Re: [SR-Users] [SOLVED] "kamdbctl create" failed

Hi, I followed the instructions at https://www.kamailio.org/wiki/packages/debs for getting kamailio50 on Ubuntu Trusty, and it successfully got me that version on Trisquel 7.

Then, after dropping the earlier Kamailio version's MySQL database, running sudo kamdbctl create worked without a problem. Now, time for me to see what Kamailio can do for me!
