CHAOS Wowza plugin configuration description - Version 1

This page describes how to configure the Wowza plugin in the case of Iapetus.

wowza_vhost_chaos/conf/chaos/Application.xml

Make a symbolic link, replacing <VHost-root-dir>/content library. The symbolic link must point to the root library of the media files. The root of the media files is at /net/plutre/mp3tmp/done. E.g.

ln -s /net/plutre/mp3tmp/done content

wowza_vhost_chaos/conf/chaos/chaos-streaming-server-plugin.properties

Set URL of the MCM server used for validating request. An example for Iapetus could be:

GeneralMCMServerURL=http://chaos.larm-archive.org/API/PortalService.svc

Configure database logging:

StatisticsLoggingLocallyInDB=true
StatisticsLoggingJDBCDriver=org.postgresql.Driver
StatisticsLoggingDBConnectionURL=jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/larm-devel
StatisticsLoggingDBUser=larm
StatisticsLoggingDBPassword=larm1234

wowza_vhost_chaos/conf/VHost.xml

Set port numbers for the virtual host in the element <Port> located approximately at line 10 in the file. Default is 1935. An example for Iapetus with several virtual hosts could be:

<Port>1935</Port>

wowza/conf/VHosts.xml

Create a virtual host for the wowza plugin. This is configuring the server and not the virtual host. An example for Iapetus could be:

<VHost>
        <Name>_chaosVHost_</Name>
        <ConfigDir>/home/wowza/services/wowza_vhost_chaos</ConfigDir>
        <ConnectionLimit>0</ConnectionLimit>
</VHost>
