Hi,

Yesterday we are started installing of Bigbluebutton on Dedicated Server, Everything is fine, but during installation i am facing some problems..but configuration is same like as mentioned in BBB website, OS: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 64 bit and 8GB RAM

** Potential problems described below **
# Nginx: BigBlueButton appears to be disabled
         - no symbolic link in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/bigbluebutton to /etc/nginx/sites-available/bigbluebutton
# IP does not match:
#                           IP from ifconfig: 115.124.120.11
#   /etc/nginx/sites-available/bigbluebutton: 115.124.120.142
# Warning: API URL IPs do not match host:
#
#                                IP from ifconfig: 115.124.120.11
#  /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/demo/bbb_api_conf.jsp: 115.124.120.142

# Warning: No ffmpeg version was found on the system
#          Recording processing will not function


Actually in my hosting account they are provided Two ip's, initially i have installed BBB with 115.124.120.11 ip, but i faced some issues, because in same server Plesk panel installed for our domain control, of course still we have not installed any domain on this server but plesk panel is installed. so i have changed ip address using bbb-conf --setip command, now i faced the above p[potential problems, and also i am unable to install ffmpeg in ubuntu server. 

Please help me anybody, Thanks in Advance

Thanks & Regards,
G.Madhukar

Hi Madhukar,

Plesk panel installed for our domain control, of course still we have not installed any domain on this server but plesk panel is installed.

Plesk installs a lot of components, some of which conflict with the BigBlueButton installation.  You can try uninstalling Plesk, but it's really easier to start with a clean server.  

You will have a *much* easier time if your hosting provider can give you a clean Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit server *without* any applications installed. 

Also, if you get an error during the installation, don't skip over that step and continue.  Google for the error first, and check out the troubleshooting section as well


If your stuck on a step, please post here and we'll help.


Regards,... Fred

Hi Madhukar,

It looks like you have the packaged version of ffmpeg installed.  You need to uninstall it first

 sudo apt-get purge ffmpeg

Then install the version as per the instructions,

Can you post the output of 

  ls /usr/local/src/

and remove any libvpx or ffmpeg directory, then try running the install script for ffmpeg again.
