Funny,

I went looking at my install. I don't use the asl-menu, but it is not installed on my Pi.

So, I went to the PC and took a look at the asl-menu shell script.

5 is the menu item for ast cmd line

do_asl_cli() {
echo "do_asl_cli" >> $logfile
clear
$ASTERISK -rvvv        <--------------------------------
}

This needs to be changed to lower case.

$asterisk -rvvv
