[SOLVED] David Vs Goliath - Help me install PHP+QB+AV on Ubuntu DedServ

wh33t · 12-16-2014, 12:06 AM

Hey LQ,

I'm trying to make a mini youtube (no not for porn!) site. I want to be able to handle video uploads, and then compress them to various formats, add watermarks yatta yatta. I stumbled upon this: http://php-qb.net/index.php/2-uncate...php-and-ffmpeg

That looks like pretty good to me.

So I'm going through the setup process here: https://github.com/chung-leong/av/wi...ation-on-Linux

And when I do

Code:

phpize

I Get

Code:

wh33t@Wh33tBox:~$ phpize
Cannot find config.m4.
Make sure that you run '/usr/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the mod                       ule

wh33t@Wh33tBox:~$ sudo phpize
Cannot find config.m4.
Make sure that you run '/usr/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the mod                       ule

And yeah, I have no idea what that error means. I have a feeling it has something to do with where the tarball source is located. Currently it's ~

Code:

wh33t@Wh33tBox:~$ ls -l
total 112
-rw-rw-r-- 1 wh33t wh33t 23229 Feb 24  2014 av-1.3-php-5.4-debian-wheezy-64bit.tar.bz2
-rw------- 1 wh33t wh33t   422 Jun 15  2013 av.ini
-rw------- 1 wh33t wh33t 54210 Feb 24  2014 av.so
drwxrwxr-x 2 wh33t wh33t  4096 Dec  6 18:18 downloads
wh33t@Wh33tBox:~$ phpize
Cannot find config.m4.
Make sure that you run '/usr/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module

wh33t@Wh33tBox:~$ sudo phpize
Cannot find config.m4.
Make sure that you run '/usr/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module

Any ideas or tips in the right direction is greatly appreciated. Thanks buds.

My guess is that something went wrong with unpacking.
There are 13 objects in the tarball that I downloaded, one directory and 12 files. (including your missing 'config.m4')

Also, I may be wrong but it seems that good practice would suggest that this tarball should have been unpacked into a directory of it's own rather than unpacking it loosely into ~/

Thanks, I'll try that and report back.

Thanks, I redownloaded it and actually looked up how to untar a tar.bz2 file. Currently going through the install now from source.

I managed to get QB into the system ok. Apache2 started up normally.

But now stuck again. I downloaded the av.so precompiled extension for Ubuntu, copied the contents of av.ini into my php.ini script and then moved the extension to /usr/lib/php5/20121212 and then did sudo php5enmod av.

Now when I try to sudo service apache2 restart I get this:

Code:

wh33t@Wh33tBox:/var/log/apache2$ sudo service apache2 restart
 * Restarting web server apache2                                                               AH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 192.168.1.2. Set the 'ServerName' directive globally to suppress this message
                                                                                        [fail]
 * The apache2 instance did not start within 20 seconds. Please read the log files to discover problems

Any ideas. I checked the logs in /var/logs/apache2/ and there doesn't appear to be Apache start up errors in those scripts.

Code:

wh33t@Wh33tBox:/var/log/apache2$ ls -l
total 1200
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 374948 Dec 18 19:23 access.log

-rw-r----- 1 root adm      0 Dec 18 23:28 error.log

-rw-r----- 1 root adm   3554 Dec  6 19:37 other_vhosts_access.log.1
wh33t@Wh33tBox:/var/log/apache2$

Any ideas where to go from here?

Turns out QB is no longer in development. I hired a local Linux dude to compile it and make it work for me. You guys are so handy in a tight situation!
