Sample page provided by ant media server not publishing live stream.

[kashiftariq1997]

Hi, I'm trying to integrate ant media server to my ruby on rails + react.js application for live streaming does anybody have any idea about how should I start? I have downloaded the ant media server and I have set it up on my machine and started it I can access the ant media server dashboard but I'm having an issue, when I try to publish a new live stream using ant media server using the sample page it does not publish the live stream.

do you get any error message while publishing ?
which version of ant media server are you using ?

[kashiftariq1997]

Yes, It just stops after this and the start publishing button still remains active, and the stop publishing button still remains disabled.

[USAMAWIZARD]

can you try this
sudo systemctl stop antmedia
cd /usr/local/antmedia
sudo ./start.sh

then publish the video and see if there are any errors on server side

I'm getting this error in the logs:

can you go to security and privacy settings and check if the library is blocked there

[kashiftariq1997]

Yes, I have done that and checked if the library is blocked but still getting the same error in the logs.

[USAMAWIZARD]

on my end the issue was related to jingle_peerconnection_so being blocked on the security and privacy settings once I allowed it from there it started working as expected.
lets connect on a call to look at the problem together if you are available on this Friday.
please mail at [email protected] or at [email protected]

It seems like there is an issue with the installation. To resolve it, you need to install Ant Media Server on the Ubuntu 20.04 operating system. Please re-install Ant Media Server by following the instructions provided in the Quick Start Guide available at: https://antmedia.io/docs/quick-start/

[kashiftariq1997]

@lastpeony thanks for the reply,
I'm currently using Ant media server Community Edition 2.5.2 20230105_1947 locally on my macOS 12.5.1, and I'm getting the error Tag:NativeLibrary - Message:java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no jingle_peerconnection_so in java.library.path: :/Users/applemac/Downloads/ant-media-server/lib/native-mac:/Users/applemac/Downloads/ant-media-server/lib/native.
Is this issue because of my machine or OS that I'm using?

[lastpeony]

yes. you need to use it on ubuntu 20.04

[kashiftariq1997]

So, there isn't any way that I can use Ant media server on macOS?

[lastpeony]

It doesn't make sense to run this software on a local machine since it's designed to run on cloud instances. If you want to test it locally, it's recommended to use a virtual machine or container with Ubuntu installed.
Personally i use WSL on my local windows computer.
You can use Docker on mac or iTerm2, Hyper, virtualbox etc
Please let us know after you tested on ubuntu 20.04
