Kaltura Install on Plesk / Media Temple DV3.5 apachectl error

Question

Hello All,

Some pain today as with everything new and exciting. I am attempting to install Kaltura CE on a subdomain on my Media Temple DV runnning plesk 8.6.0. I get to a step that asks for my apachectl path and I enter correctly but keep getting errors as listed below. I do know this is meant to be on a dedicated box but as with everything I am sure there is a way to make it work.

> /usr/sbin/apachectl

The path you inserted is not valid. Please try again.
The full pathname to your Apache apachectl/apache2ctl file:
Examples:
/usr/bin/apachectl
/usr/bin/apache2ctl
/opt/lampp/bin/apachectl
sh: /which: No such file or directory
sh: /which: No such file or directory
> 

As always, any and all help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

After much pain and hours of trying to make something work that really cannot work. I set up a linode.com box using Ubuntu 10.0.4 and installed kaltura following the directions from kaltura.org. Getting this to work would involve modifying your my.conf file to support lower_case_table_names = 1 which will render Plesk unusable. My recommendations for installing Kaltura would be to follow the step by step instructions using the patched xampp file they provide you with.
