Server configuration verification
Case 1: HTTP
Moving to project at PF.Base/ynchat through "cd" command (Use Terminal)
sh runcheck.sh start (start socket 9009)
sh runcheck.sh status ( verify whether it runs or not)
Case 2: HTTPS
You need to set up Stunnel
Require: - we make tutorial base on CentOS repository, if your server is other environment, please check https://www.stunnel.org/index.html for more information. For more infomaton about configuration of Stunnel, please following https://www.stunnel.org/static/stunnel.html
Steps: Required: Log in into SSH root and perform the below steps 01. Install Stunnel by yum with command: "yum install stunnel" 02. After install successfully, create configuration file and put in /etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf (You can put other place for your preferences) 03. Details of configuration file is below: sslVersion = all options = NO_SSLv2 cert = path/to/cert_file CApath = path/to/folder_ssl CAfile = path/to/cacert_file key = path/to/key_file socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 debug = 7 output = /var/log/stunnel.log [websocket] accept = which getting from AdminCP > Apps > Social Chat > Settings > Stunnel Port> connect = which getting from AdminCP > Apps > Social Chat > Settings > Web Socket Port> TIMEOUTclose = 0 04. Execute command "stunnel /etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf" Congratulations! You finished the setup process.
Specific case as site is HTTPS (SSL) but through CloudFlare or hidden domain IP
You can verify whether it's through CloudFlare or not with tool https://network-tools.com/
DNS servers: "isla.ns.cloudflare.com" and "todd.ns.cloudflare.com"
(CloudFlare)
I supposed that your domain is through Cloudflare so let us proceed below
Create a sub domain as "chat.yourdomain" and point to your main server IP
Ex: chat.phpfox4templatesdemo.younetco.com (Place it in Social Chat configuration - phpFox site)
Check Port
Change "xxx" below to the port needed to verify (Ex: 9009 as Socket and 9020 as Stunnel - they're default settings in back-end of Social Chat)
netstat -plunt | grep xxx
Open/Save Firewall
Its purpose is for clients to connect to server on those ports to chat each other
# open ports
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 9009 --syn -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 9020 --syn -j ACCEPT
# save firewall
service iptables save
or
iptables-save
Settings of Social Chat app
AdminCP >> Apps >> Installed >> Social Chat >> Settings >> Your Server IP public
IP address if No SSL
Domain name if SSL
Nginx server configuration (if you use Nginx server)
location ~* ^/PF.Base/module/ynchat/api.php/(.*) {
try_files $uri /PF.Base/module/ynchat/api.php;
}
