Hello,
I'm a debian server admin with almost no experience with JAVA (I do
run solr 5 on jetty9, so have some idea about CATALINA and .jar files,
etc).
I have installed OM 5.0.0 M3 on Ubuntu 18 with version 6.10 of the
kurento-media-server; This is on a server running apache 2.4.x
(latest) etc. [With ISPConfig3 on port 8080 - which includes Let's
Encrypt certbot ssl certificates with domains installed through
ISPConfig3 - for what that's worth]!
I have a few general questions that I can't seem to find anwsers to
anywhere, and a specific problem which I'll start with:
1) I have this working fine for text chat and interactive whiteboard,
but; although I can see myself and hear myself when logged-in - and
other users can do the same, we can't see eath other nor can we hear
each other. I have studied the only manual I could find the old 2.0 OM
manual - and that gives me an idea that I can administer and use the
software. So I guess that it is the browser (all of them) that isn't
allowing shared audio and video because of self-signed ssl
certificates. Is this correct? If so, will OM accpet LE (Let's Encrypt
- dehydrated) certs?
2) Can I (and should I) update:
Kurento to 6.13 ?
tomcat3 - which I assume means the java servlet version 3 which runs
tomcat7 to a servlet version of 4 which runs tomcat9 - and which I
believe contains built-in sni or something that might help to secure
ssl with the browsers?
3) I am trying to test this with apache2 stopped - does OM 5 with KMS
run better served with just tomcat or will it serve more users, etc.
faster with apache2 on top? I have seen some info on proxying with
apache2.4 but it isn't clear if that is the way to go, if apache2
isn't really needed on the server. - any advice?
4) Lastly does anyone have it setup with LE (Let's Encrypt) in a
working production environment so the major browsers don't throw
insecure errors.
Thanks for any help / advice - I need to get this up and running with
shared audio and video asap for school to work from home with
coronavirus ...
Thanks Ed
