    you can always install the CCcam/oscam package and just use CCcam


    I have Oscam and Cccam working nicely on my ubuntu server but I was thinking of switching to Oscam only (better cache,groups etc)


    Can I use this current setup and just disable CCcam by setting it to listen on an unused port or is it more complicated than that ?
    Many thanks


    Edit :
    thatfellows post here seems to detail what to do
    http://linuxsat-support.com/li…ackage-16.html#post126527


    On another note I am getting an error with Proftpd when the server boots up.
    Proftpd : warning cannot start neither in standalone nor in inetd/xinetd mode .
    Its not listed in webmin either.
    Apache also seems to be giving some error.


    I am not sure I need either of these to be running anyway,I can login fine with winscp .

    Everything is working ok no apart from ProFTPD warning: cannot start neither in standalone nor in inetd/xinetd mode. (this is from the automated script) can anyone assist?


    proftpd automatically installs other packages during the initial install so when you remove proftpd you will be left with:
    "proftpd-basic proftpd-mod-pgsql proftpd-mod-mysql proftpd-mod-ldap"
    proftpd-basic is the culprit for the init scripts..


    To completely remove proftpd use the wildcard with purge


    Code
    apt-get purge proftpd-*


    I will be updating the script in the near future and I will remove proftpd from the auto-install as it is not necessary for day to day running of a CS Server..

    Here is the 32bit version of this script for Ubuntu 12.04...
    linuxsat-support.com/cms/attachment/10048/


    Tested on clean install 32 Bit 12.04, follow the tut above.


    good Luck


    I think the CCcam check script in the 32 bit version is incorrect.


    It seems to reference CCcam.x86_64 but should it not be CCcam.x86 ?


    #!/bin/sh
    process=`ps auxwww | grep CCcam.x86_64 | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'`
    if [ -z '$process' ]; then
    echo "Couldn't find CCcam.x86_64 running. Restarting server-binary" >> /var/cccamlog/cccam.check
    echo && date >>/var/cccamlog/cccam.check
    /usr/local/bin/CCcam.x86_64 -d >> /var/cccamlog/CCcam.log &
    else echo "CCcam.x86_64 is still OK!" >> /var/cccamlog/cccam.check
    fi

    No, they are correct.
    I named the bin files CCcam.x86_64 in both the x32 & x64 auto-install so the scripts would work in both and people could swap between x32 & x64 cccam..

    From what I can see the 32 bit install script references CCcam.x86 only


    Quote

    echo "moving CCcam.x86 executable to correct folder"
    mv /tmp/cccamoscam_install_package/CCcam.x86 /usr/local/bin
    chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/CCcam.x86


    It installs CCcam.x86 correctly


    The CCcam check script references CCcam.x86_64 but as this isnt installed the check script is checking nothing so it says the same thing every 5 minutes



    When I change the CCcam check script to reference CCcam.x86 it works correctly though.


    Hope I am making sense .

    OK M8, thanks for pointing this out..
    The x32 was originally uploaded in a rush by request, so it might be an oversight..
    I will look into it this evening & update..

    Tut updated, If anyone has a spare PC lying around please test & report back as I only tested script & compiled oscam in a virtual Setup..


    Updated 2013-09-02

    Code
    Updated oscam to latest version (8891 at time of uploading)
Included Simplebuild in the script so you can build your own oscam.
Removed proftpd from auto install.
Updated CCcam.channelinfo & CCcam.prio.
Added latest oscam.srvid & oscam.services to the script (oscam.srvid for 0963 only, too many services error with all sats) mainly for People who want to switch to oscam only.
Cleaned up some Syntax errors in LogCleanUp.sh
updated x32 scripts (Few errors pointed out by Fano)
Removed dummy reader from oscam.server (It was causing problems with latest versions of oscam)
changed cccam/oscam restarts, updates & cleanups from 3.56am to 6.56am.

    I installed the 32 bit files this evening on a pc as its hard drive developed bad sectors so it needed a new install.
    Working very well so far .
    Omnikey worked straight away,I didnt have to do any additional configuration .
    Will see how it goes for the next week and post some feedback.

    Updated 2013-09-08

    Code
    Introduced Auto Detection for x86 or x64 OS, the script will now install the correct package based on OS Version (This should eradicate all the wrong version installs)
I have Automated Script even further so no user interaction is needed during the script!  (Start the script, have a cuppa and cccam/oscam is up & running within 5 mins)
revised rc.local so cccam starts 30 seconds after oscam (Sorry Guys, this was missed somewhere along the line while updating package)
Added nightly backup to the script so all your cccam/oscam configs are backed up @ midnight


    Again, anyone who can, Please test & report back as I only tested script & compiled oscam in a virtual Setup..

    Anybody having problems with older setup, please follow these 3 steps
    (This was due to a problem with the old x32-bit setup) All this has been sorted in the current Auto-Install



    confirm that CCcam in files below is the exact same as the CCcam bin name in /usr/local/bin
    it could be CCcam.x86_64 or CCcam.x86
    Chick this in all 3 files below and replace the CCcam in red with the actual bin name



    File 1: rc.local file located @ /etc/rc.local
    oscam should be above cccam so that oscam starts before cccam, Make sure you have "sleep 30" between oscam & cccam
    e.g.


    Code
    sleep 30
/usr/local/bin/oscam -b
sleep 30
/usr/local/bin/[COLOR='#FF0000']CCcam[/COLOR]
exit 0


    Problems with CCcam check scripts


    File 2: CCcamCheck.sh @ /var/script


    Bash
    #!/bin/sh 
process=`ps auxwww | grep [COLOR='#FF0000']CCcam[/COLOR] | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'`
if [ -z '$process' ]; then
echo "Couldn't find CCcam running. Restarting server-binary" >> /var/cccamlog/cccam.check 
echo && date >>/var/cccamlog/cccam.check
/usr/local/bin/[COLOR='#FF0000']CCcam[/COLOR] -d >> /var/cccamlog/CCcam.log & 
else echo "CCcam is still OK!" >> /var/cccamlog/cccam.check 
fi


    File 3: crontab @ /etc/crontab


    Again, check that oscam starts before cccam (see green)


    Code
    59 23 * * * root /var/script/oscam-backup.sh
56 06 * * * root killall [COLOR='#FF0000']CCcam[/COLOR]
56 06 * * * root killall oscam

    i think i missed sleep 30 on cccam:
    #!/bin/sh -e
    #
    # rc.local
    #
    # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
    # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
    # value on error.
    #
    # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
    # bits.
    #
    # By default this script does nothing.
    sleep 30
    /usr/local/bin/CCcam.x86_64
    /usr/local/bin/oscam -b
    exit 0

    Hello,


    I have installed ubuntu, and this automated script. Everything is working ok, but CCcamCheck script does not work. I have tried to "killall CCcam" and wait for 10 minutes, but nothing. Then i tried to manually start the CCcam and cd to /usr/local/bin then type CCcam but CCcam didn't start. What i should to do?


    Regards

    When did you download the script? Today, yesterday, last week?
    See post #192 and confirm that all In red is matching the cccam bin file name on your setup..


    Or post:
    contents of CCcamCheck.sh located @ /var/script
    contents of crontab located @ /etc/crontab
    also post the exact filename of cccam bin file located @ /usr/local/bin/CCcam****


    Also, what happens if you run the script manually from terminal


    Code
    cd /var/script
./CCcamCheck.sh

    Hello thatfellow,


    Thank you for reply. Today i have installed Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS and install CCcam and OSCam from this tutorial on first page(automated script). I have checked the post #192 and all is ok, but still doesn't work. I have tried this command you wrote in terminal, but nothing happend. In /usr/local/bin the name is only CCcam, not CCcam.x86 or CCcam.x86_64.


    Regards

    Thank you for pointing this out..


    I have tested & you are correct m8, there seems to be a problem with the shell interpreter in the script..
    If you remove the:

    Bash
    #!/bin/sh


    from the start of CCcamCheck.sh


    and then run it manually with

    Code
    cd /var/script
./CCcamCheck.sh


    It runs fine but it still will not run from crontab..


    It was missed during tests because I only checked the output to cccam.check which made me think the check script was doing its job..
    I am going to look into this and see where this issue has come from and hopefully have an answer/fix asap
    Just for some peace of mind, I have been testing this setup for a few weeks bombarding cccam with requests and cccam has never crashed.
    It is a very stable setup so don't worry so much about it until I find a solution..

    OK m8, Problem solved!
    The problem was the cccam binary filename which was CCcam in latest script, cccam will not start from crontab with that filename.
    the solution is very simple and involves 4 steps


    Step 1: rename CCcam to cccam_2.1.3 (N.B. lower case "cccam_2.1.3")

    Code
    mv /usr/local/bin/[COLOR='#FFA500']CCcam[/COLOR] /usr/local/bin/[COLOR='#FF0000']cccam_2.1.3[/COLOR]


    Make this whatever filename your current cccam binary @ /usr/local/bin has




    Step 2: Update rc.local @ /etc/rc.local (N.B. lower case "cccam_2.1.3")


    Code
    sleep 30
/usr/local/bin/oscam -b
sleep 30
/usr/local/bin/[COLOR='#FF0000']cccam_2.1.3[/COLOR]
exit 0




    Step 3: Update crontab @ /etc/crontab (N.B. lower case "cccam_2.1.3")
    (also, confirm that oscam is starting before cccam)


    Code
    59 23 * * * root /var/script/oscam-backup.sh
57 06 * * * root killall [COLOR='#FF0000']cccam_2.1.3[/COLOR]
57 06 * * * root killall oscam
57 06 * * * root /var/script/configupdate.sh >> /var/cccamlog/configupdate.log
57 06 * * * root /var/script/keyupdater.sh
[COLOR='#FF0000']58 06[/COLOR] * * * root /usr/local/bin/oscam -b
[COLOR='#FF0000']59 06[/COLOR] * * * root /usr/local/bin/[COLOR='#FF0000']cccam_2.1.3[/COLOR]
*/5 * * * * root /var/script/CCcamCheck.sh
*/5 * * * * root /var/script/OscamCheck.sh
03 07 * * 6 root /var/script/LogCleanUp.sh >> /var/cccamlog/CleanUp.log




    Step 4: Update Check script @ /var/script/CCcamCheck.sh (N.B. lower case "cccam_2.1.3")


    Bash
    #!/bin/sh 
process=`ps auxwww | grep [COLOR='#FF0000']cccam_2.1.3[/COLOR] | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'`
if [ -z '$process' ]; then
echo "Couldn't find CCcam running. Restarting server-binary" >> /var/cccamlog/cccam.check 
echo && date >>/var/cccamlog/cccam.check
/usr/local/bin/[COLOR='#FF0000']cccam_2.1.3[/COLOR] -d >> /var/cccamlog/CCcam.log & 
else echo "CCcam is still OK!" >> /var/cccamlog/cccam.check 
fi

    Scripts Cleaned & Updated 2013-09-14

    Code
    Updated oscam to latest #8917 at time of upload
Removed the need to edit the script, so its just a matter of copying the install pack to /tmp, chmod the script & run
Renamed cccam binary to cccam_2.1.3 to avoid crontab issues with the cccam checkscript (Thank you YamaR6 for pointing this out)
