Cannot install Kaltura oflaDemo on CentOS7


I'm currently setting up a Kaltura streaming server on CentOS 7 with mariaDB. When I come to the point the installation manual requires me to install oflaDemo via browser, I only get an empty list. No connection errors occour. The debug output states:

Host: vstream-dev.my.domain
Trying to connect
Net status: NetConnection.Connect.Success
Got the application list
Got the application list
Got the application list

So, in theory there shouldn't be a problem.


Solution

  • Ok, I solved it.

    What I did:

    I cloned the repo with the red5 examples: https://github.com/Red5/red5-examples and navigated into the subfolder oflaDemo (with pom.xml).

    Then I had to install maven with

    yum install -y maven
    

    and do a maven build

    mvn clean install
    

    After that, I was able to grab the file target/red5-example-oflaDemo-2.0.war. I extracted this file into a folder oflaDemo in /var/lib/red5/webapps and restarted the server. Finally, I did mkdir /usr/lib/red5/webapps/oflaDemo/streams to create a folder for the streams.

    After that, I was able to navigate to the demo via

    http://my.domain:5080/oflaDemo/
