Thanks for the extra pair of eyes. |

@g33kex just out of curiosity, how did you end up here? :D |
You are not the only one here 😝 |
I've been using https://github.com/ebbba-org/ansible-role-bigbluebutton for a while before it was split with ebbba-org/ansible-role-bigbluebutton#272 so I'm guessing the development of the greenlight part of the role continues here? |
|
Ahhhh makes sense. Yes I recently had the need again for a custom deployed greenlight that's why I started the work on this repo again. Nice to have you on board. |
|
I'm trying to install this along side the bigbluebutton server on the same host like the old role did, but it doesn't quite work out yet. This role seems to creates a new conflicting nginx config instead of adding a new virtual host. |
|
Hmmm yes understandable. I have no information about your setup tho, we mostly have clusters with load balancers and only need one greenlight. |

Shouldn't this be greenlight_endpoint_name? I think that's what was causing an issue on my end, since ansible_host is not necessarily the hostname of the greenlight endpoint. There is the same problem line 14.

If you tested this with another solution and it works for you please suggest a change.

I don't see the difference between greenlight_hostname that you added to setup the https certificates and the greenlight_endpoint_name that was already used in env.j2 I think these two are the same and refer to the hostname of the greenlight endpoint. I'll make an issue and a pull request later for that and add that same hostname to the nginx config.

Is there any way already to use this role to install greenlight on the same host as bigbluebutton. I also have a v2.3 setup running which I somehow have to upgrade, but the split makes it a bit confusing. Or is there any other good greenlight role out there? I didn't really find one… |
|
@toabi This could work on the same host (not tested but you could do/test that :) ) but in a now days setup you split BBB and Greenlight separate instances. Because you want to have BBB instances to be independent. If you want some further insights we could also start a private chat and I could go more into detail about best practice hosting of BBB. :) |

Well, I don't need a huge setup. I now use the ansible role to create the basic BBB server setup and just installed greenlight by following the manual. It was easy enough and all the state is the .env file and the postgres db. Just moved it all to a new server. One thing which somehow doesn't work properly in the ansible bbb role is a change of the hostname. Somehow it doesn't really work until manually doing a In the future I'd probably like to run my greenlight in our kubernetes cluster but as there's not really a popular helm chart yet I'll wait for it :D Thanks for the offer, but for now all works well enough. |
