How to fix the Python repo for Vicidial – Repository ‘openSUSE-Leap-15.2-Devel-Languages-Python’ is invalid.

So I know a lot of you have asked about the python repo issue with leap 15.2 after upgrading so here is a quick fix in relation to that.

Step 1 – Remove the bad repo

Its most likely going to be listed on the 1 slot as below but make sure by typing:

• zypper lr

Remove it by typing zypper rr with the number, in this case 1

• zypper rr 1

Step 2 – Add the new repo

zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:languages:python:Factory/openSUSE_Leap_15.2/devel:languages:python:Factory.repo
zypper refresh

That’s all there is to it, I hope this helps

How to – use one dynamic portal for whitelisting and have it sync across an entire cluster

This article will go over a method I have recently come up with in order to have your agents sign in through one dynamic portal and have their IP validated across all servers in the cluster.

Step 1 – Generate a SSH key

In your linux cli simply type “ssh-keygen” and just press enter for all default values with no password as shown below

Step 2 – copy the ssh key to the other servers you need it synced to

ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub 192.168.80.121 (replace IP with the servers Ip’s as you do each one)

Type yes and then enter the servers root password, do these steps for each server in your cluster

Step 3 – rsync the Dynamic IP firewall list to the other servers

Replace the IP’s with each one in your cluster and repeat this step for each

• Vicibox9 users use this command: /usr/bin/rsync -a -e “ssh” /tmp/VB-DYNAMIC-tmp root@192.168.80.121:/tmp/
• Vicibox10 users use this one: /usr/bin/rsync -a -e “ssh” /tmp/dynamiclist-add-tmp root@192.168.80.121:/tmp/

Step 4 – Now add a cronjob to have this done every minute with one line for each server as shown below

• ###Dynportal Sync
• * * * * * /usr/bin/rsync -a -e “ssh” /tmp/dynamiclist-add-tmp root@192.168.80.120:/tmp/
• * * * * * /usr/bin/rsync -a -e “ssh” /tmp/dynamiclist-add-tmp root@192.168.80.121:/tmp/

That’s all there is to it, now you can have your agents login through a single dynamic portal and sync it through to all servers in your cluster.

I hope this helps

How to – scratch install Vicidial on Ubuntu

This article will go over how to scratch install Vicidial on Ubuntu 14 – 22

Step 1 – The Basics

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install apache2 -y
apt-get install build-essential -y
apt-get install mariadb-client-10.3 -y
apt-get install mariadb-server -y

apt-get install subversion libjansson-dev sqlite autoconf automake libxml2-dev libncurses5-dev -y

add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php

apt-get install iftop lame libmysqlclient* -y

apt update
apt upgrade

sudo apt-get install apache2 apache2-bin apache2-data libapache2-mod-php7.4 php7.4 php7.4-cli php7.4-common php7.4-json php7.4-mysql php7.4-readline sox lame screen libnet-telnet-perl php7.4-mysqli -y

apt-get install libasterisk-agi-perl -y

apt-get install libelf-dev -y

apt-get install autogen libtool shtool -y

apt-get install libc6-i386 -y

Step 2 – The CPAN’s

root@vici01:~# cpan

install below modules

install CPAN::Meta::Requirements
install CPAN
reload cpan
install YAML
install MD5
install Digest::MD5
install Digest::SHA1
install Bundle::CPAN
reload cpan
install DBI
force install DBD::mysql
install Net::Telnet
install Time::HiRes
install Net::Server
install Switch
install Mail::Sendmail
install Unicode::Map
install Jcode
install Spreadsheet::WriteExcel
install OLE::Storage_Lite
install Proc::ProcessTable
install IO::Scalar
install Spreadsheet::ParseExcel
install Curses
install Getopt::Long
install Net::Domain
install Term::ReadKey
install Term::ANSIColor
install Spreadsheet::XLSX
install Spreadsheet::Read
install LWP::UserAgent
install HTML::Entities
install HTML::Strip
install HTML::FormatText
install HTML::TreeBuilder
install Time::Local
install MIME::Decoder
install Mail::POP3Client
install Mail::IMAPClient
install Mail::Message
install IO::Socket::SSL
install MIME::Base64
install MIME::QuotedPrint
install Crypt::Eksblowfish::Bcrypt
install readline

Step 3 – Install Asterisk and Dahdi:

Install dahdi

apt install dahdi*

Test dahdi

modprobe dahdi

root@vici02:~# /usr/sbin/dahdi_cfg -v

DAHDI Tools Version – 2.11.1-rc1

DAHDI Version: 2.11.1-rc1

Echo Canceller(s):

Configuration

======================

Channel map:

0 channels to configure.

Install Asterisk

cd /usr/src
wget http://download.vicidial.com/beta-apps/asterisk-16.17.0-vici.tar.gz
tar -xvf asterisk-16.17.0-vici.tar.gz
cd asterisk-16.17.0-vici/
./contrib/scripts/install_prereq install 
./bootstrap.sh

This could take time..

./configure –libdir=/usr/lib –with-gsm=internal –enable-opus –enable-srtp –with-ogg=/usr/lib64/ –with-ssl –enable-asteriskssl –with-pjproject-bundled

make && make menuconfig

select app_meetme in Applications(Vicidial Need this for conference)

make install && make samples && make basic-pbx

Step 4 – WebRTC Extra steps(IF YOU DONT NEED WEBRTC SKIP BELOW STEPS)

Note: Since WebRTC need SSL i am using my Public Domain to Generate SSL from Let’s Encrypt.
How to Generate SSL: Link here

sample http.conf

cat /etc/asterisk/http.conf
[general]
enabled=yes
bindaddr=0.0.0.0
bindport=8088
enablestatic=yes
tlsenable=yes
tlsbindaddr=YOURPUBLICIP:8089

(replace cyburdial.com with your domain)

tlscertfile=/etc/letsencrypt/live/cyburdial/fullchain.pem
tlsprivatekey=/etc/letsencrypt/live/cyburdial/privkey.pem

Install VICIDIAL from Source:
cd /usr/src
mkdir astguiclient/
cd astguiclient/
svn checkout svn://svn.eflo.net/agc_2-X/trunk
cd trunk/
MySQL setup for VICIDIAL:

Step 5 – Create Database

mysql
SET GLOBAL connect_timeout=60;
CREATE DATABASE `asterisk` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci;
CREATE USER 'cron'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '1234';
GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,LOCK TABLES on asterisk.* TO cron@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '1234';
CREATE USER 'custom'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'custom1234';
GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,LOCK TABLES on asterisk.* TO custom@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'custom1234';
GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,LOCK TABLES on asterisk.* TO cron@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '1234';
GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,LOCK TABLES on asterisk.* TO custom@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'custom1234';
GRANT RELOAD ON *.* TO cron@'%';
GRANT RELOAD ON *.* TO cron@localhost;
GRANT RELOAD ON *.* TO custom@'%';
GRANT RELOAD ON *.* TO custom@localhost;
flush privileges;
use asterisk;
\. /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk/extras/MySQL_AST_CREATE_tables.sql
\. /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk/extras/first_server_install.sql
ALTER TABLE phones ALTER template_id SET DEFAULT '';
quit

Load the initial database

cd /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk/extras
mysql -uroot -p asterisk < MySQL_AST_CREATE_tables.sql

Load First instalation setup database

mysql -uroot -p asterisk < first_server_install.sql

Load sample sip and iax phones(this contain default user pass, carefull when you installing in vpc)

mysql -uroot -p asterisk < sip-iax_phones.sql

Do back to root Directory of vicidial

cd ..
perl install.pl

Follow the setup with appropriate value.

Configiguration example

Populate ISO country codes

cd /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk/bin
perl ADMIN_area_code_populate.pl

update the Server IP with latest IP address.(VICIDIAL DEFAULT IP IS 10.10.10.15)

perl /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk/bin/ADMIN_update_server_ip.pl –old-server_ip=10.10.10.15

Say ‘Yes’ to all

Add crontab entries(Conf generation, Autodialing, Audio mix and other keepalive processes run from here.

How to – install a webphone/viciphone on your Vicidial server

UPDATED: Oct. 10th 2023

I’ve been having a bunch of people ask me to write up an article for installing the Viciphone which I never did before because Viciphone.com has some really great instructions already. But I will create this post with picture and alternative Viciphones for you guys to use. There is also an easier method by using my auto installer on my GitHub at this link: https://github.com/carpenox/vicidial-install-scripts. This will complete all the steps below for CentOS, Alma, Rocky or Ubuntu based systems. Leap or ViciBox users will still have to follow the commands below:

Step 1 – Create the SSL certificate to use for your server and viciphone

This is a pretty easy process using certbot which uses letsencrypt. the first thing you have to do is setup your FQDN(Fully qualified domain name) to point to your server. For this demonstration I will show you with namecheap.com registrar services. You want to add an A record as shown below:

This you need to run the following command for certbot:

• certbot certonly –webroot

You’re output should look as it does below:

Step 2 – Install the SSL certificate in Apache

• cd /etc/apache
• nano ssl-global.conf
• scroll down until you see these two lines and change them to point to your certificate and uncomment the SSLCertificateFIle and SSLCertificateKeyFile as show below:

• cd vhosts.d/
• nano 1111-default-ssl.conf
• Edit this file if you have installed using the Vicibox iso, if this is a scratch install you can skip this step.

Step 3 – Install the SSL certificate in Asterisk

• cd /etc/asterisk/
• nano http.conf
• enter the following information as shown below:

[general]
enabled=yes
bindaddr=0.0.0.0
bindport=8088
enablestatic=yes
tlsenable=yes
tlsbindaddr=0.0.0.0:8089
tlscertfile=/etc/letsencrypt/live/cyburdial.com/cert.pem
tlsprivatekey=/etc/letsencrypt/live/cyburdial.com/privkey.pem

• service apache restart
• service asterisk restart
• run this command to make sure the ports are now open and running: ss -ltnu

Go into Aterisk with “asterisk -r” to verify it and type the command: http show status

Step 4 – Install Viciphone 3 or you can try my version of the Viciphone which I call CyburPhone

I will provide two githubs of which you can choose which version you want to use. The first one is by Mike from Viciphone.com of whom I have the utmost respect for his work on the Viciphone to improve it and update to sip.js-0.20. His link is:

https://github.com/vicimikec/ViciPhone

To use this you need to go into your root web directory and then git cloning by running the following commands:

• cd /srv/www/htdocs for Leap or cd /var/www/html for CentOS, Alma or Rocky
• git clone https://github.com/ccabrerar/ViciPhone.git

Or if you prefer to use my version which looks like this:

You can go to my github at:

https://github.com/carpenox/CyburPhone

You should already be in the web directory at this point but to use my webrtc phone clone it with this command:

• git clone https://github.com/carpenox/CyburPhone.git

Now that you’ve downloaded the webrtc phone you’ve decided to use, you need to set the proper permissions for it, for this article I will demonstrate on my version

• chmod -R 777 CyburPhone/
• chown -R wwwrun:www CyburPhone/ – Leap
• chown -R apache:apache CyburPhone – CentOS, Alma and Rocky

You would do the same thing for the Viciphone by just replacing CyburPhone with ViciPhone

Thats it for the phone installation, now to set what you need in the Vicidial GUI

Step 4 – Setting the webphone in Vicidial

Go into Admin > system settings and scroll down near the bottom:

Set the Webphone URL to the above or if you’re using the Viciphone use https://yourdomain.com/ViciPhone/viciphone.php
or https://yourdomain.com/CyburPhone/cyburphone.php

Step 5 – Setting the Web Socket URL on the server

Go to admin > servers > your server

Step 6 – Creating the webrtc template

Go to admin > templates and create a new template

Enter the following into the template in admin > templates > SIP_generic and change the domain to yours:

type=friend 
host=dynamic 
context=default 
host=dynamic 
trustrpid=yes 
sendrpid=no 
qualify=yes 
qualifyfreq=600 
transport=ws,wss,udp
encryption=yes
avpf=yes
icesupport=yes
rtcp_mux=yes
directmedia=no
disallow=all
allow=ulaw,opus,vp8,h264
nat=force_rport,comedia
directmedia=no 
dtlsenable=yes
dtlsverify=no
dtlscertfile=/etc/letsencrypt/live/yourdomain.com/cert.pem
dtlsprivatekey=/etc/letsencrypt/live/yourdomain.com/privkey.pem
dtlssetup=actpass

Thats all there is to it, now you are all set to use webrtc technology and do away with annoying softphone configurations and reps always complaining about their phone not registering, lol. I hope this article has helped and if you have any problems, feel free to stop by our live support channel on skype or post a comment here: https://join.skype.com/ujkQ7i5lV78O

I hope this helps

How to – Scratch install the dynportal on CentOs, Rocky, or Alma Linux

This article will go over the steps to Scratch install the dynportal on a scratch CentOs, Rocky or Alma Linux Vicidial box that normally comes with the ISO. I have created the files you need and host them on one of my sites for download.

Step 1 – Download the necessary files

You will need 4 files to get this working on your server that you can download below

yum install -y firewalld
cd /home
wget https://dialer.one/dynportal.zip
wget https://dialer.one/firewall.zip
wget https://dialer.one/aggregate
wget https://dialer.one/VB-firewall

Step 2 – Move and unzip the files

You can copy and paste the following

• mkdir -p /var/www/vhosts/dynportal
• mv /home/dynportal.zip /var/www/vhosts/dynportal/
• mv /home/firewall.zip /etc/firewalld/
• cd /var/www/vhosts/dynportal/
• unzip dynportal.zip
• cd etc/httpd/conf.d/
• mv viciportal-ssl.conf viciportal.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/
• cd /etc/firewalld/
• unzip -o firewall.zip
• mv /home/aggregate /usr/bin/
• chmod +x /usr/bin/aggregate
• mv /home/VB-firewall /usr/bin/
• chmod +x /usr/bin/VB-firewall

Step 3 – Add your SSL cert to dynportal-ssl.conf and location for redirect is defaults.inc.php

You need to edit your dynportal-ssl.conf file in /etc/httpd/conf.d/

nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/viciportal-ssl.conf

change the location to your SSL cert files

nano /var/www/vhosts/dynportal/inc/defaults.inc.php

Step 4 – add entry to crontab

Add the following lines to the bottom of your crontab by typing: crontab -e

### ViciBox integrated firewall, by default just load the VoIP Black list and reload it every 4 hours
### You can lock everyone out of your server if you set this wrong, so understand what you are doing!!!
@reboot /usr/bin/VB-firewall --whitelist=ViciWhite --dynamic --quiet
* * * * * /usr/bin/VB-firewall --whitelist=ViciWhite --dynamic --quiet --flush

Step 5 – Add ports to firewall and apache

Now use firewall-cmd and open port 446 on the firewall for public zone like such:

firewall-offline-cmd --add-port=446/tcp --zone=public --permanent

And edit the apache conf file to add the port to it:

• nano /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
• Add this line: Listen 446

Step 6 – Restart services

• service firewalld restart
• service httpd restart
• systemctl enable firewalld

That’s it, now go to http://yourdomain.com:446/valid8.php and you should see the following:

Why doesn’t my webphone/Viciphone work anymore?

UPDATE: October of 2023

There is a new issue since the evolution of the ViciPhone version 3 and CyburPhone version 3.2.5 that has been happening and I will go over how to solve it for everyone. The new feature in ViciDial that uses a settings container called “viciphone settings” has a setting by default that has the webphone dial its own extension which then gets you a result of a sound file telling you that “The number you have dialed is not in service”. The solution for this is simple, just need to change one line in the settings container as described below:

1. Go into your Vicidial admin GUI
2. Click on Admin and then Settings Containers
3. Change the line that says “dialRegExten” from a 1 to a 0 as shown below

This will now fix your webphone. If you have any questions feel free to comment below or join our live support on Skype: https://join.skype.com/ujkQ7i5lV78O

2021 Issue Solution:

This article is to help those of you having problems with viciphone lately. It seems that googles stun server has reached end of life and no longer works correctly. You need to change the stun server to a different one. Here is a list of public stun servers:

Free Public STUN servers

https://gist.github.com/mondain/b0ec1cf5f60ae726202e

How do I change my STUN server for viciphone?

Good question, you need to edit your rtp.conf file for asterisk.

• cd /etc/asterisk
• nano rtp.conf
• scroll down to the very bottom and change it to one on the list above

That’s it, youre done. If you have any problems or questions feel free to comment below.

I hope this helps.

How to – Secure Vicidial, correctly. Part 1

This article will show you how to secure Vicidial server correctly. This is definitely one of the topics, that I am asked about the most, so with that being said, this will be a multipart series with different “layers” of security from the basic way you need to secure your system in todays remote world, and as advanced as encrypted passwords, recordings, two factor authentication and more.

The steps I will cover in this article, will be the steps to take once you have finished installing a fresh Vicidial server. It will cover a single server setup, not a cluster which requires some additional steps to be shown later on in this series. This article will also presume you are setting this up for remote access, not just local. Let’s get started.

Secure Vicidial

Step 1 – Setup access through YAST firewall.

At the Linux CLI, type “yast firewall” and the following screen will pop up:

Go down to “Interfaces” and select your NIC card that has WAN access and change the zone from default to public:

Then TAB over to the public zone and remove all entries but apache2-ssl and ssh, then add viciportal-ssl.

Finally, add these services to your “Trusted” zone and TAB over to [Accept] and press enter.

This completes the first step for securing your Vicidial server’s firewall access.

Step 2 – Granting access for Dynamic portal & IP whitelist access only through the VB-firewall crontab entry

The next thing you need to do is change the crontab entry from blacklist being blocked to whitelist and dynamic access only. To do so, type “crontab -e” at your Linux CLI and you should see the following:

“Page down” until you see the VB-firewall entries near the bottom and change them as you see below:

Ok, so these steps above will prepare your server for the next steps of this process which I have written in other articles already, but I will link them here for easy navigation.

Step 3 – Enabling IP Whitelist

You can follow my blog post about IP whitelist, here.

Step 4 – Setting up the dynamic portal

You can follow the article for these instructions, here.

Well, that’s it for part 1, you have now setup your system for secure remote access to your server through IP whitelist & dynamic portal only. As always, feel free to comment below with any questions or issues you have along the way. My team and I are always available to help our Vicidial community secure themselves against the threats todays world comes with such as BazarCall malware, Ryuk and Conti Ransomwares and other cyber threats that directly target the telecommunications industry. Please protect yourself accordingly, if you need help with this, please fill out the form below for a FREE security audit or if you need some technical assistance on your servers.

Well, that’s it from us here at CyburDial for today, but please stay tuned for Part 2 of this series which will cover adding in other servers for a cluster type environment and how to allow access only to certain services on each server that are needed for communication between the cluster such as MySQL.

I hope this helps.

Useful Commands to manage everyday tasks on Asterisk/Vicidial Servers

I wanted to put together a list of commands that I use often or daily that may help other people manage their days easier. If you have anything you use or think others would find useful, please comment below and I will add them with credit to you and your website or blog if you’d like. Ok so these commands will go over things for services such as Apache, MySQL, Vicidial, Asterisk, and more.

MySQL Commands and examples:

### repair a broken Database Table
repair table vicidial_live_agents use_frm;


### get level 9 users in vicidial
mysql asterisk -u cron -p1234 -e "select user,pass,active from vicidial_users where user_level='9'"

### check and repair mysql
mysqlcheck -p --auto-repair --all-databases

### show what IP's are in the Dynamic Portal IP set
use asterisk;
select computer_ip from vicidial_user_log where event = 'VICIBOX' group by computer_ip;


### reset a user whos locked out due to too many login attempts through mysql instead of GUI (Thanks Venkat from vicidial.sh)
mysql -e "use asterisk; update vicidial_users set failed_login_count='0' where user='6666'";


### How to create a user in mysql - change user(cron) and pass(1234)
CREATE USER 'cron'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '1234';
GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,LOCK TABLES on asterisk.* TO cron@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '1234';
GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,LOCK TABLES on asterisk.* TO cron@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '1234';
GRANT RELOAD ON *.* TO cron@'%';
GRANT RELOAD ON *.* TO cron@localhost;

### change root password(to delete it leave it BY '')
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

### check a user groups permissions(replace 'ADMIN' accordingly)
mysql -u cron -p1234 asterisk -e "select * from vicidial_user_groups where user_group='ADMIN'\G"

####### if leads wont load or you get "no one in your session"
nano /etc/my.cnf
Look for sql_mode and change it to sqlmode=""

Other useful commands

### watch asterisk messages thru linux cli ######
tail -f /var/log/asterisk/messages

### start up asterisk
/usr/share/astguiclient/start_asterisk_boot.pl

/usr/share/astguiclient/ADMIN_keepalive_ALL.pl --cu3way



###VOLUME FOR AST13########
With Asterisk 13, the mechanism in Asterisk that allowed for volume changes and muting of meetme participants had been causing random crashes in Asterisk. We now disable this functionality by default, but if you want to enable it, all you have to do is use the agc/options.php setting of "$ast13_volume_override = '1';"

    

####USEFUL SVN TOOLS#######


Beware of the version in system settings. To be absolutely certain to version match:

SVN is used to manage the "install directory" (/usr/src/astguiclient/trunk)

The install directory has a group of sql files that are used to upgrade from the first version to NOW (based on the svn revision level presently in THAT directory).

When your last sql upgrade file has a last line indicating that the db schema value should be what is presently shown in your System Settings ... you have a match. All your code will match your entire DB if you run install.pl with that version loaded.

Anything else is more of a "sort of" match. That's the only truly reliable method. How you get there is a matter of experience and knowledge of svn. But upgrading/downgrading that svn repository until you get lucky and it matches is the easiest amateur way to get a lock-on match of your present db schema.

start here:

CODE: 
tail /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk/extras/upgrade_2.14.sql | grep db_schema_version
mysql -u cron -p1234 asterisk -e "select * from system_settings\G" | grep schema
cd /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk
svn info | grep Revision

Compare the db schema in system settings to the db schema in the upgrade.sql file.
Note the svn revision level.
Increase or decrease the svn revision level with "svn up -r ####" and ... try again until the db schema in the sql file and system settings match. Example:

svn up -r 2946

Then run perl install.pl. Example:
CODE: SELECT ALL
cd /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk
perl install.pl --copy_sample_conf_files


Note that --copy_sample_conf_files will overwrite the .conf files presently in the system. Any that you have edited will need to be re-edited. Such as externip=xxx.xx.xx.x in sip.conf. While updating these isn't always necessary, NOT updating them has been known to blow an entire workday for simple "missed" change that's very difficult to find otherwise. Skip copy_sample_conf_files at your own risk. 8-)
