[App_rpt-users] Registration issues

[Tim Sawyer]

Corey,

Your wget command puts the Allstar node list file in a temporary staging area/name. So it won’t actually update your node list immediately, if at all. The actual nodes list lives at /var/lib/asterisk/rpt_extnodes.

Normally the script rc.updatesnodelist will always be running (ps aux | grep updatenodelist) so it shouldn’t be necessary to use the script below. But for troubleshooting it may be useful. 

Here is a modified version of rc.updatesnodelist. Put this in a file, mark it executable and run it. 

#! /bin/sh

TOPDOMAIN=allstarlink.org
SUBDOMAINS="nodes1 nodes2 nodes3"
FILEPATH=/var/lib/asterisk
WGET=`which wget` 

for i in $SUBDOMAINS; do
    res=0
    while [ $res -eq 0 ]; do
        $WGET -O $FILEPATH/rpt_extnodes-temp http://$i.$TOPDOMAIN/cgi-bin/nodes.pl
        res=$?
        if [ $res -eq 0 ]; then
            /bin/chmod 700 $FILEPATH/rpt_extnodes-temp
            /bin/mv -f $FILEPATH/rpt_extnodes-temp $FILEPATH/rpt_extnodes
            echo "Retrieved node list from $i.$TOPDOMAIN"
            date
            #sleep 600
            exit 0
        else
            echo "Problem retrieving node list from $i.$TOPDOMAIN, trying another server";
            sleep 30
        fi
    done
done


Or you could just issue the following wget command. Note the host is nodes1 where the above script will try nodes1, nodes2 and nodes3.
/usr/bin/wget -O /var/lib/asterisk/rpt_extnodes http://nodes1.allstarlink.org/cgi-bin/nodes.pl
