Well this is the first this has happened to me on a pi install.

I had replaced a router and needed to restart my node. I used shutdown -r now command and now asterisks will not start.

I get:

Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk.ctl exist?)
root@repeater:/home/repeater#

So if I execute with asterisk -vvvvvvc I get this output. See attached file.

Can someone advise what might be happening before I give up and reimage this node?

Thanks.
