Public bug reported: In /etc/init.d/asterisk, the $PIDFILE directory is not properly created, leaving it with incorrect permissions, and/or not creating it at all.
also asterisk.ctl cannot be created properly without without this patched file. I have patched the file so that the directory is created properly. This new version also contains the fix to bug #47813. I believe the fix is additionally required to the patch in #45952 though to be honest, not certain. ** Affects: asterisk (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- /etc/init.d/asterisk cannot start because of permissions https://launchpad.net/bugs/57572 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
