Getting Started – Ubuntu
3 Set up the AVHS portal
Note
The ST server should be started after the web server, since the ST server uses the web server for registration.
3.3.5 Start the media servers
Copy the media proxy startup script to
/etc/init.d/
and link it to the system’s default run level:
# cd /etc/init.d/
# cp /home/sts/current/setup/mediaserver_mediaproxy1 .
# cp /home/sts/current/setup/mediaserver_evostream1 .
# update-rc.d mediaserver_mediaproxy1 defaults 90
# update-rc.d mediaserver_evostream1 defaults 90
To start the media server:
# service mediaserver_mediaproxy1 start
# service mediaserver_evostream1 start
3.3.6 Verify installation
The AVHS installation is now complete. Devices and users should be able to connect.
Open the test page to view basic information about the installation:

Note
• The media server uses a lot of open file descriptors. Check your user’s limit on file descriptors and the highest value in the
Linux kernel. The default value in the
mediaserver_<mediaproxy_id>
daemon is 10000. If you need more, change
the value of the
FILES
variable and contact the AVHS Helpdesk to obtain a new media server binary file.
• The number of allowed file descriptors can be checked by running
ulimit -n
.
