Setting up RHEL5 Streaming Media Server -- Red5 http://www.linuxidc.com//Linux/2010-03/25162.htm

The Red5 Server can be deployed on one Server or multiple servers as a cluster environment. This time, it is deployed on only one machine.

2.1.2 download the Red5 Server package

: Http://www.red5.org/downloads/red5/4240_1 /.

The downloaded file is: red5-1.0.1.tar.gz.

2.1.3 install Java

Red5 is an application based on Java 6 (1.6) and Java 7 (1.7). You must first install Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 or later. To develop a server-side application, install Java Development Kit (JDK) 6 or later.

We recommend that you install the latest Java JDK or JRE version for your platform. If you are using a 64-bit operating system, check that the 64-bit Java installation package is also selected.

You can download Java from the official Oracle website ?.

If you need to verify that Java 6 (1.6) or Java 7 (1.7) has been correctly installed and run, you can open the command line Prompt window, run the following command:

Java-version

If Java has been correctly installed and configured, a version number equal to or greater than 1.6 is returned.

2.2 Installation Steps

The steps for installing Red5 are simple. You can simply decompress it. Run the following command:

Cp red5-1.0.1.tar.gz/opt Cd/opt Tar-xvf red5-1.0.1.tar.gz

 

This will install Red5 to the/opt directory, the installation directory is/opt/red5-server-1.0.

2.3 check installation result 2.3.1 check port number

Log on to Linux as a root user and run the following command: netstat-anp | grep "LISTEN" to check the port number.

[Root @ yuanhuan ~] # Netstat-anp | grep "LISTEN" Tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0: 111 0.0.0.0: * LISTEN 1676/rpcbind Tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0: 36277 0.0.0.0: * LISTEN 1724/rpc. statd Tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0: 22 0.0.0.0: * LISTEN 1940/sshd Tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1: 631 0.0.0.0: * LISTEN 1792/cupsd Tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1: 25 0.0.0.0: * LISTEN 2021/master Tcp 0 0: 1935: * LISTEN 3344/java Tcp 0 0: 9999: * LISTEN 3344/java Tcp 0 0: 111: * LISTEN 1676/rpcbind Tcp 0 0: 22: * LISTEN 1940/sshd Tcp 0 0: 1: 631: * LISTEN 1792/cupsd Tcp 0 0: 5080: * LISTEN 3344/java Tcp 0 0: 1: 25: * LISTEN 2021/master Tcp 0 0: 52124: * LISTEN 1724/rpc. statd Tcp 0 0: 32807: * LISTEN 3344/java

 

The red part indicates that all the port numbers listened to by Red5 are enabled.

2.3.2 check the process

Run the following command to check the process started by Red5: ps-ef | grep java.

[Root @ yuanhuan ~] # Ps-ef | grep java Root 3344 3057 20 00:00:10 pts/0/usr/bin/java-Dpython. home = lib-Dred5.root =/opt/red5-server-1.0-Dlogback. contextSelector = org. red5.logging. loggingContextSelector-Dcatalina. useNaming = true-Djava. security. debug = failure-cp/opt/red5-server-1.0/red5-server-1.0-bootstrap.jar:/opt/red5-server-1.0/conf: org. red5.server. bootstrap

 

2.3.3 check whether Red5 is automatically started

Red5 is not run as a Linux system service, but is started by executing its startup command, you can write its startup command:/opt/red5-server-1.0/red5.sh to/etc/rc. local.

2.3.4 play the video that comes with Red5 to check whether it is running normally

The Red5 Server comes with a test page with some examples for testing. Access http: // 10.120.112.35: 5080/in the browser to go to its test page:

On the test page, you must install some applications before testing. Click the Install link below to go to the App installation page:

Select an app for installation. After the installation is complete, return to the main test page again. Click the "Launch a demo" Link under the Install link to go to some demo pages that come with Red5:

Click the just-installed OFLA Demo to test its RTMP and RTMPT protocols:

3. 3.1 Start and Stop services 3.1.1 Linux/Unix platforms:

Open the Shell command and enter the following command:/opt/red5-server-1.0/red5.sh.

3.1.2 stop on Linux/Unix:
