Slash in room name is not working

Install & Config
1

I’m using per_room_max_participants plugin to limit how many users can participate in a subdomain room. This is working properly when I test it using a Chrome browser like this: https://mydomain.com/test/someroom

But when I try to use it programmatically like this:

room = connection.initJitsiConference("test/someroom", options);

The connection is not established. When I go to the same room with Chrome browser, I can’t see this new user in that same room.

I think that the problem could be in nginx routing? Or what could be the problem? I have websocket enabled if that helps.

I just checked the jicofo.log files. And there was this error.

We use the / as a convention for tenants, and since it also has implications when used in a URL you shouldn’t use rooms with it.

4

Check your config.js https://domain.com/config.js vs https://domain.com/tenant/config.js

5

I just checked. Only difference is this:

config.js

var subdir = '';
var subdomain = '';

test/config.js

var subdir = 'test/';
var subdomain = 'test.';
6

Which changes the params that you pass to lib-jitsi-meet. Its is those params changed not adding a slash in the room name is the difference when using tenant for the room.

Ok. So I should somehow alter those values when using a slash in room name? I currently have this setup, where rooms can be in these formats:

  • room
  • sub/room
8

Yes. Slash is not allowed char for xmpp jids.
