Hi,

And it gets stuck there forever.

Could you please help?

That's  normal, this version had a bug on log writing so logs aren't written automatically. Have you tried to interact with the mediaserver?

Looking for a fix.

[Milan Agatonovic]

Nope, I dont see anything listening to 8888 (default ws port)

root@kms:~# lsof -i :8888

root@kms:~# 

Can you publish the version without logging bug?

This is like dancing in the dark, really.

[Milan Agatonovic]

Hello,

could somebody help please?

1. how can I see what's going on, when media server stops logging during startup?

2. I can see that default 8888 doesn't accept any request through websockets

3. I can see that the process is not live itself: lsof -i and ps auxw do not show the process

4. I can start the process again without "stopping it", as it were never started.

Obviously something is really wrong with this machine and I did everything by following instructions.

What would you suggest?

I am happy to provide the account on the vps.

best,

MIlan

Update:

Tried with nightly dev packages for Trusty64 bit. No luck Same symptoms.

Tried to build from source. The same.

[Jose Antonio Santos Cadenas]

Analyzing the log again it seems that you have a problem with your locale.

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'

  what():  locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid

Googling a little bit I found this:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19100708/mongodb-mongorestore-failure-localefacet-s-create-c-locale-name-not-valid

https://www.foresightlinux.se/what-localefacet_s_create_c_locale-name-not-valid/

https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/issues/1052

https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/4688

All of them mention that using 

export LC_ALL=C

could solve the issue.

i have same problem. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/kurento/5HbPm5EF_5I

how to solve it? please help me.

[Nolan Darilek]

Do you perhaps need to generate locales?

http://askubuntu.com/questions/162391/how-do-i-fix-my-locale-issue

I find that the Ubuntu servers I get from VPS providers sometimes don't
do this correctly so much that it became a part of my default Ansible setup.

ye success, thx Nolan, thx everyone~
