asterisk : Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk.ctl exist?) [closed]

Answer 1

just go to installation folder

cd /usr/src/asterisk
asterisk -r
reload

Answer 2

There is another solution if above didn't help, add:

noload => res_pjsip.so to /etc/asterisk/modules.conf

Answer 3

This command should work if the others did not solve the problem:

sudo asterisk -&

Answer 4

This is common problem for asterisk and this works for me

sudo su
/etc/init.d/asterisk start 
asterisk -rvvv

If not working stop it

sudo su
/etc/init.d/asterisk stop

Start it again

sudo su
/etc/init.d/asterisk start 
asterisk -rvvv

That is all

Answer 5

I had a similar issue, which was a result of the hard drive being filled up. Turns out the issue was with the cdr table being corrupted and running repair in mysql remedied the issue.

Answer 6

If other solutions doesn't work for you, just try (as root) this:

amportal restart

Hope it helps ;-)
