Try Trixbox

Today, my company has a new project that need to deal with voip stuff. My boss wants me to going to see what's wrong with email function on the box he's setting up(It can't send email to user when others leave him a voice mail). It use trixbox and he try to fix it for a week.

I don't want to interfere his system, It's work fine as a main pbx for our company except that email problem. So I setup a new box to test. After installation finish(very easy just put installation disc into cd drive and wait about 20 mins.), I use browser browse to the Trixbox configuration page. Fews things need to do before go furture. First login to Package manager(need to register) site to install two trixbox modules(webmin and phpmyadmin).Next install&upgrade modules of FreePBX. Now, my freepbx is ready to add a new user and I'll have my own voip network.


My new setup box is work perfectly include email function. When I leave someone a voice mail, Trixbox sends him and email suddenly. I'm going to check email log(/var/log/mail.info) on my smtp server and found
Apr 26 10:20:09 email postfix/smtpd[11592]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[x.x.x.x]: 554 Service unavailable; Client host [x.x.x.x] blocked us
ing dnsbl.njabl.org; 1124588055; from=<asterisk@myemail.com> to=<boss@mycompany.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<myemail.com>
Apr 26 10:20:09 email postfix/smtpd[11592]: disconnect from unknown[x.x.x.x]
That's it. The address on that box was listed at http://dnsbl.njabl.org as open proxy(don't know why). So my smtp box just don't let it go through. I send request to delist that ip address. It take 2 hours then everything work.

Fixing sendmail take a long time to start

I notice that my database box[FC6+Oracle10.2] take along time to startup. Sendmail and sm-client very very slow to start[ about 5 minutes ]. There's something wrong in /etc/hosts file. 'newalises' command take long time to update and finish with error below. [root@ora10g ~]# newaliases WARNING: local host name (ora10g) is not qualified; see cf/README: WHO AM I? /etc/aliases: 76 aliases, longest 10 bytes, 765 bytes total [root@ora10g ~]# cat /etc/hosts # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.1.55 ora10g [root@ora10g ~]# To fix this, custom hostname[ora10g] need to append to localhost line in /etc/hosts.

Too many open files

Last week tomcat log file report many error about "Too many open files" when it has high traffic. Some in catalina_log say 2007-04-07 16:13:40 HttpProcessor[80][272] Starting background thread 2007-04-07 16:13:40 HttpConnector[80] accept: java.net.SocketException: Too many open files and here is from localhost_log 2007-04-07 16:13:40 StandardWrapperValve[myservlet]: Servlet.service() for servlet myservlet threw exception java.io.FileNotFoundException: /home/log/mylog_070407.log (Too many open files) This is because too many file descriptors're opened by tomcat. File descriptor can be limited in both system level and shell level. To check maximum number of fd in system type 'cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max'. In my case it is 65536(someone said it should set to 200000). Tomcat error when try to open socket number 272 so I think 65536 is ok for me for now. Anyway if u want to set it add 'fs.file-max = 200000' to /etc/sysctl.conf pnix@pnix-a7:~$ cat /proc/sys/fs/fil

using Class.getResource() load resource file in Eclipse

There are many ways to load resource file in java app. What sun recommended is using Class.getResource(" resource_name ") or Class.getResourceAsStream(" resource_name ") then you will get URL and InputStream respectively. If resource_name is specified without "/", it will be prepend with Class package. So resource file must be in same place[folder structure] as the Class. What I love to do is call getResource() with "/" and put resource file at the root of package. This way i can have separate resource folder. below is in Eclipse, 1. From Package explorer right click src folder->click import 2. In import dialog, Choose General->File System ->next 3. from directory:->Browse to your resource folder. 4. to folder:-> I add "resource" as a folder name under src folder. then click "Finish". In the code, load resource with this.getClass().getResource("/resource/buttons1.png") or this.getClass().getResourceAs
