A2Billing v2.2 Guía de instalación

Enviado por powerpbx el sábado, 16/01/2016 - 01:41
(http://www.asterisk2billing.org/)
Esta guía le mostrará cómo instalar A2Billing (http://www.asterisk2billing.org)

v2.2 en CentOS v7. Se supone que ya tiene Linux, Asterisk y Freepbx
instalados usando un procedimiento similar a este
(http://www.powerpbx.org/content/asterisk-freepbx-install-guide-centos-v7-asterisk-v13-
freepbx-v13) .
También se asume que ha compilado el módulo del
controlador en tiempo real de asterisco (res_config_mysql)
seleccionándolo en el menú del asterisco antes de compilar el asterisco.
No cubrimos la instalación del demonio de devolución de llamada.
Probado utilizando el siguiente software:
CentOS (http://centos.org/) v7
Asterisk (http://www.asterisk.org/) v11 (v13 parece funcionar. La función
de devolución de llamada puede requerir un parche)
FreePBX (http://freepbx.org) v13
A2billing (http://asterisk2billing.org) v2.2
Suposiciones
Modo de texto de la consola (multi-usuario.target)

Instalación realizada como usuario root (#)
Los siguientes 2 diagramas ilustran el flujo de llamadas entrantes y

salientes de A2billing.

Instalar paquetes adicionales necesarios si no están ya instalados
yum -y actualizar && yum -y groupinstall core && yum -y groupinstall

base && yum -y instalar epel-release
yum -y instalar php-mcrypt php-xml perl-DBD-Pg git
Otro
Si utiliza este procedimiento en un sistema de Asterisk solo sin freepbx,

aún necesita muchos de los paquetes requeridos por freepbx instalados.
Se pueden encontrar al comienzo de este procedimiento
(http://www.powerpbx.org/content/asterisk-freepbx-install-guide-centos-v7-asterisk-v13-
freepbx-v13) .
Obtener fuente A2billing
cd / usr / src
git clone -b 'v2.2.0' --single-branch
https://github.com/Star2Billing/a2billing.git
Obtener paquetes de proveedores utilizando compositor.
cd / usr / src / a2billing

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
php composer.phar actualizacion
php composer.phar instalar
Crear la contraseña de root de MySQL
Si no creó una contraseña de root de mysql durante la instalación de

asterisco, debe crear una ahora.
mysqladmin -u contraseña de root 'rootmysqlpassword'
Crear base de datos A2billing
cd / usr / src / a2billing

mysql -u root -p <DataBase / mysql-5.x / a2billing-createdb-user.sql
el cual, después de ingresar su contraseña de root, creará:
Nombre de la base de datos: mya2billing

Usuario de la a2billinguser
base de datos: Contraseña del usuario de la base de datos: a2billing
Ahora ejecute el script para crear tablas e inserte algunos datos de

configuración básicos
cd /usr/src/a2billing/DataBase/mysql-5.x
./install-db.sh
Responda las preguntas de la siguiente manera:
Introduzca el nombre de la base de datos: mya2billing

Introduzca el nombre de host: localhost
Enter UserName: root
Enter Password: {mysql-root-password...not a2billing db password}
Now check that the database and 90+ tables have been created
mysql -u root -p mya2billing

>show tables;
Should produce

cp /usr/src/a2billing/a2billing.conf /etc/
Make sure the following parameters are set as shown.
nano /etc/a2billing.conf
[database]
hostname = localhost
port = 3306
user = a2billinguser
password = a2billing
dbname = mya2billing
dbtype = mysql
Create files and set permissions
Only required if not using Asterisk realtime. We are including this
section for legacy purposes.
Some of these files assume you have FreePBX installed and not just
Asterisk. If you just have Asterisk installed then use the files
specified in the INSTALL.rst instructions included with A2billing source
files.
touch /etc/asterisk/additional_a2billing_iax.conf
touch /etc/asterisk/additional_a2billing_sip.conf
echo \#include additional_a2billing_sip.conf >>
/etc/asterisk/sip_custom.conf
echo \#include additional_a2billing_iax.conf >>
/etc/asterisk/iax_custom.conf
chown -Rf asterisk. /etc/asterisk/additional_a2billing_iax.conf
chown -Rf asterisk. /etc/asterisk/additional_a2billing_sip.conf
chmod -R 640 /etc/asterisk
Run sound installation script

cd /usr/src/a2billing/addons/sounds
./install_a2b_sounds.sh
chown -R asterisk:asterisk /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/
Add the following to /etc/asterisk/manager_custom.conf
You can also do it via the Freepbx Asterisk API module. If you don't
have Freepbx installed then you should follow the INSTALL.rst
instructions included with the a2billing source files.
[myasterisk]
secret=mycode
deny=0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
permit=127.0.0.1/255.255.255.0
read=system,call,log,verbose,command,agent,user
write=system,call,log,verbose,command,agent,user
Add fwconsole blacklist
This is very important. Without this, a reboot or fwconsole

restart or fwconsole chown command will delete necessary symlinks in
a2billing.
nano /etc/asterisk/freepbx_chown.conf
[blacklist]
directory=/var/www/html/a2billing/
Set up a2billing web folders
A2billing has 3 GUI sections. admin, agent, and customer.
mkdir /var/www/html/a2billing
cp -rf /usr/src/a2billing/admin /var/www/html/a2billing

cp -rf /usr/src/a2billing/agent /var/www/html/a2billing
cp -rf /usr/src/a2billing/customer /var/www/html/a2billing
cp -rf /usr/src/a2billing/common /var/www/html/a2billing
cp -rf /usr/src/a2billing/vendor /var/www/html/a2billing
chown -R asterisk. /var/www/html/a2billing

chmod 755 /var/www/html/a2billing/admin/templates_c
chmod 755 /var/www/html/a2billing/customer/templates_c
chmod 755 /var/www/html/a2billing/agent/templates_c
Prevent public access to /common and /vendor folders. This has not

been exhaustively tested. If it causes internal access problems please
let us know.
echo 'Deny from all' > /var/www/html/a2billing/common/.htaccess

echo 'Deny from all' > /var/www/html/a2billing/vendor/.htaccess
Check admin web interface
From a web browser go to http://{my-ip-address}/a2billing/admin and

make sure you get the authentication screen. Log in as follows.
user: root
password: changepassword
Once logged in click change password link at bottom left and change it.
Set up AGI
mkdir /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin
cd /usr/src/a2billing/AGI
cp a2billing.php /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin
cp a2billing_monitoring.php /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin
chown -R asterisk. /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin
chmod 755 /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/a2billing.php
chmod 755 /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/a2billing_monitoring.php
ln -s /var/www/html/a2billing/common/lib /var/lib/asterisk/agi-
bin/lib
ln -s /var/www/html/a2billing/vendor /var/lib/asterisk/vendor
Add the following extensions to

/etc/asterisk/extensions_custom.conf
If not using Freepbx then this would go into

/etc/asterisk/extensions.conf . Customize this to your needs.
The 1 in a2billing.php,1 refers to the default agi-conf1 configuration

in a2billing system settings. It is possible to add additional agi-conf
such as agi-conf2 etc. via System Settings > Add agi-conf .
nano /etc/asterisk/extensions_custom.conf
[a2billing-did]
exten => _X.,1,AGI(a2billing.php,1,did)
exten => _X.,n,Hangup()
[a2billing-out]
exten => _X.,1,AGI(a2billing.php,1)
exten => _X.,n,Hangup()
Add custom destinations to FreePBX via FreePBX

GUI>Admin>Custom Destinations
These destinations are referring to the custom extensions created above

in /etc/asterisk/extensions_custom.conf
Target: a2billing-did,${EXTEN},1
Description: A2Billing - Inbound
Target: a2billing-out,${EXTEN},1
Description: A2Billing - Outbound
Create inbound route
We are creating a universal DID inbound route. This requires _. in the

DID number field. That is underscore character followed by period or
dot character.
Connectivity > Inbound Routes
Description: Some descriptive name
DID number: _.
Set Destination: Custom Destinations

A2Billing - Inbound
Start or restart FreePBX
fwconsole restart
Cron
Copy cron files to some permanent location such as /usr/local
mkdir -p /usr/local/a2billing
cp -R /usr/src/a2billing/Cronjobs /usr/local/a2billing/
ln -sf /var/www/html/a2billing/common/lib
/usr/local/a2billing/Cronjobs/lib
chown -R asterisk. /usr/local/a2billing

touch /var/log/a2billing/a2billing_agi.log
chown -R asterisk. /var/log/a2billing
Add index file to prevent browsing of folders
touch /var/www/html/a2billing/index.html
Log into the webpage
http://{my-ip-address}/a2billing/admin
user: root
pass: mynewpassword
Or use default password changepassword if you have not changed it yet
and then click the change password link at the bottom left.
Set Asterisk version in A2Billing
Go into System settings>Global list. Go to the bottom left and set to
display all. From your web browser search for "asterisk_version". It
will find that setting twice. One for Global group and one for agi-conf1
group. Change both accordingly. If using Asterisk v11 or v13 then use
"1_11"
Disable Asterisk Realtime if not setting up the following Asterisk

Realtime procedure. Go to System settings>Global search for "realtime".
Change that setting to "no".
Asterisk Realtime
If using Asterisk Realtime you do not need to reload every time you
add/remove/change a customer. It also allows you to share the
A2billing database between multiple Asterisk/Freepbx servers. If you
need to create many customers it makes more sense to use a database
rather than a flat text file.
Double check you have the Asterisk Realtime module installed.
cd /usr/lib64/asterisk/modules
dir
There should be a file there called res_config_mysql.so . If not you need
to re-compile Asterisk and set it to compile the res_config_mysql.so
realtime module in menuselect.
Add the following to /etc/asterisk/extconfig.conf
nano /etc/asterisk/extconfig.conf
NOTE: [settings] is already included and uncommented in this file in

asterisk sample configurations. So if you installed asterisk samples or
Freepbx and this file already exists and you are trying to add to it, do
not add this line twice.
[settings]
iaxusers => mysql,general,cc_iax_buddies
iaxpeers => mysql,general,cc_iax_buddies
sipusers => mysql,general,cc_sip_buddies
sippeers => mysql,general,cc_sip_buddies
Add the following to /etc/asterisk/res_config_mysql.conf
nano /etc/asterisk/res_config_mysql.conf
NOTE: [general] is already included and uncommented in this file in

asterisk samples. So if you installed asterisk samples or Freepbx and
this file already exists and you are trying to add to it, do not add this
line twice.
[general]
dbhost = 127.0.0.1
dbname = mya2billing
dbuser = a2billinguser
dbpass = a2billing
dbport = 3306
;dbsock = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
Assuming (as we did in this guide) that the dbname= mya2billing ,

dbuser= a2billinguser , dbpassword= a2billing . Double check that
these settings match /etc/a2billing.conf and substitute as necessary.
Now restart freepbx/asterisk
fwconsole restart
To check if realtime is working:
From Asterisk CLI>

# asterisk -vvvr
> core show config mappings
Should produce:
Config Engine: mysql

===> iaxpeers (db=general, table=cc_iax_buddies)
===> iaxusers (db = general, tabla = cc_iax_buddies)
===> sippeers (db = general, table = cc_sip_buddies)
===> sipusers (db = general, table = cc_sip_buddies)
Después de agregar un cliente a A2Billing, y suponiendo que el número

de cuenta del cliente es, por ejemplo, 1234567890
> realtime load sipusers name 1234567890
debe producir:
Nombre de columna Valor de columna

----------- ------------
id 1
id_cc_card 1
nombre 1234567890
código de cuenta 1234567890
regexten 1234567890
facturación de amaflags
grupo de llamadas
identificador de llamadas . . .
maxcallbitrate
proxy de salida
rtpkeepalive 0
agente de usuario
callbackextension
...
...
...
En la GUI de A2Billing, vaya a Configuración del sistema> Global y

busque realtime . Cambie esa configuración a yes si no . Si ya
yes tiene problemas, intente cambiarlos no y guardarlos y luego volver
a cambiarlos yes y guardarlos.

can confirm, but cli when registering sip user displays wrong password. any
help would be great. my module are in place and working, I see in my database
the user account, name and secret. realtime load sipusers name 123456789
produces the date correct. what i'm I missing!

Thanks PowerPBX. Just Tested on SNG7-FPBX-14 with asterisk 13.
Had to skip install epel-release php-mcrypt and php-xml
Rest of the steps pretty much same. Was able to pass calls and Realtime
worked fine too.
Just a note: you can add the other a2billing contexts, including [a2billing] as
these are needed for default settings.
Shawn • a year ago

Thank you PowerPBX. I following your instructions and I have my FREEPBX
and A2Billing interface working now. This is my first time doing this
installation and the documentation provided was perfect.
@@Nguyễn Tuấn Cường : I got the error below also, but once i rebooted the
server, I was able to login to FREEPBX just fine.

This Guide worked fine in a FreePBX 13 and Centos 7 and PHP 5.4.16 with the
following modifications :
1) change chmod -R 640 /etc/asterisk by change chmod -R 755 /etc/asterisk or

it will cause FreePBX issue
2) Use OBDC (res_config_odbc.so ) module instead of the deprecated mysql
module for the real time configuration
3) rename the context [a2billing-out] by [a2billing] or make an Asterisk
include ( SIP accounts use this context by default a2billing)
Jon • 2 years ago

I've installed a2billing, on CentOS7 with PHP5.4.
When trying to add a DID through the Admin web interface, I get an error
message on the page:
"Your new did hasn't been inserted."
In the httpd/error_log it's stated:

PHP Strict Standards: Non-static method constants::getActivationList()
should not be called statically in
/var/www/html/a2billing/admin/Public/form_data/FG_var_did.inc on line
52, , referer:
http://XXXXXXXXXXX/a2billing/admin/Public/A2B_entity_did.php?
form_action=ask-add§ion=8
The code on line 52 of that file "FG_var_did.inc":

$actived_list = Constants::getActivationList();
The PHP version I'm using is:

PHP 5.4.16 (cli) (built: Nov 6 2016 00:29:02)
Copyright (c) 1997-2013 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.4.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2013 Zend Technologies
I've already disabled "~E_STRICT" in php.ini.
Anyone got any ideas how to resolve this?

Hi, thanks for your useful tutorials. Please tell me if there need any further
settings if I want to use a2b with pjsip.
Luigi Albanese • 3 years ago

Hi. Just follow you install procedure for installing asterisk 13.13.1 freepbx and
a2bliing 2.2. All went well. Only problem is that when I create a client in a2b.
Then try to register with credentials given from a2b to enter in softphone it
gives me wrong password and endpoint not found. But the I create an
extension in freepbx it's credential work well. Some home a2b credentials not
being reconized in asterisk and freepbx. Any feed back would be great. Been
racking my head over this trying different senarios but no luck. Thank-You.

There were changes made by freepbx that caused the blacklist to stop
working. The procedure has been updated with the new syntax. Just
redo the procedure.

Hi
Finally got everything installed. Unfortunately the moment when I log into
a2billing I get the following error:
Dear A2Billing Administrator

Licence Violation!
Thank you for using A2Billing. However, we have detected that you
have edited the Author’s names, Copyright or licensing information in
the A2Billing Management Interface.
The AGPL 3
license under which you are allowed to use A2Billing requires that the
original copyright and license must be displayed and kept intact.
Without this information being displayed, you do not have a right to use
the software.
However, if it is important to you that the Author’s names,

i h d i i f i i di l d ibl f

If you are using freepbx this is most likely because of a change they
recently made to freepbx_chown.conf syntax. That results in the
a2billing symlinks being deleted if using the old syntax. We have
updated the procedure with the new syntax for freepbx_chown.conf.
You need to update that and recreate the symlinks or redo the
procedure.

Hi
Very nice guide, but I am hitting a snagg. When I create incoming route with _.
am keeps on getting the following:
PDOException
(23000)
SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1048 Column 'mohclass'
cannot be null
Your help would be appreciated
Thanks

We have not seen that before.
There is an older bug report with that error.
There may be some clues in the bug report.
