hi there,
Can you login to the admin console? with the username that you have invited?

Double check you Base URL works for everyone. As the URL gets sent out is you based on your Base URL. If you Base URL is only usable from inside your network. Then anyone outside you Network wont be able to access your Web Conference.

Thanks

The same thing happened to me, I tried to access The URL from deferent PCs but can't entered the room I sets it ……???

Here is what I am encountering (I will try to be as descriptive as possible)

I was running Elastix 2.0. I did a YUM update to 2.2

I was really looking forward to the new Web Conference version with 2.2, which is why I decided to upgrade.

Well, as the earlier posts indicate, after loading the add-on module successfully, you can setup a conference, and it does get sent out to everyone. The email does send the correct URL (in my case the URL is for only the INTERNAL network, and it is correct as I can access the admin pages), so the URL it sends is HTTPS://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX.conference.php. (where the XXX are my representation of my actual IP address, I just used the 'x' to block for this post)

At any rate, when you click on the link in the email, or I attempt to type the URL, the page that loads is BLANK. Meaning it doesn't load anything, nor is there any error (404, page not found, etc) its just blank. I suspect something with the PHP script, but again, I did upgrade from YUM.

Is anyone having any issues if they load Elastix fresh from the ISO CD-ROM?

AT any rate, it is not a URL address issue and more than likely a scripting issue with PHP.

Thoughts?

That is way off from a simple issue with the base URL not being public accessible. I am still pretty new to Elastix. However I Personally would un-install the plug-in. Run yum upgrade and make sure everything is up to date. Then install the plug-in again. Sometimes just reinstalling things fixes problems like this.

Thanks

I have found where this has been reported as a bug with Elastix.

I am not so new to Elastix/Asterisk... or PHP. This is certainly a parsing issue within PHP. The error log from the apache server indicates an unknown variable within the conference.php file. When I compared this to the previous version of Elastix (2.0), the php files were the same.

I suspect there is something with the PHP updates that occurred at the same time the YUM update was applied.

I have attempted to uninstall the module, yum update, and reinstall.... sorry but it still does the same thing, with the same errors in the SSL_ERROR log file within var/www/html

So, I will track this bug with Elastix support and go from there.

In case anyone wants to see it, the bug is reported here

http://bugs.elastix.org/view.php?id=1120

Hi,

Has anyone successfully managed to get the webconf working in Elastix yet? I too have it installed with the invitations being sent by email but when visiting the webpage to login to the conference I am met with a blank screen.

The /var/log/httpd/ssl_error_log shows a problem with the php:

[Tue Dec 27 21:34:01 2011] [error] [client XX.X.XXX.XXX] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function cargar_menu() in /var/www/html/conference.php on line 87

Line 87 of conference.php contains:

$arrMenu = cargar_menu($pDBMenu) ;

Not being a PHP programmer is there anything obviously wrong with that line?

I have tried both the 32 & 64 bit latest ISO and have the problem in both versions.

Any help to get it up and running would be appreciated. As would letting me know what version of Elastix you are using if you do have it working.

Thanks

I managed to make the webconference work by commenting out /var/www/html/conference.php at line 87 arrMenu = cargar_menu($pDBMenu);

The blank screen is gone however the video is not showing on. I can have remote participants see my pages and I can see theirs.

The Video frame is empty. If someone can help....

Regards

Wane

 

[ricsne2010]

Can you help us who are not quite up to speed, how did you "comment out" the line in the conference.php file?

Also, as far as I can recall from the RC1 version, you need to turn on your video codecs' using the unembedded freePBX interface. I think they are both tied together.... They should not be, but its worth a shot, I had mine setup that way, but that was for device to device video calls...

Thanks

 

[FreshConnexions]

Simply place an asterisk at the beginning of the line

#$arrMenu = cargar_menu($pDBMenu) ;

Could you explain how you turned on the video codecs in FreePBX? i have the video screen visible and it asks me for permission to access my webcam but no image is displayed, possibly a codec problem?

 

[Abdoul]

Finally (A relief !!!Ouf) .The video is working now on the web conf. elastix-red5 process was not started.
Check if it runs first : ps -ef | grep red5
If it's not running type (from /etc/init.d directory):./elastix-red5 start.

Good luck

 

[alshater]

Stil Blank page !!!!!!!!!!

 

[binbash1978]

Saw this in another forum .. i hope it helps .. .

Resolved the following:

from the root directory go to:

/var/www/html/conference.php

conference.php modify the file line 87, by inserting a # at the beginning, for comment

would look like:

#$arrMenu=cargar_menu($pDBMenu)

There are three different issues, as mentioned here.

1: If you did a "Yummy" upgrade, then search for problem with "Blank pages" after upgrade. A question was asked previously about webconf working from fresh install of new stable version, the answer is Yes. I experienced issues with setting up box and doing the yummy thingee, it had issues, so I did a fresh install and all worked well.

2: when doing the "elastix-red5 start" it returns a value of "command not found". I show it through grep, so I tried a restart and a reload and all comes back as "command not found". I still have no video Even though the webconf asked that the web site is trying to use web cam and I click on "accept", still nothing. I'm thinking there may be a "port" issue with my router. Maybe I need to have a certain port (if I knew which port) opened or forwarded.

3: As long as I am using it on internal network I can gain access to the web portal by clicking on "enter conference" link, but if I try from the outside of network does not work as the enter conference link does not have my dyndns.org url, it has my internal network url, so for some that will have to be changed. I have to figure ut how to manually change how it retreives that url as I'm sure others will need that changed also.

Other than that, it works like a charm, listing/displaying any documents and texting, etc...

We all need to figure how to get this webconf modified so that we can set up the software to start at a preset time, meaning that we need the ability to set up several web confrences and setting a time that they will start/stop. As it is now, as soon as I set up the conference it send notices right away, if I'm not going to do the conference right a way then as it is now I have to wait to send the notice when I'm ready. A pre-set time function would be a great addition to this software.

Thanks

Particulary I have no video, and the browser don´t pompted me to allow the use of the camera. But I receive the invitation to join the conference, and i can login to the elastix server, but the video window it´s empty.

Any Help, please?

Re: Re:Web Conference v2.2.0-1

The correct way tu start/restart red5 service is:

In /sbin service elastix-red5 restart
