It works for me... in part.

I'm on Debian 10 Buster.

First, "service prosody status" complains about "portmanager: Error binding encrypted port for https: No certificate present in SSL/TLS configuration for https port 5281"
I found a possible solution for this at discourse.diasporafoundation.org/t... - apparently the .cfg.lua file needs further editing.

Going on, I can become a moderator for a room.

In the room, participants can chat with each other.

However, the participants can't get audio or video from each other.

"tail -f /var/log/jitsi/jvb.log" shows me a SEVERE: [18] RecurringRunnableExecutor.run#230: The invocation of the method org.jitsi.videobridge.health.Health.run() threw an exception.
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class org.jitsi.videobridge.sctp.SctpManager

Does anybody else here get the same on Debian 10 Buster or has a suggestion for me?

and thanks a lot Andrea, especially for remarking that "the Coronavirus spreads" and "one of the most critical thing for many is to be able to keep in touch with family, friends and colleagues." This is the part of your article that helps me the most, it is so appropriate.

Hi @ernestotorresin other people mentioned issues with Debian ( look for the reply from @josefhavel8 that might be helpful).
I strongly suggest though to check on the official forum where is more likely to find other people with the same issues and hopefully with a solution!

Yes, it looks like it works eventually.
For me the files to change compared to the standard installation on Debian 10 Buster were the ones proposed, plus /etc/jitsi/videobridge/config with the JVB_OPTS="--apis=xmpp,rest".
No need to go for the nightly builds.
However, I had to REBOOT the system a couple of times to remove stale configurations still showing up in the logs: this is the only CAVEAT so far.

Thanks a lot!
