Hello everyone, my name is Miles, I am fairly new to asterisk. I have recently begun to learn asterisk and I have a couple of questions.

1. After installing asterisk using the following instructions;

a.sudo mkdir /usr/src/asterisk && cd /usr/src/asterisk

b.sudo wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases/asterisk-11.2.1.tar.gz

c.sudo tar -xvzf asterisk-11.2.1.tar.gz

d.cd ./asterisk-11.2.1

e.sudo make clean

f.sudo ./configure

g.sudo make

h.sudo make install

i.sudo make samples

j.sudo make config

k.sudo service asterisk start

The astDB did not automatically initialize. i.e. performing the following commands

Asterisk --rx "database show" produced no output.

IS THERE A WAY TO INITIALIZE THIS DATABASE WITHOUT HAVING TO INSERT A FAMILY AND VALUE?

2. Does any one know of a simple open source switchboard script that places the caller into a que and gives CALLERID, TIME ON HOLD, and a way to either forward the call or answer it? Something I use to modify and learn how it all works more or less?

Thanks ahead of time.



Actually, if you are looking for a prebuilt ready to use Asterisk your best bet is to download a distribution like Elastix. If you want to start from scratch without any experience you will be hitting to many walls.
