Hi.
I requested Inmotion web hosting service to install the media node on my Linux Cent OS 6 server. I require it running so I can install RT Media PRO and the FFMPEG add on.
They were unable to install it. Please help us resolve this issue.
Here is a copy of the reply I received from InMotion tech team:
Hello Scott,
Thank you for contacting us today.
The installation instructions on that site don’t work. Here is the output of the command it says to run:
root@advanced1835 [/opt]# curl -sL https://raw.github.com/rtCamp/media-node/master/install.sh | sudo bash
bash: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token newline' bash: line 1: ’
root@advanced1835 [/opt]# curl -sL https://raw.github.com/rtCamp/media-node/master/install.sh
Bad Request
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
That being said I was able to find the package source here:
I ran into several errors while installing media-node. Most notably in order to compile FFMPEG from the source provided I needed to allow /tmp to be have exec properties. I changed /tmp back to noexec when the installation was finished.
The following errors were displayed at the completion of the install:
TypeError: Object function createServer() {
function app(req, res, next){ app.handle(req, res, next); }
merge(app, proto);
merge(app, EventEmitter.prototype);
app.route = ‘/’;
app.stack = ;
return app;
} has no method ‘static’

The errors appear related to node.js, which is not installed. However, it appears FFMPEG was successfully installed which can be seen here:

I completely exhausted your managed hosting time while doing this investigation + 30 more minutes that I’m filing to research time.
