Please tell me what panel you are using for your VPS?

Hi Arsalan,
Since day one I have had issues with the video in the meantime I have moved to my own VPS and installed all the required FFMPEG on PHP7.2.31 etc.
What happens is that the software "finds" the ffmpeg path. On the site video is available.
You select the video you want to post. You select upload and the progress bar shows upload however the conversion progress bar remains at "01%" then a green bar appears on top indicating that the video has been successfully uploaded.
Shortly a preview will be shown of the uploaded video.
However when you select play, nothing happens and then in the left top corner the error message will appear.
I have checked the datafile where this file would be stored and find nothing which means that the file has not been uploaded by the software. Also if I physically upload the video manually it still does not work.
I have now uploaded the very latest premium-social-network-52 version which i have uploaded on the server.
Then I connected the mys@l and datafile which populated the whole site. All componets except the video57 is working. I have disabled all components only using the video but still same problem.
I have now turned the video component off. I have gone through all the suggestions made but to avail.
If you are interested I can send you admin access to assist with the investigation.
Thanks
Mark

@Mark, You said you checked folder but you wasn't able to find anything that means you didn't upload or migrated the ossn_data folder correctly.

Do you able to upload new videos?

Hi Z
can you supply me with an email and I will send you access to the server etc for you to investigate this as I am getting no luck.
Thanks
Mark

What still makes me wonder:
In the beginning you said you migrated your complete site.
And since you were able to upload and play videos with your former site without problems there MUST be videos in the data directory.

Now you say: "I checked the data folder and could not find anything in the sub directory Objects that matches the video. Over 10k folders."

So, either you didn't really migrate correctly or you did not search correctly.

Talking about my site, running a find . -name "*mp4*" in the ossn_data/object directory gives

./645/video/file/5a970d2f94fa88d16dd245a161caa568.mp4

and if your migration is okay, you should see a lot of lines like that. So please verify again.

Hello Mark,
my first candidate to check would be ffmpeg, because there are several versions around, some not working at all, some are missing necessary codecs, etc...
So, the idea is running ffmpeg manually from the command line the same way as Ossn would do.
Let's use a simple input video for testing,
I'd recommend to use the file video.mp4 which comes with the VideoBackground component.
So unzip that component locally and upload video.mp4 to your home directory on the server ...
(/home/mark) or where ever it is located.
Next, login via ssh, proceed to your home directory and run ls -l to verify that video.mp4 is there.
Now, try converting video.mp4 manually with the command

/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg -i ./video.mp4 -vcodec libx264 -profile:v baseline -level 3 outfile.mp4

If everything is running smoothly, you should see the newly created file outfile.mp4 short time later,
if not, you may get any kind of error messages which would be of interest.

Morning Z
Yes that is the issue, the script is not actively creating the folder. I have checked the php scripts and find no fault. It seems that there is a server process that is causing this error. I am trouble shooting the server and when fault is found will post the results.
Thank for you assistance
Stay safe!

Hmm,
I thought I just explained the mechanism.
If you see that number (in my example 645) in the url, there should be a corresponding subdirectory 645 in the objects directory, too. If not, it couldn't be created for some reason and you should find something helpful in your error_log
