Hi

There are few questions around recording

1. even bbb-record --list shows 1 recording (below is full output),  greenlight showing "You currently have no recordings."
2. On server where is the final recordings stored? 

#bbb-record --list

It takes some time to process the recording, So wait for some time and check again. All published recordings are available at  /var/bigbluebutton/published/presentation

To check if the meeting is recorded or not you can use bbb-admin

Hi Arun

You can see the status of recording at /var/bigbluebutton/recording/status if you see <recod-Id>.done file in the respective folder that means the recording has passed that stage.  
And the logs will be available at /var/log/bigbluebutton
