Open Streaming Platform is an open-source video streaming platform that allows you to easily create your own video streaming website. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Open Streaming Platform on Fedora Server Latest.
The first step is to update your system to ensure all packages are up to date. Run the following command in your terminal:
sudo dnf update
Enter your password when prompted, and wait for the update process to complete. This may take a few minutes.
Open Streaming Platform requires several dependencies to function properly. Run the following command to install these dependencies:
sudo dnf install -y git python3 nginx mariadb mariadb-server mariadb-devel libjpeg-turbo-devel libpng-devel ffmpeg-devel
Enter your password when prompted, and wait for the installation process to complete.
Now that all dependencies are installed, we can proceed to clone Open Streaming Platform from the official GitHub repository using the following command:
sudo git clone https://github.com/OpenStreamingPlatform/osp-install.git /opt/osp
Once Open Streaming Platform is cloned, we can install it using the installation script provided by Open Streaming Platform by running the following command:
sudo bash /opt/osp/install.sh
This command will run the installation script which will prompt you to enter some details for setting up Open Streaming Platform, such as the database root password and the administrator email address.
Follow the prompts and wait for the installation to complete. The installation process may take a few minutes depending on your server's performance.
Open Streaming Platform uses Nginx as its web server. We need to configure Nginx to serve Open Streaming Platform.
First, we'll remove the default Nginx configuration file:
sudo rm /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
Then, we'll create a new configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
Copy the following configuration into the file:
user nginx;
worker_processes auto;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
pid /run/nginx.pid;
worker_rlimit_nofile 8192;
events {
worker_connections 4096;
}
http {
include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
client_max_body_size 100m;
sendfile on;
tcp_nopush on;
tcp_nodelay on;
keepalive_timeout 65;
server_tokens off;
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com; # Change this to your domain name
root /var/www/html;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection keep-alive;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
}
location /stat {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080/stat;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection keep-alive;
proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
}
error_page 404 /404.html;
location = /40x.html {
}
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
}
}
}
Save and close the file by pressing CTRL + X
, then Y
, then ENTER
.
Now, we'll restart Nginx to apply the changes:
sudo systemctl restart nginx
Open Streaming Platform should now be installed and ready to use. You can access it by visiting your server's IP address in your web browser.

Congratulations, you have successfully installed Open Streaming Platform on your Fedora Server Latest! You can now customize the platform and start streaming your own videos.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
