RedBox Red5 Version Upgrade

Xfer83 · Post by **Xfer83** » 05 May 2010, 18:25

I am interested in upgrading my RedBox Red5 server in order to use Xuggler as part of a SmartFoxServer project I am working on.

I attempted to upgrade to Red5 0.9.
I followed the suggested instructions here:
http://forums.smartfoxserver.com/viewtopic.php?t=3789
but this generated the following error:

Code: Select all

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/red5/server/Standalone

Could not find the main class: org.red5.server.Standalone.  Program will exit.

I believe this is because later versions of red5.jar don't use org.red5.server.Standalone

I'd really like to get this working, but so far I haven't been able.
Please let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks

I am not familiar with Xuggler.

I believe this is because later versions of red5.jar don't use org.red5.server.Standalone

This is possible, although strange. Anyways you should copy not only the jar files but also the start script (which usually sets the classpath), this way you ensure that the launcher is the right one.

I'm trying to update red5(0.9.1) on SmartFoxServer 1.6.6 and it's not that simple as it's described here.

I've copied lib's, red5.jar, boot.jar.
Because of configuration problems I had to copy also 'conf' directory.

After that I got the following exceptions:

Code: Select all

Has anyone succeeded in updating red5 and what version?

Hi,
I am sorry but at the moment I am not able to help. We'll update Red5 in our RedBox in a future release but at the moment there's nothing planned.

I find it strange to see references to Tomcat in your errors... do the latest version of Red5 use Tomcat?? I didn't expect that since Red5 was already embedding Jetty
