This auto-installer will allow you to install the Boonex RMS (Media Server) in less than 5 minutes on your web server. It fully automates the process including installing Java. It also includes several unique optional features not found or available elsewhere.
If you find the Boonex instructions confusing, then why not save yourself one big headache not to mention it will save you a lot of time.
I put a lot of time into creating this. The programming, development, and testing took months to complete so I can't just give it away. However, it will be very reasonably priced, and much cheaper than what it would cost you to pay someone to install it.
Awk, grep, sed, wget, etc. The installer will check to see if they are installed and available. If not, you will be prompted to either exit, and you can install any of the missing ones yourself. Or, the auto-installer can install them for you. Most likely you already have them as they are common, default, standard binaries.
* Installs RMS to your server IP address, and supports IPv4 Addresses only.
* Not for shared hosting accounts.
Checks to see if awk, grep, sed, wget, etc. are installed (which are required), and optionally will install any that happen to be missing for you.
Checks to see if Java is installed. If not it will automatically select yes to install it. If Java is already installed, then it will automatically select no not to install it.
I assume that you want to install RMS and will select yes, but you can optionally choose no to install Java only.
from the ssh command line, or reboot your server.
* CentOS 6x, CentOS 7x, Ubuntu 16.04.x, Ubuntu 18.04.x, Debian 8x, and Debian 9x installs by means of rc.local RMS start up only.
If you select no, then you will be asked to manually enter the IP address.
Selecting yes will install RMS on the default 1935, 1936, 5080 ports.
* Be sure the ports you choose are open in your firewall or iptables.
Domain(s) (Dolphin websites) that will be allowed to use your RMS.
You must enter at least 1 domain in domain.com format. (no http:// or www's).
You may enter a maximum of 5.
Path/Location where you want RMS located on your server.
Maximum of 3 directories/folders deep.
If directories/folders do not exist they are automatically created.
Runs a 20 second test so you can see the output in the ssh command line window.
If you select yes a root entry will be added to /etc/crontab that will check every 5 minutes to see if RMS is running. If it's not running it starts it.
This will be selected for you automatically. If you already have Java there is no need to install it so no would be selected. If you don't have Java it will automatically select yes.
If the Auto-installer determines that you don't have Java on your system OpenJDK will automatically be selected for you.
After you make your selections, you will be asked to review your choices before proceeding, with an option to continue or exit.
** Be sure to review these thoroughly before proceeding. If you entered something wrong, then exit and run the installer again.
Once you continue it will attempt to retrieve the RMS package (70+ MBs), which may take several seconds depending on your server's connection speed so be patient. If it can't retrieve it, it will try again in 30 seconds, and again in 60 seconds.
If it successfully retrieves the RMS package it will begin installing everything based on the choices you made. If for some reason it can't it won't install anything, and it will tell you to try again later.
Once it starts installing it will only take a minute or two to finish.
If you are familiar with the RMS installation process you can use this auto-installer to completely install RMS in 10-15 minutes, or less.
