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.

<![if !supportLists]>1. <![endif]> After installing asterisk using the following instructions;
<![if !supportLists]>a. <![endif]>sudo mkdir /usr/src/asterisk &amp;&amp; cd /usr/src/asterisk
<![if !supportLists]>b. <![endif]>sudo wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases/asterisk-11.2.1.tar.gz
<![if !supportLists]>c. <![endif]>sudo tar -xvzf asterisk-11.2.1.tar.gz
<![if !supportLists]>d. <![endif]>cd ./asterisk-11.2.1
<![if !supportLists]>e. <![endif]>sudo make clean
<![if !supportLists]>f. <![endif]>sudo ./configure
<![if !supportLists]>g. <![endif]>sudo make
<![if !supportLists]>h. <![endif]>sudo make install
<![if !supportLists]>i. <![endif]>sudo make samples
<![if !supportLists]>j. <![endif]>sudo make config
<![if !supportLists]>k. <![endif]>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?

<![if !supportLists]>2. <![endif]> 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.

Miles

Initialize it with what? If Asterisk has started and no previous
database existed it has created a new one with the schema embedded in
the code. Since usage of the astdb is up to everything else there is
nothing stored in it until other stuff puts something there.

Cheers,

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.
