misbehaving and causing Asterisk to crash continuously.

Asterisk died with code 1.
Automatically restarting Asterisk

need to run the following commands
#killall -9 safe_asterisk
#killall -9 asterisk
2. Then start asterisk with -c parameter
#asterisk -cvvvv
3. Pay attention to the messages displayed by Asterisk console. Just before the
segmentation fault message appears. you should see an error generated by one or
more of the modules.

and configure Asterisk to no load it
