I thought FreePBX was easier to use.
FreePBX stays up to date. Elastix does not.
That plays a lot into the look and feel of the systems.

The NTG guys definitely lean toward Elastix. I thought FreePBX was easier to use.
Try installing FreePBX without using their ISO, it has some larger complications.

I've seen the same said for Elastix, but it seems that 4.0 at least only misses a couple things based on your recent post.

Better than MT at least. That didn't work at all.

LOL, now that's funny. The very first PBX I stood up with a self installed FreePBX on Cloud@Cost, and yes, it was painful, but after 4 days I did get it working.

@Dashrender Was most of that 4 days spent waiting for their systems to write your information to disk? lol.

LOL - nice! nah, back in the beginning things were a bit more usable, it was digging through forums looking for solutions to problems, how to install xyz to make things work.. what settings to change, yada yada.

Hi I wanted to install Elastix MT in a VPS environment. Followed your instruction but was not able to load ISO.. is there a minimum requirement for the VPS thank you in advance

Where are you running into the issue? What command is failing?
-
Welcome to the community, by the way @norojoshi

Other than offering CentOS 6, no I do not believe so.

mount -o loop /tmp/elastixmt.iso /mnt/elastixmt
Thank you for your prompt reply i am not being able to mount the ISO getting error
[root@77167 tmp]# mount -o loop /tmp/elastixmt.iso /mnt/elastixmt
mount: Could not find any loop device. Maybe this kernel does not know
about the loop device? (If so, recompile or `modprobe loop'.) -
@norojoshi Ah, okay. So that should be fixable. Sounds like the loopback mount is missing. Could be a bad kernel. What VPS host are you on? What kernel are you running?

Thanks once again for your prompt reply, I am not a Linux expert but the details are as below
Linux 77167.datasoft.ws 2.6.32-43-pve #1 SMP Tue Oct 27 09:55:55 CET 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The VPS is Datsoft Networks then? Their phone number is from St. Louis. Interesting that I have never heard of them.
-
Yes from datasoft
-
I have used them for more than 3 years and provide very cheap VPSs
-
Looks like Datasoft is using ProxMox. So not VMs, but Containers for Linux. So the kernel is coming from the VM underneath. This isn't "exactly" a VPS, it's actually a VPC. Normally not an issue but I assume that there is no control over the kernel here and they must have compiled one that lacks the necessary drivers.

Yeah, doing Containers would let them have even higher than normal Linux server density as they are running only a single kernel amongst all of the customers on a single piece of hardware. It's very efficient, but you are a little more like Docker than like a VM.
