CENTOS 7 SETUP STEPS AFTER INSTALLATION
In order to get StreamBuilder running on CentOS, you should do the following right after installation:
You could check if StreamBuilder is installed successfully by running /usr/local/bin/streambuilder. Correct output should be something like:
- Сomment in /etc/sudoers:#Defaults requiretty
- Set security policy to permissive in /etc/selinux/config:SELINUX=permissiveYou may disable SELinux completely by setting SELINUX=disabled if you don't need security logs. Refer to SELinux manual for more information.
- Reboot the server for changes to take effect or simply run:sudo setenforce 0
You could check if StreamBuilder is installed successfully by running /usr/local/bin/streambuilder. Correct output should be something like:
streambuilder R8.6/357246e24a6d10978ed1cc8dc00c345dce743852Please refer to Configuration(ссылка) section for configuring and setting up.
ADVANCED INSTALLATION
We provide binary packages to install using your OS package manager:
- streambuilder: Encoding core. Dependencies: streambuilder-libs (libraries used by Streambuilder), streambuilder-api (HTTP API)
- streambuilder-ui: user interface
CENTOS
Add our repository by creating file /etc/yum.repos.d/streambuilder.repo with the following content:
[streambuilder]
name=streambuilder
baseurl=http://repo.streambuilder.pro/rpm/centos/7
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
Refresh packages list:
sudo yum makecache Install Streambuilder:
sudo yum install streambuilder Install Streambuilder-ui:
sudo yum install streambuilder-uiInstall streambuilder on latest CentOS versions
For Intel QuickSync support Streambuilder uses libva of 1.3.1-staging version from Media Server Studio. And therefore it is necessary to remove the system package if it is installed
$ sudo yum remove libva And the next step is to install the Streambuilder rpm package as shown earlier.
