Error in Installation of ffmpeg (Couldn't find package zlib1g-dev)

[Upen]

Hello Everybody,

  I am in step 4. Install ffmpeg

 i created a file called install-ffmpeg.sh and copy and paste in the following script.

sudo apt-get install build-essential git-core checkinstall yasm texi2html libvorbis-dev libx11-dev libxfixes-dev zlib1g-dev

LIBVPX_VERSION=1.2.0
FFMPEG_VERSION=0.11.3

if [ ! -d "/usr/local/src/libvpx-${LIBVPX_VERSION}" ]; then
  cd /usr/local/src
  sudo git clone http://git.chromium.org/webm/libvpx.git "libvpx-${LIBVPX_VERSION}"
  cd "libvpx-${LIBVPX_VERSION}"
  sudo git checkout "v${LIBVPX_VERSION}"
  sudo ./configure
  sudo make
  sudo checkinstall --pkgname=libvpx --pkgversion="${LIBVPX_VERSION}" --backup=no --deldoc=yes --default
fi

if [ ! -d "/usr/local/src/ffmpeg-${FFMPEG_VERSION}" ]; then
  cd /usr/local/src
  sudo wget "http://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-${FFMPEG_VERSION}.tar.bz2"
  sudo tar -xjf "ffmpeg-${FFMPEG_VERSION}.tar.bz2"
  cd "ffmpeg-${FFMPEG_VERSION}"
  sudo ./configure --enable-version3 --enable-postproc --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx
  sudo make
  sudo checkinstall --pkgname=ffmpeg --pkgversion="5:${FFMPEG_VERSION}" --backup=no --deldoc=yes --default
fi

Next, running the commands
chmod +x install-ffmpeg.sh
./install-ffmpeg.sh

And Found the following error

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Couldn't find package zlib1g-dev
: command not found: line 2:
: command not found: line 5:
./install-ffmpeg.sh: line 24: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
./install-ffmpeg.sh: line 24: `fi'

Now, what to do? should i proceed to next step Install BigBlueButton. Or please help me to out of this.

Thanks & Regards

Upen

Can you double-check that you didn't inadvertently insert any new lines in the script when you cut-and-pasted it.

In particular, check line 23 (just before the list 'fi') -- it should be one continuous line.

Hello Fred ,

   Thanks for your reply, I pasted line 23 as

 sudo checkinstall --pkgname=ffmpeg --pkgversion="5:${FFMPEG_VERSION}" --backup=no --deldoc=yes --default

and it is a single line. You can check the screenshot as below.

[Fred Dixon]

Can you post the output of

  cat /etc/lsb-release

and

  sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev

Regards,... Fred

Hi Upen,

Can you share with others what was preventing your setup from installation BigBlueButton.

Hello Fred,

It is a great job you and developers do with bbb, definitively an amazing project.
I am trying to set up a bbb on a VPS server with Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit, everything did well until I came to the error about pkg-config. Any suggestion?
Please help.

Hi Giuseppe,

It's very likely a cut-and-paste error.  Check the install-ffmpeg.sh file with an editor (such as vi) and ensure there are no unexpected line breaks.  

If you've not used a Unix editor before (such as vi), suggest using Google to find a quick tutorial.  It's not hard, and you'll very quickly see any errors in the file.

Regards,.. Fred

Hello Fred,

I am familiar with vi. What I am doing is:
- select the script and doing ctrl-c in the google chrome browser
- paste with shift-ctrl-v in vi editor.  I see that line 2 and 5 have indeed a break.
- escape end :w in order to save the file
- finally :q to exit.

But the error continue to show

Is there some location I can download the file as is?

Thank you,

Giuseppe

Hi Giuseppe,

You may be cutting and pasting in carriage returns.

Can you post to output of

 cat ffmpeg-install.sh | od -c | head

Hi Fred,

This is the output.
root@cl-t025-453cl:/home/sshadmin/home#  cat ffmpeg-install.sh | od -c | head
cat: ffmpeg-install.sh: No such file or directory
0000000

BTW I eliminated the 2 lines that were indeed line breaks with vi as you suggested.

Now when I execute the install comand, this is the output
root@cl-t025-453cl:/home/sshadmin/home# sudo ./install-ffmpeg.sh

Hello Fred,

I believe you are asking for cat install-ffmpeg.sh.

Follow the output.

Hello Fred,

Sorry the amount of post.

Ok I was able to execute the script.  I execute the command "fromdos"  and get the .sh file fixed.

Now there is something strange. ffmpeg was apparently well installed but look....

root@cl-t025-453cl:/usr/local/src# ffmpeg -version
-bash: /usr/bin/ffmpeg: No such file or directory

How I know that ffmpeg was installed? Because the following:
**********************************************************************
 Done. The new package has been installed and saved to
 
/usr/local/src/ffmpeg-2.0.1/ffmpeg_5:2.0.1-1_amd64.deb

 You can remove it from your system anytime using:

      dpkg -r ffmpeg

**********************************************************************

Did I miss something?

Thank you again,

Giuseppe
 

[Giuseppe Nocera]

Sorry Fred never mind.

I have rebooted the server and "Ta da!!!"

BBB installed, let's do some tests.

Thank you for your pacience.

Best Regards,
Giuseppe

[Fred Dixon]

Yay!

Regards,... Fred
