Talk:Installing Trixbox 2.0 in CentOS VE

In attempting to follow these instructions I've found the following:

I am using the http://download.openvz.org/beta/templates/precreated/centos-5-x86.tar.gz template.

Between the "Add character device" and the "Install rpmforge & apt" steps you'll probably want to do 

vzctl enter <VEID>

I found that for some reason rpm could not access the files so I had to do the following to install rpmforge: 

SITE="http://dag.wieers.com/packages/rpmforge-release/"
wget ${SITE}/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm

Install apt: 

SITE="http://dag.wieers.com/packages/apt/"
wget ${SITE}/apt-0.5.15lorg3.2-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm 
rpm -ivh apt-0.5.15lorg3.2-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm

Also note that I am using the el5 versions of these rpms.

Yum is available in the el5 template that I used so I didn't have to install it.

In the step, "Install speex and libspeex-devel" I found it easier to use yum. 

yum install speex speex-devel

It appears that the folks that brought us Trixbox would rather us download and install an ISO. You have to dig pretty deep to find an RPM file. I finally found one: 

wget http://yum.trixbox.org/centos/5/RPMS-2.6.0.7/trixbox-2.6.0.0-3.i386.rpm

I found that there were a great number of dependencies that were not found by yum. It appears that you must use a large number of the files at ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/yum.trixbox.org/centos/5/RPMS/. I wrote a simple perl script to download all the files and built a yum repository containing them.


I used the following yum command to install: 

yum --nogpgcheck --enablerepo=trixbox localinstall trixbox-2.6.0.0-3.i386.rpm

There's a Trixbox Yum repo

Rather than downloading the Trixbox RPM and building a local repo, do this: 

echo '[trixbox]
name=trixbox RPM Repository for CentOS and RHEL
baseurl=http://yum.trixbox.org/centos/$releasever/RPMS/
gpgcheck=0
enabled=1' > /etc/yum.repos.d/trixbox.repo

And then do: 

yum install trixbox

None of the trixbox references at the end of the article are still valid URLs.
