MS Windows 2003.

Could you be more precise?
I have already installed Openmeetings on win2003, so I can help you.

I supposed you have already read this
http://code.google.com/p/openmeetings/wiki/InstallationOf05RC6Beta6

Some tips and trick :
add imagemagick, swftools and ghostscript in your path (this avoid error with
\Program [space] Files, but maybe this bug is fixed now...)
you need to modify $RED5/conf/wrapper.conf with something like this
# Java Additional Parameters
wrapper.java.additional.1="-Djava.security.manager"
wrapper.java.additional.2="-Djava.security.policy=../conf/red5.policy"
# Application parameters. Add parameters as needed starting from 1
wrapper.app.parameter.1=org.red5.server.Standalone

For running OOo as a service, you'll find some help here

For the database, I do not know which one you use. (I have run openmeetings
with mysql and MS sql Server)

Enjoy

Hi Cedric,
I have a problem coming from the "C:\Program[space]Files..." issue.
Did you resolve it only by adding the imagemagick, swftools and GS to
the path?
I have problems converting the PPT: this is due to the conversion
command that is:
start C:\Program Files\Red5\webapps\openmeetings\jod\jodconverter.bat
java C:\Program Files\Red5\webapps\openmeetings\uploadtemp
\public_7\Prte.ppt C:\Program Files\Red5\webapps\openmeetings\upload
\public_7\Prte\Prte.pdf C:\Program Files\Red5\webapps\openmeetings\jod
\

The response of DOS is
The system cannot find the file C:\Program.

So the problem is on the first part of the command: start C:\Program
Files\Red5\webapps\openmeetings\jod\jodconverter.bat
this should be
start "C:\Program Files\Red5\webapps\openmeetings\jod
\jodconverter.bat"
or
start C:\Progra~1\Red5\webapps\openmeetings\jod\jodconverter.bat

How to fix it?

Oh yes I forgot to say that I have installed red5 in "c:\red5" !
Indeed I experienced the same problem than you did.

For the additionnal tools (imagemagick,...) I have add them to the path and I
leave it blank in the install procedure. May be you don't have to do it,
never really try to declare the path only during install ...

Hi Cédric, thank you for your suggestions! They have been very
precious.
I have obtained a successful PPT conversion!
