Build a DVB-I Server

(This guide assumes some Linux experience, exact system directories, package names and system maintenance commands may vary between Linux distributions)

System libraries and modules

Install latest PHP 8 (includes Apache 2)

sudo apt install php8.3

Configure PHP to allow execution in user directories

Edit /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php8.3.conf to comment out the restrictions on PHP in user directories

# To re-enable php in user directories comment the following lines
# (from <IfModule ...> to </IfModule>.) Do NOT set it to On as it
# prevents .htaccess files from disabling it.
# <IfModule mod_userdir.c>
#  <Directory /home/*/public_html>
#   php_admin_value engine Off
#  </Directory>
# </IfModule>

Install the PHP SimpleXML library

sudo apt-get install php-xml

Restart apache

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Install DVB-I Reference

Load the reference client into the Apache root directory

git clone https://github.com/DVBProject/DVB-I-Reference-Client ~/dvbi/
sudo ln -s ~/dvbi  /var/www/html/MyDVBi

Make sure Apache has access to ~/dvbi/ Note that, you could also create a custom Apache site in /etc/apache2/sites-available and enable it with a2ensite.

Update files to refer to local endpoints

In /var/www/html/frontend/configuration.js, change the INSTALL_LOCATION to the fully qualified URL to your service list registry, i.e. var INSTALL_LOCATION = "http://my-www-host/MyDVBi";. Do not include the trailing slash.

In /var/www/html/backend/configuration.php, change the $install_location to the same fully qualified URL to your service list registry, i.e. $install_location = "http://my-www-host/MyDVBi";. Do not include the trailing slash.
