RED5 not loading in the Admin Console

Hi there,

First of all thanks to ignite and Jive members for this awesome tool!

I have Openfire 3.7 server with Spark 2.6 as a client running.

I wanted to get Red5 installed and performed the following step:

  1. Downloaded the plugin(Red5.war) from the beta plugins link - Admin Console doesnt recognize it

  2. Stop the openfire service tried again… still nothing

  3. Downloded a previous version and tried - still no luck

  4. I even tried changing the Http-Bind port but ofcourse no luck since RED5 is not loading

The plugin is not loading in the Admin Console no matter what I do. Do i need to reinstall Openfire?

Here is the log:

Thanks in advance.

The old red5 plugin ONLY works with Openfire 3.6.4 and below. Try the new Redfire plugin

I have the same exact problem, I am using Red5 v 0.1.02 on Openfire 3.7.1 I cant see red5 in the admin console or access it via http://URL:7070/red5. Thought in /opt/openfire/plugins/red5 is there.

But redfire version dont have the sparkweb A/v module where red5 version has it. is possible to run the red5 sparkweb A/v module in openfire 3.7.1?

You are correct. Redfire does not have any support for SparkWeb. Red5 plugin is very old, I would be surprised if it worked in Openfire 3.7.1 without a recompile
