# Quick install for Jitsi Meet on GNU/Linux systems
|
|
|
|
This documents decribes the needed steps for quick Jitsi Meet installation on a Debian based GNU/Linux system.
|
|
|
|
# Add the repository
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
add-apt-repository 'http://download.jitsi.org/nightly/deb unstable/'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
add-apt-repository is in the default Ubuntu install and is available for both Ubuntu and Debian, but if it's not present, either install it with
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
apt-get -y install software-properties-common
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or add the repository by hand with
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
echo 'deb http://download.jitsi.org/nightly/deb trusty unstable/' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Update the package lists
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
apt-get update
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Install Jitsi Meet
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
apt-get -y install jitsi-meet
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
During the installation you'll be asked to enter the hostname of the Jitsi Meet instance. If you have a FQDN hostname for the instance already set ip in DNS, enter it there. If you don't have a resolvable hostname, you can enter the IP address of the machine (if it is static or doesn't change).
|
|
|
|
This hostname (ot IP address) will be used for virtualhost configuration inside the Jitsi Meet and also you and your correspondents will be using it to access the web conferences.
|
|
|
|
# Open a conference
|
|
|
|
Launch a web broswer (Chrome, Chromium or latest Opera) and enter in the URL bar the hostname (or IP address) you used in the previous step.
|
|
|
|
Confirm that you trust the self-signed certificate of the newly installed Jitsi Meet.
|
|
|
|
Enjoy!
