After installing a new box and asterisk. i have got these errors

[root@localhost ~]# asterisk

Unable to open pid file '/var/run/asterisk/asterisk.pid': No such file or directory

[root@localhost ~]# asterisk -vr

I didn't find a folder called asterisk in the directory /var/run

then post the output of 'service asterisk status'
