SIP command not found

Question

I installed an asterisk on Ubuntu Natty,

when I go into the asterisk CLI and type sip reload or any SIP related commands, it says that the SIP command was not found

Has anyone had a similar problem before?

thanks

Answer 1

Check if the SIP channel module is loaded:

The module show command should have this line in its response:

chan_sip.so Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)

If not, check if this module is installed (it should be by default) and check the start messages in the asterisk log files.

Answer 2

If you compiled the source code, you may be missing the OpenSSL development library.

Try:

 sudo apt-get install openssl-dev (or libssl-dev on Precise) ./configure make make install
