Back up for ostube



How do I create a complete backup of my osTube installation?
This tutorial explains how to create a complete backup of an existing osTube installation. All data sets as well as the database are saved. To get started, go to the admin area and activate the maintenance mode under settings. Now it is impossible to upload new media. .

* Now login at the server as root via SSH

* Copy the data sets:
o Create a directory for the backup with
# mkdir ostube_backup
o Copy all data with
# cp -av /ort/meines/ostube /root/ostube-backup (obtains all rights and origins)

* Create backup of the database (mysqldump)
o Open the directory /root/ostube_backup:
# cd /root/backup

o oCreate the MySQL-dump:
# mysqldump -u databankuser -p --opt databankname > dumpdatasetname

* To rollback the backup:
o Open /root/ostube_backup

o Input the databank with:
# mysql -u dbuser -p databankname < dumpdatasetname
# insert password

o Data rollback:
# cp -a * /ort/meines/ostube

Centos net install versi 5.3

Streamming testing server like youtube at home.

Home / the author's lab has several computers connected in a network. And also because most of the media machine has a small storage capacity. And only has 1 piece of hard disk storage media that have a large capacity. And also because i have many file movie, such as VTC (Video Trainning), movie theaters, video clips, n, etc., it is not effective if the author wanted to transfer files to watch first, and then watching. Very, very not effective.

So the author tried several similar web application streamming "youtube".

In the first testing time OS used is debian lenny. With minimal installation.

Using fluxbox desktop. Lighter and faster than KDE or GNOME.

3 times the experiment using debian lenny server continues to fail to make the streaming server. That is because the rigidity debian license issue. So that the extra energy needed to installations.

Many tutorials are available on the Internet has been tried, but it still failed miserably. Alias not 100% going according to the author wishes.

Start from the code image display does not come out until the uploaded videos or images that failed because of an error message saying the security problems in Apache, and in addition many more errors are found.

So then the author tried to use linux CentOS 5.3. but the problem is obtained following.

* there are 2 computers. Laptop with ubuntu OS. One child debian derivative. 8:04 hardy version. The problem is on the CD ROM that has been damaged on the laptop. And P4 desktop computer. Which only has a CD ROM drive. Not DVD ROM.
* CentOS OS version is still a version of DVD ISO files.
* Limited hard drive.


Then the authors try to use the following way.

* Centos 5.3 install netinstall installer into CD R on desktop computers.
* create a Web server on a laptop computer. And extract the full Centos installer file to the server iso.
* Give IP to a laptop computer.


How to installation on my laptop.

* Create a web server in the laptop
* extract the full CentOS install on my laptop and put it up in the directory "/home/user/public_html" or in "/var/ www" With a note if using the "www" should be used in apache.conf enable it.
* Extract iso fle, the author uses fuirios.


how to istall net install on desktop

* Boot your desktop PC using the net install CentOS.
* Navigate to the HTTP/FTP servers depending on the make. In this case the author uses the HTTP server. So the choice is "HTTP".
* Assign IP address to a laptop computer. And directories to a place where the CentOS iso extract. Eg "centos/". So let's say the address where the laptop is in the directory "/home/user/public_html/centos", and addresses from the web server is 192.168.1.65 so that the web browser will be as follows addressnya "http://192.168.1.65/~user/centos/". So the write address "192.168.1.65/~user", and the directory is written "centos". Then OK.
* Then the installation would be like using a CD ROM installed. Follow it until the end penginstallanya way.


When finished, it would be easier if the installation using yum. However, if you use yum, then we have to connect to the Internet. It's annoying we reply no internet connection. While the laptop will not always harun standby. So how??

The first step copy all the files in the installer to the local computer. And make one of the directory where the files are.

Suppose the directory is created is "centos".

$ Mkdir /home/user/public_html/centos

why should in the directory "public_html". The author wrote to make fun of these directories. With the goal can be used if it will make a server on the net-install for centos.


Here are the contents of the file "/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo".

Add "baseurl = the directory where the full copyan CentOS installer". And front Uncomment "mirrorlist" so that if yum on the run did not seek to mirror.

then when you finish the test used command "yum update".

=== Begin from here ===

[root @ stream lib] # yum update

if no errors then it could be in penginstallannya continue.

Using yum far better than if done with penginatallan rpm. Because when using rpm, then we'll knock a considerable problem meribetkan dependencies.

If using yum. So the problem can be minimized dependencies.

Manual can be done using yum with the command "man yum", or "yum-h".
