Dennis,

Not sure what the issue is. I did this one over a year ago. I’ve used the Raspbian Os (https://www.raspbian.org/) as far as I can recall.

I think I follow this very carefully but in the end when I:

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ node webrtc_signal_server.js

I get:
node: /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20′ not found (required by node)
node: /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.16′ not found (required by node)

I did:

sudo apt-get install libstdc++6

and got:
libstdc++6 is already the newest version.

What to do???
Thanks

That’s not a little work but rather a lot of work.

This is the closest publicly available article I know that deals with it: http://www.rs-online.com/designspark/electronics/blog/building-a-raspberry-pi-2-webrtc-camera

Thanks for the post. The code works perfectly. Is it possible to add few lines of code in the existing code you can give so that, the raspberry pi also joins the webrtc session. So that someone sitting infront of the raspberry pi with the microphone, speakers and camera attached to raspberry pi can also join the Chat?

Thanks for the tutorial.
It worked first try 🙂

One hint for step 5:
`npm install websocket`
creates a folder “node_modules” in the current folder. Would be better to `cd getting_started_with_webrtc` first.

When you are in the `getting_started_with_webrtc` folder you can also run `npm install`
witch will install all dependences for you. So you don’t need the “manualy” install the websocket module.

You’ll need a public IP for your signaling server if you wish to be able to route calls to it. You may also need to connect to an external TURN server.

The idea of this post was just to show that it is easy to get this up and running. Production is a bit harder 🙂

appreciate the effort made here, even i can install a WebRTC server now, WOW !

So i got it working allright locally behind the home gateway, but not from the internet. Mmm, portforwarding did not bring the success i had hoped for though. Do i have to change settings somewhere else?

i would like to name the session to a roomnme of my choice, does anybody have a sample for that?

thx,
richard

i would suggest PuttY (older, works perfectly, open) to ssh on windows instead of bitvise (commercial crap, closed source i would never trust), just my 2 cent
