Error starting Janus

[Nitesh Bansal]

Hello,

I'm trying to build Janus from source, I used the steps in README to install all the dependencies
for the configs, only thing I disabled is rabbitmq.
I used the following command to start Janus
------------
/opt/janus/bin/janus &
------------

I'm running Janus on Ubuntu 14.

Here are my janus logs

------------
Error reading/parsing the configuration file, going on with the defaults and the command line arguments

Any help will be really appreciated.

Thanks

Did you do a 'make configs' after installing Janus? otherwise no configuration file will be available.

Hi,

Yes I did, it showed nice following output too:
---------------
make configs
/bin/mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/janus
cp "/root/janus-gateway/conf/janus.cfg.sample" "/usr/local/etc/janus/janus.cfg"; cp "/root/janus-gateway/conf/janus.transport.http.cfg.sample" "/usr/local/etc/janus/janus.transport.http.cfg"; cp "/root/janus-gateway/conf/janus.transport.websockets.cfg.sample" "/usr/local/etc/janus/janus.transport.websockets.cfg"; cp "/root/janus-gateway/conf/janus.plugin.audiobridge.cfg.sample" "/usr/local/etc/janus/janus.plugin.audiobridge.cfg"; cp "/root/janus-gateway/conf/janus.plugin.echotest.cfg.sample" "/usr/local/etc/janus/janus.plugin.echotest.cfg"; cp "/root/janus-gateway/conf/janus.plugin.recordplay.cfg.sample" "/usr/local/etc/janus/janus.plugin.recordplay.cfg"; cp "/root/janus-gateway/conf/janus.plugin.sip.cfg.sample" "/usr/local/etc/janus/janus.plugin.sip.cfg"; cp "/root/janus-gateway/conf/janus.plugin.streaming.cfg.sample" "/usr/local/etc/janus/janus.plugin.streaming.cfg"; cp "/root/janus-gateway/conf/janus.plugin.videocall.cfg.sample" "/usr/local/etc/janus/janus.plugin.videocall.cfg"; cp "/root/janus-gateway/conf/janus.plugin.videoroom.cfg.sample" "/usr/local/etc/janus/janus.plugin.videoroom.cfg"; cp "/root/janus-gateway/conf/janus.plugin.voicemail.cfg.sample" "/usr/local/etc/janus/janus.plugin.voicemail.cfg";

Do I need to run 'make install' again after make config?

[Lorenzo Miniero]

Well, it can't find the file:

Error reading configuration file 'janus.cfg'... error 2 (No such file or directory)

so either the file is not where it should be, or it's in the wrong place. I see you're still using a slightly older version of Janus (the error above doesn't contain the whole path but just the file name, something we changed some time ago), so I'd try again after a git pull.

Anyway no, you don't need to install again after a make configs: make configs is only needed once.

This is strange, everything worked fine, after I recompiled after 'git pull'.

I would like to try few more things though
