Kaltura Installed but can NOT access admin console

41

Thanks, now all seems good, i have 4 questions to complete start a fully functional kaltura package:

  • how to make kaltura rely on MaxCDN as it’s CDN
  • how to make kaltura rely on Amazon S3 as it’s storage
  • How to limit the bandwidth for a specific publisher?
  • is there a description for the settings of the admin console? especially the “add new publisher” and “profiles”?

Hi @JohnMalcom,

Please see my explanation about remote storage and delivery profiles here:

As for bandwidth limitation, see my reply here:

The Admin Console’s “Add New Publisher” form calls partner->register(), see https://developer.kaltura.com/api-docs/Secure_Control_and_Govern/partner/partner_register

The “Service Edition Type” is only meant for reporting/accounting purposes, same as “Class of Service” and "Vertical Classification"
The “Template Partner ID” selectbox only has one value by default but if you make the partner->register() API call directly, you can pass any existing partner as a template. This can be a powerful mechanism for cloning settings and content for different partner types.
If no templatePartnerId is passed as a parameter to the register action, the default behaviour is to clone content from partner 99 [which is a system partner created during deployment time] and different configuration profiles [delivery, storage, etc] from partner 0, likewise created during the deployment.

Thanks Jess, Would you please help what to insert in the fields requested when creating a new S3 storage? it requires username and password, but i’m not sure its related to the owner account, we use a key for backups using WHM anyway.

Please advise.

Also when using a SFTP as external storage, uploading a movie then click on preview, it didn’t work and this is the url that doesn’t work

http://abcdomain.com/p/101/sp/10100/playManifest/entryId/0_e26zq5d8/flavorIds/0_5au6caf5,0_j6wbqk75/format/applehttp/protocol/http/a.m3u8?referrer=aHR0cDovL2xvY2FsaG9zdA==&playSessionId=146c187f-91eb-e02e-4137-7028f87

not sure why it is requesting “protocol/http/a.m3u8” however i have enabled a delivery profile and added a random url, but not reflected.

btw i have added the SFTP and working well.

Now i don’t understand the below:

  • when i should use “Drop Folders”
  • how to use a “CDN” url to replace all the live links with a CDN one, specially the ones embeded inside the player html5 code (that will be shared with a website owner to insert the code in his website).

I have to add that, the videos is uploaded to the ftp in just 1 file, not separate, i thought kaltura will send the transcoded ones, .m3u3 and .ts files - so this is correct? it should send the files to our ftp like that?
