The amportal script is the recommended way to stop and start asterisk:
/usr/local/sbin/amportal stop
/usr/local/sbin/amportal start

Automatic start-up
echo /usr/local/sbin/amportal start >> /etc/rc.local

For some reason it has become necessary to change amportal.conf access restrictions around about FreePBX v2.2.x
chmod 775 /etc/amportal.conf

Edit /etc/asterisk/cdr_mysql.conf and add logunieqid=yes nano /etc/asterisk/cdr_mysql.conf
loguniqueid=yes
