Question

I already installed asteriskNow 2.0 ISO, thus after system installation, i’ve already have built-in asterisk within CentOS. I do not need to download source package and compile the source files. But right now, i have an situation that requires to recompile asterisk again.

I checked it out the installation tutorial which needs to go to the asterisk source directory to execute following commands:

# make clean
# ./configure
# make menuselect
# make install
# make samples   

My questions : Is it the asterisk source directory means the directory which has asterisk installation files? But in my case, i do not download and compile the asterisk source ever.What should i do?

I asked myself: It needs to download source from and execute the following commands:

wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/asterisk-1.8.17.0.tar.gz
tar xzf asterisk-1.8.17.0.tar.gz
cd asterisk-1.8.17.0
./configure
make
make install
