replace all the remaining calls to './certbot-auto' to 'certbot' - there should be three of them.ĭon't worry if you mess this up that's why we created a backup! Once you're done, you can check that your diff looks like mine:

#Install jitsi ubuntu 20.04 install#

remove the call to install certbot-auto, and all references to $CRON_FILE (lines 28-38, 78, 99 and 103-104 in my version) # 2. Sudo vim /usr/share/jitsi-meet/scripts/install-letsencrypt-cert.sh Sudo cp /usr/share/jitsi-meet/scripts/install-letsencrypt-cert.sh ~/install-letsencypt-cert.sh.bak We still want to use that script instead of calling certbot ourselves because the script also sets up a post-renewal hook for the turnserver.įirst, install certbot from the Ubuntu repositories: The script metioned there uses certbot-auto, which is not supported on Ubuntu 20.04, so we're going to modify the script a little to make it work. Here our instructions diverge from the Jitsi quick-install guide. Generate an SSL certificate with Let's Encrypt We'll set up a real SSL cert with Let's Encrypt in the next step. Then it'll ask about an SSL certificate pick 'Generate a new self-signed certificate'. The installer will ask you for the hostname of your Jitsi Meet instance set that to the same FQDN you entered earlier. # Retrieve the latest package versions across all repositories Install the Jitsi Meet packages # Ensure support is available for apt repositories served via HTTPS Open 80/TCP, 443/TCP and 10000/UDP on your firewall, making sure those ports are forwarded to your Pi if it's behind a NAT.

Wget -qO - | sudo apt-key add - Open ports in your firewall I assume you already have an FQDN set up in DNS that you want to use for this Jitsi install - suppose that's .įirst, change the hostname on the machine to match that:Įcho 'deb stable/ ' | sudo tee /etc/apt//jitsi-stable.list In slightly more detail: Set up your Fully-Qualified Domain Name Generally speaking this means you'll need to follow the instructions at, but stop before the Let's Encrypt certificate step.

If you're not familiar with how to get started writing that disk image to a microSD card there's a tutorial you can follow at for this step. You'll want to set that up the same way you would any other distribution for a Pi, and set yourself up for SSH access if you don't have a conveniently-placed keyboard connected to your Pi.

The default username and password on that are both 'ubuntu' it will prompt you to set a new password on first login. You can get this from - I used the 64-bit image for Raspberry Pi 4. This guide assumes you already have a DNS name set up with an A record pointing to the public IP address of your Raspberry Pi. I also tried to use distribution packages instead of manually downloading individual deb files throughout. I used Ubuntu 20.04 because I'm more familiar with Ubuntu than with Raspbian, and using an arm64 OS makes the setup easier than on armhf. I did this because I'd rather set up Jitsi Meet on a Raspberry Pi I already own than add a dedicated VPS (and pay AWS's bandwidth costs) just for that. The biggest difference is this is designed to work with a Pi running Ubuntu Server 20.04 instead of Raspbian. It is adapted from Jitsi's quick install guide and the Jitsi on ARM guide written by crouchingtigerhiddenadam. This guide helps you host your own Jitsi server on a Raspberry Pi 4B.
