Flexisip is a SIP server developed by Linphone, which supports advanced features like distributed architecture, load balancing, and multiple backend databases. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Flexisip on EndeavourOS.
Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
Flexisip requires several dependencies to be installed on your EndeavourOS system. You can install them by running the following commands:
sudo pacman -Syu
sudo pacman -S gcc make clang cmake git boost fmt rapidxml mariadb mariadb-clients mariadb-libs mariadb-connector-c
Next, clone the Flexisip repository from the Linphone Github page using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/BelledonneCommunications/flexisip.git
Once you have cloned the repository, use the following commands to build and install Flexisip:
cd flexisip
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
This will compile and install Flexisip on your EndeavourOS system.
After successfully installing Flexisip, you need to configure it for your needs. The configuration file is located in the /usr/local/etc/flexisip directory. Copy the sample configuration file to this directory and edit it according to your needs:
sudo cp ../docs/sample_config/* /usr/local/etc/flexisip/
sudo nano /usr/local/etc/flexisip/flexisip.conf.xml
Note that you can also download a pre-configured flexisip.conf.xml file from the Linphone website and use it.
Finally, start the Flexisip service and test it by registering a SIP client to it:
flexisipctl start
You can check the status of the service using the following command:
flexisipctl status
If everything is working correctly, you should see a message indicating that the service is running. From here, you can configure and use Flexisip according to your needs.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Flexisip on your EndeavourOS system. We hope this guide has been helpful, and you are now familiar with the installation process for Flexisip.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
