How to Install Camfrogserver Advanced 6.0 on Ubuntu Linux

Install Camfrogserver Advanced 6.0 on Ubuntu Linux This step by step guide helps you to install Camfrog Server on Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat). In the beginning, when Camfrog Server was launched, some people thought that it was only for RedHat AS/ES 4.x 5.x, CentOS 4.x 5.x, Fedora 6.x 7.x 8.x operating systems. After sometime it was found that you can also convert rpm packages to deb packages with the help of alien. Once you convert it, rpm will be automatically installed. In addition, 32bit library files are required:

sudo apt-get -f install ia32-libs

7 Steps For How to Install Camfrogserver Advanced 6.0 on Ubuntu Linux

 

1 For your convenience, RPM Package is already converted and you don’t need to use alien.

You can download it from this server: //www.jmes.me/camfrogserver_6.1-17_all.deb

cd /tmp
wget http://www.jmes.me/camfrogserver_6.1-17_all.deb

Now install it:

sudo dpkg -i camfrogserver_6.1-17_all.deb

 

2 Now create a “new” script in the /etc/init.d/directory known to be camfrogserver and put this in the file:

sudo nano -x /etc/init.d/camfrogserver

#!/bin/bash

#

### BEGIN INIT INFO

# Provides: camfrogserver

# Required-Start: $network $remote_fs $syslog

# Required-Stop: $network $remote_fs $syslog

# Should-Start: $named

# Should-Stop: $named

# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5

# Default-Stop: 0 1 6

# Short-Description: Camfrog Server Linux Debian init.d script by James Youngstrom.

### END INIT INFO

NAME=camfrogserver

DESC="Camfrog Server"

DAEMON=/usr/bin/camfrogserver

PIDFILE=/var/run/camfrogserver/$NAME.pid

CONFDIR=/etc/camfrogserver.d

CMDFILE=/var/run/camfrogserver/commands.ctl

DAEMON_ARGS="-f -p${PIDFILE} -c${CMDFILE} ${CONFDIR}/cf_server.conf -d"

CF_USER=camfrogserver

do_start() {

start-stop-daemon --start

--user $CF_USER

--chuid $CF_USER

--pidfile $PIDFILE

--exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_ARGS < /dev/null

return $?

}

do_stop() {

start-stop-daemon --stop

--retry=TERM/30/KILL/5

--pidfile $PIDFILE

--name $NAME

pkill $NAME

rm -f $PIDFILE

return "$?"

}

case "$1" in

start)

echo "Starting Camfrog Server"

do_start

echo "Camfrog Server Started Successfully"

;;

stop)

echo "Shutting Down Camfrog Server."

do_stop

echo "Camfrog Server Is Now Down"

;;

restart)

echo "Restarting Camfrog Server..."

do_stop

sleep 10

do_start

echo "Camfrog Server Restarted"

;;

*)

echo "Usage: $0 start|stop|restart"

exit 1

esac

exit 0

;;

 

3 Afterwards, make it executable:

sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/camfrogserver

Then, you have to boot on system startup:

sudo update-rc.d camfrogserver defaults

Ports to forward:

6000:6010 tcp

5000:15000 udp

6005 udp

5999 tcp(for web panel access pro feature)

UFW commands to open ports for camfrogserver:

sudo ufw allow proto tcp from any to any port 6000:6010

sudo ufw allow proto udp from any to any port 5000:15000

sudo ufw allow 6005/udp

sudo ufw allow 5999/tcp

 

4 Then, in order to edit the cf_server.conf, we have created one based off the sample.

First of all, you have to edit the configuration file according to your requirement:

sudo nano -x /etc/camfrogserver.d/cf_server.conf.sample

Edit the following parameters in cf_server.conf.sample and save it as cf_server.conf:

rooms_active=Ubuntu_Linux

web_interface_enabled=on

web_server_port=5999

web_server_interface=

Ctrl+X saves the file. Make sure to rename it to cf_server.conf.

 

5 Then:

sudo mkdir /etc/camfrogserver.d/room_name

After that: sudo nano -x /etc/camfrogserver.d/cf_room.conf.sample

Editing the following parameters to suit your needs:

logon_name=Ubuntu_Linux

logon_password=password

serial=00000000000-0000000000000000-0000000

remote_access_login=James

remote_access_password=password

Ctrl + X to save the file. Save as:

room_name/cf_room.conf

 

6 You can save it to:

/etc/camfrogserver.d/Ubuntu_Linux/cf_room.conf

Then, start the camfrogserver and type:

service camfrogserver start

After that, write:

/usr/bin/camfrogserver -g

This will update the SSL_certificate_param in your cf_server.confautomatically.

You will see the following:

Certificate generated successfully, cert file name: /etc/camfrogserver.d/cert.pem, configuration file /etc/camfrogserver.d/cf_server.conf updated

 

7 You are now allowed to login to your web interface with the help of your Remote Access Login and Password. But, you need to restart your system before doing this.

service camfrogserver restart
