Hi,

I was able to install the certificates necessary to get my server validated with SSL a certificate.  I tested the SSL configuration with the following, https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ and everything tested out perfectly.  When I entered a demo session room that I had created and had working when the server was configured for HTTP, now with HHPS configured it does not open.  It gives me an error with a status code of 500.  Trying to get this up and running by this evening for a session with 18 participates.

Please advise?  Thanks you. 
Paul

Hi Paul,

Are you using the latest version of BigBlueButton (1.0)?  If not, recommend you upgrade and double-check the steps.  

Let us know what version you are running.

Regards,... Fred

I used the command: bbb-conf --clean and everything worked.  Can you tell why this one?

Can you please confirm that bbb-conf --clean fixed your issue?

Hi fred,

The error came back after I restarted the server: the following is my --clean, --check, --debug outputs.  Please advise.

Hi Paul,

This is the issue

# Not Running:  redis-server

The redis server is the message passing hub for many of the components in BigBlueButton.  If it's not running, BigBlueButton will not run as well.

Try the following

   sudo service redis-server restart

and do 

  sudo bbb-conf --check

If you still see issues with the redis server, try the following

  sudo service redis-server stop
  sudo mv /var/lib/redis/redis.rdb /var/lib/redis/redis.rdb_old
  sudo service redis-server start

The older versions of BigBlueButton didn't expire the redis database and it may have gotten quite large.


Regards,.. Fred

Thanks You Fred,

The following did the trick. It's working now!:  sudo service redis-server restart

Thanks again!

Fred,

Would you know how I can hard code the PEM pass phrase, so BBB is immediately accessible after a reboot of the my server.

Thanks,
Paul

Hi Fred,

Would you also know how I can write protect my index.html file and default.pdf so they are not updated on my BBB Server when I issue the following commands:

$ sudo apt-get-update
$ sudo apt-get-dist-upgrade

The easiest solution is to have a script that swaps your preferred files and/or configuration settings and then run it after a package upgrade.

Thanks Chad,

I haven't had time to try your suggestion, but I think it will work out fine.  Thanks!
