\nThis is done with an install of Trixbox CE 2.6.2.3 (Stable) found here<\/a>. Trixbox, as you all know, is a bootable ISO that installs centos and a complete working install of asterisk and FreePBX GUI. I love it!<\/p>\n
This install contains something called web-meetme<\/a>, which is a web interface into scheduling conferences. It\u2019s features include:<\/p>\n I didn\u2019t even burn a server to install this on, I just loaded it up on one of our VMWare servers, so we really are spending no money on the project.<\/p>\n Web-meetme screen shots:<\/strong><\/p>\n Add Conference<\/p>\n View Current Confs<\/p>\n View Users in Conf<\/p>\n Here are the config steps I took once trixbox was installed and IPd.<\/p>\n Install the Misc Appliaction module:<\/strong><\/p>\n Setup Misc Destination:<\/strong><\/p>\n Setup Misc Application:<\/strong><\/p>\n Be sure to apply changes.<\/p>\n To fix a web-meetme security issue<\/strong> (allow you to view conferences and attendants), edit \/etc\/asterisk\/phpagi.conf. You need to add the following:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n I didn\u2019t want my Trixbox to be able to dial out, so I didn\u2019t add any outgoing route patterns, but you do need to configure incoming route patterns. If you leave any DID information blank, it will capture ANY incoming call and force it into the conference bridge, which is what I wanted. I also wanted to lock down my admin pages so that only my subnet can hit the admin pages, but my entire organization can hit the web-meet me.<\/p>\n Edit \/etc\/trixbox\/httpdconf\/trixbox.conf<\/strong><\/p>\n Add the following code:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n You will also want to update the allow list for your existing maint and admin dirs.<\/p>\n The above was stolen from this link<\/a> and kludged together from random others.<\/p>\n To get the SIP trunk from callmanager<\/strong> I followed the directions listed here<\/a>. I\u2019m just posting the link, since this is all in one page.<\/p>\n Once done, route one of your DIDs from callmanager to the sip trunk.<\/p>\n To get started with web-meetme, you can hit the direct link at http:\/\/serverIP\/web-meetme and login with the following default accounts<\/strong>:<\/p>\n Admin, Standard user: There are a couple of bugs in the PHP user code<\/strong>. When you try and add new users sometimes they are created with null passwords. Also, the password update code is bricked. Here\u2019s the fix: I also did some tweaking to the php code. There is a limitation on the number of recurring days you can set daily and weekly meetings for. I wanted to be able to schedule these things out for years! By default you can only set daily for 14 days and you can only set weekly for 26 weeks\u2026I modified it a bit Edit \/var\/www\/html\/web-meetme\/meetme_control.php as described below: <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Modify \/var\/www\/html\/web-meetme\/lib\/defines.php as follows: <\/p>\n <\/p>\n defines.php also has some of the default values for the notification emails.<\/p>\n In closing, I would recommend you guys install webmin for easier system administration. In webmin, I would set the server to sync with an NTP time server, that way your conference scheduling is accurate!<\/p>\n If you want to do some trouble shooting, from the asterisk CLI (asterisk -r) issue the following: Elastix<\/a> is an opensource PBX much like trixbox, but appears to be actively developed unlike the CE version of trixbox, which is dead. Anyway, the configuration is close, but you need to make a couple of modifications. BTW, elastix has a much prettier interface! First we have to unembed freePBX. Here’s how: Once freePBX breaks out you can follow the instructions above save for having to modify any PHP code. Everything seems to be working in their code \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n One last thing you will need to do is edit the extension config file like so: Restart your asterisk services and you should be rocking and rolling!<\/p>\n Elastix has fine grained control for conferencing. You can basically lock it down so users only see the conference section when they log in. Once you get this all setup and you add a conference, you dial in. You are prompted to type the conference #, and if you specified a Pin, it will ask you for it. Then you are joined to the bridge. If you use the announce check box, it prompts you to record your name and you are announced when you enter and leave the room.<\/p>\n I hope you find this useful, because I think it\u2019s frickin cool. It is going to save us somewhere around $500 a month! Let me know what you guys think in the comments. Also as I make adjustments, I\u2019ll add them to this page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This is using Trixbox as a web scheduled conference bridge for your Cisco Callmanager.

\nThere is a typo in one of the .php files for Web Meetme.
\nEdit \/var\/www\/html\/web-meetme\/user_add_sqldb.php<\/strong>
\nSearch for \u2018userPassr\u2019 and change \u2018userPassr\u2019 to \u2018userPass\u2019 (removing the \u2018r\u2019 on the end).
\nAlso there is another error in Line 94 comment out $userPass = \u201cpassword=\u2019$userPass\u2019\u201d; and insert instead $userPass = \u201c$userPass\u201d;
