When asterisk has vmdbmysql support added it starts before mysql if they are both in the default runtime. This causes asterisk to crash because it cannot connect to the mysql database. Asterisk appears to come up just fine but instead it siletly crashes. A manual restart (stop -> zap -> start) brings asterisk up like expected. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Actual Results: Asterisk silently dies in the background. Expected Results: Asterisk should come up after mysql and if it does crash it should not appear to be started (red marks vs green) This happens with Asterisk 1.0.9
Created attachment 66452 [details, diff] asterisk-init-dbsupport.patch adding "mysql" after "use" in /etc/init.d/asterisk script should solve your problem.
commited change.
