No, this is a patch for the 1.2 branch only. There is a patch for the 1.4 branch though, have a look here. It's probably worth mentioning that the (beta) 1.6 branch now has a completely re-written sip stack, with (somewhat buggy) tcp support too. Note: anyone looking for production-quality sip tcp support is probably better off to stay away from asterisk altogether. Preferable alternatives are openser and freeswitch.

I’m using Asterisk 1.4.xx, will this patch work with newer version?

I tried this, and TCP is loaded by Asterisk. That’s great. But when I add transport=tcp in the PEER settings for a trunk, the trunk stops working. Anybody else run into this?

I’m not very familiar with trixbox Doug, but I’ll give whatever help I can

First things first: What’s the output of

asterisk -vvvc

And did the patch run successfully? (any warnings or errors?)

Hi,
I tried to upgrade the TCP support on my 1.2.24 Asterisk/Trixbox system. It seems like everything worked. But I am not Linux knowledgable.

When I tried to start Asterisk it just did not start.

I have a text file of the start of Asterisk and didn’t see anything obvious.

I was running in a VMware machine and had a backup. I also backed up the VM that has the TCP patch so I can start it to try and determine the problem.

Any help is appreciated.

I wish I was more helpful in identifying the problem. If you could tell me what to try or do to get any information for you, let me know.

Can you help?
Doug
