This document describes the installation of jitsi-meet on a raspberry pi 4. I had lots of trouble combining all those steps into one tutorial. Let me know if you run into problems. The following sites helped me creating this tutorial:
- https://community.jitsi.org/t/jitsi-meet-on-raspberry-pi-4-feasible-or-not/24457/16
- jitsi/docker-jitsi-meet#195
Before we start this guide let's make some assumptions:
- IP: 10.14.70.14
- Hostname: jitsi-meet
- FQDN: meet.something.com
As I am running my jitsi instance behind a Synology (read: nginx) reverse proxy I will not cara about certificates. All the information you need about them can be found here: https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/blob/master/doc/quick-install.md
As for port configuration I redirected port 10000 directly from my router to my Raspberry Pi, port 80 throug my reverse proxy and port 443 (public) to port 4444 on my Raspberry Pi.
- Donwload the Rapsberry Pi imager from https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/
- Put in your SD-Card and choose Ubuntu > Ubuntu 18.04 (Pi 3/4, 64-bit server OS)
- Write the Image to your SD-Card
- After finishing re-insert the SD card and create a file called "ssh" in the boot directory to enable ssh for your first boot.
- Connect to your Raspberry using ssh, in my case
ssh [email protected]. - Ubuntu will require you to change your password on first boot. Choose something secure!
- First become superuser/root
sudo su -- Change the hostname of your system to something you like using
hostnamectl set-hostname jitsi-meetand add your FQDN (optional)nano /etc/hosts.
127.0.0.1 localhost meet.somehting.com
[...]- Reboot your system!
reboot
This part closely reselmbles the steps from https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/blob/master/doc/quick-install.md. It does not contain all the steps as they were not necessary for my setup.
- Add the jitsi repository
echo 'deb https://download.jitsi.org stable/' >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/jitsi-stable.list
wget -qO - https://download.jitsi.org/jitsi-key.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -- Install jitsi-meet
# Ensure support is available for apt repositories served via HTTPS
apt-get install apt-transport-https
# Retrieve the latest package versions across all repositories
apt-get update
# Perform jitsi-meet installation
apt-get install jitsi-meet- At this point you should be able to access the front page of your instance via a web browser. Video conferences will work with two people but not when three or more people are joingin.
- Just in case you are starting from here: become root
sudo su -- Install
openjdk-8-jdk git cmake libtool g++and configureJAVA_HOME
apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk git cmake libtool g++
export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-arm64"- Download the required repositories and copy usrsctp into jitsisctp
git clone https://github.com/sctplab/usrsctp.git
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/mstyura/jitsi-sctp
cd jitsi-sctp
cp -R ../usrsctp usrsctp/usrsctp- Build your custom jnilib and replace the preexisting jar
mvn clean package install -Pbuild-usrsctp -Pbuild-jnisctp -f pom.xml
cp jniwrapper/native/target/jnilib-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar /usr/share/jitsi-videobridge/lib/jnilib-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar- Restart the services
service jicofo restart
service jitsi-videobridge2 restart
service prosody restart
service nginx restart
