Try to run it with this command : asterisk -vvvvvvc You'll enter into the Asterisk CLI and if something goes wrong you'll see it. After that you can quit the CLI by entering the exit command. Then you can reconnect to the CLI by typing asterisk -r. All this commands assumed you're the root user. If you are not root prefix them by sudo, by example sudo asterisk -vvvvvvc. Hope it helps, regards, Duc. share|improve this answer edited May 10 '10 at 18:11 answered May

the command asterisk -r you cannot connect to the asterisk CLI unable to connect to remote asterisk freepbx after installing asterisk 1.4.22.1. You get the message:Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk.ctl exist?). exception->() /var/lib/asterisk/bin/retrieve_conf:30 However, you can run asterisk. after installing your asterisk as above, if you reinstall freepbx (freepbx 2.5.1 version in my case - and asterisk of course must http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2800924/asterisk-unable-to-connect-to-remote-asterisk-does-var-run-asterisk-ctl-exis be running to install freepbx) and run the command amportal start, you get this message:**** ERROR IN CONFIGURATION ****astrundir in /etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf is set to '/var/run' - THIS IS WRONG.Please change it to something sensible (eg, '/var/run/asterisk') and re-run install_amp You cannot stop asterisk via amportal stop. You must use the kill command after nominating http://community.freepbx.org/t/unable-to-connect-to-remote-asterisk-does-var-run-asterisk-ctl-exist-solved/5477 the correct process to kill (which you can find via the command ps aux). I found that the appropriate setting to change to in /etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf, under the heading [directories], was:astrundir => /var/run/asterisk Asterisk must be restarted for the change to take effect. I also found that asterisk 1.2 uses the heading [global] instead of the heading [directories] in asterisk 1.4, so you must also change that heading manually to [directories] if upgrading from 1.2 to 1.4 but keeping your /etc/asterisk/ files.
