Stephen,
I recently built a Debian 64 bit Server using the “Installing OM2.x On Debian64 - Headless.pdf <https://cwiki.apache.org/OPENMEETINGS/tutorials-related-to-openmeetings.data/Installing%20OM2.x%20On%20Debian64%20-%20Headless.pdf> (Debian Squeeze) - Updated 29/7/2012” instructions. Are there more recent Debian instructions that I should have been using ? https://cwiki.apache.org/OPENMEETINGS/tutorials-related-to-openmeetings.html I had difficulty copy text from the PDF, not sure why. I had no issues copying text from previously saved PDFs. I also found some things that might be missing (or I could have missed them), and a few things have changed (and of course will keep changing). Debian Multimedia has changed its address deb http://deb-multimedia.org squeeze main I had to add the Debian Multimedia Keyring (and the web site address has changed from what I last had) Now we add the key ring, and the reload the catalogue # apt-get install deb-multimedia-keyring # apt-get update I am not quite sure where to get the OpenMeetings 2.1.1 version from, but I used this url (the source is on the same page); wget https://builds.apache.org/job/Openmeetings%202.1/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/2.1/dist/apache-openmeetings-2.1.1.r1487794-30-05-2013_0922.tar.gz I found that this “svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openmeetings/trunk/singlewebapp/” returned the 3.0.0 version. # svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/openmeetings/trunk/singlewebapp/ svn: Repository moved permanently to 'https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openmeetings/trunk/singlewebapp'; please relocate # svn checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openmeetings/trunk/singlewebapp/ I had to locate and add a mysql-converter from http://www.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/ tar -zxvf mysql-connector-java-5.1.25.tar.gz cp /usr/adm/mysql-connector-java-5.1.25/mysql-connector-java-5.1.25-bin.jar /usr/lib/red5/webapps/openmeetings/WEB-INF/lib/ I was not sure which ANT version to use 1.8.4 or 1.9.1, however I used 1.9.1 and it worked very well. I had trouble finding an repository which still had 1.8.4 but was able to locate a site that did have it. # wget http://mirror.overthewire.com.au/pub/apache//ant/binaries/apache-ant-1.9.1-bin.tar.gz http://mirror.mel.bkb.net.au/pub/apache//ant/binaries/apache-ant-1.9.1-bin.tar.gz <http://mirror.mel.bkb.net.au/pub/apache/ant/binaries/apache-ant-1.9.1-bin.tar.gz> http://archive.apache.org/dist/ant/binaries/ http://archive.apache.org/dist/ant/binaries/apache-ant-1.8.4-bin.tar.gz /usr/adm/om/singlewebapp# /usr/adm/apache-ant-1.9.1/bin/ant -Ddb=mysql dist: BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 26 minutes 18 seconds I think that about sums up the few points that could be updated. I usually change port 5080 to 80 and forgot that if you do this you have to run the red5 script under a root user, not as nobody, which caused me a bit of frustration until I recalled needing to update the /etc/init.d/red5 script to use root instead of nobody. Thanks, George Kirkham
