How To: Install Red5 [Hosting Red5]

[sam79]

hi
I 've installed red5-0.6.3 on widows xp, when I'm trying to start the red5 service I got this error:
INFO | jvm 1 | 2008/12/08 10:55:38 | at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619)
STATUS | wrapper | 2008/12/08 10:55:40 | <-- Wrapper Stopped
when I press a key to continue, red5 runs but it doesn't work with rtmpt.
I resolve the red5 with ant:

> ant build.xml
but I got this:
C:\Program Files\Red5>ant build.xml
Buildfile: build.xml
[echo] java.home is C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_10\jre and the target ve
rsion is 1.6

BUILD FAILED
Target "build.xml" does not exist in the project "RED5".

please please someone help me. I'm really get tired of red5!!

Hi Sam79,

You have installed red5 on your Windows XP machine, and we use Linux servers. Our support is limited in this case.

thanks Jeff
I tried to install red5 on debian but I encounterd the same problem, I mean red5 server started but it didn't work with rtmpt. and when I navigate to administration interface and login I just get a white page.
I've installed red5_0.7.0 and sun-java5

when I start the red5 service I got this exception
debian:/home/ehsani/Desktop/red5# /usr/lib/red5/red5.sh start &
[2] 30106
debian:/home/ehsani/Desktop/red5# Starting Red5...
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/red5/server/Standalone

any help would be appreciated

sam79....those instructions are for CentOS server that hostv uses here. CentOS is a Redhat branch.

Yeah - I get you there, especially since HostV claims that Red5 comes pre-installed and configured, why would they have to post instructions?
