In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Streama on Ubuntu Server Latest.
Before proceeding with the installation process, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
To install Java on Ubuntu, run the following command:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk
To install MySQL on Ubuntu, run the following command:
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
Once MySQL is installed, log in to your MySQL server and create a new database for Streama.
mysql -u root -p
CREATE DATABASE streama;
Now, download the Streama package from the official website or from the GitHub repository.
wget https://github.com/streamaserver/streama/releases/download/v1.7.2/streama-1.7.2.war
Then, create a new directory where you want to keep the Streama files.
mkdir /opt/streama
Move the downloaded Streama package to this directory.
mv streama-1.7.2.war /opt/streama/streama.war
Create a new configuration file for Streama.
sudo nano /etc/default/streama
Add the following lines to the configuration file:
JAVA_OPTS="-Dgrails.env=prod -Dserver.contextPath=/streama"
STREAMA_HOME="/opt/streama"
Replace STREAMA_HOME with the path where you stored the Streama files.
Save and close the file.
Run the following command to start Streama.
java -jar /opt/streama/streama.war
Streama will start and you can access it by going to the URL:
http://<server-ip-address>:8080/streama
Once you access Streama, you will be prompted to create a new admin account.
Enter the necessary details and create a new admin account.
After creating the admin account, you can configure and use Streama to manage and stream your media files.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Streama on Ubuntu Server Latest.
