Re: RTMPDump - how do I compile source code in Linux like Ubuntu?

What am I doing wrong here? I have OpenSSL installed.

crossleyd@VMU:~/rtmpdump$ make rtmpdump

TO ALL WHO HAVE THIS ERROR

Code:

rtmpdump: error while loading shared libraries: librtmp.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

when you have installed rtmpdump, you should enter the librtmp directory and make a couple of steps:
1. make
2. sudo cp librtmp.so.0 /lib

so, thats it!

p.s. btw, you should enter SYS=posix, not SYS=linux

#13 01-04-2011, 03:37 AM

Just compiled rtmpdump from SVN in Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick:

Install the tools needed for accessing the code and compilation:

Code:

sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc make subversion libssl0.9.8 libssl-dev libssl0.9.8

Check out the latest code from the Subversion repository:
Code:
```
svn co svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/rtmpdump rtmpdump
```
Code:
```
cd rtmpdump
cd trunk
```
Code:
```
make
```

And use the following to install:

Code:

sudo make install

Please correct me if something is wrong in my steps.

Hi all!
I'm quite a fan of RTMPDump as it allows me to schedule the download of my favourite live streams and watch them when I have the time for them, with a little program I made.

In some cases when an error was thrown RTMPDump2.3 does not close the window (specifically when recv receives -1) so I needed to modify librtmp to suit my needs.
Although the README file on the source package is quite helpful it seems it is a bit outdated, so here is a guide to compile RTMPDump with the current release.

Here is my experience with compiling RTMPDump2.3 with Ubuntu Maverick.
First compile I compiled for linux to see if all is ok.
Download and install OpenSSL:

Code:

wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz
tar xvzf openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz
cd openssl-1.0.0d
./config
make
sudo make install

Download and install libz:

Code:

wget http://zlib.net/zlib-1.2.5.tar.gz
tar xvzf zlib-1.2.5.tar.gz
cd zlib-1.2.5
./configure
make
sudo make install

go to cd rtmpdump-2.3 directory and edit Makefile line

Code:

LIB_OPENSSL=-lssl -lcrypto

to

Code:

LIB_OPENSSL=-lssl -lcrypto -ldl

finally make the project

Code:

make INC=-I/usr/local/ssl/include/ LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib

If all goes ok, you'll get the rtmpdump binary built!

Having the linux version built I started the adventure of cross compiling it for windows
So I extracted the rtmpdump-2.3 tgz to another folder, rtmpdump-2.3Win in order not to screw up the linux built version

Code:

 wget http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/download/rtmpdump-2.3.tgz
tar xvzf rtmpdump-2.3.tgz rtmpdump-2.3Win
cd rtmpdump-2.3Win/

PS-the svn version didn't compile, use the tzg version!

To cross compile anything for windows you need mingw32 which you get with the command

Code:

sudo apt-get install mingw32

Then configure the openSSL for windows

Code:

wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz
tar xvzf openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz
cd openssl-1.0.0d
./Configure mingw --prefix=`pwd`/win32libs -DL_ENDIAN -DOPENSSL_NO_HW  --cross-compile-prefix=i586-mingw32msvc-
make

Get zlib already compiled for windows (less hassle this way)

Code:

wget http://zlib.net/zlib125-dll.zip
unzip zlib125-dll.zip
cd lib
cp zdll.lib libz.a

Then issue this magic command, where you should replace

-I/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/openssl-1.0.0d/include/ for the path where the openssl includes are located (ssl.h, rc4.h, etc).

-I/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/include/ for the path where the zlib includes are located (zlib.h, zconf.h)

-L/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/openssl-1.0.0d/ with the path that leads you to the newly built windows libs libcrypto.a and libssl.a

-L/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/lib for the path of your extracted libz.a.

Code:

make SYS=mingw INC="-I/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/openssl-1.0.0d/include/ -I/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/include/ -I/usr/i586-mingw32msvc/include/ -I/usr/local/include/" LDFLAGS="-L/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/openssl-1.0.0d/ -L/usr/i586-mingw32msvc/lib/ -L/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/lib" XCFLAGS="-DWIN32 -D_WIN32" CROSS_COMPILE=i586-mingw32msvc-

et voila you get a brand new rtmpdump.exe

to test it on linux do

Code:

sudo apt-get install wine
wine rtmpdump

and you'll get the marvelous strings:

Code:

RTMPDump v2.3 Mod BirdOfPrey
(c) 2010 Andrej Stepanchuk, Howard Chu, The Flvstreamer Team; license: GPL
Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.
Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.
err:systray:initialize_systray Could not create tray window
fixme:toolhelp:CreateToolhelp32Snapshot Unimplemented: heap list snapshot
fixme:toolhelp:Heap32ListFirst : stub
ERROR: You must specify a hostname (--host) or url (-r "rtmp://host[:port]/playpath") containing a hostname

To put it working on windows you need to put rtmpdump.exe, librtmp.dll and zlib1.dll in the same folder.

Have fun compiling RTMPDump!

While looking for a solution to the same problem as you guys "handshake.h:67:2: error: #error Your OpenSSL is too old, need 0.9.8 or newer with SHA256" rtmpdump 2.3 apparently is not recognizing openssl1.0.0d as higher version than the minimum req. 0.9.8.

I'm have an iMac with OS X 10.5.8 and a Snow Leopard dualbooted macbookpro (both 10.6.6 [stable] + 10.6.7 [beta]), on both machine and all 3 OS versions I get the same error. The reason I specifically quoted the above was that I though trying the same edit on the makefile

Code:

LIB_OPENSSL=-lssl -lcrypto -ldl

would make the problem go away, but it didn't.

So any help will be appreciated. Also, even though you use Linux, it doesn't make a difference, because both linux and mac os ar based on Unix, which means the comandline/terminal is the same.

//Dave

UPDATE: I currently have rtmpdump 2.2 installed via macports,
but the reason to manually build directly from src of "rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu" is because the port for it hasn't been updated to v2.3 yet.
So for me i cannot currently use macports to update it. Also, both openssl and zlib are installed in their latest version, so that can't be why it fails to build.

"SYS=posix" is the default in the Makefile so there's actually no need to set it explicitly. But for consistency, if you're going to specify it, you should also set it on the "make install" command.

No, unfortunately MacOSX is NOT the same as every other Unix system. That's why the README says to use "make SYS=darwin" on MacOSX.

You can't just go typing random stuff in here. If you don't know how to compile software on your OS, go learn how. MacOSX has no libdl, so of course randomly adding "-ldl" to a Makefile variable won't fix any of your problems. It would only cause more problems. If you don't understand what that sentence meant, you need to go learn more before you're ready to build this.

make INC=-I/usr/local/ssl/include/ LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib

This is the key step. If you installed a private copy of OpenSSL, you have to tell where that copy resides, and this is how it's done. If you don't get these paths right, then the compiler will only find the old version of OpenSSL that's in your default system location, and that's why you still get the complaint that your OpenSSL is too old even though you installed a newer one.

It would have been sufficient just to use

Code:

apt-get install libssl-dev

Note that most distros provide OpenSSL built with shared libraries. If you want to build it yourself, you should have used

Code:

./config shared

And then you would not have needed to add "-ldl" to LIB_OPENSSL.
Generally if you're on Linux and you think that you need to edit the Makefile, you're doing something wrong.

hyc tkx very much for the tips! I didn't know I had to use the shared library version of openssl, I just fixed the issues as they came along

Although the modded version I did works as expected, now exiting in a specific error that rtmpdump gives, I think it's not very normal for this to happen, as this problem is happening too often now. I'll post the problem in main forum.
