Restart Asterisk and install FreePBX.
./start_asterisk start ./install_amp --webroot /var/www amportal a ma installall amportal a reload

./install_amp --username=asteriskuser --password=$ASTERISK_DB_PW --webroot /var/www
Finally, one last mod and start FreePBX.
ln -s /var/lib/asterisk/moh /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 amportal start
Start FreePBX
Navigate:
http://yourlocalipaddress/html or if you prefer http://localhost/admin
After you enable and update the modules in FreePBX You might see the following error.
Symlink from modules failed
To correct this error do the following:
Delete the list of failed files
cd /etc/asterisk
rm ccss.conf confbridge.conf features.conf sip.conf iax.conf logger.conf extensions.conf sip_notify.conf
Then on the FreePBX webUI go to the ‘Module Admin’ and uninstall and reinstall the ‘Camp On’ module. This should resolve the Symlink issue.
