Tutorial: How to install Tuber on Ubuntu Server Latest
Tuber is an open-source self-hosted video chat system, which allows users to create rooms and have video conferences with others. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Tuber on Ubuntu Server Latest.
Prerequisites
Before installing Tuber, make sure that you have the following prerequisites on your Ubuntu Server Latest:
- Apache web server installed and running.
- MySQL server installed and running.
- PHP version 5.6 or higher installed.
- Redis cache server installed and running.
Step 1: Download Tuber
The first step is to download the Tuber package from the official website. You can download the latest version of Tuber from the following link:
https://github.com/trailofbits/tuber/releases/latest
Download the package and extract it to a directory where you want to install Tuber.
Step 2: Create a MySQL Database
Next, we need to create a MySQL database for Tuber. You can create a new database using the following command:
mysql -u root -p
Enter your MySQL root password, then execute the following commands inside the MySQL shell to create a new database:
CREATE DATABASE tuber;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON tuber.* TO 'tuberuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'yourpassword';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;
Remember to replace 'yourpassword' with a strong and secure password.
Step 3: Configure Tuber
Now, we need to configure Tuber with your MySQL database credentials. Navigate to the directory where you extracted the Tuber package and edit the config.php file:
cd /path/to/tuber/
sudo nano config.php
Edit the following lines with your MySQL database credentials:
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('DB_NAME', 'tuber');
define('DB_USER', 'tuberuser');
define('DB_PASS', 'yourpassword');
Save and close the file.
Step 4: Install Composer
Composer is a dependency manager for PHP, and we need to install it to run Tuber. Run the following commands to install Composer:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
Step 5: Install Dependencies and Run Tuber
Now, we need to install the dependencies required by Tuber using Composer. Run the following command:
composer install
This will install all the required dependencies for Tuber. Once the installation is complete, you can start Tuber by running the following command:
php bin/run.php
You can now access Tuber by opening your web browser and entering the following URL:
http://yourserverip:8080
You will see the Tuber login page. Enter your username and password that you set in the config.php file earlier, and you will be logged in to the Tuber dashboard.
Conclusion
Tuber is now installed on your Ubuntu Server Latest. You can create video chat rooms and invite others to join. Enjoy self-hosted video conferencing with Tuber!
