAULTNULL,
`calldate` datetime NOTNULL,
`clid`varchar(80) DEFAULTNULL,
`dcontext`varchar(80) DEFAULTNULL,
`channel`varchar(80) DEFAULTNULL,
`dstchannel`varchar(80) DEFAULTNULL,
`lastapp`varchar(80) DEFAULTNULL,
`lastdata`varchar(80) DEFAULTNULL,
`duration`int(10) unsignedDEFAULTNULL,
`billsec`int(10) unsignedDEFAULTNULL,
`disposition`varchar(80) NOTNULLDEFAULT'',
`amaflags`varchar(80) DEFAULTNULL,
`accountcode`int(10) unsignedDEFAULTNULL,

`userfield`varchar(80) DEFAULTNULL,
`import_cdr` tinyint(4) NOTNULLDEFAULT'0',
PRIMARY KEY (`acctid`)
) ENGINE=InnoDBDEFAULTCHARSET=utf8;
Create an asterisk user with the password 'asterisk':
mysql> CREATEUSER asterisk_user IDENTIFIEDBY'asterisk_password';
Now we give access for the user “asterisk” with the password “asterisk ″ to the database“ asteriskcdrdb ”only with localhost:
mysql> grant all on asteriskcdrdb.* to'asterisk'@'localhost'identifiedby'asterisk';
mysql> flushprivileges;
Now we will tell our Asterisk to write CDR to the database. To do this, uncomment and change the lines in the file “/etc/asterisk/cdr_mysql.conf”:
[global]
hostname=localhost
dbname=asteriskcdrdb
table=cdr
password=asterisk
user=asterisk
sock=/var/lib/mysqld/mysqld.sock
To apply the changes, reboot the cdr_mysql.so module:
sudo rasterisk
*CLI>moduleunloadcdr_mysql.soUnloaded cdr_mysql.so
== Unregistered 'mysql' CDR backend
*CLI> moduleloadcdr_mysql.soLoaded cdr_mysql.so
== Parsing '/etc/asterisk/cdr_mysql.conf': Found
-- Found alias startfor column calldate
Loaded cdr_mysql.so => (MySQL CDR Backend)
To make sure that we did everything correctly, in the Asterisk console, enter:
*CLI> cdr mysql statusConnected to asterisk on socket file /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock using table cdr for0 hours, 2 minutes, 7 seconds.
Wrote 0 records since last restart.
If you have the same message, then everything is configured correctly.
Installing CDR-STATS
We will use the instruction . Everything would seem simple:
wget –no-check-certificate https://raw.github.com/Star2Billing/cdr-stats/master/install/install-cdr-stats-asterisk.sh -O install-cdr-stats-asterisk.sh
bash ./install-cdr-stats-asterisk.shBut, the devil, as usual, is in the details. You will not be able to install CDR-stats in this way, because the script will fail with the following error:

======================================
1) Install All
2) Install CDR-Stats Web Frontend
3) Install CDR-Stats Backend / CDR-Stats-Celery
4) Install MongoDB
0) Quit
(0-4): 1
We select menu item number 1. And wait until it is installed. During installation, mongodb and postgresql will be installed. Next, we will be asked to configure the connection to MySQL:
Enter database settings for Asterisk ...
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root' @ 'localhost' (using password: YES)

We will now add a Primary Key to your CDR database
We advice you to first backup your database prior continuing
Next, you will be asked to create a super admin for cdr-stats:

The following error may occur:
No data can be found in your collections, please make sure the import of data is working correctly.
What are we doing? Stop the CDR-stats:

Go to mysql:
sudo mysql -p mysql> use asteriskcdrdb;
mysql> update cdr SET import_cdr = 0;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.24 sec)
Rows matched: 3 Changed: 0 Warnings: 0
I currently had 3 CDR entries. Exit mysql: Ctrl + C
cd /usr/share/cdr-statsOpen the file settings_local.py and look for the line:

LOCAL_SWITCH_IP = 'localhost'Save the changes and run cdr-stats:
sudo service cdr-stats-celeryd startyour-server-ip-or-name : 8008
And everything starts to work.
Another important point! If you have several telephony providers or you use non-standard prefixes for accessing a local or international line, you must specify them in cdr-stats. This is done here:
/usr/share/cdr-stats/setting_local.pyLine:
PREFIX_TO_IGNORE = "+, 00,000,0000,00,000,011,55555,99999"
Do not change the current values, leave it as it is, and add yours to the end of the line.
For example, like this:
PREFIX_TO_IGNORE = "+,00,000,0000,00000,011,55555,99999,8,810,9,910"Save the changes to the file and restart cdr-stats:
sudo service cdr-stats-celeryd restartNow CDR-STATS will correctly process all calls, as you can see by visiting the corresponding menu item.
