[Opensim-users] freeswitch problems (talk button)

The problem I am having now was reported by before (by you, I think). 
When the opensim
instance has started, and I start Freeswitch, I get:

2010-02-06 13:17:46.157808 [ERR] mod_xml_curl.c:304 Received HTTP error 
404 trying to fetch http://theIPaddress:9000/api/freeswitch-config


I am not really sure of the mechanism by which one can use HTTP to 
opensim (as opposed to
Apache), but freeswitch seems unable to get file "freeswitch-config". 
Freeswitch is enabled in
OpenSim and the http_listener_port is 9000 (default).

have tried this on 0.6.8 (stable) as well as trunk.
