Requirements

  • A JDK version 5.0 or higher
  • VLMa binary package

How to

First extract VLMa distribution archive to the folder of your choice, you should see the following folders:

  • bin/ Command line wrappers to manage VLMa
  • conf/ Configuration
  • data/ Data
  • lib/ Dependencies
  • logs/ Log directory
  • webapps/ Webapps to deploy
  • work/ Folder needed by the servlet container

UNIX specific

Ensure that the JAVA_HOME environment variable has been set. Run the following command:

echo $JAVA_HOME

If it does not print anything to the standard input but whitespaces, this means that JAVA_HOME has not been set. You can set JAVA_HOME using the following command:

export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/your/JDK/installation

Then open a terminal and go to the folder where you extracted VLMa. You can run VLMa daemon by running the following command:

bin/vlmad start

To run the web UI, open a new terminal and run:

bin/vlmaw start

Windows specific

Ensure that the JAVA_HOME environment variable has been set and that it points to a valid JDK installation. To do this, have a look at:

Then open a prompt and change directory to where you extracted VLMa. You can run VLMa daemon by running the following command:

bin\vlmad start

To run the web UI, open a new prompt and run:

bin\vlmaw start

The end

To finish with, go to http://localhost:8080, you should see VLMa dashboard which tells you which medias are currently streamed and the list of servers VLMa didn't manage to contact through their telnet interface.
