In the documentation of "Installing KalturaCE using VMWare on Windows", it stats that "This document is outdated, VMWare releases were stopped since v1.5 release when multi-platform support added.", but there is no updated version of this help available.

Kindly let me know how I can install Kaltura community edition on windows server. I have already downloaded the "kalturaCE_v1.5_win32.gz" file from the following link "http://www.kaltura.org/project/kalturaCE".

i got kaltura installed fine on Server2003, but it would never convert any videos. after hunting around the forums, i found a post where someone posted the same problem, got an answer, and it worked for him. it did not work for me. i finally gave up and installed on linux.

i just used the 'getting started guide' for my windows install.

if you still want to try it out, here's the cliff notes:

download xampp 1.7.1 for windows
download kalturaCE (you already did that)
extract kalturaCE to the 'htdocs' folder. the path would look something like this: C:\lampp\htdocs\KalturaCE
sitting on the server, from a browser, go to, http://localhost
navigate your way to phpmyadmin, under 'MySQL localhost' create a new database called KalturaCE
from your browser, go to, http://localhost/KalturaCE
hopefully you are greeted with the installer and it is pretty easy to go from there.

good luck.
