I have been on this for many days. Please help out!

I am just like a few weeks old in Asterisk and A2billing. I got Asterisks 1.8 and A2Blling 1.9.4 installed remotely (accessible through the internet) by the help of somebody. Everything is working out fine, at least to the level that I think I have gone in depth in both application. Though overtime i have played with Trixbox, AsteriskNOW installation on Oracle virtualbox, which works perfectly within LAN. I only need to oreate extensions through FreePBX, and they perfectly connects with any device I want to use them with,
be it a softphone like x-lite or mobile SIP phones like Zoiper (android).

This is my first experience with A2billing and Asterisk online installation without freePBX. Just to try out things, I followed the video tutorials of Sysadminman, in video 4, after enabling SIP for customers I earlier created, it created perfectly but never register with any phone, always giving "registration error (404) Bad auth". I searched the forum, and read about "Realtime installation" http://forum.asterisk2billing.org/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=8877. I configured realtime according to this tutorial http://www.open-voip.org/index.php?title=Asterisk_Full_RealTime_example, yet the problem persist.
What should i do?

You need to add following Add-ons at the time of Asterisk installation. Use make menuselect to add this addons

[*] res_config_mysql

Edit following files and add all the info.

vi /etc/asterisk/res_config_mysql.conf
[general]
dbhost = 127.0.0.1
dbname = a2billing_database_name
dbuser = a2billing_database_user
dbpass = a2billing_database_password
dbport = 3306
dbsock = /tmp/mysql.sock
dbcharset = latin1
requirements=warn


vi /etc/asterisk/extconfig.conf
sipusers => mysql,general,cc_sip_buddies
sippeers => mysql,general,cc_sip_buddies
iaxusers => mysql,general,cc_iax_buddies
iaxpeers => mysql,general,cc_iax_buddies

Did you sort this problem?

If not, turn up your verbosity and past the output of a failed registration.

Before you do make sure that in your asterisk cli, a :

realtime mysql status

returns something valid like:

general connected to [email protected], port 3306 with username xxxxxxx for 5 days, 21 hours
