openmeetings For Mac

openmeetings works for Client as well as Server side for any Operating System, windows, Mac, Linux (tested with Ubuntu, Debian, Suse, Redhat, Fedora).

Here are the basic steps to install openmeetings: · Download OpenMeetings including Red5 (recommended) or download the two packages separated OpenMeetings Webapp only and Red5 Snapshot. If you download the two packages you have to place the OpenMeetings webapp into the webapp-folder of Red5.  · Unpack it (Please make sure that you use an up-to-date unzip-software) (and copy it somewhere in you system, do not start it from your Windows Desktop)  · you have now a folder openmeetings_0_7_rc1  · Prepare Database Settings - go to openmeetings_0_7_rc1/webapps/openmeetings/conf/hibernate.cfg.xml  · If you have problems in connecting your database, a common error is that the Database does not listen to TCP/IP Connection, or you properly need to replace the jdbc-driver with the one for your mysql-version, see http://www.mysql.com/products/connector/j/ for drivers and replace the mysql-connector-java-3.1.14-bin.jar in openmeetings/WEB-INF/lib with the one you have downloaded. If your mysql server is not located in localhost make sure the mysql-server is listening on that network-interface. Of course you must alter YOUR_HOSTNAME/YOUR_DATABASE to fit your needs for example to:jdbc:mysql://localhost/openmeetings  · If you go problems in connecting your database you properly need to replace the jdbc-driver with the one for your postgres-version, see http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html for drivers and replace the postgresql-8.2-504.jdbc2.jar in openmeetings/WEB-INF/lib with the one you have downloaded. Don't forget that the encoding of the database must be UTF8! Of course you must alter YOUR_HOSTNAME/YOUR_DATABASE to fit your needs for example to:jdbc:postgresql://localhost/openmeetings You can see a list of available dialect's here hibernate-SQL-dialects. You must download the driver for your database and copy it to $OPENMEETINGS-HOME/WEB-INF/lib  · (Re)start Red5 (The table's will be automatically created by hibernate if there is something wrong with your database values you will see errors in Red5 logfile  · go to the Installer by accessing it via browser: http://localhost:5080/openmeetings/install and follow the instructions After Running the Installer all basics are installed. Now login and go to the Meeting-Rooms and check all features. You possibly will have some difficulties uploading files.
