BigBlueButton only supports Ubuntu distros however it is possible to install it on almost any linux distro using docker. Here is the instruction I use to install it on Centos 8 :
# Installing docker
yum-config-manager --add-repo https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/docker-ce.repo
dnf module enable container-tools
dnf install container-selinux
dnf module disable container-tools
yum install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.27.3/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
mkdir -p ~/.docker
##### ONLY IF YOU NEED TO USE A PROXY FOR DOCKER CONTAINERS
echo '{
{
"proxies":
{
"default":
{
"httpProxy": "http://X:Y",
"httpsProxy": "http://X:Y",
"noProxy": "216.93.246.18, YOURDOMAIN, YOURIP, localhost, 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16, 127.0.0.1, 0.0.0.0, postgres, etherpad, html5, webrtc-sfu, core, host.docker.internal"
}
}
}
' \
> ~/.docker/config.json
###
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable docker --now
# Install bbb-docker
cd /usr/src
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/alangecker/bigbluebutton-docker.git bbb-docker
cd bbb-docker
./scripts/setup
./scripts/compose up -d
and finally proxy requests to your web server . Note that you need to forward requests to 127.0.0.1:8080 and not the IP address of greenlight vm.
