Note

If you aren't going to work in --dev-links mode (meaning you would like a standard install of FreePBX 12) then do NOT follow the rest of this guide, failure to not adhere to these warning will only cause headaches for you, especially if you don't understand how FreePBX functions internally, instead run

Code Block
mkdir /usr/src/freepbx
cd /usr/src/freepbx
git clone ssh://git@git.freepbx.org/freepbx/framework.git
cd framework
git checkout release/13.0
./install_amp --installdb
Note

If you are on the FreePBX 7 Distro you can setup a development environment in less than 10 minutes. Check it out: Here

GIT

FreePBX uses GIT, an open source version control system. If you are unfamiliar with GIT, you can learn more about it at http://git-scm.com/ . If you are already familiar with Subversion, you may be interested in checking out http://git.or.cz/course/svn.html for a brief crash course based on your Subversion knowledge. Because GIT is based on a distributed system there is no 'one' central server as there was with SVN. However we consider our master server to be http://git.freepbx.org which mirrors to github at https://github.com/freepbx

This parameter sets up symlinks throughout all of FreePBX and renders online module updates unreliable, at best! You should never do this on a production machine as it can easily cause significant and unexpected problems.

Receiving an Error?

 

Code Block
PHP Fatal error:  Cannot redeclare composerRequire29de5ac29f36fb522a59e5e3da081c0a() (previously declared in /usr/src/freepbx/framework/amp_conf/htdocs/admin/libraries/Composer/vendor/composer/autoload_real.php:63) in /var/www/html/admin/libraries/Composer/vendor/composer/autoload_real.php on line 70

This is caused because you have an existing installation of FreePBX and our installer will not override a real file with a symlink. To fix it we should, perform the following after backing up any changes you in /var/www/html:
