An update on my stability issues. On saturday I returned home to find my system broken. I took the opportunity to migrate over to the SanDisk card I bought on friday... on which I had installed 0.6.2 build 2252. Today, monday afternoon, the system is broken again... and I have been doing NOTHING to it (other than make/receive calls) for the last couple of days. There is also nothing in syslog to suggest a problem. I am beginning to suspect that this is nothing to do with flash card! Definition of broken is that Asterisk is hung in some fashion... local extensions cannot register. Will not respond to incoming calls, etc. Internet gateway is still active. I can ssh in but when I attempt to connect to asterisk (asterisk -r) then the asterisk CLI does not come up.... get asterisk welcome message, but no CLI prompt. Cannot even ctrl-C out. I disconnected ssh and reconnected and looked at all running processes... plenty of asterisk processes running. I did a killall -9 asterisk which terminated (probably ungracefully) all asterisk processes. Then I restarted asterisk simply by typing "asterisk". I was then able to connect to the asterisk CLI and do a sip show registry, sip show peers and found that everything was fine. Asterisk is handling calls for me again.
I am not at home so cannot debug any further (like check for flash card integrity). But I am getting suspicious that something was introduced to the 0.6.2 branch that caused this instability. I was running fine for months on svn 2084 level. Gut instinct suggests asterisk 1.4.23rc3... and maybe we should have stick on 1.4.22 for the "stable" 0.6.x branch? David
