Anyone got CE V4.0 working on Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid)

I have it working on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I did the install but ran in to a few issues with the statistic modules. I had to manually rerun the grants that were needed for the Kaltura and etl users. which can be found in
package/app/app/deployment/final/sql/
package/app/app/deployment/base/

I've experienced the same issues like s.bond1 and Kaltura doesn't work yet.

After a lot of problems since version 2 I'm experienced with the kaltura problems but at the moment I don't know how to solve the problems.

Me too. I have installed Kaltura five times so far. Still no success.

It would be great if people who made it working could share a documentation of errors and solutions they experienced.

Cheers

i wrote some instructions based on Shawn Peters' work that gets me somewhat closer to operational with kubuntu 10.10. hopefully most of it applies to 10.04 as well.

as always, i found a few more things and changed the instructions.

thanks for the guide, helped a lil bit but still kaltura throws internal errors after being installed.

Can't understand why this OS software makes that much problems, never experienced by another software before. Completely badly arranged program!

Hi jkt

I found the original guide and the updated guide (both authored by jkt) extremely useful. As far as I can tell the installation went smoothly (yet to analyse the kaltura logs), I have logged in the kaltura instance, uploaded video and streamed back to a client. My base Ubuntu version was 10.4 LTS x64 and I've installed this into Amazon Web Services EC2.

I achieved more in 1 day with your guides, than I managed in 4 days trying to get Version 4.0 installed on CentOS x64 (which is the recommended operating system) with which I couldn't get past installing the prerequisites.

I used jkt's updated guide, and I would like to suggest that this guide is submitted "as is" or refined for inclusion on the main website (http://www.kaltura.org/kaltura-ce-v40-installation-guides). The Kaltura landing page (http://www.kaltura.org/) reads "Read Documentation and add Guides". The value this document bring to the community is just too high to have this languishing around in a forum that you (at least I) cannot search (easily).

With the above all said and done - I do have one question/observation. In the document under the section "PEAR" the code snippet reads:

apt-get install php-pear
ln -s php /usr/share/pear

In my eyes the symbolic link looks odd (wrong?). Can you expand upon what this line is attempting to do??

Once again - your guide is a massive help! I just want to try and help round it out any little anomalies (or you can put me right if my assumption is incorrect).

Gavin.

Thanks for your help Gavin... Have found a solution... perhaps the long way round.

OK... So I reinstalled my server with CentOS 5.6

Added all the modules and got it all running.... still the same error "internal server error"

Turns out it was Sphinx this time...

I ran the script you suggested to stop and start the sphinx script...

/opt/kaltura/app/scripts/sphinx_watch.sh stop
/opt/kaltura/app/scripts/sphinx_watch.sh start

I was getting an error "sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo" looping error that crashed my terminal... found a solution to this here: http://www.zimbra.com/forums/installation/10553-solved-sudo-sorry-you-mu...

Basically edit /etc/sudoers file and comment out comment out: #Default requiretty

I am not sure if this is the best workaround...

That got me working on CentOS (after a lot of wasted time methinks.... but hey... working now)

HOORAY... off to bed now as it is 3:30am, I am working in 5.5hrs... sleep time. : )

Is this open source? I've seen reports of information governance being accessible from apps and mobile phones. Third-party software needs to be free, easy to use and compatible. Who wants to sort data and then have it blocked off from some users?
