Desktop Sharing question..

[Hugo]

Does Destop Sharing works on linux? When I start is on my laptop
running debian lenny / firefox ... it open a small windows and stays
like that with the bigbluebuttn logo...

i can see that the browser is doing some request...but stays like that
forever....

On the video tutorials...I've seen that some kind of applet or
something like that (don't remember now) but I remember that
demonstation was on a windows os...


Thanks in advance..

Yes - it works on Linux, but requires Java to be enabled.  I've seen where it occasionally won't start if Java isn't set up right, and there's not very good feedback.  We should try to give better user messaging for that.

hummm

Java Web Start or something like that?

What do you mean with java not setup right? What is the special setup
that I've to do?

Thanks

[Jeremy Thomerson]

Your browser has to be setup to run java applets.

[Richard Alam]

There shouldn't be any special setup needed.

However, as Jeremy said, if something goes wrong with the applet,
there is no way yet to inform the user that something went wrong.
Except for the user to take a look at the java console.

I'm looking into how to inform the user about problems with the
applet. It involves Java->JavaScript->Actionscript calls but the
Java->JS calls has been supported just on Java 1.6 update 10. I'll be
working on this in the next iterations.

Hi Hugo,

Are you running on trunk?

I'm fixing problems with desktop sharing now, so it would be great if
you are on trunk so you can help test.

Richard

[Hugo Flambó]

yes...but if I go to for example sun webpage and I can see the applets...

So i guess that's not the problem... or bigbluebutton is some "special
applet?" :)

I don't see nothing on log files... any sugestion?

BR Hugo

[Hugo Flambó]

Yes... Only Web/flex interface I'm not...

I guess I can try it on 1/2 h .. I've to go 4 food now...starving :)
I'll post my experience as soon as posible

[Hugo Flambó]

It's okay this way..or should I build too the flex part... any change
on server method calls from flex?

[Richard Alam]

Making changes to the client to fix some deskshare issues.

Please follow the link below on how to setup dev environment for the client.

[Richard Alam]

Ooops sorry... :)

Or, you could just do

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

[Hugo]

yes...I've done that ;)

I'm on it...getting mem Perm issues compiling AutotestModule.swf ...
changed JAVA_OPTS and I'll try again...
Only deployment of client is required..or I've to deploy too red5
application and bibibluebutton.war?

[Hugo]

I've increesed jvm flag -XX:MaxPermSize=512m

but still not working...

[Richard Alam]

how are you building the client? Using FlexBuilder or command line?

[Hugo]

command line

[Hugo Flambó]

I'll try a shutdown to see if I got more mem available for compile..

[Hugo Flambó]

No way...I can not compile last component... I've done it before
...don't know what's happening...
same error with PermGen space

[Hugo Flambó]

What do you thing if I overwrite new generated swf files on old ones
and AS3...AutotestModule will load them anyout or there are changes
there too?

[Richard Alam]

Try commenting out AutoTestMOdule in your build.xml and see if that works.

[Hugo Flambó]

yes it does..

[Richard Alam]

Comment it for now. You also need to comment out the module in your config.xml

[Hugo Flambó]

yes...and make changes on config.xml to my environment...

Strange but I think SVN config file is bad....

If you look to my new config.xml that have been installed on
/var/www/bigbluebutton/client/conf/config.xml

al uri="rtmp:///" ---> 3 /// mmmm...not good!:)

[Richard Alam]

You have to run bbb-setip -h <your-ip> to insert your host into config.xml

Richard

[Hugo Flambó]

mmm I've change manually for now... I'll try to find that file later...

I can not enter on interface... after login ...I see all modules
loading but after load video module stays there forever...
I'm checking log file... nginx is ok... all 200 as Http codes and one
304 for config.xml...I think here all is correct...
bigbluebutton.war ...all as before... I've an error:

INFO: Deploying web application archive bigbluebutton.war
Unable to load specified config location
file:/etc/default/bigbluebutton : /etc/default/bigbluebutton (No such
file or directory)log4j:ERROR setFile(null,true) call failed.
java.io.FileNotFoundException: stacktrace.log (Permission denied)
at java.io.FileOutputStream.openAppend(Native Method)


(but I've this one before... only don't know where to change this...
where to change /etc/default/bigbluebutton ??? for this log file)


Red5.. any error too... on any application... but flex interface stays like:

screenshot

:((((

any idea?

[Richard Alam]

Can you make sure that nginx is getting the right directories for the client?

See /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/bigbluebutton if it's pointing to your
dev client-folder.

Richard

[Hugo Flambó]

yes it is...

I've run as a root ...bigbluebutton-client/build.sh

it compiles..and deploy compiled client to: /var/www/bigbluebutton
(this is the /client context on nginx)
And so...it overwritted old bigbluebutton-client and so
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/bigbluebutton is pointing to the correct
directory...
I've clean up browser cache...it still do the same... I'll try with
old client to see if it runs again...

I'll let you know...

[Hugo Flambó]

Yes...I've reverted to my old client version... and now it loads
again... don't know what is happening with trunk version...flex is
not my strong...don't know how to trace it... anyway to see what is
happening?
