Hi, I am testing the functionality in build #68
These I believe are issues, please check and comment. Test scenario, one moderator, two other participants (one with Audio & Video and one with Audio only) then join the meeting. A forth participant joins the meeting 1) When the moderator hovers over the red disable icon of the "Allow/Deny right to give exclusive audio" column for either of the two other participants, the text that hovers is "Allow user to give exclusive audio", but after they have been granted rights to give exclusive audio, if you hover over the green circled tick, then the text says "User is Moderator, he can do anything.", where as it would be more correct if the hover text said "Remove ability to give exclusive audio", like the "Remove ability to draw on the whiteboard". The "Allow/Deny right to Remote Control Screen" ticks also has the same issue (they display "User is Moderator, he can do anything."). In fact in this scenario the statement "User is Moderator, he can do anything." is incorrect as this user is not a moderator. 2) I would have expected that giving users the "Allow user to give exclusive audio" would allow users to control the who currently has exclusive audio (i.e. whose mic is not muted), but the users cannot control the use of "exclusive audio" (unless they are made moderators). 3) It seems the only way to give exclusive audio is by clicking the centre of that persons video window, but if a person is set to "Audio only", then they don't have a video window so there is no way to grant them "exclusive audio". Would it not be better to have a way to control exclusive audio from the "Users" list? Why not use the round green (user speaks) icon. (see point 5 where it was found that the fourth user to the meeting did get a third, video like window where they could control the "exclusive audio" for the person who was set to "audio only". But these windows did not appear for the moderator or the other two who were the first to join. 4) In the "Users" list there is a round green icon like the green icon that appears in the Video window, but unlike the video window, it does not change to solid green when the user is speaking, I believe it is supposed to? If it is not, then what does it do? The hover text says "User speaks". 5) when a fourth user joined the meeting (with no audio/video), they had two video windows (moderator and the one user who was sending video) and one other window like a video window but without any picture as the name label of that window indicated that it was the other user who was sending audio only. This fourth user, when made a moderator could control who had "exclusive audio", but only when a moderator. The other three users still had no way to give the "audio only" user, "exclusive audio". 6) I did a few audio tests to see how much echo was an issue, and I am amazed, I had no echo. I will try to test this again, another day. Thanks to those who have been working on OpenMeetings.

In fact I could not understand your problem clearly. Can you post error messages or warnings in the logs. That would make the issue clearer, I think. Moreover, there is an issue that, as I remember right, running red5/openmeetings on a port below or equal 1200 requires to be root.

I did find the difference, in my first server I was running openMeetings as the root user, but with subsequent servers I had been using nobody. Running OpenMeetings under nobody works well for port 5080, but not for port 80, and I cannot understand why that might be. One thing I could try is to create a full account called "openmeetings" which has a home directory and then try running OpenMeetings under this account. Sometimes software requires an account with a home directory, not just a dummy account. I believe the issue is related with OpenMeetings code somewhere, as the Red5 server is running and accepting connections (root), just when you try to run OpenMeetings itself, that fails. If I get success at any time, I will post back, but first I wanted to learn if anyone was familiar with the issue, and it looks like everyone else has their OpenMeetings servers either using port 5080 or are successfully running under 'nobody'.

If Apache is running on port 80 then they will conflict. To aid in finding the problem, If you go here /usr/lib/red5 Then chmod 755 red5-debug.sh Then start it using the debug mode ./red5-debug.sh This will tell you more about why its failing to start.

I have a number of Debian OpenMeetings servers. The first that I built I have configured using port 80 instead of port 5080, and all works well. Since that time I have built a few more Debian OpenMeetings servers and I cannot get any of them to work with port 80. I really do not think the issue is with OpenMeetings or its configuration, because I can copy the entire "red5" folder from the new servers to the first (working) server and it will work on port 80. I am hoping that someone may have had similar issues and knows how to resolved it.

I have been informed that "If you add a new label we have a common (undocumentated) rule: We add this label to all language files. You can fill up other language files the english one. However all language files should contain the same number of labels and not only a subset." What is it that I should add to all the other language files? The same English item, and then hope those with knowledge of the other languages modify for the languages that they are proficient in? Is there a way to ask others to check and update any languages that they are proficient in? Maybe there are other practices that I would be good for me to follow, if so, please let me know.
