Flash Media Server on Fedora Core 2
March 18th, 2006
I tried getting a Flash Media Server installed on a Fedora Core 2 box. I spent hours figuring out why after running the start script nothing would happen. It wasn’t until I tried running “./fmsmaster” by it self that I got an error back.
./fmsmaster: error while loading shared libraries: libnspr4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Then it took me some google searching to find that the libnspr4.so belongs to the
“mozilla-nspr-1.7.6-1.2.5.i386.rpm” (for fedora core 2 that is).
ES4 required “seamonkey-nspr” to make the libnspr4.so error to go away.
A little yum-ing and it was all better.

i do as you write and got that arror in edge.log
Assert failed in /server/edge/TCEdgeControlTransport.cpp line 180
adminserver works, but fms not :(
any ideas?

I do not know much about the Edge servers. It looks like the error above is something else related to the edge implementation.

I had the same problem (’assert failed…’). The solution is to upgrade your linux kernel to 2.6.8. I now have a working FMS2 on Debian!

Yes, to fix the assert problem you guys need to
install a newer 2.6.x Linux kernel - see this page:
http://dev.gemin-i.org/wiki/index.php/Flash_Media_Server
And in general to check which libs are needed -
run “ldd fmsmaster” and look for “not found”.

Thanks for the “ldd fmsmaster” I tried it on a ES 4 and everything checked out.
