Jitsi Setup Help

[TjPhysicist]

I am utterly and completely out of my depth here. Trying to setup Jitsi. I've read every single google result out there that has to do with Jitsi, including http://www.bobeager.uk/jitsi.html . I followed that guide to the T.

Edit Thought it'd be better to just attach all the relevant files and logs. (just the jicofo log, cuz the prosody log is entirely unhelpful). More files. Below.

As mentioned below the main thing in the jicofo log is

Jicofo 2021-07-04 13:54:34.638 SEVERE: [35] org.jitsi.meet.ComponentMain.log() not-authorized, host:home.tj-h.com, port:5347
org.xmpp.component.ComponentException: not-authorized

And on the UX side, the moment i click go it lands me to a page like "fqdn.com/roomname" and says "page not found".

Additionally, is there a way to skip the whole "x.meet.fqdn" thing? I just want ONE URL for everything, the video-meet, the auth everything shd just be meet.tj-h.com or something is that possible?

I haven't seen the error you posted yet, but maybe you want to compare your setup with my guide at https://honeyguide.eu/posts/jitsi-freebsd/ (if you have not yet done so).

While the document you linked to above is excellent and very detailed, maybe my shorter how-to helps.

I would assume you should double check all ports and IP addresses of the various components.

Got it, ok followed your guide and now i'm getting this

Jicofo 2021-07-04 13:54:34.638 SEVERE: [35] org.jitsi.meet.ComponentMain.log() not-authorized, host:home.tj-h.com, port:5347
org.xmpp.component.ComponentException: not-authorized

Have you checked that you have set the correct passwords in the correct places? It is easy to mix up the various different passwords.

yea i triple checked every single password is the same. The odd thing is, doesn't matter whta i do, the symptom hasn't changed even if the errors in the log has: when i try to create a room it says "404 not found".

If you're determined to get this working on FreeBSD, I completely respect that. I've wrestled with this, ultimately with no success.

I just wanted to mention though, in case the underlying OS isn't your priority. Maybe you just need a self-hosted Jitsi Meet server pretty quickly.

Setting up a Jitsi Meet server under Ubuntu Server is a near trivial task. You can be up and running in no time... even if it's just an interim solution. In any case, good luck!

Ooh I should try bhyve then. hopefully that can work?

Anyways, here are the log files. Config files in first post.
