Update on MySQL + ASTPP + Freeswitch Installation
Before building and installing Freeswitch, please be sure to install MySQL, unixODBC and their drivers.
However improbable this sounds, the fact is that in CentOs entering “yum install unixODBC” and "yum install unixODBC-devel" commands on the command line may not install all you need for interconnection of MySQL with unixODBC.
Hence, be sure you resolve any interconnectivity issues between MySQL and unixODBC as Freeswitch would seek out unixODBC so as to make provisions and incorporate it for use while building.
Since all servers would not be configured by one method, Please see these resources for assistance as per your scenario:

Make time to visit with #astpp channel on the irc freenode network.

Is it possibly the UnixODBC-dev packages?
Just curious if you might need the unixODBC-devel package installed?

Re: Is it possibly the UnixODBC-devel packages ?
Mc,
My advice on packages has always been to install all related packages that do not create conflicts.
Yes, you should install it. Please take your time and install all relevant packages that is related to unixODBC as you'll need to be 110% sure it connects to mysql.
As a rule, Install all you could find till you "isql (database name)" and get a confirmation that you are connected. Test the "SQL>" prompt with some sql commands, then quit.
