How to Install the server on Linux

First of all install the following dependency as they may be required:
  1. yum install seamonkey-nspr.i386
  2. yum install compat-libstdc++-33.i386
  3. yum install libstdc++.so.5

Then

  1. Log in as a root user (required to install Flash Media Server).
  2. Locate the installation file, FlashMediaServer3.tar.gz.
  3. Open a shell window and switch to the directory with the installation file.
  4. Untar the installation file:

i. tar -xzf FlashMediaServer3.tar.gz

  1. A directory with the installation program is created.
  2. At the shell prompt, enter cd and navigate to the directory created in step 5.
  3. Start the installation program with the following command:

i. ./installFMS

  1. The installation program starts and displays a welcome message.
  2. Press Enter to start the installation.
  3. By default, Flash Media Server is installed to the /opt/adobe/fms directory.
  4. Follow the installation instructions on your screen.
  5. Enter a user for Flash Media Server processes to run as. The default is the “nobody” user. (The user you select is also the owner of the Flash Media Server files.)
  6. You will be asked to enter a serial numberYou can leave it blank
  7. The installation is complete. If you configured it to start automatically, the Flash Media Server service starts.
  8. To start the server manually enter

i. ./fmsmgr server fms start.

that's all

The only problem I went into was that libfms.so.1 was not in the file path so the command ./fmsadmin ?console was giving error. THen I copied the file to the /usr/lib directory and it worked.
