Disable / Enable Elstatix GUI (httpd) from your phone: Asterisk Dialplan

1. Create 2 scripts to start & stop httpd daemon.

   1. httpstop

       #!/usr/bin/php
       <?php
       $output = $ret = NULL;
       exec("/sbin/service httpd stop 2>&1", $output, $ret);
       ?>
      

   2. httpstart

       #!/usr/bin/php
       <?php
       $output = $ret = NULL;
       exec("/sbin/service httpd start 2>&1", $output, $ret);
       ?>
      

2. Make them executable (chmod +x) and copy to /usr/share/elastix/privileged

3. Edit the file /etc/asterisk/extensions_custom.conf and add the lines under context [from-internal-custom].

    [from-internal-custom]
    exten => 120,1,Playback(posix-restarting) ; "Stop HTTP Server"
    exten => 120,2,Wait(1)
    exten => 120,3,System(sudo /usr/sbin/elastix-helper httpstop)
    exten => 120,4,Playback(disabled)
    exten => 120,5,Hangup
       
    exten => 121,1,Playback(posix-restarting) ; "Start HTTP server"
    exten => 121,2,Wait(1)
    exten => 121,3,System(sudo /usr/sbin/elastix-helper httpstart)
    exten => 121,4,Playback(enabled)
    exten => 121,5,Hangup
   

   I used the number 120 to stop the web server & 121 to start it.

4. Reload asterisk and dial 120 & 121 to test.
5. If you want to dial it from outside add above numbers in “Misc Destination” menu and then select them from IVR menu.
