Hi,

I followed the following link and installed a BBB 071a VM on my PC.
http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/wiki/BigBlueButtonVM

After install, the bbb-conf -c output is as below: (I disable the
security salt to easy access BBB from URL)
====================================================================
BigBlueButton Server 0.71a
Kernel version: 2.6.32-33-generic-pae
Distribution: Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS (32-bit)
Memory: 1002 MB

/var/www/bigbluebutton/client/conf/config.xml
Port test (tunnel): 192.168.1.102
Red5: 192.168.1.102

/etc/nginx/sites-available/bigbluebutton
server name: 192.168.1.102
port: 80
bbb-client dir: /var/www/bigbluebutton

/var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/bigbluebutton/WEB-INF/classes/
bigbluebutton.properties (bbb-web)
bbb-web host: 192.168.1.102

/var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/bigbluebutton/demo/bbb_api_conf.jsp (API
demos)
bbb-web-api host: 192.168.1.102

/usr/share/red5/webapps/bigbluebutton/WEB-INF/red5-web.xml
voice conference: FreeSWITCH


** Potential problems described below **
# The following properties in /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/bigbluebutton/
WEB-INF/classes/bigbluebutton.properties has no value.
# beans.dynamicConferenceService.securitySalt
================================================================

Everything works fine except no sound and the Listener list is always
empty. Restart BBB does not solve the issue. Then I found it seems the
FreeSwitch is not installed at all because there is even not "/opt/
freeswitch/" folder. I guess it's skipped during the BBB initial
install maybe due to the networking error, because the manual command
"git clone git://git.freeswitch.org/freeswitch.git" also failed with
"The remote end hung up unexpectedly". I'm not sure whether it's
because the web is blocked by the local ISP.

Then I manually downloaded a freeswitch 1.0.6 as below.
===================================
wget http://files.freeswitch.org/freeswitch-1.0.6.tar.gz
tar xvfz freeswitch-1.0.6.tar.gz
cd /usr/local/src/freeswitch
./configure
make && make install
make all cd-sounds-install cd-moh-install
========================================

I also used the following steps to setup the freeswitch.
=================================================
If voice isn't working in the BBB interface or your listeners are not
showing up the most likely reason is that FreeSWITCH and Red5 are not
communicating properly. Check the configuration files and make sure
that FreeSWITCH and Red5 are pointing at each other. Edit /opt/
freeswitch/conf/autoload_configs/event_socket.conf.xml.

vi /opt/freeswitch/conf/autoload_configs/event_socket.conf.xml

Check the listen-ip parameter

<param name="listen-ip" value="192.168.1.102"/>

Edit /usr/share/red5/webapps/bigbluebutton/WEB-INF/
bigbluebutton.properties Set esl.host to your IP

esl.host=192.168.1.102

Lastly, make sure that the sip.server.host property in /usr/share/red5/
webapps/sip/WEB-INF/bigbluebutton-sip.properties is set to your
FreeSWITCH server.

vi /usr/share/red5/webapps/sip/WEB-INF/bigbluebutton-sip.properties

Edit the host address to match you own.

sip.server.host=192.168.1.102
====================================================

But it still doesn't work. Anyone knows the reason? Anything else I
need to check or config?

Thank you very much. Any earliest reply will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Jerry

Jerry, when you downloaded the source and compiled, it puts in
another directory than /opt/freeswitch, and you dont get the config
files that are customized for BBB.

I notice you only have 1G of ram in VM so thats tight.... You can
get the freewitch packaging with apt-get commands in wiki and make
sure the ESL username and password are correct.

remove compiled freeswich and

To install FreeSWITCH:

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:freeswitch-drivers/freeswitch-nightly-
drivers
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bbb-freeswitch-config

Also, run ./fs_cli from command line and see what happens when you
click in on mic button, will tell you if its a dialplan issues.

Stephen

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for your reply.

The output of "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:freeswitch-drivers/
freeswitch-nightly-drivers " is as below

Then "sudo apt-get update " failed with below,

======================================

Is there anything I can do now?

BTW, I re-installed BigBlueButton 071a vm again. After BBB is
initialized, I found the Freeswitch is installed this time under /opt/
freeswtich. But the listener list is also empty.

Then I found in http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/issues/detail?id=639
and http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/issues/detail?id=739 , Alex
said,
=================================
BBB 0.71 workfin only with one specific FreeSWITCH version:
http://ppa.launchpad.net/freeswitch-drivers/freeswitch-nightly-drivers/ubuntu/pool/main/f/freeswitch/freeswitch_1.0.6-0ubuntu10-10-15-11-24PST.1~lucid.tar.gz
======================================

So I uninstalled the freeswitch and downloaded
freeswitch_1.0.6-0ubuntu10-10-15-11-24PST.1~lucid.tar.gz. But I don't
know how to install this version of freeswitch. After untar the tar.gz
file, there are no configure, Makefile.in etc files in the folder. I'm
not familiar with autoconf/automake. Do you know how to install this
version of freeswitch? Thanks.

Regards,
Jerry

Hi Jerry,

With BigBlueButton 0.8-beta we packaged our own version of FreeSWITCH,
so you don't need to download it separately. You can try upgrading
your BigBlueButton installation to 0.8-beta following these
instructions

http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/wiki/08InstallationUbuntu#Upgrading_a_BigBlueButton_0.71a_Server

Your running a VM, so if your setup gets too messed up, you can always
unzip the original VM file and start over.

We'll also be releasing a VM for BigBlueButton 0.8-beta shortly.

Regards,... Fred

Must give a +1 to the 0.71a FreeSwitch (new last couple of days)
problems:
After 123 of BBB working fine (installed as Wiki page states), i
updated the machine with the usual software patches ( apt-get update
&& apt-get upgrade ), and Listeners window became empty.
I tried "bbb-conf --clean" with no luck "bbb-conf --restart", "bbb-
conf --start / "bbb-conf --stop"... no luck.
I restarted the whole machine, and same problem, listeners window
empty. After that, with a "bbb-conf --stop / wait 10 minutes / bbb-
conf --start" i managed to get it working again, a bit slower and with
FreeSwitch eating resources like hell.
Previously FS eated around 20% of CPU with up to 30 concurrent users,
now it is at 40% with just 7 users, and listeners window requires at
least 2-3 stop/wait/start tries for it to start.
I dind't touch a single bit of conf from the day i installed BBB, no
new software on the machine, no edits, apart from the update /
upgrade.
I saved an screenshot of the updated packages, just in case it helps.

Thanks Marcos for your reply.

I tried the whole afternoon to start/stop bbb and still no luck. The
listeners list is always empty. :(

Do you think it is because my PC is too slow? I increased the BBB VM
memory to 2.5G. No luck too.

BTW, I cannot open the link below. can you send it through attachment?
Thanks.

Tail the log in /usr/share/red5/log/bigbluebutton.log while you
restart Red5. See if it fails to connect to port 8021 of FreeSWITCH.
That's the port we listen to for events from FS.

It can be just a startup sequence issue where Red5 started before FS
but there's logic already in the startup scripts to handle that.

Hi Richard,

The log as below shows the failure to connect to 8021 of FS. It looks
like we find the root cause finally.

But how could I make sure the FS is started before Red5?

Thank you very much for your help.

Regards,
Jerry

Hi Richard,

I update the /etc/init.d/red5 as mentioned in the link below.

==========================================

But the Listeners list is still empty. Any suggestion?

Fixed in 0.8-beta. See

http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/issues/detail?id=1024

included instructions for applying the fix to 0.71a.

Fix working fine in my 0.71a Fred, thanks a lot !

The Freeswitch keeps eating around 50% more CPU than before the
update... i suppose is something related to FS+Java libraries, maybe
it will fix itself with the own-included FS of BBB 0.8-final ?

Hi Marcos,

Just to calibrate expectations, you can expect FreeSWITCH to require
more CPU in 0.8-beta to process audio. For details see

Updated to 0.8 beta, the Listener shows in the list now.

That's great!

Thank you all very much!

(Not update and verify the fix in 0.71a yet.)

Regards,
Jerry
