Hi All! Some days ago I installed BBB + Greenlight by using the bbb-install.sh , everything went perfect, made some customizations, no issues at all. Today I had to move everything to another server, then I made a fresh install and copied some config files from the first server. Everything works fine on the new server EXCEPT the shared notes pad. It's just missing in the conference screen (see screenshot).

So far I checked /usr/share/meteor/bundle/programs/server/assets/app/config/settings.yml , and I have:
  note:
    enabled: true

If I open the URL of the pad, it exists.

bbb-conf --status shows everything up and running:

root@svp-02596:~/greenlight# bbb-conf --status

Any ideas on how to find the cause of this behavior?

When you install notes (etherpad), it creates an api an session key…  the html5 settings.yml has this key.

 

If you copy over a settings.yml from another server, it has a different key and he client cant connect.

Look in etherpad conf for api key, and add that to settings and it will work.

 

Been there, done that.   Not sure if bbb-conf can detect this..   but manually editing works.

 

Regards,

Stephen

Hi Stephen,
thanks a lot for your help! You are righ, the issue was the api key. Now it's working properly.

Hi, 

I'm having the same issue.

Could you tell me where the api key is in settings.yml?

And where is etherpad conf?
