That’s all
Thanks.
Hi @LayLow
I can confirm this. Here is it not possible to get access to a conference.
When i click the button “Connect to Conference” a small white comes up for a half second and nothing will go on.
Thanks, I’m working on it…
It was due to cleaning up, I removed the jitsi hostnames, they were still in the cache when testing so I didn’t recognze.
I’m also going to change the UDP port to not conflict with NethVoice, then testing once more and then hopefully I can release it.
EDIT:
Finally released.
I tested a conference using 3 devices, PC and 2 mobiles and audio/video worked. 1 mobile connected from external, the other one and the PC internal.
I tested on an NS8 behind NethSecurity using
- reverse proxy to NS8, cert on NethSec, 9999/udp port forwarded
- cert on NS8, both ports 443/tcp and 9999/udp forwarded
Hopefully it works now…
After trying multiple podman network approaches I finally found a variable to set the connection URL to 127.0.0.1 and so no DNS lookup was done anymore and it worked.
XMPP_BOSH_URL_BASE=http://127.0.0.1:5280
You are the best…
I will check it later after the work.
It does for me. Congrats on another great NS8 app. Well done!
Weldone @mrmarkuz great work on bringing ldap authentication to the Jitsi App
FYI
can the internal Ldap users, who started a call, also invite non internal users?
Yes. Start the meeting and turn on ‘wait in lobby’ in the meeting settings . Then share the invite link with anybody. Once they enter, the starter of the meeting needs to approve the guest to come in.
HTH
Obviously we need to ‘bug’ @mrmarkuz with our ‘kid in a candystore’ attitude… ![]()
These would be very nice to have:
@LayLow do you by any chance use ejabberd and any other XMPP protocals?
No, I don’t. A quick search on jitsi and ejabberd shows a lot of articles that the integration is not trivial
Not that i am asking for the integration, However, from what i can see from reading, and researching about the problems, most of the problems that make Jitsi and ejabberd integration non trivial have already technically been resolved and implemented within NS8 context.
So within NS8, its possible to Achieve it. We however have a number of things not directly exposed by NS8 ejabberd
XMPP_DOMAIN=yourdomain.com
XMPP_BOSH_URL_BASE=http://127.0.0.1:5280
XMPP_AUTH_DOMAIN=auth.yourdomain.com
Just checking, you did notice the build in chat function that simply works? Basedon https://prosody.im/
True, as stated before, not that i am specifically asking for it, however it would Offer.
1. Persistent Chat Beyond Meetings
- Jitsi’s built-in chat is tied to active video calls. Once a meeting ends, chat history vanishes.
- ejabberd provides a full-fledged XMPP chat server: persistent messaging, contact lists, offline messages, and even file transfers.
3. Access Control
- Leverage LDAP groups in ejabberd to manage chat room permissions, broadcast messages, or define roles.
- Combine that with Jitsi’s lobby and moderation features for tight access control over voice/video.
yeah, prosody works, since its what comes by default with Jitsi, and hey, simple is better, intergated is sweater
Also came accross this: https://prose.org/
I added customization options to the README: GitHub - mrmarkuz/ns8-jitsi
Tried it out and found it to be very good.
@transocean can you share what you did please? Example files maybe?
TIA
Hi @LayLow
First, I restored the NS8 VM from a backup to the point in time before the botched update. Then the update was installed today and the LDAP domain was stored in the Jitsi settings. And then I started a conference with three clients, authenticated myself as the moderator and sent two invitations to the other clients. The connection and login to the video conference worked without any problems. Unfortunately, however, I always have the problem that the connection to the server drops after five minutes.
Hmm…,
unfortunately the connection drops regularly after about 3 minutes, which is repeated after every new dial-up. Tested with Firefox, Edge and the Jitsi app on my egg phone. In the logs I see the message “Received request to expire conference.”
