Problem with recording session
Hello,
i am able to record a short Audio / Video sequence setting up the System with (Check Setup).
But inside a room i can share a screen but not record the session.
The recording is listed in the files but „not available“
OM and Kurento are running on the same user.
How can i debug this to find the cause?
I can see, that my current user i am logged in with is not allowed to Access the „streams“ Folder.
Thanks for helping.
Maybe this Question was answered before but this really old fashione Mailing list is not giving me a feature to search for this ☹

Hello Maxim,
maybe you should read it as it is available on the project side:
My sincere thanks to Maxim Solodovnik for his help, without
which i could not have finished this tutorial satisfactorily.
It is made step by step.
14-12-2019
O.K. i do not want to bring this discussion on the wrong way as i am really happy with your support.
I did some testing and recording seems to work in my config.
Even 1920 x 1080 with 30 fps.
Only 3840 x 2160 did not work but this is not a problem only a test.
If there’s no more problem in my config (hopefully) we might finish here.
Have a good time

Hello Maxim,
this is all very confusing.
In the basic setup there’s a hint to change
...and replace in the line number 7:
DAEMON_USER="kurento"
...to
DAEMON_USER="nobody"
In „Installation SSL certificates and Coturn for OpenMeetings 5.0.0-M3.pdf“ is written
...and modifie if is a different user name at the following line, leaving it like this:
DAEMON_USER="kurento"
So the kurento daemon user finaly is kurento?
How does this suite to running everything as „nobody“???
And even if you say that tomcat has to be started as „kurento“ and not „nobody“.
Please be aware, that not everybody knows the dependencies of all the parts in the OM system.
Maybe an explanation or a simple „map“ could explain this to beginners.
So – what about my current configuration?
I have changed the password of kurento user in ubunto to match one of my own passwords.
Than i logged in as kurento and started the system.
Everything at least came up but now i need to test the functions.
Is this a working setup or is there still a problem in this config?
Best wishes

The simpliest way:

Maxim – please allow stupid question
How can i start OM with user kurento?
I followed „Installation OpenMeetings 5.0.0-M3 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.pdf“ but i can not see the problem?
What i can guess ist that user „kurento“ has to be created setting up Ubuntu 18.4?
Here i created my own user from which i did all the work.
With PS i can see, that tomcat is running in this context.
So i think there’s one important point missing in the manual (or overseen by me)
You need to setup Ubunt with a user named „kurento“ and do all the work from there?
Something clear to any dev but not to a stupid user like me.
Can this be the problem?

This actually means you have started KMS with user `kurento` and OM with user `root`
get ready for the troubles :)
To avoid folder disappearing (especially if you will do upgrade) I would suggest to use external data dir:
to archive this you have to provide special DATA_DIR option
here is the example
JAVA_OPTS="-DDATA_DIR=/home/solomax/work/openmeetings/data" ./bin/startup.sh
I recreated the Folders, changed owner to kurento:root and now i can record.
Can it be, that those Folders were deleted using the „cleanup“ function?
AFAIK only files are deleted by clean-up (but I would set up users correctly and don't bother ...)
But there’s an other Question coming up:
Is it possible to only record the Whiteboard but not the rest of the window?
The only way I see: add possibility to show WB in full-screen more and record the screen

O.K.
I did some research and i found out that my previously created „streams“ subfolders with numbers from 1 to 14 were gone?
sudo mkdir -p /opt/open503/webapps/openmeetings/data/streams/{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14}
Also the owner of some other „number Folders“ were wrong root:root.
I recreated the Folders, changed owner to kurento:root and now i can record.
Can it be, that those Folders were deleted using the „cleanup“ function?
But there’s an other Question coming up:
Is it possible to only record the Whiteboard but not the rest of the window?

Well, Gerald if you find „markmail“ or get the link from a freindly admin – that will work.
Searching for „recording“ i get 11295 results as every „mail“ is listed.
It is still „confusing“ for me but i will have to adopt.
Any help with my origin Problem (records no stored)?
